1. “Let It Be” (Bill Withers)
Bill Withers turned “Let It Be” from a somber ballad to a jaunting gospel track. The tempo is given a swing, which stands in stark contrast to McCartney’s straightforward piano chords. As always, Withers’ vocals stand supreme. Though we’re partial to the original, Withers did wonders with this Beatles hit.
And when the broken hearted people living in the world agree
There will be an answer, let it be
For though they may be parted, there is still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer, let it be
