Amy Grant "Oh How The Years Go By"

As the years went by, the number of artists who covered the song "Oh How The Years Go By" increased...as did the song's popularity. Simon Climie and Will Jennings originally released the uplifting tune in 1993, but the song failed to chart. A year later, Amy Grant included her take of the song on her House of Love album. This time, Grant turned the song into a Top 15 hit on the Adult Contemporary Chart. Two years later, Vanessa Williams said "I wanna try!" and recorded the song for a compilation album celebrating the NBA's 50th anniversary. Williams' version went all the way to #6. It's been a while -- who's up next?

Amy Grant asked for Joni Mitchell's permission to update the lyrics  in "Big Yellow Taxi" and Mitchell agreed (admission to the tree museum was hiked to $25 in Grant's version). Grant released the song in 1994. Grant's version preceded another more commercially-successful version from Counting Crows and Vanessa Carlton in 2003.
