I'm A Fool To Want You

Aside from the strength of the rendition Holiday gives of this great song, what sets it apart is the orchestration and arrangement by Ray Ellis, one of the greatest arrangers of all time. The sultriness and the heart-tugging nature of this recording owe a lot to the back-up Billie got from Ellis and a host of really good support musicians. Great classic recording!

I'm a fool to want you

To want a love that can't be true

A love that's there for others too

I 'm a fool to hold you

Such a fool to hold you

To seek a kiss not mine alone

To share a kiss that Devil has known

Senza di te

Ever elegant and sultry, resistant to the decades since it was recorded! The Chanel Commercial serves to show Lady Day's Contributions to America & Music!

I love Audrey in the chanel ad :)
the song's good too

One could argue that it's not good to be in love with someone who has "a love that's there for others too".

There is nothing like a romantic song, especially one as beaituful as this, to make you realize what you really feel for someone you love.

Absolutely fantastic song - gives me shivers every time!
