This is the theme song for the James Bond movie titled "Live And Let Die". Lex, you totally picked up on this song sounding like a movie!
This was from the movie soundtrack live stream, so they knew it was from a movie before they heard it. Still, they were both very insightful with the meaning and signs with it being the first time they heard the song.
It's the only Moore Bond movie I like.
My fav Bond movie 🍿 🎥 .
....an "edge of seater" movie.
my favorite Bond movie of all time. Also, Carly Simon, "Nobody Does It Better" is pretty amazing too.
She also picked up on the Jamaican influences in the song as the movie "Live And Let Die" centered around a villain, played by Yaphet Kotto, who was Jamaican and employed a voodoo priest
Paul McCartney wrote his own songs. He's a genius.
*writes his own songs
@@c.taylorb.1612 yes of course. He is still alive, but we all know this.
The lyrics to this song was co-written by Linda though. And let's not forget about Mull of Kintyre (Denny Lane), the Elvis Costello songs and Michael Jackson.
George Martin helped him here with orchestra, but nobody wrote this song expected for Paul McCartney.
pure genius & my favorite Beatle ❤️
This guy is a freaking legend. You definitely need to be introduced to the Beatles as others have said.
The white album. :0)
@@williamr3840 💯
Thank you... oh wait... 'this guy'. Sorry.
Controversial statement in...
3...

The Beetles are the most Overrated band ever.
Decent? A few good songs yes.
Good? Meh
Great? NO.
@@jdm1066 *"Beatles". And your comment isn't controversial, just ignorant. You're certainly welcome to your own opinions, there's really no right or wrong in music, but the VAST majority of people recognize The Beatles as one of, if not the, most important and influential bands in rock music.
No ghostwriters. Paul is super talented. The Beatles came first in the 60's and then he formed Wings in the 70's. He wrote all his own songs and really blossomed in his own career after the Beatles split. I loved the creativity of his work with Wings (His wife Linda played keyboards and sang in the band too)
To be fair, Lex is onto something because *George Martin* actually composed the orchestral sections of the song.
@@markallen2984 Paul McCartney wrote the song. George Martin orchestrated and arranged it.
Cubby Broccoli, the producer for the Bond movie 'Live And Let Die', was so imressed with George Martin's orchestration that he commisioned him to write and arrange the whole instrumental score for the movie. George Martin was crucial to Beatles succes as he made orchestra arrangmentsvfor, produced and played piano for example on several of their tracks. That says something of Martin's abilty as a composer, arranger and visionary.
@@markallen2984 I think it’s fairer to say he arranged the orchestral sections, rather than composed them.
@@markallen2984 No, actually, George Martin did not compose the music - he orchestrated the orchestral sections; that is different than composing. Paul would play chords on the piano, and sing the melodies, and George Martin would listen, and then reduce it to writing for the orchestra musicians. Paul doesn't know how to notate. But Paul definitely composed the music. George Martin made this clear in his interviews.
wrong on so many levels, sorry
Brad & Lex, in an interview, Denny Seiwell, the drummer for Wings at the time, said Paul McCartney received a copy of the Live and Let Die novel at the recording studio on a Friday. It was sent by the Bond producers with an offer to write the theme song for that film. Seiwell said McCartney took the book home over the weekend and came in on Monday with the song written.
McCartney says he was on vacation in Montego Bay, Jamaica where he "snuck" onto the set of the film Papillon where he met Dustin Hoffman and Steve McQueen. After a dinner with Hoffman, with McCartney playing around on guitar, Hoffman did not believe that McCartney could write a song "about anything", so Hoffman pulled out a magazine where they saw the story of the death of Pablo Picasso and his famous last words, "Drink to me, drink to my health. You know I can't drink anymore." McCartney created a demo of the song and lyrics on the spot, prompting Hoffman to exclaim to his wife: "…look, he's doing it… he's doing it!" McCartney didn't need a ghostwriter
@@darkpitcher5242 Yes, Hoffman went on about this in his Playboy interview way back when.
Yeah, he's a bona fide genius.
Lol, Paul McCartney needs no ghost writers. The duo of Lennon/McCartney (Beatles) are probably the greatest songwriting duo ever. Live and Let Die was written by Paul McCartney and his wife Linda. Also, at this point in his life, Paul McCartney didn't have to do anything to try to make money, or to try to make a hit. The man is a legendary musician/songwriter/singer, etc.
