About this listen
Cover versions of Beatles songs have become an enduring part of popular music, showcasing the timeless appeal and versatility of their songwriting. Artists from virtually every genre—ranging from rock legends like Jimi Hendrix (“Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band”) and Joe Cocker (“With a Little Help from My Friends”) to contemporary pop stars and jazz musicians—have put their unique spin on Beatles classics, breathing new life into familiar melodies. These covers not only highlight the exceptional quality of the Beatles’ original compositions but also demonstrate the profound influence their music has had across generations and cultures. Whether it’s the soulful rendition of “Yesterday” by Ray Charles, the vibrant performance of “Come Together” by Aerosmith, or Fiona Apple’s introspective take on “Across the Universe,” Beatles cover versions continue to enrich the band’s legacy, proving that great music truly transcends time.
