Post #033: Under The Covers #2

A classic today, to be remade and covered for years to come I'm sure. "Across the Universe" written by John Lennon & recorded by The Beatles toward the end of their existence. Today we have fine renditions put forth by such acclaimed artists as Rufus Wainwright & David Bowie and the classic cover by Fiona Apple, but also lesser knowns such as Torinho Horta with his endearing interpretation, The Curtain Society lends it's shoegaze version, and even an instrumental version by Jason Falkner.