The other three Beatles all had successful careers after the Beatles also. They all wrote their own songs.
Probably the best????
Lex picked up on it mentioning that it sounded like a song for a movie....the movie was a James Bond movie....Live And Let Die !!
Facts
This was written specifically for the James Bond movie “Live and Let Die” that came out in 1973.
It is not an early example of progressive rock as progressive rock started in the 1960’s, but I suppose you can say it is “Progressive Pop” of the 70’s. I think it’s classified as “Symphonic Rock”.
Yeah, or art rock.
@@andyscott5277 Bond rock! :0)
@Michael Brooks Paul's songwriting from '69 thru Wings included one key aspect of Prog-Rock: several chord changes and suites. Probably why he was more successful than the other Beatles in the '70s.
@@jasontaverner391 im not sure that's fair. Lennon took a break for the entire mid to late 70s post lost weekend and then was killed in 1980. All while mccartney started putting out garbage on his way to mullet wearing give my regards to broad street mccartney.
@@jamesmcavoy379 He took a break because he had nothing. "Sometime in New York" = awful. "Walls and Bridges" = Awful. His "Rock 'n Roll" album was just rehashing late 50's songs. The only reason people bought "Double Fantasy" was out of sympathy.
"Free as a Bird", and "Real Love" were embarrassingly pedestrian garbage. And as far as the "lost weekend" period, he produced what was easily Harry Nilsson's worst album "Pussy Cats", and was responsible for blowing out Nilsson's vocal chords.
This was written as a theme song for a James Bond Film ..... so the lyrics probably have some reference to the British spy hero and his latest adventure saving the world
My favorite Bond song
Such an unconventional cool track. Perfect for what it was written for. Has aged very well and grown in stature if anything.
Paul has been famous since 60s and is still releasing albums. He's the definition of prolific
No ghost writer for Paul!! He probably wrote this in like, 5 minutes! He could play every single instrument if he wanted to... and often did. That was his wife echoing the line, "you know you did".
I think it was over a weekend, crazy talent.
He read the book on the Sat and recorded the demo on the Sunday, and tweaked it over next couple of days.
Lex, Lex, Lex, sigh. Wasn't he in the Beatles? You make me feel so old! Listen to Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band immediately, the whole thing. The Beatles invented this type of song, especially Paul McCartney. And no, he did not have a team of writers He was one of the most prolific writers ever.
Finally, this was the opening song in the James Bond film "Live and Let Die". So yeah, it was a movie song.
Did you ever see Chris Farley interview Paul McCartney on SNL?
It's very funny.
“Wasn’t he in The Beatles or something?” SMH. Barack Obama? Wasn’t he a president or something?
My father would never have a tv or phone in the house when I grew up.......for which I now ( belatedly) thank him, LOL. However his mother bequeathed us an old phonogram (mahogony furniture with radio one side/vinyl record player the other and record storage beneath). Thank you grandma, you saved my life!!! One of the records I played endlessly was the Sgt Peppers album which I love to this day approaching 70yrs of age. One of the things "post Beatles" generations don't appreciate (and consequently may therefore not really "get" the Beattles) is what a seismic shift the Beatles music was from what preceeded them. They should all do themselves a favour and listen to "Sgt Peppers" as an example of their genius. Even the album cover was " groovy baby!!!"
In this episode of Brad & Lex, as Paul McCartney's amazing band "Wings" goes from "triumphant whimsical" to reggae then "whimsical triumphant" back to pure "triumph" back to whimsical triumph, Brad's signature "side to side sway" is thrown off often during these artistic transitions. Lex hangs in there although thrown off a tad from her usual "bop", she still manages to give us her "transitional bop".
Man, Smitty, I love your episode recaps. Brilliant!
Ever written a book....
You're like a Fulcan & Data all in one....
Thanks for the warm
Laughter I'm enjoying
Right Now.....
I thought I had detected a hiccup, in the side to side, good to see that confirmed. I thought I was losing my mind there for a min.... Oh yeah, never mind
Got to see it live or makes no sense
Ha ha
Sir Paul McCartney. The man's been knighted for his colossal contribution to the arts (music) & culture.💙☮💙
And the only beatle to give anything back to Liverpool.
Sir Paul McCartney doesn't need ghost-writers. The guy is a musical genius. That may be an understatement. His solo catalogue is massive.
