Over the decades, we’ve heard standout Bond songs but the tunes that don't exist in 007 canon are arguably just as interesting as the ones that do and in some cases the alternate tunes may have been the better choice. This applies particularly to Radiohead’s "Man of War" which was unfortunately performed live before the movie was made (exclusion criterion) and "Spectre", which finally came a little too late to be considered. Director Sam Mendes said it was "an utter nightmare ... we had this beautiful song and we weren't able to use it." There is a debate going on whether the tracks by Noel Gallagher and Lana Del Rey were officially sent to the producers and rejected by them. But it is proven that both were interested in doing a Bond song and that they were convinced these tracks would fit. The bonos track at the end is the original demo of Goldeneye, written and performed by Bono and The Edge.
