Live and Let Die - theme for New Reality Show?

I am watching the Braves-Cubs game on Fox, and about one minute ago, they were doing a preview for some show (I wasn't even paying attention, but it looked like they were skydiving or something). Then, quickly, I heard Axl say "Live and Let Die," but the 2 second clip sounded like he does live, not in the studio, but I could be wrong. The commercial was cut off because they had to quickly return to the game so I don't know if there was more to come. I know this isn't that big a deal, but I guess any publicity is good in this day and age with this band.

Thanks, but I could have sworn it was Axl. I could be wrong, of course, since I only heard it once.

Anyone notice the little GNR ref on Saturday Night Live? The introduction, right after the opening sketch, showed a picture of some street in Manhattan. In the near left foreground is a light pole with a bunch of signs pasted to it; one of the signs was an advert for Tommy Stinson. It'll probably be on every week.

I just saw that commercial myself. It is a reality show featuring ka-billionaire Richard Branson. I believe he's the guy who owns/owned Virgin. The commercial has contestants walking a tight-rope between hot air balloons...with Live and Let Die playing in the background...and I am pretty sure it is not AXL or McCartney.

They played "Paradise City" during a highlight package on the Twins/Yankees game. I heard the Branson commercial, and yeah, it doesn't sound like Axl or McCartney, but if it is either it's Axl.

I just heard that Live and Let die is the theme song for a new reality show called "The Real Billionaire". It stars Richard Branson (The virgin airline guy). I'm not sure if it's a newly recorded version or if it's the original line up.
It's been a while.

Am I going crazy here, or didn't we have this discussion already? I haven't responded yet because I kept expecting this to get moved. I seem to recall most people did not think it was guns n roses. I only heard it for a second myself, so I couldn't tell for sure. If it was guns n roses, it was not the version on UYI.

Yes, I posted this a few weeks ago. After hearing it again, it's definitely NOT Wings, but the music is also not Guns N' Roses. But the voice sounds like Axl, but almost the way he sounds in lets say, Mr. Brownstone. It's not the studio version and not a live version (I don't think), so this could be a new studio version. I really don't know, but it sounds like Axl.

I hear the commercial on Fox countless times watching football or baseball. It is 100% Axl's voice. Im shocked anyone here could think its someone else singing. Get some hearing aids people.
It also sounds like the UYL, If not maybe a very touched up live version. Or of couse, an Axl special, remastered in the studio and made just for tv.

Maybe someone can record the commercial off the TV?
Wish I could, but the show's not airing in Norway.

Its definately not gnr. Listen to the tone of the guitar, gnr never played it that way. Do yourself a favor, play the original and then the gnr version and within 3 seconds you will know the diference.
