About this deal

Andy Williams covered the song on his 1966 album The Shadow of Your Smile. That same year, "Michelle" was one of Louis Andriessen's "Satirical Arrangements" of Beatles songs for singer Cathy Berberian. American jazz singer Sarah Vaughan also covered the song, while Matt Monro recorded it in 1973 with a string quartet. Instrumental versions were released by the Ventures, using a clavinet over the solo; Booker T. & the M.G.'s; and French bandleader Paul Mauriat, whose interpretation author John Kruth describes as "the most elegant Muzak version" of the song. [49] The other songs cited by Doggett are " And I Love Her", " Eleanor Rigby", " Here, There and Everywhere", " The Fool on the Hill", " Hey Jude", " Let It Be" and " The Long and Winding Road". [38] According to Savage, this perception was short-lived since the Beatles' activities from March 1966 onwards indicated a desire to depart from their image as pop stars, with no regard for their audience's expectations. [47] After the Beatles released Revolver in August, the Overlanders called it "absolutely useless" and said that, despite their success with "Michelle", they would not consider recording any of the album's songs. [48] Michelle" was also covered by David and Jonathan, whose version was produced by Martin. [41] This recording went to number 1 in Canada [42] [43] and number 18 in the US, [44] and was also a top 20 hit in Britain. [45] Author Jon Savage writes that both the Overlanders' and David and Jonathan's versions were "mainstream pop songs, accentuating the very Beatles balladry that put off many hardcore fans"; he says this added to a perception that the Beatles had become "part of the Establishment" after receiving their MBEs from Queen Elizabeth II in October 1965. [46] [nb 3] It paints a defiant picture of a moment (or movement even) in time. When artists stood shoulder to shoulder to defy the tumult on the right.
