By calling the next James Bond film Quantum of Solace, the producers are announcing their intention to stay with the dark-flirting, psychological-emotional realism that began with Casino Royale. It will be no big deal at all to write a main credits song for this — just ignore the title. Who cares if the singer literally belts out the words “quantum of solace”? Better this than something in the vein of Goldeneye or Octopussy or whatever. It’s a title that says “if you’re looking for a check-your-brain-at-the-door thriller, look elsewhere.”
