POP CHARTS 1982

[ON THE ROAD]

Who covered a Gershwin song with top 20 success in 1982 ? Why is nothing coming up for this question. I have checked and rechecked the charts. Any ideas ? Thanks

Google says Sarah Vaughan made album called Gershwin Live! in 1982

A bit tedious but... Blue Monday was the original name of a one-act "jazz opera" by George Gershwin and also a hit for New Order (1982?)

Fun Boy 3 did Summertime in 1982

New Order was 1983 - so I'm wrong!

Just checked - It got to 18 in the charts in 1982 so that looks like the one

Thank you everybody for your help especially emeritus. Summertime was the obvious song and I had seen that Fun Boy Three had covered it, but as I said in the question I could not find it as a top 20 hit in the two chart books I have at home ( Dave McAleer and his complete book of hit singles please take note !!!) So thank you very much for sorting it out for me... much appreciated.
