The song was released on October 22, 2002, as the lead single from the film's soundtrack album. The song features a mix of electronic and orchestral elements, with a prominent use of a guitar riff throughout. It is composed in the key of F minor and has a tempo of 120 beats per minute. The song's lyrics are about the theme of the film, which is about Bond's struggle to survive and overcome his enemies. The song premiered on MTV's Total Request Live on October 10, 2002, and was later performed by Madonna at the 2003 MTV Video Music Awards. The music video for the song, directed by Traktor, features Madonna in various action scenes inspired by the film, as well as scenes of her being interrogated and tortured. "Die Another Day" is divided into three distinct movements. The first movement features a guitar riff and electronic beats, with Madonna singing the opening lines "I'm gonna wake up, yes and no / I'm gonna kiss some part of". The second movement features a more orchestral sound, with Madonna singing the lines "Sigmund Freud / Analyze this / Analyze this / Analyze this". The third movement features a return to the electronic beats and guitar riff, with Madonna singing the lines "I'm gonna break the cycle / I'm gonna shake up the system / I'm gonna destroy my ego / I'm gonna close my body now". Overall, "Die Another Day" is a high-energy, electronic-infused song that perfectly captures the action-packed nature of the James Bond franchise. Madonna's vocals are powerful and commanding, and the song's mix of electronic and orchestral elements creates a unique and memorable sound.
