About Ohmms Soundtrack

The soundtrack for On Her Majesty's Secret Service is usually cited by critics as the best score of the series. It was composed, arranged and conducted by John Barry; it was his fifth successive Bond film.

What's interesting

It must have been a musicians nightmare to to write a theme song containing the title On Her Majesty's Secret Service after a failed attempt resulted in a return to the tradition of the first two Bond films with an instrumental opening theme. John Barry also composed the love song We Have All the Time in the World, with lyrics by Burt Bacharach's regular lyricist Hal David, sung by Louis Armstrong Barry recalled Armstrong was very ill, but recorded the song in one take. The song was re-released in 1994, achieving the number three position during a 13-week spell in the UK charts.
