Beatles covers: better than originals?
Anybody know any artist cover performances of Beatles tunes that are better than the originals?
Most covers of Beatles tunes fall way short compared to the originals, in my opinion.
I can't think of too many that stand out in my mind.
On American Idol, during the two Beatles weeks recently, two performances stood out that I recall: "Let It Be" by Brooke White was very heartfelt and right on and "The Long and Winding Road" by the young 17 year old kid (David ???) was as good as anything I've ever heard. Watch that kid...he is extremely talented....when he is on, he is right up there with the best!
