Louis Armstrong’s contribution to the 007 canon is its most non-Bond sounding track. Therein lies its charm: it stands out because it is unlike any other tune associated with the world’s favourite spy.

John Barry composed the music and Hal David wrote the lyrics for "We Have All The Time In The World". The film for which it was created starred George Lazenby portraying 007 as Sean Connery had decided not to appear in the sixth instalment of the Bond movies.

Armstrong’s song re-surfaced in a powerful scene during the 2021 motion picture ‘No Time To Die’. While it failed to dent the charts in either the U.S.A. or Britain when initially released in 1969, the single did reach #3 when re-issued in the latter in 1994.
