Some times a song can be a big regional hit but, not in other areas.I'm not too sure that #10 fits inside the list theme.
Anyway............

It was actually Jackson's song... Glenn Frey did help him finish it.

Actually, the Isley Bros has a big hit with Twist And Shout. That is why the Beatles originally played it at their gigs and eventually recorded it ...... it was a well known, well liked song.

Did the Beatles have a bigger with it? I guess it depends on who you ask..

Twist and Shout - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Did the Beatles have a bigger with it? I guess it depends on who you ask..
In the US the Isley Bros version reached #17 on the the US charts and the Beatles reached #2. I took that to mean a bigger hit for the Beatles.
In Australia the Beatles version was the only one I remember being played on the radio. I don't think the Isley Bros version rated at all.
That's the problem with a topic like this - it depends where you live
