editThere seems to be a problem with this article. It says that "Jeepers Creepers" was written for the 1938 movie "Going Places". But on archive.org you find a version of this song from 1932 by Paul Whiteman (http://www.archive.org/details/JeepersCreepersByPaulWhiteman1932). --83.181.102.119 (talk) 10:28, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
- Only 13 years late, but it's archive.org that's mistaken. All other sources say that Whiteman recorded the song in 1938. --91.153.52.162 (talk) 08:12, 7 June 2021 (UTC)
Does someone have a date for the Al Caiola version?
editThat's the version that drew my attention to Jeepers Creepers. It's on Youtube, and was also in the "Percussion on Parade" package. I am guessing this was in 1960, give or take 2 years, but would appreciate better information.

editThere really should have been a mention of the Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! episode Jeepers, It's the Creeper! in the "In popular culture" section. Your Pal, MooperVeltresleex 18:29, 5 September 2016 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by MooperVeltresleex (talk • contribs)
Siouxsie
editwas found to be too similar to the lyrics of "Jeepers Creepers"
The song explicitly quotes four lines of lyric from the earlier composition (though sung to a different tune), so there can't have been any "accidental" similarity.
