The Spy Who Loved Me

The Spy Who Loved Me was released in 1977. The theme song, Nobody Does It Better (First to not have the title of the movie, first to be about Bond and not the villian), was sung by Carly Simon. It was sung in a cabaret version (which sounds like: no BODY doz it betta, mekes mi fiil sad fo ze rest) in the end credits.
