About This Track

“Live and Let Die” is the main theme song of the 1973 James Bond film Live and Let Die and was performed by Paul McCartney and Wings on the movie soundtrack and on the soundtrack album. The song was one of Wings’ most successful singles, and the most successful Bond theme to that point.[1] Commissioned specifically for the movie and credited to Paul McCartney and his wife Linda, it reunited McCartney with Beatles producer George Martin, who both produced the song and arranged the orchestral break.

Although the most famous version of the song remains Wings’ original recording, it was covered by the Stan Kenton big band in 1973 and later by Guns N’ Roses in 1991. Due to its status as a Bond theme it was also covered by The Pretenders (released exclusively on the album Shaken and Stirred: The David Arnold James Bond Project), and Fergie of the Black Eyed Peas performed the song on Movies Rocks 2007, a CBS special celebrating music in movies. British pop singer Geri Halliwell , of the Spice Girls, released the song as a b-side track for her solo number one single Lift Me Up, in November 1999.

    deciding which version is better is the same as deciding which Bond is better. Me, it's Sean Connery.

    i have to say the original is better, but... maybe that's because i love the movie! Although i do like the GnR version too!!! But, maybe you should decide for yourselves though... listen to the movie version here >>> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ffqOKro0b0 ;-)

    @xxBabyMonkeyxx Me! Can't equate old and new, wish Axl had just given the new band his own name or something.
