    Originally, Paul woke with this melody in his head, and quickly went to the piano next to his bed in the Asher's attic apartment. By breakfast, he was trying to write lyrics to help memorize the tune. His initial lines were "Scrambled eggs,...oh my baby how I love your legs, and oh yes I love scrambled eggs....." It took him a few weeks to discover it wasn't just some tune he remembered from childhood and actually something he came up with. It became the most covered song in history.

      When I first heard this song in '65, it sounded vaguely familiar. Later, when my mother first heard it, she told me it is from an old Scottish folk song she used to sing to me as a baby.
      These days I can only remember the first two lines which are "Yesterday when we were young and gay, All our cares seemed so far away.
      Shortly after, The Stones recorded As Tears Go By which I preferred listening to. Back in the 60's, being a Beatles fan, I would happily tell anyone how much I hated the Stones.

    Burch, I think the best example I can think of for how an alternate version of a song becomes very well known is Weird Al Yankovic's version of Don McLean's "American Pie", which is a syllable-matching parody of the original. Don McLean himself has admitted that he's been onstage, starting "American Pie", and has to consciously make sure he doesn't start with "A long, long, time ago, in a galaxy far away, Naboo was under an attack"....

    Not sure of the figures now but there was a time when it was said that this song had been recorded by over 2000 artists and is the most recorded song of all time - the string arrangement is so subtle and sympathetic to the emotions, its one thing to come up with a melody its another to record a song thats just so perfect in everything but that was what The Beatles did...(Although many musicians will tell you that Lennons song 'Tomorrow Never Knows' is the song that expanded their minds and made them think about whats possible)

    The Aerosmith song you referenced I feel the same way about it. Though I see it as when you’re young, the reflection of your older self in the mirror is just that. You’re seeing your future self. As you get older your viewer position changes from being the younger self seeing your future older self to being your older self looking back on your younger self.
    I feel the same way about Pink Floyd’s song about time. “And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
    No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun”. Always could see that happening to someone and now that more than 10 years have gone by, I can honestly say I thought I heard the starting gun but didn’t react to it. :)