Brad, the band is simply called “Wings”, not “The Wings”, so Paul McCartney and Wings. The song was written by Paul for the James Bond movie of the same name. His wife, Linda, was also credited as a writer on the song, and was a member of the band.
And to add Paul McCartney is a genius, Eddie Murphy said in a interview he met three genius’s on SNL. McCartney, Stevie Wonder and Prince. Also check out the series McCartney 321 he did with Rick Rubin (prolific producer) they talk about all his great songs, as well as the Get Back Documentary that just came out on Disney +. Want to see how they write songs, your jaw will drop in awe.
You are beginning to see the dynamic genius that is Paul McCartney. You really need to spend some time with the Beatles. Trust us, we lived it. Beatles are the biggest of big deals
If it sounds like a James Bond movie theme, that's because it was. Live And Let Die, starring Roger Moore, Jane Seymour and Yaphet Kotto.
And who can forget Jane Seymour?
@@lumpyfishgravy Solitare!!!
"Jet" is another great "HIT" by Wings. One of Paul McCartney's best if you ask me, but that's my personal opinion.
Great song
Such a fantastic song!
This is the theme song for the James Bond movies "Live and let die".
First time I heard this song was in the 1973 Bond Movie (drive-in) with my parents. Never forgot it. Guns N Roses covered it 1991. 🤙
I was 9 when my family went to see the movie. Always brings me back to my childhood, along with "Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey".
Guns and roses version was complete rubbish
It was written for the James Bond movie called Live and Let Die! Rodger Moore played James Bond in this version. It came out in January of 1973..
This is what you call a masterpiece…..it is a copy of nothing…it is it’s own piece….totally unique, not trying to sound like anything else….this comes from genius, not from sampling someone else’s music when one has nothing of their own. :-)
What u have to understand is... The Beatles were so huge in the 1960's, that when Paul McCartney attempted to go solo in the 1970's, he was under a large shadow of his former band. And people had written him off... saying he couldn't make it without John Lennon as his writing partner.
Also, McCartney had sued the other 3 Beatles in court in 1970 to terminate their contractual partnership and divide the band's assets equally (He couldn't sue their manager Allen Klein, cos he refused to sign a management contract w/ Klein, and he was worried about their finances) So he was broke and depressed for months while the Beatles' finances were frozen and being audited by the courts & lawyers. He had recorded a solo album 'McCartney' where he played all the instruments. He followed it up w/ the 2nd album 'Ram' in 1971, and critics panned his solo work, but fans bought the record. He launched his new band Wings in late 1971 and Paul McCartney began touring w/ Wings for the first time in early 1972 since the Beatles, traveling in a van and playing universities and small venues... he had to build his solo career from the bottom up, despite his Beatles success. That was why Paul McCartney became the most successful of the 4 Beatles members after their breakup.
John Lennon and George Harrison also found themselves under that same scrutiny... and Lennon's solo work began to flounder by 1974, which is why he took a break from music in 1975 to focus on his family. Beatles' drummer Ringo Starr was the least successful in his solo career cos he was not a great songwriter like the other 3... so he recorded songs often written by others.
If you look at Robert Plant, the lead singer of Led Zeppelin, he also had a tough time in the 1980's trying to escape the legacy of Zeppelin, after the band had been so successful in the 1970's... Plant's solo records were not the 'heavy rock' records of Zeppelin, so many old fans were disappointed, even tho Robert Plant had also built a relatively successful solo career.
John's life was floundering. That played into the music. (Although his "Rock and Roll" album is hugely underrated.)
tell us about the story when the guitarist from wings wanted royalties for all the songs he wrote and gave to P.M.
P.M. would not give the royalties. The guitarist said after court he would never write another hit.
He was right, P.M. only released shit from then on.
@@bwana-ma-coo-bah425 what do you have against Paul? From your other comments, it seems you’re a Lennon fanboy who is carrying on a grudge between them that was over by 1973. Your hero John wouldn’t agree with you and would think you’re pathetic
I LOVE this song! The movie is one of my favorite Bond Movies. Now I usually don’t go for cover songs but Guns N’ Roses crushes this song. This was 1973.
I still prefer Wings original
Why would anyone with taste want to hear Axl Rose do this instead of Paul McCartney.
The Heavy Metal band Lizzy Borden also does a very good cover of the song.
@@paulmahon1613 I agree. Don't like the Gunners version
@@notquitedone51 The barking seal of rock
This was the theme for the James Bond movie 'Live and let die' in 1973.
