You Know My Name (4:00)
From Carry On and 11 other releases
“You Know My Name,” performed by Chris Cornell, is the theme song to the 2006 James Bond film Casino Royale. Cornell wrote it jointly with David Arnold, the soundtrack’s composer. The track was leaked onto the Internet on September 20, 2006. It was the first Bond theme to be sung by a male vocalist since 1987’s The Living Daylights and is the first Bond theme since 1965’s Thunderball to be sung by a male soloist.
It is also the first since “All Time High” (the 1983 theme to Octopussy) not to feature its film’s title in the lyrics. (Dr. No, From Russia with Love and On Her Majesty’s Secret Service featured instrumental songs in their openings.) It was later included on Cornell’s second solo album, Carry On.

Chris Cornell – You Know My Name
Send ‘You Know My Name’ Ringtone to Cell
If you take a life do you know what you'll give?
Odds are you won't like what it is
When the storm arrives would you be seen with me
By the merciless eyes I've deceived?
Chris Cornell
