Answer 5

The vast majority of covers have been mentioned by several other users. Though over the years, I've always been partial to this cover by The Byrds. Back at Harvard Law, Biff, Chip, Dexter, Larry and myself used to play this song continuously -

This is one of the earliest examples of a turning point for me in terms of really enjoying Caucasian music. Since then things have really opened up!

The original version by The Leaves is also noteworthy -
