We Have All the Time in the World

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"We Have All The Time In The World" is a James Bond theme and popular song performed by Louis Armstrong. It was written by John Barry (music) and Hal David (lyrics), and used as a secondary theme for the 1969 James Bond film On Her Majesty's Secret Service; the title sequence theme being "On Her Majesty's Secret Service", an instrumental theme also written by Barry. The title, "We Have All The Time In The World", is taken from James Bond's final words in both the original novel and the movie, spoken after the murder of his wife.

In 2005 a BBC survey concluded that the song was the third most popular song to be performed at a wedding [1].

Artists that have covered "We Have All the Time in the World" include My Bloody Valentine, Iggy Pop, Fun Lovin' Criminals, Vic Damone, Amalia Grè and Tindersticks.

Iggy Pop's cover of this song is played during the end credits of the movie "The Jacket". Coincidentally the movie also stars Daniel Craig, who is the 6th actor to portray Bond.
