“What would you do if I sang out of tune…” Ah, nostalgia. That song is called “With a Little Help from My Friends,” and it was composed by the greatest composers of all time—John Lennon & Paul McCartney.
However, the one used in The Wonder Years was a version by Joe Cocker, an English rock/blues singer who is somewhat known for covering The Beatles‘ songs.
There are two official music CDs released for The Wonder Years—the official soundtrack, and a 5-disc set called Music From The Wonder Years. Both include Joe Cocker’s “With a Little Help from My Friends.”
