While working on my story "The timeless songs of ‘The Sound of Music’" I started thinking about all the great covers and contemporary songs featuring samples from the classic musical.

Here are my seven favorites.

1. "My Favorite Things," John Coltrane




2. "Wind It Up," Gwen Stefani
Pop smash features prominent sample of "The Lonely Goatherd."




3. "Do-Re-Mi/ABC," Brooklyn Rundfunk Orkestrata 




4. "Sixteen Going on Seventeen," Modern Music




5. "Climb Ev'ry Mountain," Shirley Bassey




6."Edelweiss," Vince Hill




7. "The Sound of Music," Carrie Underwood
