can you sort through all the covers of Yesterday and link the best. reportedly there are only about 1,500+ different covers.
shouldnt take that long. thought to be the most covered song in music history

My favorite cover of "Yesterday" is by Eva Cassidy (see OP)
It's based on the Ray Charles version but w/o the grunting

seriously though, what song (beatles or not) do you think you have heard the most different covers?
i think mine would have to be Key to the Highway - Derek and the dominoes is my favorite (didnt want to link it, since this is beatles thread)...and based on the post i have seen you have the last few days, you already know the song and version i speak of

Off the top of my head, a wild guess for songs of the R&R era with most cover versions:
"Louie Louie"
"Love Me Tender"
"Something"
"Blowin' In The Wind"
"Bridge Over Troubled Water"
"I Heard It Through The Grapevine"
"Where Did Our Love Go"
"Louie Louie"
"Love Me Tender"
"Something"
"Blowin' In The Wind"
"Bridge Over Troubled Water"
"I Heard It Through The Grapevine"
"Where Did Our Love Go"

Surprisingly good cover of I am the Walrus by Jim Carey (with George Martin).
You could actually argue Carey may have captured the spirit of the song better than Lennon did by turning that psychedelic/psychotic vibe up a notch.

I love that he ends with "There!? I did it! I DEFILED A TIMELESS PEICE OF ART."

yes and you could argue Klingons have infiltrated the New Zealand National Cricket Team, if you really want to

Accuracy in media is always appreciated

I'll side with George Martin that is wasn't a painful waste of time.

Motley Crue's "Helter Skelter" was pretty good, and fitting to that song.
