Best Answer

To give the peace movement a fresh anthem. The song was credited to Lennon/McCartney, but Paul McCartney had nothing to do with writing the song; Lennon shared the credit because of the handshake deal they had made when they started collaborating. He said later "it should have been Lennon/Ono".

Guest performers on "Give Peace A Chance" (recorded live in their Montreal hotel suite) were comedian Tommy Smothers, Beatles publicist Derek Taylor, intellectual Timothy Leary and his wife Rosemary, author Norman Mailer, and the Montreal chapter of the Hare Krishnas. All were collectively credited as the "Plastic Ono Band".

- To above poster; Paul McCartney actually met up with John Lennon post-breakup as a friend, Not a business partner. He assisted john with the Writing of the Song.
