Un-Covering the Beatles: #30-20


Listen Later

My Personal Top 30 Beatles songs and the Cover Version that best suits it if in fact you were only allowed one!

While I'm listing the cover versions below, in songs 30-20 you'll learn about:

- What famous artists' song Paul McCartney completely stole a bass line from and utilized it in one of their debut hits!

- The song that John Lennon was sure Paul McCartney wrote about Yoko Ono because every time he sang a particular part of the song he looked directly in her direction!

- The track that took 65 takes to finish through 3 disjointed parts but essentially doesn't really mean anything in particular

- And about the longest Beatles song -- which ironically only contains 15 words total!
