This is song is genius! And a great tribute to Billie Holiday. Every lyric sung is pure bliss and when the saxophone gets louder towards the end, it is just amazing. Regina Spektor will never cease to amaze me...
it is about Billie Holiday the blues singer. She was often known as Lady and then she had an album titles Lady Sings the Blues... regina spektor’ s songs never cease to amaze me!
lol me 2. her voice can get....creepy at times...but she's got style and she plays beautifully...her lyrics are so meaningful and beautiful that I love pretty much all her songs. Bless you Regina<3

The second time she says "Little wet tears on your baby's shoulder" I HEARD Billie Holiday's voice. Am I the only one? It was...haunting.
