Alicia KeysAlicia Keys just got done recording "Another Way to Die," the new theme song for the latest Bond film, "Quantum of Solace." But her real ambition?

"I think I can be the next Bond girl," the singer and actress laughed when we caught up with her recently at the Toronto Film Festival.

For now, of course, Keys will have to settle for co-creating with White Stripes frontman Jack White the kick-ass opening number in "Solace," which I cannot mention without also mentioning that it's the worst movie title in history.

Jack White Praises Alicia Keys's 'Electric Energy' On 'Quantum Of Solace' Theme

Posted 8/21/08 3:04 pm EST by in News


'Virulents'As we reported last month, White Stripes frontman Jack White has joined forces with singing sensation Alicia Keys to bring to life the theme song for the upcoming Bond flick, "Quantum of Solace." Titled “Another Way To Die,” the track will feature Keyes along with White, who pulls triple-duty as writer, producer and drummer on the collaboration that will mark the first duet in Bond history, according to the studio.

Now White is speaking out about the collaboration, stating: “After a couple of years of wanting to collaborate with Alicia Keys, it took James Bond himself to finally make it happen. Alicia put some electric energy into her breath that cemented itself into the magnetic tape. Very inspiring to watch. It gave me a new voice, and I wasn't myself anymore. I drummed for her voice and she mimicked the guitar tones, then we joined our voices and screamed and moaned about these characters in the film and their isolation, having no one to trust, not even themselves. Maybe we became them for a few minutes." Read More...
