- Regular Urban Survivors, a 1996 album by the British rock band Terrorvision featured sleeve artwork that was very reminiscent of spy movies in general, and Bond in particular. It featured a painted cover, depicting the band members in a montage of Bond-like poses, and included Tropical locales, a man rappelling from the underside of a Navy helicopter, and a car very close to an Aston Martin in appearance crashing off a mountaintop road. The album also featured production credits styled to look like movie credits, and mocked-up 'movie' stills of the band in numerous action-packed poses. The song titles and lyrics do not always continue the Bond theme, though Enteralterego, the first track, is based on a 'spy theme' type riff, and features lyrics about bombs and cutting differently coloured wires. A second song on the album, Bad Actress, was considered by some critics to sound like a typical Bond-theme, complete with string arrangements and a suitably bombastic climax.
- Licensed to Ill is an album by the Beastie Boys.
- "Weird Al" Yankovic released a song called "Spy Hard" that is a similar to the songs "Goldfinger" and "Thunderball" and the background clip that is similar to the background clip of "On Her Majesty's Secret Service". This was the title theme for the film of the same name (see Films section).
- James Bond parody of It Might Be You, the song's title is in the same title of the song. The music video featured Bond is in a fantasy world, Bond is lying on the grass and a young woman played by actress Cameron Diaz coming to Bond, Bond and the young woman fall in love and met in Paris, Bond kissed the young woman, Bond end up in a pink background, and scenes from Die Another Day.

Famous quotes containing the word music:
“The train was crammed, the heat stifling. We feel out of sorts, but do not quite know if we are hungry or drowsy. But when we have fed and slept, life will regain its looks, and the American instruments will make music in the merry cafe described by our friend Lange. And then, sometime later, we die.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
“My love shall hear the music of my hounds.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
