As I have frequently been at pains to point out, the bulk of the above are NOT cover versions. They are simply different versions.
A 'cover' is a very specific device, being a recording released to 'cash in' on a current hit.
Thus, Cilla Black's execrable version of 'Anyone Who Had A Heart', was a clear cover of Dionne Warwick's original, and such practices were pretty much standard at the time, when the 'pop' industry was still largely controlled by the old guard of impresarios.
For E.g., the Searchers made a career out of covers of original and pretty much contemporary songs by Jackie De Shannon, The Orlons, The Drifters, etc. These practises were rife in the 1950s and early 60s and formed the basis of much of the Merseybeat and British 'beat' boom of the time.
By contrast, Bryan Ferry's 'These Foolish Things', is simply a version of a 'standard', originally written around 1936 and first popularised by Leslie 'Hutch' Hutchinson in the same year. Hardly a 'cover'.
