Beyoncé has covered a Beatles classic on her new country album, Cowboy Carter

Beyonce and The Beatles.

Beyoncé has already put a few noses out of joint by making the second instalment of her promised 'Renaissance' trilogy a country album, and with Cowboy Carter set to arrive tomorrow, March 29, it's been revealed that the track-list includes a Beatles cover, which is sure to cause more conversation among the professionally outraged.

It was already known that the pop superstar covered Dolly Parton's much-loved classic Jolene for the record, her follow-up to 2022's disco-flavoured Renaissance, but with the album having already 'dropped' in New Zealand and Australia, fans have discovered that the song listed as Blackbiird is in fact a cover of The Beatles' Blackbird, written by Paul McCartney for the band's self-titled 1968 album, aka the 'White Album'.
