Well, if we’re going to compile heavily covered songs, I give you the Louie, Louie of its time… 
John Dowland - Lachrimae Pavan
Dowland’s own vocal cover:
John Dowland - Flow my Tears
Another cover by Dowland himself:
John Dowland - Lachrimae Antiquae
Giles Farnaby - Lachrimae Pavan (Paduana Lachrimae) (Dowland)
William Byrd - Lachrimae Pavan (Paduana Lachrimae) (Dowland)
Melchior Schildt - Lachrimae Pavan (Paduana Lachrimae) (Dowland)
Jan Pieterszoon Sweelinck - Paduana Lachrymae (Dowland)
…and so forth (with many, many more lost). I mean, something covered that much has to be popular music, no?

It was a temptation I couldn’t resist - Lachrimae is the King of the Covers, even now.

Admittedly less “poppy”, but if we’re doing Floyd let’s get some Syd Barett era stuff on the list…
Pink Floyd : Bike
Pink Floyd : Several Species of Small Furry Animals Gathered Together in a Cave and Grooving with a Pict

I keep trying to find out how many songs we have here, but I keep losing count. Does anyone who does not have dyscalculia want to give it a try?
