"I was a little hesitant at first to be involved with the theme song for Skyfall," Adele said in a recent statement. "There's a lot of instant spotlight and pressure when it comes to a Bond song. But I fell in love with the script and Paul had some great ideas for the track and it ended up being a bit of a no brainer to do it in the end."
Finishing, the record breaking singer added: "It was also a lot of fun writing to a brief, something I've never done, which made it exciting. When we recorded the strings it was one of the proudest moments of my life. I’ll be backcombing my hair when I'm 60 telling people I was a Bond girl back in the day I'm sure!"
'Skyfall' is set to be released on October 26th.
