Nobody seems to be sure if it's real or what the actual title is! We'll know all any day now!

ADELE’S “SKYFALL,” OFFICIAL THEME SONG TO LATEST JAMES BOND 007 FEATURE SKYFALL™, PREMIERES AT 0:07 BST VIA ADELE.TV ON OCTOBER 5

“SKYFALL” RELEASE TO COINCIDE WITH 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF JAMES BOND 007

AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER GLOBALLY ON iTUNES TODAY

(October 1, 2012; Columbia Records; New York, NY) – Adele will premiere her latest recording “Skyfall,” the official theme song to the upcoming 007 adventure of the same name, globally via her official site (www.Adele.tv) on Friday October 5th at 0:07 BST/London time (7:07pm EST on October 4th), the track will be available to purchase as a download immediately after this premiere. The track is available for pre-order at iTunes starting today (http://smarturl.it/AdeleSkyfall). October 5th marks the 50th anniversary of the release of Dr. No, and thus the James Bond film franchise, and will be celebrated as Global James Bond Day.

After reading the script for the film, Adele enlisted Paul Epworth to co-write and produce the theme song to “Skyfall™.” Adele admits, “I was a little hesitant at first to be involved with the theme song for Skyfall. There's a lot of instant spotlight and pressure when it comes to a Bond song. But I fell in love with the script and Paul had some great ideas for the track and it ended up being a bit of a no brainer to do it in the end. It was also a lot of fun writing to a brief, something I've never done which made it exciting. When we recorded the strings, it was one of the proudest moments of my life. I’ll be back combing my hair when I'm 60 telling people I was a Bond girl back in the day I'm sure!” Recorded at Abbey Road Studios in London, “Skyfall” features the lush accompaniment of a 77-piece orchestra.

“Skyfall” is the first recording by Adele since releasing her massively successful sophomore album 21 in early 2011. To date 21 has sold over 24 million albums worldwide and garnered Adele 6 Grammy Awards, 2 BRIT Awards and 2 Ivor Novello Awards. 21 is the biggest selling album of both 2011 and 2012.

“Skyfall,” the movie, will be released on October 26, 2012 in the UK and on November 9, 2012 in the U.S.

About SKYFALL™
Daniel Craig is back as Ian Fleming’s James Bond 007 in SKYFALL™, the 23rd adventure in the longest-running film franchise of all time. In SKYFALL, Bond’s loyalty to M is tested as her past comes back to haunt her. As MI6 comes under attack, 007 must track down and destroy the threat, no matter how personal the cost. The film is from Albert R. Broccoli’s EON Productions, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios, and Sony Pictures Entertainment. Directed by Sam Mendes. Produced by Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli. Written by Neal Purvis & Robert Wade and John Logan.

Some bint was murdering "Someone Like You" on Saturday in the shopping mall. I wanted to punch her.

This track had better be good. I'm so bored of Adele.

Are you sure it wasn't just the Brits performance video airing somewhere? The amount of bum notes in that performance is shocking, but everyone labels it "flawless".

And yeah, there's a lot of expectation for this. I have a feeling it's going to be good though. I want a huge string-drenched 60s style ballad!

Sounds a bit disappointing. I *love* the classic Bond theme parts, but the actual song melody seems very unremarkable. It doesn't sound very dramatic either. I hope it builds to a good climax.

Absolutely! When you compare her to Adele, it's a bit depressing really.

The preview doesn't do much for me either. Where's the drama?

I know. It's so languid, like it's threatening to take off, but never does. I really hope it gets a lot more dramatic than that.

I thoroughly loved the snippet! Unremarkable or not, this clearly has the best Bond TUNE since “The World Is Not Enough"

Hmm, I don't really rate "The World Is Not Enough". It sounds rather dated now. Really cheesy production. The best Bond songs should sound timeless.

I actually really liked Jack White and Alicia Keys effort. It was so dramatic and wild. Sheryl Crow's "Tomorrow Never Dies" is the last great one for me. So classic and timeless sounding, with a huge melody.

Not disappointed at all! It has drama.
I expected something soft-sounding from her anyway.

Anastasia loves it, so that pretty much confirms what a disappointment it is.

Or perhaps I can't understand all the multiple layers and complex, hidden meanings.
