Spectre: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack is the soundtrack album to the 24th James Bond film of the same name. Released by Universal Music Classics on October 23, 2015 in the United Kingdom and on November 6, 2015 in the United States, the music was composed by Thomas Newman, who previously composed the soundtrack of 23rd Bond's film Skyfall, making him the third composer after John Barry and David Arnold (and the first non-British composer) to score more than one film in the series. The film's theme song "Writing's on the Wall" performed by Sam Smith is the only one of the four themes that doesn't feature the title of its film.[1] It is also the third song after "You Know My Name" (2006) and "Skyfall" (2012) that did not appear on the film's official soundtrack album.

Development

Thomas Newman returned as Spectre's composer.[2] Rather than composing the score once the film had moved into post-production, Newman worked during filming.[3] The theatrical trailer released in July 2015 contained a rendition of John Barry's On Her Majesty's Secret Service theme.[4][5] Mendes revealed that the final film would have more than one hundred minutes of music.[6]

In September 2015 it was announced that Sam Smith and regular collaborator Jimmy Napes had written the film's title theme, "Writing's on the Wall", with Smith performing it for the film.[7] The song was released later that month where it received mixed reviews from critics and fans, particularly in comparison to Adele's "Skyfall".[8][9][10] It became the first Bond theme to reach number one in the UK Singles Chart.[11]
