Motown released a compilation several years back of Beatles covers done by Motown artists. Some of it is downright awful (Four Tops covering Michelle), but others are really brilliant. As much as I love the original version of Something, I almost prefer the Martha Reeves & The Vandellas version to it! Good stuff!

Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, because it has a double meaning...that's really the only one I can stand to hear THEM sing. I only like the Beatles' songs when someone else remakes them. Yes, it's true. I think their singing voices are atrocious. But, they have good lyrics.
