This thread is about how wonderful Billie Holiday is and how she's probably one of the most influential female singers of all time. Favorite song?

My favorite songs by her are Gloomy Sunday (probably my favorite song of all time), Summertime and Good Morning Heartache. Her vibrato is amazing.

I feel embarrassed to say this, but I've never heard a Billie Holiday song. :confused:

I feel embarrassed to say this, but I've never heard a Billie Holiday song. :confused:Me neither :confused: *embarrassment*

By the way, who's her?

I don't have a favourite song, but she's still a fantastic and hugely influential singer. Jazz in the post-war era would've been a profoundly different artform without her.
