I grew up listening to the only and only Billie Holiday, her voice is timeless, it moves me just like it did when i first heard her, many moons ago in good old east London. I adore her
Yes, Billy Holiday always went for the bad guy in the crowd...and yes she could cuss and fight just as good as a man. So in a way she could hold her own in any crowd of people. She once faught a man who made negative remarks about her race and spit on her fur coat. Ms. Holiday was one hell'ave woman if you ask me. She had to be, she lived during the time of Jim Crow.

Does anyone know the story behind this song? Was Billie actually in a relationship like this or not?

I checked some of the "divas" renditons of this song (Streisand, Diana Ross ..) and that was simply abominable compared to Billie.
