QUOTE(░░░░ @ Jan 14 2015, 03:53 PM)  of course, her mild manner is perfect for the likes of this morning and loose women (when she isn't passing out post-performance). she has that "mum" feel which helps her sell her music to the older market. she will be fine. (don't get me wrong, i too would love to see her do a dance album or even work with contemporary producers as she does have a lot of potential but realistically it isn't ever going to happen because first of all she doesn't want it herself) Which reminds me... What a beaut  :/ |

Oh no! I'm sure I'll enjoy this album, but I really like her original material so I hope the wait for album 4 isn't too long. She sounds really good on the songs in that video so yay, didn't realise we were getting something from her this soon.

Apparently "Get happy" is the first single, which is weird cause I don't see it on the original Billie Holiday album tracklist… What is it? Anyway, her vocals on this are amazing

I am very interested how she interoperates 'Strange Fruit' as it is such an emotive and heart-breaking song. I am not sure it will be the same out of the context in which Billie was coming from, which made it one of the most honest and emotional songs possible. Hopefully Rebecca can manage to make sure that some of that original feeling is kept.

Is this a cover of an entire album, as opposed to an album of songs by different artists? That is a bizarre idea, although I'll take Rebecca's voice on anything and I probably won't know the majority of these songs. BRING IT.

As I suspected, despite every article about this album claiming its a track by track cover of the Billie Holiday album, its nothing of the sort. It does include some Billie Holiday covers but only 4 of the tracks (*) are from the classic album
Tracklisting 1. Get Happy 2. Fine and Mellow 3. Embraceable You 4. That Ole Devil Called Love 5. Blue Moon 6. I Thought About You* 7. Summertime 8. I'll Never Smile Again 9. Lover Man (Oh Where Can You Be) 10. All Of Me 11. God Bless the Child* 12. What Is This Thing Called Love 13. Stormy Weather 14. Lady Sings the Blues* 15. Willow Weep For Me* 16. Don't Explain 17. My Man |
