Welcome to BOTB round 15! The 12th James Bond flick is For Your Eyes Only and the fifth to star Sir Roger Moore as 007. Sheena Easton performed the 1981 theme song. I remember absolutely falling in love with her voice, just beautiful! There weren’t a lot of English vocal covers listed on my go-to site that I was interested in which left me to scroll through the possibilities on YouTube and that wasn’t much better. In the end, I found two female singers with a similar style as Sheena and decided to put these ladies in a face off.
The first contender is Suzanne O’Donnell. I really don’t know much about this singer, other than she enjoys uploading her cover songs to YouTube. Listen to see if Suzanne gets your vote!
The second contender is Sabine Heil, a German singer. Although, she has a web presence I found limited info but it seems she is a recorded artist. Kindly, listen to Sabine now to see if you prefer her over the previous artist!
You don’t have to be a James Bond fan or even know who Sheena Easton is or familiar with the For Your Eyes Only. All you need is your two ears and opinion to tell me which singer you like. There’s no wrong way to vote, except a no-vote. It’s that simple!
Just tell me in comments, who gets your vote, Suzanne or Sabine, and if you want you can go into little or great detail as to why you picked your artist.
