Rolling Stone's Best Beatles Covers

For the last two weeks, the contestants on American Idol have been covering the music of the Beatles. The first week wasn't bad, but the second was truly atrocious. With such a vast catalog, you would think that the song choices would have been exceedingly better.

In salute to, or to erase the memory of, those two weeks of shows, Rolling Stone asked its readers to choose the best covers of Beatles tunes.

Helter Skelter - U2
I Am the Walrus - Oasis
With a Little Help From My Friends - Joe Cocker
Across the Universe - Fiona Apple
Come Together - Aerosmith
You’ve Got To Hide Your Love Away - Eddie Vedder
Got To Get You Into My Life - Earth, Wind & Fire
Happiness is a Warm Gun - The Breeders
Hey Jude - Wilson Pickett
In My Life - Johnny Cash
Within You Without You - Sonic Youth
Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds - Elton John
Blackbird - Sarah McLachlan
Because - Elliott Smith
You Can’t Do That - Harry Nilsson
