Later renditions
Woody Herman and his Third Herd recorded Kitchener's song in 1952 for Mars Records; Herman's band recorded it live that same year with the title "Jump in Line." Lord Invader released a cover of the song on the Folkways Label in 1955, titled "Labor Day (Jump in the Line)". His rendition reached mento star Lord Flea, who in turn recorded a version based on Lord Invader's interpretation. It was released in August 1, 1958, by Capitol Records.
Flea's version inspired Harry Belafonte, who released his own take on November 17, 1961 (credited to his pseudonym Raymond Bell on the disc label). It was included on the album Jump Up Calypso, and was later featured in the films Beetlejuice, The Little Mermaid: Ariel's Beginning and Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules. It was also recorded by Lord Fly and Joseph Spence in 1958.
In 1962, R&B singer Gary U.S. Bonds released a version called "Twist, Twist Senora". In 1998, the song was covered by American swing band the Cherry Poppin' Daddies for the soundtrack to the movie BASEketball. In 2008, the song was performed by Samuel E. Wright, Kevin Michael Richardson, Rob Paulsen, Jim Cummings, Alvin Chea, Oren Waters, Rick Logan and Chris Garcia in The Little Mermaid: Ariel's Beginning. The song was sampled by Pitbull as Shake Señora off the 2011 album Planet Pit. Later in 2011, the song was recorded by Karl Zero and the Wailers, this version being used in Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules.
