What is the only James Bond theme song to reach No. 1 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100? Explained

The theme songs of James Bond movies have featured renowned recording artists such as Shirley Bassey, Carly Simon, Paul McCartney, and Madonna. Carly Simon’s “Nobody Does It Better” and Paul McCartney and Wings’ “Live and Let Die” nearly topped the U.S. Billboard chart, both peaking at No. 2 on the Billboard Hot 100. It wasn’t until 1985 that a Bond theme song finally reached the top spot in the United States, achieved by Duran Duran with their hit “A View to a Kill,” the theme song from the film starring Roger Moore as James Bond.
