Alternate lyrics:

"Diamonds are forever
I can taste the satisfaction,
flawless physical attraction,
bitter cold, icy fresh
till they rest on the flesh they crave for..."

Still tame by 2026 standards, but maybe I can get a little of Saltzman's point.

The good folks at #LaLaLandRecords have released the 55th Anniversary edition of the #DiamondsAreForever soundtrack.

I had heard that co-producer Harry Saltzman didn't like the theme tune, claiming it was "too dirty." (Well, for 1971, anyway.)

Obviously, I get the symbolism of the song but, his assessment seemed unwarranted.

The new release contains an alternate version sung by Shirley Bassey, inlcuding the lyrics

(2/2) Almost simultaneously, LLLR put out a lavish 3CD release of Carmine Coppola's complete score, adding a wealth of alternate tracks as well as CC's takes on Rota's immortal Godfather themes. I have still to get ahold of it 😊 but just by the track list, I am confident this one will balance out the source music that spoiled the 1990 soundtrack album to my ears.
