  • Thumbs up if you hate your generation. I'm 16.

  • Billie is always missed and loved by so many...Thanks!

  • Es gibt eine Studioaufnahme von dem Song die ich vergeblich suche. Man hört wie sie die Stühle rücken, den Verkehr durch das offene Fenster und ein paar Leute die sich im Studio im Hintergrund unterhalten. Nichts davon stört die Stimmung des Songs, eine unglaubliche Leichtigkeit.

  • @FlauschigeFeder Hi! Versuche es mit "The Complete Billie Holiday on Verve" (10CD Box) Auf CD4 oder CD6 könntest du fündig werden. Es sind private Aufnahmen so wie Rehearsals darauf enthalten. Die Box lohnt sich auf jeden Fall komplett. Gruß und ich hoffe ich konnte helfen

  • After hearing Billie for the first time I knew she would be with all my life.

  • Range? She had almost no vocal range, which made her talent all the more impressive.

  • She had a sultry & raspy voice but there's just something about Ms Billie's vocals, Not like any other voice i can capture with such emotion and range. Love this song and especially the way she sings it. Thank you for the videos. Totally Classic

  • @719kai719 She sings so, because it is her own song. And this is a Version maybe 20 Years after first Recording. I like it very much too. For me is BH the Greatest. But take a look to Anita O' Day. She's very well too and was a funny Person (Tip: Live in Tokyo '63)

  • @watcherof47 okay & thanks

  • Zero dislikes. That's not a coincidence people, that's science.

  • So good to listen to someone who doesn't scream her emotions. Someone who sings them.

  • Its kinda sad that the most of my generation dislike something like this. I mean, listening to that pop crap and saying that this is shit?! That voice, that emotion - incredible!

  • @ExperienceSam Thanks for your comment. I feel the same, but: Don't despair, even today there are rays of light: 2007's BIOSHOCK game (a pretty morbid and bloody if somewhat artsy experience btw) did a beautiful thing by bringing a whole lot of wonderfull music to an unprepared new audience. This particular song being the featured one. There is a lot of enthusiastic response to the bioshock soundtrack on utube and elswhere. God bless Billie!

  • so true !!!!!!!!!!!!

  • of course not..ladies & gentlemen ;-) She "Billie HoliDay" wrote It...

    questions asked? bless Her for her timeless grace & beauty

  • love her soon much her voice is so sweet

  • I am speechless. Is there any better version? 

  • Love this rendition, I've never heard it before. Thanks so much for sharing this beautiful tune by the lovely Lady Day.

  • I've been a friend to go to when people were in need. Now that I am in need, noone comes around, nor even talks to me. When I was partying nightly and buying drinks, I went over my minutes on my cell phone every month. Now that I am in need, I have roll over minutes. Whoever invented karma, was probably a moocher. They wanted someone to give them something and not expect repayment in return. Everyone has a hustle. I am wiser, much wiser now.

  • @shakaama Fair weather friends can be found every where a true friend is hard to find.

  • Thank you for this song. She was a great lady with a beautiful voice and she wrote a beautiful song. I love this, it means so much!! I hope there are some that actually listen to the words.
