What is the best cover of a song written by The Beatles?

[LoZoccolo]

Poll question: What is the best cover of a song written by The Beatles?

[Soopercali]

1. "I'm Only Sleeping"...

The Roseanne Cash version.

[ET Awful]

2. Ummmm. . .

With a Little Help From My Friends - Joe Cocker.

'nuff said.

7. I agree

In fact, that may be the only cover of a Beatles song that is better than their original take. Although I do like Elton John's "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" quite a bit as well, maybe as much as the original; it was the first version of the song I heard.

[ET Awful]

9. Exactly, it's the only one that, in my opinion, is better than

the original. Plenty of cool covers have been done, but only Joe surpassed the original. Kind of like what Hendrix did with Watchtower. He not only covered it, but took it and made it his own.

3. Other- "Fool on the Hill" by Sergio Mendes and Brazil 66.

I very much like the cover version of this song.

[MissMillie]

4. Aimee Mann and Michael Penn

"Two of Us" off the I am Sam soundtrack.

[Dookus]

5. I'm fond of Fiona Apple's

Across the Universe. Never much liked Oasis.

[LoZoccolo]

6. If I put it on the poll would you vote for it? n/t

[Susang]

17. What have you got against uni-brows?

Or drunken sibling fist fights? }(

[Dookus]

19. Are you kidding?

If it weren't for drunken sibling fistsfights, Grandma's funeral would've been an utter bore.

[MemphisTiger]

8. Gun's n Roses

Live and Let Die

[kick-ass-bob]

10. I kinda liked that one too.

Much harder edge - which I like.

[elperromagico]

11. "With a Little Help From My Friends" by Joe Cocker.

Very soulful cover of an already good song.

[Wickerman]

12. The Feelies - everybody's got something to hide ('cept me & my baby)

[Beware the Beast Man]

13. It's a tie,

between "Boy do we Suck Ass" and "Our Fans are Mindless Sheep," both by Oasis.

[Susang]

18. You forgot "Why Doesn't Anyone Remember Us Except LoZoccolo?"

Also by Oasis. :evilgrin:

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

20. Or "One fan band"

I fucking LOVE that one!

[Beaverhausen]

14. Every Oasis song is a Beatles rip-off

:hi:

[bigmonkey]

15. Tomorrow Never Knows - 801 Live

1976

[MarianJack]

16. It's Between 3 For Me

"In My Life" by Judy Collins

or

"Got to get you into my life" by Earth Wind and Fire

or

"Eleanor Rigby" by Richie Havens

[muse]

21. I also like Earth Wind and Fire's Got to Get You Into My Life
