Launch Radioに語ったところによると[Blabbermouth]、
「(007の主題歌は)Paul McCartneyもやったし、Tom Jonesもやった、そして今はこの俺…そして世間はそれを知らないかもしれない。
でも俺はTom Jonesの大ファンでもあるからな。彼はすごいシンガーだよ。
俺は（Tom Jonesが主題歌を歌った）「007サンダーボール作戦」のサントラを最近まで聴いたことがなかったんだ。1965年とか俺が赤ん坊のときの映画だが、凄い歌なんだ。間違いなく大いなる歴史の一部となるべき歌だよ！」
ということ。
Chrisは現在、2007年発売予定のソロ作品のレコーディング中。
「007カジノ・ロワイヤル」は日本でもこの秋、「東京国際シネシティ フェスティバル2006」の招待作品として上映される。
☆ChrisがTom Jonesファンてちょっと笑えます…

Cornell Spies on Paul McCartney, Tom Jones

Being asked to do the theme song for a James Bond movie is both a great honor and responsibility. "The Bond soundtrack song is different than any other movie you're going to write a song for, because it's steeped in lore. It's part of the tradition of the franchise," says Chris Cornell, who has the distinction of doing 'You Know My Name,' the main song from the upcoming 'Casino Royale,' film number 21 in the storied series.
Cornell, on an L.A. soundstage filming Day One of a two-day video shoot for the track, tells AOL Music he understands the significance in large part because of Paul McCartney. "If you would've told me when I was 10, the first time I heard 'Live and Let Die,' being a huge Beatles and Paul McCartney fan, that I would be doing the song for the 21st James Bond film -- imagining that is a fantasy," he says.
But it was another U.K. icon whom Cornell looked to for inspiration in recording 'You Know My Name.' He says he was thinking about Tom Jones' over-the-top singing style when someone mentioned that Jones actually did a Bond theme.
"So I heard his version of the song 'Thunderball,'" Cornell says. "It's kind of a funny song. The words are about a secret agent. His voice is incredible. The band sounds small and thin, and it's Tom Jones singing, so his voice sounds enormous." We see the connection.
