Billy J and The Dakotas. I really wish The Beatles had done it. Have you heard John's piano demo? Mind you I like these guys doing it because it still resembles John's version.
They turned it into a nice pop song, and if The Beatles had recorded it they probably would have done it like this (and John wouldn't be happy about it), but John's hauntingly beautiful demo is untouchable. I've listened to that demo on repeat all day.
@superman11978 agreed this is solid in the sense they are playing it well and more than competently but it lacks the grit of Lennon's vocals as you know for sure that he would have given it more bite!
This band is the Beatnix, an Aussie Tribute band. The have a rare album of Lenn-Mac covers of early songs the real Beatles gave away called "Its Four You".($100 on Amazon) It is an alternate universe album of cuts like "Step Inside Love", "Like Dreamers Do", Bad To Me" Very well done. Also check the Beatnix on You Tube doing "Stairway to Heaven" Ed Sullivan style ! I am not kidding.....
I've heard another take of this song, believe it were the same guys.. just search youtube for the video, it has yellow curtains and a drumkit on the thumbnail.

Do you have the album? I got this in a bootleg CD I bought
in China years ago. There're also "Step Inside Love", "Like Dreamers Do", Bad To Me" etc... I thought it was brilliant!!
I also checked "Stairway to Heaven"
!!!!!!! Maybe I'll copy it in my band
