This is one of the saddest songs I have ever heard. It is Strange Fruit by Billie Holiday.

to be honest, i don't know why people can't just appreciate the spirit of the song and stop critiquing every single minute quirk they may find in technique, or wording or w/e have you....when Billie Holiday performed this song...technique was teh LAST thign on her mind...its the emotion behind the song that the writers and performers intended to convey!! and you executed it VERY well i must say...

Billie Holiday didn't write this any more than Frank Sinatra wrote "My Way". She has given the definitive performance of the song but you're inaccurate in saying she wrote it.
Strange Fruit was written in 1937 by Mr. Lewis Allen.

where did I write that she wrote it? This version, which I have done, is a cover of the version by billie.

It's in your description: "This is one of the saddest songs I have ever heard. It is Strange Fruit by Billie Holiday."
