In 1973, Sir Paul McCartney wrote a song with the title 'Live and Let Die' for a James Bond movie of the same title. This song is not part of The Beatles archives but performed with his new band Wings. (no, Awie or any of his bandmates were not associated with this band in any manner)
The song immediately became a hit in 1973.
17 years later, one of the greatest (and partly notorious) rock band Guns N Roses, recorded a cover of this hit song. Not many cover songs succeed in making an impact if the original version is a great single at it's time but Guns N Roses made it.
Now, another 17 years after. It is about time to play the song again. Not because it should be played every 17 years. Not because the song made a cameo appearance in one of the scene of Shrek The Third.
It is just appropriate to remind each and every one of us living in the highly opinionated era to keep focus on your dreams, to keep working on achieving those dreams, and NOT to give a damn of any negative opinion from those around us. Especially those dream killers who claims that they care about you.
Go ahead, live life to the fullest... Live and Let Die. It's your life and your future that they are trying to mess with. DO NOT let them interfere..
END
Sir Paul McCartney, thank you for the straight forward reminder..

When ya got a job to do
Ya got to do it well
You got to give the other fella hell
END
Sir Paul McCartney, thank you for the straight forward reminder..
