@ Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars As the creator of this article, I don't think the article should be merged back into the Roll Over Beethoven article. While it's true that the content here is primarily lifted from that article, this cover version has enough long lasting significance to warrant a spinoff from the main article, particularly as a cover song by a very notable band ( The Beatles), and has room for expansion by connection to the wide bibliography available about the band's songs.