Guns N' Roses recorded a cover of this song in 1991.
Probably the greatest songwriter/singer/ musician of all time… His vocals have spanned a range of at least 4 octaves over the years, and his bass playing is brilliant… Check out a song called ‘Oh Darling’ and one called ‘Goodnight Tonight’… 👍
Oh! Darling...One great thing about this song is that it starts with an iconic E augmented chord.
Rare, unique, memorable and sounding great.
Play just that one chord, and you instantly know what song is coming.
Now you're going to have to watch the James Bond movie "Live and Let Die"
It's funny that you said Jamaica. I think some of the movie takes part in Jamaica.
He made the whole first “Wings” album with just himself and his wife (she did backing vocals). Then he formed a band to tour the album after it was released. He’s one of the greatest songwriters ever, and an accomplished musician on multiple instruments.
Originally, Wings was just Paul, doing all the writing and instruments in the recording studio. As the project grew, he formed a band (including his wife Linda) for touring purposes. Similar to Dave Grohl and Foo Fighters after Nirvana years.
I'm pretty sure he did this whole album playing ever instrument but I may be wrong on that but I seem to remember that
This movie still holds the world's record for boat jumping... one of my favorite Bond movies...
@@waynemoe3823 you're correct, which is what I was eluding to in the original comment.
Seeing and hearing this performed live is amazing
Paul was writing hit songs ten years before this, at the same time, ten years after, twenty years after, right up until even today. And he writes them for other people as well. He has written more hit songs than some people have had hot meals. He can play all forms of guitar, drums, keyboards. He even played the drums on several Beatles songs including Back In The USSR. and Dear Prudence.
One of the greatest movie songs ever. Sir Paul proved he still had the chops from his Beatle days, and producer George Martin deserves some love too. Brad had a great take on this
@1:46 "so made for a movie" lol. This is the greatest James Bond movie theme song ever. He was just really artistic.
My eyes are still blurry due to the giant flash pots on the sides of the stage which exploded each time Paul said Live and Let Die when performing this live.
LOL worth every damn second though.
Weird Al Yankovic asked Paul if he could parody the song to Chicken Pot Pie but Paul said no. True story.
Omg that would have been awesome.
what does that tell you about P.M. tells me he is a wanker
Hands down the best Bond movie song ever. I saw him do it on his 2001 show in Denver, and it was an absolute show stopper. Huge and dramatic with amazing pyrotechnics. One of the few live tunes that surpass the studio recording.
5:21 ish in feedback for Lex. There was an interview with Paul M, talking about cafe/club where Paul and John L. meet. They had already heard of each other and were prepaid to have a two-man musical battle. Paul paid a very complex jazz standard on a Gibson songbird. John took the guitar from him playing the same song back even better than Paul M. Paul M. asked for his guitar back flipped it over (Paul M is left-handed) and played it aging right-handed. That's when John L. asked Paul to be in a band with him. John L. and Paul had so much musical talent it is literally difficult to comprehend.
McCartney was commissioned to write and perform this for the James Bond movie “Live and Let Die.” He also performed this during the Super Bowl halftime show when he headlined it (in the ‘00s, as I recall).
This was the james Bond theme for Roger Moore's outing in the role. Its the opposite of live and let live
McCartney wrote other songs for movies as well. Check out “Come and Get It,” written for the film “The Magic Christian” and performed by Badfinger. And “Love in the Open Air,” one of his most haunting instrumentals, written for the film “The Family Way.” The man is a songwriting machine. While he was with the Beatles he not only wrote most of the Beatles’ #1 hits….more than John Lennon and George Harrison combined…but he also wrote big hits for a bunch of other artists, themes for movies and television shows, etc.
Spies Like Us! Haha!
I like his song Vanilla Sky which he did for the movie
Hi Brad & Lex. I discovered your channel today. I get a kick out of watching you two dig on these classic songs. When most of these came out in the mid 70's I was in high school listening to these songs off the radio in Chicago. You two prove how many songs are timeless. Lex, I truly enjoy watching you get in to these songs. You feel it like so many of us did over 40 years ago.
Wings is indeed Paul McCartney after the Beatles. This song is from "Live and Let Die," which is a James Bond film (1973). I knew Brad would like the lyrics. Basically, when a person feels safe, their attitude is "live and let live." But when they start to feel insecure, then it may shift to "live and let die." A separation develops between who should live and who should be killed.
