<P> `` The World Is Not Enough '' is the theme song from the eponymous 1999 James Bond film , performed by American - Scottish alternative rock group Garbage . The song was written by composer David Arnold ( who also scored the film ) and lyricist Don Black , previously responsible for four other Bond songs , and was produced by Garbage and Arnold . `` The World Is Not Enough '' was composed in the style of the series ' title songs , in contrast with the post-modern production and genre - hopping of Garbage 's first two albums . The group recorded most of `` The World Is Not Enough '' while touring Europe in support of their album Version 2.0 , telephoning Arnold as he recorded the orchestral backing in London before travelling to England . Garbage later finished recording and mixing the song at Armoury Studios in Canada . The lyrics reflect the film 's plot ( told from the viewpoint of antagonist Elektra King ) , with themes of world domination and seduction . </P>
