The Postmarks - you only live twice cover, 2008

"You Only Live Twice" is the theme song to the 1967 James Bond film of the same name from its accompanying soundtrack album. It was written by Leslie Bricusse with music by veteran Bond film composer John Barry, and performed by Nancy Sinatra. It is widely recognised for its striking opening bars, featuring a simple 2-bar theme in the high octaves of the violins and lush harmonies from French horns (featuring a melody originally from Alexander Tcherepnin’s “First Piano Concerto (op. 12)"), and is considered by some among the best Bond film songs. Shortly after Barry's production, Sinatra's producer Lee Hazlewood released a more guitar-based single version."
