> Harold Arlen (1905-1986), real name: Hyman Arluck, began as a singer in his father's synagogue before becoming ragtime pianist and arranger. Wrote many revues with The Wizard Of Oz as the biggest. Also wrote dozens of evergreens: Stormy Weather, I've Got The World On A String, I Gotta Right To Sing The Blues, The Devil And The Deep Blue See, Come Rain Or Come Shine, It's Only A Paper Moon, Get Happy, Ac-Cent-Tchu-Ate The Positive, Blues In The Night and One For My Baby (And One More For The Road). Edgar Yispel Harburg wrote lyrics to It's Only A Paper Moon, April In Paris and Brother, Can You Spare A Dime?

Other cover versions (according to Wikipedia):

Sam Harris performed a winning rendition on the first season of the original Star Search. Barbra Streisand, Bette Midler, Eric Clapton, Jerry Lee Lewis, Kylie Minogue, Rufus Wainwright, and Garland's daughters Liza Minnelli and Lorna Luft have sung the song in concert. One of the most unusual versions was recorded by the late Hawaiian singer Israel Kamakawiwo'ole whose medley of "Rainbow" and Louis Armstrong's "What a Wonderful World" was featured on the soundtrack of the films Meet Joe Black, Finding Forrester, and 50 First Dates. James Stewart memorably warbled a rendition while carrying a "drunk" Katharine Hepburn in The Philadelphia Story. Even horror legend Vincent Price did a version in the film Dr. Phibes Rises Again, though it was originally sung at the end of the United Kingdom version of the film's prequel, The Abominable Dr. Phibes, even though both films take place before the song was even written. Elisabeth Andreassen also recorded the song.

Etcetera, etcetera...
