Anybody can post a challenge.

The rules of the game are simple, take any song you like from any genre you want, put the lyrics through any AI [you may weight lyrics as the AI allows] that you want and post the resulting image here under the post title Name That Song [GENRE]. After 48-72 Hours or if the answer is guessed sooner, edit the post's title to [Solved][Genre] and put the song title and artist (and optionally any highlighted lyrics) in a spoiler tag in the body of the post.

Other than that, enjoy.

Here is a list to a few AI image generators you can use.

I will accept an answer with either of the first two of 20 artists to make this song famous.

Looks like “Stormy Weather” by Arlen and Koehler.

Correct! Since I'm new at this, could you name one or both of the first popular singers (when I said artist that's what I meant). I will post the title with the premiere or secondary famous singer when you name them or enough time passes.

Ethel Waters and Duke Ellington did early versions. Lena Horne sang it for the movies I think. Depends how famous you like your famous, I suppose.

Ethel Waters was what I was looking for. Although she and Ivy Anderson both sang it in 1933; the latter sang with Duke Ellington.
