"Different Versions" series

This is another installment of my "different versions" exercise.
My sister and i wrote this tune some years ago and here are three different versions of it done by different artists.
The first was done by Robert Shelton.

The next one is doreen peri on vocals and Lrod on instuments (recorded 2005)

The last one is Wanda Wunderlich on vocals, Rene Lawrence on guitar, Hendrix Tolliver on bass, Zeke Durrell on drums and LR on flutes. (recorded 1978)

I think it is fascinating how a single piece can take on a different color in the hands of different artists.
As a writer it is gratifying to me when I see that a piece "has legs" and can travel on its own.
Do you have any pieces (music, poetry, prose, paintings, anything) that others have interpreted and given you a new outlook?
