"The World Is Not Enough" is the theme song for the 1999 James Bond film The World Is Not Enough, performed by American rock band 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 Garbage (1995) and Version 2.0 (1998).

Version 2.0 is the second studio album by American rock band Garbage. It was released on May 11, 1998, by Mushroom Records worldwide, with the North American release on Almo Sounds the following day.

The Garbage Goat (or Garbage-Eating Goat) is a goat-shaped metal sculpture in Spokane, Washington, with an internal vacuum that allows the public to "feed" trash to it. The Garbage Goat was created in 1974 by Sister Paula Mary Turnbull, a local artist known as the "welding nun", and it debuted at Expo '74, a world's fair exhibition hosted in Spokane.
