"Summertime"

Ella Fitzgerald& Louis Armstrong: 


Billie Holiday:


Nina Simone:







Those are my favourites. I've also listened to the (original) opera version. Other versions are Sarah VaughanNorah JonesJanis Joplin, James Cooke, The Zombies, Billy Stewart... Personally I don't like them much, but love the fact that they are completely different.  
Which rendition do you like?
