[vickyd0ll]

im pregnant n every time i listen this song my baby is all relax in my belly :) love her music

[karld24]

i love this womans voice its so peacefull and relaxing im only 22 is that wrong ha

[doggsector]

First time I ever heard this song was in the movie Forever Young with Mel Gibson and loved it immediately. I also like it by Frank Sinatra that he did with Glenn Miller, not his 62 version. Billie Holiday was awesome. She would have gotten the help she needed nowadays, very sad story. What a terrific talent.

[imaVIP4ever]

is it wrong for a 14 yr old to love an 1933 blue singer? I think not !

[Outfld22]

@imaVIP4ever No that is not wrong at all. This is real musical talent. It makes my hair stand up.

[TimmyFeathers]

@imaVIP4ever not as much as it is for me <3'ing for this comment :)

[BagOfSticksFork]

@imaVIP4ever Is it wrong for an 11 year old to love an 1933 blues singer? I think not!

[gladiatorgal1]

I melt when I hear this song! It reminds me of my VIKING love..... (sigh)

[MrTurk1973]

Very Beautiful song that will forever stand the test of time!

[lesrenee2078]

cityducky that's a beautiful idea, and if you're a male, i love you. :P Billie is eternal, I hope your marriage is too.

[cityducky]

I want this song to play at my wedding and be the first dance as a married couple =)

[TheSharron]

Absolutely magnificent!Such a beautiful voice from such a tragic,child of God!

[ruthcabarcas]

Through all the obstacles presented in her life, she still managed to touch us with her unique soulful voice that will live on for generations to come.

[tingirl007]

[rennogsd1996]

[rakeuiff]

@rennogsd1996 Me too!, it was a very powerful scene!

[bargainmom]

@rennogsd1996

Me, too! When I saw Forever Young with Mel Gibson, it really touched me. I never never forgot this song. It's so beautiful. I also love Bing Crosby, Nina Simone, anyone who can sing with SOUL

[keda96]

[minnellasteph24]

I love love this song. She is AMAZING.

[fromthesidelines]

Recorded on September 15, 1938...and probably the best side she recorded that year.
