WFMU shares 79 versions of the song “Popcorn” at their weblog. Gershon Kingsley’s original version of the tune sounds so different from the Hot Butter hit of two years later. I enjoyed James Last’s trumpet-heavy take as well. And don’t forget The Marimba Band of Fairfax High School‘s charming cover, contributed by Otis Fodder last January. All very diverse renditions of the same hypnotic melody; more about the song at Wikipedia.
