If someone
co-writes a song that someone else takes to #1, and then records the song
herself 10 years later, should that be classified as a “cover version”?
I guess it
doesn’t really matter. I love the Shirelles, and their original 1961 version of
this song is pretty great, but Carole King’s slowed-down rendition on Tapestry is even better, especially the
exquisite backing vocals by Joni Mitchell and James Taylor.
