∙ 14y agoBillie Holiday is famous for many songs, and most well known for singing the Blues.
A good example of a Blues that she sings is Fine and Mellow - there is a good YouTube video of it from 1957.
Another tune that people know is God Bless the Child.
My personal favorite of hers is Loverman.
She was known for having a very small instrument (barely an octave range) but the emotion that she was able to communicate has been arguably incomparable since.
