I know you are referring to the newest Bond film here, but "Casino Royale" was also recorded back in the 60's, with Peter Sellers as Bond. It's a very different Bond from the others, so it's not considered part of the Bond legacy. I don't even think it was MGM who made it. The title song, however, was with Herb Albert.
Edit: Another Bond film from the 60's, normally not considered "legacy" is Never say never (again?), staring Sean Connery. The title song was the same as the film title, but I don't remember the artist

Also, when Tom Jones asked how the producers wanted him to sing it, they played Goldfinger's theme for him and told him to sing as loudly as he could!
Kind of a male Shirley Bassey.
I was unaware of the Peter Sellers "Casino Royale"
