Actually, Annie Lennox is pretty good so I wouldn't be surprised if her cover was good too.

[TurnMeOnDeadman]

Thrice- Eleanor Rigby

The Sgt Peppers (BeeGee's movie) fiasco had tons of Beatle covers by popular artists Alice Cooper did "Because" previously mentioned Aerosmith "Come Together"  Look for the discography from the movie! The movie stunk but the songs rocked I think Billy Preston did a couple in the movie also!! I think was it Sara Maglauchlan did Blackbird! John Lennon said Ann Murrays version of his song was his favorite version!

It's not a cover,it's not even a band. The most moving rendition of a Beatles song that I've ever seen was by a young East German student shortly after the Berlin wall came down. It was on Nightline. He did an accoustic guitar version of Eight Days a Week and his singing brought me to tears. The whole situation was very emotional. He said Beatles music was one of the things that got smuggled into East Germany,the communists banned it,but everybody got a hold of it anyway. He was so happy that he could now openly buy their records and sing their songs. He said The Beatles were one of the great symbols of freedom. He sang that song with pure joy. I've loved Eight Days a Week-any version of it-ever since.

awwwww, that sounds really great! what an experience

Its a toss up between Bing Crosby doing "Hey Jude", and Ella Fitzgerald doing "Savoy Truffle".  Choose your weapon.

I love Shawn Colvin and she recently released her 'Greatest Hits' which has a pretty version of 'I'll Be Back'.

[In Blue Hawaii]

What about Nina Simone's Here Comes The Sun?

I like the Mamas and the Papas cover of I Call Your Name
