    Adele has finally confirmed on her Twitter feed that she's recorded the song.

    Those GQ covers are pretty cool.

    I've heard it! Or at least a small portion of it.

    I'm not sure how long this will stay up, but someone uploaded a preview of the song here

    It sounds so awesome! Even has a hint of the Bond theme.

    I am very excited that Adele is doing the new Bond theme. She does kind of remind me of the woman who sung Goldfinger, so maybe we will get a more jazzed/blsey sounding theme than what we've had in the past.

    I can actually hear a little bit of "Goldfinger" in this clip. This excites me even more.

    It was indeed a bit of the song, but it's been taken down now!

    There's some links that claim to be the full song. One is just the ninety second preview edited out to 3 minutes (with a odd piano intro).

    Heard the sample HERE. Apparently, the full theme's going to be released officially on Friday.

    Really psyched for it--it truly invokes the classic themes of the Connery era, but with a "modern" vibe. Rather like the better Pierce Brosnan themes.

    Is it just me, or is she kind of invoking...Amy Winehouse?

    If you live in America, the theme will actually be released on Thursday night.

    Hmm. No Thomas Newman credit on the recording sheet - probably not going to hear quotes from it in the score like Tomorrow Never Dies (well, from the real song) or Casino Royale, then.
