Billie unknowingly helped me deal with Cold Turkey in Brooklyn as I sat beside the Hi Fi and listened to her sing knowing she knew what I was going through as I cried... I was a 34 year old guy at that time way back in the early 1980s... Still clean and sober in 2022... Still love to hear Lady Day sing it like it should be sung... An Angel that was destroyed by more than Smack.

she's unique, she's immortelle. some are annoyed by her voice, but it is exactly her voice that makes a stamp over hundreds other female jazz singers, inconfundible once you are a jazz listener, some people know THIS voice even if they don't listen to jazz usually

[@stephenm.klevas3637]

few tigers could get inside a song and make it seem like she was giving you a glimpse into her soul, you know that what she sang she lived and it shows in her expressions of joy, pain , anxiety, frustration and weariness. in other words, she was the real thing and now she's free, living on in the gift she left behind for us, her songs.

I first got introduced to Billie Holiday when I was at school by my old English teacher and I’ve listened to her music now for nearly 40 years. There’s something timeless about her music and voice. The true sign of a real superstar and in my opinion singers these days could take a lesson from her and the other jazz greats.

Everyday I play a musician on their birthday in my classroom while my students work, they're in 3rd grade. This morning I was torn between two birthdays, and Billie is one of them. This comment helped me decide to play her in hopes that one day one of my kiddos will take her along with them as you did. Thank you and Happy Birthday, Billie!
