Pop sensation 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 (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.
Opening
across the Philippines on Oct. 31, “Skyfall” is distributed by Columbia
Pictures, local office of Sony Pictures Releasing International. Visit www.columbiapictures.com.ph
