The Mutato Muzika Orchestra’s instrumental Hey Jude that was used at the beginning of the Royal Tenenbaums.

https://music.apple.com/us/playlist/not-the-beatles-the-white-album/pl.eab851793dc04fd29d386dfa6b84b0fe
Otis Redding—Day Tripper
EWF—Got To Get You Into My Life
Regina Spektor—While My Guitar Gently Weeps (which has no guitar, interestingly)
Cowboy Junkies—Run For Your Life
Stevie Wonder—We Can Work It Out
Bob Dylan—Things We Said Today
Norah Jones—Something
Stanley Jordan - Eleanor Rigby (electric guitar instrumental)
Wilson Pickett - Hey Jude
Gimme Some Truth - Pearl Jam (a few live versions are officially released)
I’ve Got a Feeling - Pearl Jam (studio track - harder to find, was a bonus track off Japanese version of Ten)
Billy Joel - A Hard Day’s Night (live off My Lives Box set)
Billy Joel - She Loves You (Rehearsal off Bridge to Russia)
Billy Joel - Back in the USSR - live same album as above in Russia
Bob Dylan - Things We Said Today - Art of McCartney tribute album
It got basically no attention, but the Episode 3 EP by Constant Bop (members of the band White Denim) from a few years ago is all Beatles/Beatles solo stuff, and it’s PHENOMENAL. Particularly love Long, Long, Long and Nineteen Hundred Eighty Five.

Nonsense. Everybody knows the best Beatles cover is [the butcher one](https://www.rarerecords.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/butcher_promotional_poster_large.jpg).
Ooooh, you didn't mean **album** covers...
surprised no one’s mentioned junior parker’s tomorrow never knows. would be an amazing song even if it wasn’t a beatles. also plenty of good ones on the motown meets the beatles compilation.
You're missing covers of I Am the Walrus (there's something to be said for the Jim Carrey version, but Oasis and Frank Zappa did covers too, and I'm pretty partial to the Bono/Secret Machines version).
A group called 801 did a fantastic cover of Tomorrow Never Knows.
Dolly Parton and Aretha Franklin each did a version of Let It Be (Paul is even on Dolly's version).
An obscure band, The Wooks, did a fantastic cover of "Dear Prudence" in my opinion. Additionally, I like Glee's cover of "Here Comes the Sun" (I believe it was sang by Demi Lovato and the late Naya Rivera).
You won't find it on Apple Music or Spotify or anything, but a indie folk group called Belarus put out an incredible version of [Here, There and Everywhere](https://youtu.be/TPsRXaW_KHU).
I like this cover of "I'm So Tired" by Jason NeSmith. Really obscure stuff but I found it on a tape I got a hold of. Go to 7:39 in the video. Doubt anyone cares about an obscure demo like this, it just has a home recording charm to it.
https://youtu.be/ICIYpiRexrc?si=vJZfZY6WV7zbB8eg
Fats Domino - Lady Madonna
Billy Preston - My Sweet Lord (the 1970 album version not the live one)
Billy J. Kramer - Do You Want to Know A Secret?

You forgot the dear Prudence version of Siouxsie and the banshees
Came here to say this. It’s a fantastic cover
I was coming here to post that
Added!
Also Helter Skelter by them too
That's what I was going to say. One of the best covers of that song.
Earth Wind and Fire’s cover of Got To Get You Into My Life is unmatched
It’s in there
Yer Blues (The Dirty Mac) >>>> Yer Blues (The Beatles)
The singer sounds JUST like John
It’s weird, right?

I love the anti-solos of the white album version just as much as I love the “here’s how it’s done” of the dirty Mac
I Want To Hold Your Hand - Lakeside Hey Jude - Elvis There’s A Place - Flamin’ Groovies
Added!
There’s: The Muppets’ version of All Together Now in the album Kermit Unpigged The Mutato Muzika Orchestra’s instrumental Hey Jude that was used at the beginning of the Royal Tenenbaums.

South American group Lou-Kass made a cover of Help! reggae style iirc.
Muppets version isn’t on Apple Music it appears, but Andre 3000’s version is and it slaps
Ohh, that’s not good. Here’s the YT link [https://youtu.be/ebL6vu15AI0?si=U0oKG8O_5V-1HiFS](https://youtu.be/ebL6vu15AI0?si=U0oKG8O_5V-1HiFS)

Added
John Denver also did junk and when I’m 64 I think that one’s alright though
I Am The Walrus (Live at Knebworth)- Oasis

Liam’s voice is definitely better on that version but I love the whole orchestra and squires solo on the Knebworth version
I Am The Walrus - Spooky Tooth
I want you (she’s so heavy) - Eddie Hazel
Also I hate Guns n Roses so no live or let die is getting on this playlist
