Who would have thought, that my interpretation of this songs courses trouble. I know, I´m not black. But... I think, white and black must live and work together against rassism. I had a boyfriend from afrika, wich was black, I was in the states singing with lots of black musicians. We should not say, all white people are like this, all black people are like this, all jewish people are like this and so far. We should say, we´re all people of this world, which is coulerd and beautiful like we are.
Ich persönlich denke, daß jedes Lied immer wieder neu interpretiert werden kann. Ich kenne Aufnahmen von "Strange Fruit" von Nina Simone, Cassandra Wilson und Sting. Jede ist einzigartig und anders als Billies Fassung. Deswegen hat auch jede von Ihnen, genau wie meine ihre Existenzberechtigung. Der Rest ist Geschmackssache...
