Question: Who wrote the original?
Answers: Who wrote the original?
Yesterday - The Beatles
The Beatles' "Yesterday" is often called the most covered song in popular music history; some allege there are over three thousand different versions, although no evidence has been provided. An online cover song database lists a little over a hundred covers for the song,[21] but places Eleanor Rigby as being more covered than it.[22] The Beatles' "Come Together" has also been covered numerous times. It has been documented that "A Whiter Shade of Pale" by Procol Harum has been covered over 800 times.[23]George Gershwin's "Summertime" (from Porgy and Bess) is considered a standard (see jazz standard) so has been performed in enough versions that an accurate number might be difficult to ascertain. Irving Berlin's "White Christmas" (from the film Holiday Inn) is well known for having been covered, and what is more a popular hit record, numerous times. According to one estimate "Cry Me a River", written by Arthur Hamilton, had 115 cover versions. [24] The 1973 song Radar Love by Golden Earring has been recorded over 350 times[25] and has appeared in many TV shows, movies and even video games.