It's a fairly profound subject for a song. McCartney wrote it with an assist from his old manager with The Beatles, George Martin, who helped with the orchestral arrangement (which Martin also did for The Beatles). It looks like the song was developed based mainly on the title, as the screen play had not been finished at the time, and the movie wasn't shooting yet.
GNR did a cover of it in 1991, which also charted.
I've seen both Paul McCartney and GnR play this song live. Both were great in their own way.
You know you're old when a couple of younger people are saying this might be from a movie..........
MERRY CHRISTMAS :D
I was a little kid when this came out in a James Bond movie by the same name. My parents went to the drive in to see it, since I was so young I couldn't watch and was told to take a nap in the back seat, in between movies they let me go to the drive in play ground to play to play with the other children, but I remember hearing this song even if I couldn't see the movie. The song always takes me back❤
Live and Let Die is the title song of the movie for James Bond movie Live and Let Die. Written by Paul and Linda McCartney and performed by their band Wings, was also nominated for the Academy Award for Best Original Song.
As mentioned by others, Guns 'n' Roses did a good cover of this, might be more up Lex's alley - rock!
To get your teeth into a bit more more rock 'n' roll from McCartney and Wings, I'd recommend the live medley "Venus and Mars/Rock Show/Jet", think you might enjoy that (I may have mentioned it before :) ).
Medicine Jar.
guns and roses cover is yikes . Nothing beats the original
Venus and Mars is one of my favorite albums!
Watching this song live is incredible. Must watch live version!!
McCartney = genius
This song takes you on a journey. I’ve always loved it.
This was the title track in a James bond movie called Live and let die. He won a Grammy award for best movie song of that year.
Request: Paul McCartney & Wings: Uncle Albert
April 4, 1964 - "Beatles have Top Five Songs in USA. It is a feat that will never again be accomplished in music. On this day in 1964 The Beatles had the Top 5 Songs on the Billboard Top 100 Singles of the week".
Saw this tour live at the Citrus bowl Orlando. When the drums hit hard at the beginning they set of fireworks all around the top of the stadium. It was insane. He sang old Beatles songs. Imagine being in a packed stadium with 70, 000 people singing Beatles tunes. Spiritual experience to say the least.
Yep I saw him in Philly probably over 30 years ago and when he played this the Vet was literally shaking from the fireworks and output of the music. Was amazing.
Great music of a 1973 Bond film. It was made by Paul with a little help from his friend George Martin at the orchestra part.
This song actually WAS made for movies. It's the theme to the James Bond movie by the same name.
At that time it was unheard of to have more than 2 / 3 writers on songs.
For instance : Holland, Dozier, Holland were writers for a lot of Motown songs.
Carole King was a songwriter for a bunch of artists in the 60’s ( Stax Records, Motown, Sue Records, etc…) before she recorded her own albums in 1971.
McCartney and Lennon are the most famous writing duo. 3 of the 4 Beatles had several hit records as solo artists. ( Paul McCartney, John Lennon and George Harrison)
Thanks for entering into the McCartney realm. It’s a blast! ✌🏼♥️
I have audio of me hearing this live - I went to a Paul McCartney concert in 1990 and I exploded when the song did in those parts. I LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEee this song. It made me love the movie (007 Live and Let Die) even more in the 70s when I first saw it.
Most of the Bond movie openings have great songs. My personal fave is *Another Way To Die* by Jack White (White Stripes) & Alicia Keys. This one is a close second for me.
Don't think I've ever seen anyone say Another Way To Die is their favourite, that's the only Bond theme that I can't stand 😂. I think Gladys Knight's Licence To Kill is my favourite
@@xMTxcameron 🤣😂🤣 I like all the Bond soundtracks. As for music in general, I rarely encounter a song I don't appreciate or like.
I love "A View to A Kill" by Duran Duran, too!
Merry Christmas, another great reaction!
One advice for Brad, is to try separating different instruments/sounds in his head. Try to think of what frequency spectrum that instrument is occupying. Try to decompose every sounds into individual sound, and pick up the small details, the tone and effects within that particular sound.
And once he is able to do that, he can observe how the individual sounds are interacting with each other. When is a layer being added in, when is that layer is being taken out.
That’s a easy step for him to start with, without learning complex music theory, in order to appreciate the craft and cleverness in the music.
