 * Many versions not listed on this article would fit the requirements of WP:SONGCOVER.
 * Specifically I would note:
 * Big Brother and the Holding Company
 * the Zombies
 * Sublime's Doin' Time
 * Lana Del Rey's Summertime
 * Joni Mitchell's cover during the 1/2023 ceremony on the occasion of her receiving the Gershwin Prize
 * All of these have a wiki article that can be referenced. Eth4n (talk) 16:48, 4 August 2023 (UTC)

Difficult to find
Some covers listed would help find this easier. It took a very long time to find this song, several years in fact. If a few more versions, possibly alternative lyrics were added, I wouldn't have thought it was first performed by Ella Fitzgerald sometime before 1968. (Personally, I first heard it sung by Topanga on Boy Meets World, and couldn't find any references to it because of the very specific spelling choices of it's lyricist.) 108.224.106.197 (talk) 09:24, 30 March 2019 (UTC)
