Summertime is supposedly the most covered song...........

01 - Summertime - The Zombies

 

[Cal Weldon]

Really I think it's a case of semantics

Could be, but the UN does not recognize England nor the others as countries. I think it's the reason we don't see English Consulates, High Commissions or Embassies, just British ones as the UK is the recognized governing body. Anyway, the other Mods might consider this as political so I shall refrain now.

Is summer the topic or...?

Cool, I've always liked Summertime. I must have at least 20 versions of it.

Sometimes I'll get on YouTube and listen to multiple covers of a given song. I always like it when someone takes a good song and makes it their own. Black Hole Sun, Blue Monday, Light My Fire, The Look of Love, and Cry Me a River are good examples. Lots of interesting covers.

 

[scottjoplin]

Gotcha, I read your link. Legally I don't doubt it. Within the UK though England, Scotland and Wales are called countries most of the time. British Embassy, that's interesting, wonder if it includes Northern Ireland. Things are very complicated here, that's why most of us don't argue about semantics....we leave that to the polytricksians

The Chris Farlowe one is pretty good too, IMO.
