This has to be the best version of this song!

Putting her unique vocal spin on the sound Louis Armstrong made with his trumpet changed the way we approach music. She was a genius.

@kikilovesnoha This is the beauty of blues and jazz. If you listen well, you can feel the emotion settle in this minute and a half of melody.

Nothing like a  alcoholic heroin addict that sings the blues :)

I dont like how it takes like a minuite and 30 secends just till she starts to sing.

Hollywood Babylon redux? This is the original ...isnt it? Oh well.....its the one I grew up with and I thank ya for posting this. Dunno if Ive commented before. Good to hear it this morning. She consoles you. She makes you feel human. She makes you FEEL. Thats the most important thing about music and listening to singers. If you dont feel - really feel- youre just....lost. Peace to you ♥ Ya Billie
