Summertime.
'Porgy and Bess'
I heard that Donnie Wahlberg wrote lyrics for Summertime
If you want to sing it, thee is no reason not to sing it. "Summertime" is from the opera "Porgy and Bess," which was written to be performed by a black cast (although it was written by a white composer). But that doesn't mean a white person can't also sing the song. Blacks can sing "Scotland the Brave," Americans can sing "Wem Gott will rechte Gunst erweisen," and Germans can sing "La donna e mobile."
The song 'Summertime' was not written by brothers. It actually was written and composed by George Gershwin. He wrote the song for the musical titled 'Porgy and Bess'.

Many artists of varying styles have covered the famous tune "Summertime," which was originally composed by George Gershwin for the 1935 opera Porgy and Bess. The lyrics are credited to Ira Gershwin, George's wife, and DuBose Howard, one of the co-authors of the book Porgy that the show is based on. According to The New York Times, "Summertime" has been recorded over 25,000 times.
Georgy Porgy - song - was created in 1978.
I couldn't find anything that uses plenty as the collective noun. However, in George Gershwin's 'Porgy and Bess', there is the song "I've Got Plenty of Nothin'"
very possibly- Summertime, from the musical porgy and bess. sung on both uks X factor by Leona Lewis and on American idol by fantasia. But its also been covered many times by lots of very famous singers.
George Gershwin's first hit song was Swanee written in 1919. He is also famous for the first song in his opera Porgy and Bess, Summertime, which was performed for the first time in 1935. If you include musical pieces, Gershwin is probably best known for Rhapsody in Blue, written in 1924.
