Which Beatles member co-wrote the song Guns N' Roses covered as 'Live and Let Die'?

Paul McCartney co-wrote the song Guns N’ Roses covered as “Live and Let Die.”

McCartney wrote the song with his wife, Linda McCartney. It was recorded by their band Wings as the theme for the 1973 James Bond film Live and Let Die. George Martin, who had produced many Beatles recordings, produced the track and arranged its orchestral sections.

Guns N’ Roses recorded their version in 1991 for Use Your Illusion I. Their hard-rock interpretation became one of the band’s best-known covers and was released as a single. It reached number 33 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and received a Grammy nomination for Best Hard Rock Performance.

The Beatles connection can cause confusion: Paul McCartney was the songwriter, but the original recording was credited to Paul McCartney and Wings, not the Beatles. Linda McCartney was also a co-writer, so a fully detailed answer names both writers; however, Paul McCartney is the single canonical answer among the listed choices and directly identifies the former Beatle responsible for the song.
