Best Songs that Have Been Covered Incredibly Often

The Top Ten
1 Yesterday - The Beatles

Not quite, it was "covered" about 2,000 times, still the record.
The "7 million" number was the number of radio plays it had received, and that was over 20 years ago, so the number is probably close to 9-10 million now.
Mis-readings like this are how crazy rumors get started.

2 Imagine - John Lennon

Elton John, David Bowie, Diana Ross, Avril Lavigne and Jack Johnson... the list is endless.

3 (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction - The Rolling Stones
4 Eleanor Rigby - The Beatles
5 Summertime - Abbie Mitchell
6 Cry Me a River - Julie London

I thought it was by Ella Fitzgerald.

7 And I Love Her - The Beatles

Beatles ruling!

8 Over the Rainbow - Judy Garland
9 White Christmas - Bing Crosby

This one is actually #2 after Yesterday.

10 Blackbird - The Beatles
The Contenders
11 Paint It Black - The Rolling Stones
12 The Look of Love - Dusty Springfield
13 Walk - Pantera
14 Kids in America - Kim Wilde

I even made a list about it.

15 Winter Wonderland - Richard Himber
16 Tutti Frutti - Little Richard
