Line 24:
* [[Covered Up]]: The Mamas and the Papas are examples of both sides of this trope.
** Their version of "Dedicated to the One I Love" is much better known than the earlier version released by [[The Shirelles]]. Similarly, their cover of "Dream a Little Dream of Me" (in which Cass Elliot did her own whistling) charted much higher than the 1931 original by Ozzie Nelson and his Orchestra.
** Everybody thinks of [[The Beach Boys]]' cover of "Califormia Dreamin'" before the original version, even though John and Michelle Phillips were in the music video.{{verify}} <!-- MOD: They *do*? I'm old enough to have heard M&P songs when they were originally released and I never even *knew* the Beach Boys had covered "California Dreamin'". -->
* [[Embarrassing Nickname]]: According to her 1968 interview in ''Rolling Stone'' magazine, Cass Elliot never liked being called "Mama Cass" (especially after she became a mother), but the nickname stuck because of her association with the group.
* [[Hating on Monday]]: "Monday Monday"
