Chris Cornell Will Sing New Bond Theme

Rumours have it that Cornell, Chris Cornell will sing the theme song in the coming brand new Bond outing next year (Casino Royale). Apparently the information comes from a Finnish newspaper(!). I don't know why a Finnish paper is the main source. I can't think of any other occassion where the world has been relying on fresh info from Finland?! Hmmm... anyway, I just luuuurv the choice of singer and composer. If Mr. Cornell of Soundgarden and Audioslave fame is the actual choice, he is furthermore the first male performer since.... tadaaa... my favorite Norwegian wizards of beautiful and bittersweet sweeping melodramatic pop music penned and performed the better than average song from 1987 "The Living Daylights". The first of two Bond movies with Britton Timothy Dalton in the lead role. He got a bit of a bashing for his performance poor old Tim. Completely unfair if you ask me.
