I can almost imagine how the microphones where put... incredible we do not do these things anymore. It made the music so real... go figure :-/

@ExperienceSam Thanks for your comment. I feel the same, but: Don't despair, even today there are rays of light: 2007's BIOSHOCK game (a pretty morbid and bloody if somewhat artsy experience btw) did a beautiful thing by bringing a whole lot of wonderfull music to an unprepared new audience. This particular song being the featured one. There is a lot of enthusiastic response to the bioshock soundtrack on utube and elswhere. God bless Billie!

@watcherof47 okay & thanks

@719kai719 She sings so, because it is her own song. And this is a Version maybe 20 Years after first Recording. I like it very much too. For me is BH the Greatest. But take a look to Anita O' Day. She's very well too and was a funny Person (Tip: Live in Tokyo '63)

@FlauschigeFeder Hi! Versuche es mit "The Complete Billie Holiday on Verve" (10CD Box) Auf CD4 oder CD6 könntest du fündig werden. Es sind private Aufnahmen so wie Rehearsals darauf enthalten. Die Box lohnt sich auf jeden Fall komplett. Gruß und ich hoffe ich konnte helfen

Es gibt eine Studioaufnahme von dem Song die ich vergeblich suche. Man hört wie sie die Stühle rücken, den Verkehr durch das offene Fenster und ein paar Leute die sich im Studio im Hintergrund unterhalten. Nichts davon stört die Stimmung des Songs, eine unglaubliche Leichtigkeit.

After hearing Billie for the first time I knew she would be with all my life.

Range? She had almost no vocal range, which made her talent all the more impressive.

Its kinda sad that the most of my generation dislike something like this. I mean, listening to that pop crap and saying that this is shit?! That voice, that emotion - incredible!
