We’ve heard #8 a million times. And some of the others are partially incorrect. #7 - never heard that. The story was that he flubbed the guitar solo and John probably laughed. #11 - he was made an honorary fireman and they gave him a NYFD t-shirt. #12 - debatable. Wikipedia says 2,200 but it could be more like 3,000 covers of Yesterday. #14 - Paul dropped to #2 last year Andrew Lloyd Webber is #1.

I thought the Guinness Book of Records said Yesterday was the most covered song, with more than 3,000 versions.

Correct - that’s what I was thinking. Ha! This says 7 Million Covers!
