Wrong, wrong, wrong!

I was forced to watch William Shatner’s game show “Show me the money” tonight and one of the questions alleged that the Beatles covered a Rod Stewart song titled “Maggie Mae.” Unless there’s been some secret recording I’m not aware of, I believe the question writers for this silly show have mistaken Stewart’s signature song for a 30-second ditty off of “Let it Be.”

Anybody else catch this? It's not like they have to write 61 questions a show like Jeopardy! You'd think they'd get a handful of questions functionally correct.

Precisely: "This song should not be confused with Rod Stewart's song of the same name, "Maggie May", which topped the US and UK charts in 1971."
