Performances
The Scottish folk group, The Singing Kettle, performs this song for children in an interactive way by allowing the children to decide the foods of which Aiken Drum is made. One such version recorded by 'The Singing Kettle' is included on their CD Singalong Songs from Scotland, produced in 2003 for Smithsonian Folkways Recordings.
Popular Armenian-Canadian children's singer Raffi played a version of the song, called "Aikendrum," on his album Singable Songs for the Very Young (1976).

Famous quotes containing the word performances:
“This play holds the season’s record [for early closing], thus far, with a run of four evening performances and one matinee. By an odd coincidence it ran just five performances too many.”
—Dorothy Parker (1893–1967)
“At one of the later performances you asked why they called it a “miracle,”
Since nothing ever happened. That, of course, was the miracle
But you wanted to know why so much action took on so much life
And still managed to remain itself, aloof, smiling and courteous.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
