English musician Paul McCartney has recorded hundreds of songs over his career of more than sixty years. As a member of the Beatles, he formed a songwriting partnership with bandmate John Lennon that became one of the most celebrated in music history. Some of McCartney's famous Beatles compositions include "Hey Jude", "Penny Lane", "Let It Be" and "Yesterday", the last of which being one of the most covered songs of all time. After the band's break-up, he recorded his 1970 lo-fi album McCartney, which he composed and performed alone, containing songs including "Maybe I'm Amazed". For the remainder of the 1970s, McCartney released music with the rock band Wings, recording many of his well-known songs, including "Live and Let Die", "Jet" and "Band on the Run". McCartney collaborated with Michael Jackson on "The Girl Is Mine" from Jackson's 1982 album Thriller and again a year later on "Say Say Say" and "The Man" on McCartney's album Pipes of Peace. In addition to writing his own songs, McCartney has recorded cover versions of songs throughout his career. (Full list...)