Brad somehow tries too hard to be a “man”. He thinks lyrics is more “analytical” and music is more “emotional”. That’s why he is subconsciously trying to stay away with the music. But that’s not correct....
The truth is, in music, there are way more things to analyse, to calculate, and to be logical. For example, the layers of instrumentation, the texture, the harmonies, the chord progression, the tone of the sounds, the effects, the mixing, the production, how the sounds interact, the songwriting techniques, the use of modes and modulations, the rhythm.......there are levels on all these aspects, you can analyse them, on whether they are innovative, well calculated, well thought/sophisticated...
I think Lex is smart, she is able to pick up some of these. While to Brad, a song is all about the lyrics plus a chunk of background music. It’s like after all these times of listening to songs, Brad has read a long book. All the music has just skipped him by....
Here are some general advice/comments:
1. When a song has a long intro, and Brad says he is waiting for the song to start....Let me explain to you, the song has already been started once the first sound has kicked in....
2. Don’t read the song, listen to the song. You can read a book instead, if you like words....
3. When Lex is following the guitar solo note by note, she is not just feeling it. It takes analytical skills to follow the notes. I think she is very smart and logical for that. Brad somehow thinks that this is a “feeling/emotional” thing so he completely shut down on this. Brad should try to change that mindset....

Thank you
Paul McCartney wrote the song, he was an extremely versatile musical genius. The recording was produced by George Martin, who also produced the Beatles LP's. The song was written specifically for the James Bond 007 movie 'Live and Let Die'.
I saw him in concert on my birthday 7/10/2010 at A T & T park San Francisco and it was great and the pyrotechnics for this song was awesome!
I’m pretty sure it’s “world in which we’re living,” not “world in which we live in,” which makes no sense. Great song by the most successful songwriter in history.
The Bond theme songs are always part of an opening sequence that titles and credits.
You should check out a live version of this song. I've seen him in concert twice he did this song and the light show is fantastic. Paul is in the business for the music like most of the artists that started out in the 60's. He had enough money back then he never had to do anything for the rest of his life and live a lavish lifestyle if that's what he wanted to do. If you saw an interview with him he seems like a down to earth guy who just happens to be worth well over a BILLION dollars.
@Brad and Lex- Paul McCartney and John Lennon were the two main Beatles. This song Live and Let Die was with his own group Wings post Beatles. . He wrote all the songs for Wings. All the other members of the group did was backup vocals and play instruments.
The live version kicks ass!! The light show & explosions. Brings it to another level.
There's one video of Paul performing this song live and shrinking back in anticipation of the explosions at the cue, " ...live and let BOOM!!! "
Yeah, there is a secret genius song writer who writes for Paul. LOL
oh it is not a secret, the real music industry knows who it was.
I saw Paul McCartney at Fenway Park in Boston a few years ago. It was so amazing to see fireworks and flames shooting off from the top of the Green Monster over the city of Boston during this song! Rob Gronkowski from the NE Patriots (at the time) got up on stage and was doing some mean air guitar during this gig too!
Guys , Paul wrote this alone in minutes and it's one of the best songs ever recorded
Paul McCartney is the most successful songwriter in the history of recorded music.

Mr McCartney.. music genius..
Live and Let Die was a 1973 James Bond 007 movie which took place in New Orleans and Caribbean Islands. Paul McCartney wrote and sang this song and orchestration help from former Beatle producer George Martin.
This song is amazing when he does it in concert
“Did he have a team of ghostwriters?” Oh dear. PLEASE dive into the Beatles and acquaint yourself with the towering genius that is Paul McCartney, probably the greatest songwriter of all time.
I saw this tour back in 1976. First contest to open the Kingdome and one of the very few that sounded good. I heard he borrowed ELO,s laser and light show (they were proforming at the Hek Ed a couple days later) Quite the show!
McCartney’s Nineteen Hundred and Eighty Four is another explosion of sounds.
Nominated for an Academy Award for Best Original Song.
He turned it down because he whipped it up in fifteen minutes, and a lot of other artists (according to Paul) worked much harder on some really good movie songs that year.
@@DclementsRolandfc No kidding. What a generous gesture.
@@DclementsRolandfc How did he turn it down?
The song lost to another great song, The way we were, by Marvin Hamlisch and done by Barbara Streisand.
Both deserved it.
But he did not turn it down.
Bob Dylan famously said , “I’m in awe of McCartney…He’s about the only one that I am in awe of. He can do it all. And he’s never let up… He’s just so damn effortless.”

