As a film enthusiast with a penchant for unconventional stories and a deep love for Christmas tunes, I can confidently say that Black Doves is a Netflix series that should be on everyone’s watchlist this holiday season. The intricate plotline, coupled with the fitting festive soundtrack, makes it an engaging watch.
If you’re searching for a unique Christmas-themed TV show that goes beyond the traditional favorites, you might want to check out Black Doves on Netflix.
In the latest suspenseful production, Keira Knightley and Ben Whishaw take center stage. The story revolves around Helen Webb, an undercover agent, who embarks on unraveling a mystery surrounding her lover, who was mysteriously murdered.
The narrative takes place at Christmas time in London, accompanied by several holiday-themed songs such as “Fairytale of New York” and “Santa Baby,” throughout the initial six episodes.
In a similar fashion to The Day of the Jackal, Black Doves recruit a renowned musician to compose an original theme tune. They opt for a melancholic rendition of a classic by Nancy Sinatra.
If you’ve been grooving to the tunes of the Black Doves soundtrack, keep reading as we delve into a comprehensive rundown of every song included.
Who sings the Black Doves credits song?
Raye performs as the theme singer for Black Doves, her rendition being a cover of Nancy Sinatra’s hit “Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)”.
She follows in a succession of musicians who have sung this song, originally appearing on Cher’s second album in 1966, with Frank Sinatra’s version being released later that year.
Singers like Caroline Polachek, Dua Lipa, and Lady Gaga have also performed “Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down),” making it clear that Raye is joining an esteemed group of vocalists.
Unfortunately, her rendition of the song, exclusively produced for the Black Doves’ soundtrack, isn’t accessible through streaming platforms as of now. But we’re eagerly waiting for its official launch in the upcoming weeks!
