Billie Holiday's voice is just stunning

I remember seeing this advert on the first night after I moved to London from NYC. It made me both homesick and full of joy at the same time. It's been over 20 years, and I think of this one often.

Awww! It was fun @ the time!

Just to let you all know this is actually my daughters mum who im sitting next to as i write this and she is reading the comments and no she isnt his daughter.

@jmv123 It can't be Tony's daughters Betty or Ruby Kaye as they would be too young. I can't shed any further light on who she is, other than to say she was also on an Athena poster in the 1990s Give Peace a Chance was the slogan on it...

@nigel1034 Thanks, eh!

@paolaita673 This version of "God Bless The Child" was recorded from Billie performing live at the Monterey Jazz Festival in 1958. You can find it on iTunes.

I used to be crazy about this Ad : It has it all, the scene, Billie's music, and most of all
that daughter we all dream to have. THANK YOU for posting it !
Omg, Lexus copied this ad! search for "lexus debussy" and you get the same ad..
