ALL TIME HIGH (OCTOPUSSY, 1983)

Roger Moore's starrer as the famous Agent 007 in Octopussy gets a chic movie theme via Rita Coolidge's wonderful rendition of All Time High. In the movie, Bond's on the mission to stop jewel smugglers and possible nuclear attacks on NATO. Pure Bond style.


ALL TIME HIGH
sung by: Rita Coolidge


All I wanted was a sweet distraction for an hour or two
Had no intention to do the things we’ve done
Funny how it always goes with love, when you don’t look, you find
But then we’re two of a kind, we move as one

We’re an all time high
We’ll change all that’s gone before
Doing so much more than falling in love
On an all time high
We’ll take on the world and wait
So hold on tight, let the flight begin

I don’t want to waste a waking moment; I don’t want to sleep
I’m in so strong and so deep, and so are you
In my time I’ve said these words before, but now I realize
My heart was telling me lies, for you they’re true

We’re an all time high
We’ll change all that’s gone before
Doing so much more than falling in love
On an all time high
We’ll take on the world and wait
So hold on tight, let the flight begin
So hold on tight, let the flight begin
We’re an all time high
