And more-

Brian Wilson, Nina Simone and R.E.M. all covered Gershwin's Summertime aswell, and they're not on this list.

This is a list of chart positions, covers that didn't chart anywhere are not included, we only list hits

Theres more

There is a song called "Summertime" by My Chemical Romance in 2010 that was a huge success

As we say in many places there are various technical reasons why the listings we have here from after 2007 are incomplete
