Five Soundtrack Moments Where I Sing The Sound Effects

1.  Whisper Who Dares, Live and Let Die:

At 1:07, someone on FDR Drive honks their horn three times.  I sing this part.

2.  GoldenEye, GoldenEye:

At 2:07 on the soundtrack version of the title song, I make a "bang" noise.  This is because in the film, there's a gunshot during Danny Kleinman's titles.

3.  Bond Arrives In Rio, Moonraker:

At 0:26, one of the extravangant cars in Rio fires off one of those comedy horns that people used to have on their Capris.  I sing the four notes.

4.  Escape From Piz Gloria, On Her Majesty's Secret Service:

At 0:37, there's a brief lull in John Barry's score, which I fill by going "wee-wa, wee-wa", like the Piz Gloria siren.

5.  Never Say Never Again, Never Say Never Again:

As Lani Hall sings "you've got all the moves" at 1:46, I make the whistling noise of that frisbee thing Bond flings in the titles.
