Now I'm really getting into the era where it was common for people to release covers of recent hits and sometimes turn them into bigger hits. What really struck me after I started putting together the list is that half of the top 10 here (2, 3, 7, 8, and 9) are covers of songs first released in 1967 that have somewhat or completely eclipsed the originals, including arguably the greatest Dylan and Beatles covers of all time.