Okay so can I tell you I LIVE for Lex's fabulous reactions to everything. Her face lights up and she is so expressive - every part of your face. You are fantastic! Brad is always so stoic, and I never know what he is thinking until he tells us. I love that too. You are perfect companions!
This song reminds me of a chaotic, stressful job; sitting and waiting then, boom, a fight for everything.
This song was nominated for an Oscar, but lost to "The Morning After" from The Poseidon Adventure. Which is, of course, weird and unfortunate.
Live and Let Die is a really good James Bond film. They used parts of this song throughout the film. You guys should put it on your to watch list (but then you should watch every Bond movie IMHO). Also, as others have already said here in the comments, Guns N Roses does a great cover of this song. Speaking of which you should also react to their cover of the Rolling Stones Sympathy for the Devil.
Sheriff Cullpepper stole the show,
Saw Paul do this live at Fenway Park in Boston Massachusetts June 2020. He still kicks ass.
The Beatles and WINGS were all written by Paul McCartney and John Lennon. They never had help from anyone except their own band members. Some of the songs WINGS performed Paul wrote when he was still a Beatle. This is my favorite Paul McCartney song. I remember going to the drive in in 1973 to se this movie. I loved the song so much! I recorded it off the TV a few years later using my moms tape recorder. This is before cable tv or we had the ability to just buy anything.
I would love to see you react to other Bond themes, they are all amazing. My fave are Goldfinger (Shirley Bassey, she did two theme songs) Die Another Day (Madonna), view to a kill (Duran Duran), thunderball (Tom Jones) and this one but they are all really good. Chris Cornell did one as well just can’t recall the title off hand. Would be a good themed reaction, Brad in a tux and Lex in a gown......
Shirley Bassey did 3 ;)
I prefer Diamonds Are Forever, she really banged that one out
@@Ass_Burgers_Syndrome I agree, Diamonds Are Forever is by my favourite by her, fantastic song. I would probably put Moonraker over Goldfinger too if I ranked all the Bond themes, I'm actually not that much of a fan of Goldfinger as I am with other themes. I'd probably put it quite low down the list, I know that's like a cardinal sin for other Bond fans.
@@xMTxcameron I actually slightly prefer The Moonraker theme too. Other favorites of mine are The Spy Who Loved Me, and Thunderball.
@@Ass_Burgers_Syndrome Nobody Does it Better for the The Spy Who Loved Me is up there for me too, nice to Thunderball get mentioned! I feel like it gets very under appreciated, such a great song. I think my favourite theme is Licence To Kill, absolutely love that theme.
Guns n roses covered this song
I usually don’t go for covers but they crush this song. It’s actually more fitting for them to play. Axle’s voice is perfect for this song. Love the Wings version too though.
The music to the opening credits in every James Bond movie is dramatic and/or has many change ups that tie in with the style that the credits are presented, which usually involes sexy models with guns and abstract art. This song 'Live And Let Die' compliments this usual theme.
This was the theme song in the James Bond film Live and let die. Paul composed this song at the request of the film company. It was the first Bond film for Roger Moore, as Roger Moore took over from Sean Conery
You guys gotta react to Guns N Roses they covered this song !!! They crushed it you guys will love it
McCartney has always been great.
Never a weak record.
Even We all stand together (frog song)?
Or Ebony and ivory (he wrote it). Too saccharine.
I also think mull of kintyre is dreary (although knowing its sales, I'm in a minority).
@@paulqueripel3493 I think even" Mary had a little lamb,," carried a sweet spund.
One his best songs! Great memories from this one, I haven't stopped listening to it and I never have tired of it.
"Oh, room service? This is Mr. Bond, bungalow 12. I'd like a bottle of Bollinger, please. Slightly chilled. Two glasses. Thank you"
You guys are awesome, but you really need to check out the biggest selling musical artists of all time (by far)....The Beatles! 2.3 Billion album sales and counting! The next closest is Elvis Presley at 750 million. You would be doing yourselves a major disservice if you never hear the magic and genius that was The Beatles.
Peace
Not one of my favorite Paul McCartney/Wings songs, but he and they have a deep well of good songs.
Saw Paul McCartney in concert a few years ago. He did this in one of his encores and they had all these fireworks going off for the crescendo. It was very cool.
Happy Holiday, you two! Keep on keeping on!
Paul never needed help making hits or any song
