Most famous song of all time
| back to top |
Posted 2 months ago In my opinion, the most famous song of all time is "Yesterday", originally written by The Beatles. Just look at how many times it has been covered: Elvis Presley Sings Yesterday (Live, 1970) Frank Sinatra sings "Yesterday" Smokey Robinson & The Miracles - Yesterday Judith Durham (The Seekers ) sings Yesterday "Yesterday" Performed By Linkin Park, Jay Z, and Paul McCartney Bob Dylan and George Harrison play "Yesterday" Gladys Knight & The Pips - Yesterday |

| Posted 2 months ago Yesterday was and still is popular. Both sung and instrumental. Now you have Amazing Grace and God Bless America. Kate Smith used to sing God Bless America at almost every 76er's game while she was living. Did you ever hear the Mormon Tabernacle Choir sing this song? Wonderful rendition. Amazing Grace is played on the bagpipes everytime there is a death, remember 9/11? |

| Posted 2 months ago Another famous song is Aretha Franklin's Respect. She's not a generational singer. Many people have heard her, also think about this song which she made famous. Others have done this song, also, but not as well as she did. |

| Posted 2 months ago Is there another song that people think is a famous song? There are some classical pieces that have been turned into, at the time, popular. What's popular or famous to you? We have Yesterday, Amazing Grace, what else? |

| Posted 2 months ago Seems completely off track, but the first thing I thought when I read the title, before reading the responses was, "Happy Birthday". Sounds lame now after reading such good suggestions... :P |

| Posted about 1 month ago Happy Birthday is the most famous. It even beats Yesterday. It not only is sung by the familiar tune, but also in rap, hip hop, and other music types. |
