I like how she has her own version of this song and then a version AS Billie
Most definitely. ANDRA DAY is a beauty .
I cannot wait to see this movie 🍿 I want to see this in the theater for sure.
♥♥♥♥♥
I first thought that they used Billie's recording of the song, but she said that all the songs she did the recordings I was like wow! She really sounds like her. Andra is going to knock this out of the park, hoping she gets recognized!
I know right! Me too
She sounded just like her when she first started but she stun me when she started singing on this movie fr fr
Andra's voice is haunting and absolutely breath taking. This is amazing
She is the only singer who could give her the honors she deserves
Listen to Jill Scott sing it
@@gregorysinclair7248 i love jill but , andra day is one of a kind each icon has someone who can match them well , andra is that person .

She is one of the few but not the only one, Nina Simone is a legend and her rendition was amazing.
So haunting, yet so warm and beautiful. Ms. Day is a breakout...Shesh the chills.
Did y’all see the trailer? OMG
Had the hair on my arms at attention
@@cchisolm92cc : Same
Absolutely! I have heard the original version many times, and it is a very "moving", sad and truthful song. But, I also got chills hearing Andra's version. Every hair standing up... incredible!!
Lol i seen the movie it gave me chills
This song is bone chilling and beautiful at the same time!
andra deserves more. her voice is like shea butter just pure and good for your soul!
When people ask who is she I wanna get a slipper out lol 😂
Her voice makes me feel electricity....she is just amazing!!!
Crazy I found you here! You’re woke! 🙏🏽
More? I mean yes, every good artist deserves their recognition but the fact that you are able to be accepted while doing your rendition of something as legendary as Strange fruit is not small at all, it is a great honor.
Rest in powerful peace Lady Day🙏⚘
In order to imitate Billie, your phrasing has to be on point and this is a prime example of how to do it.
Yes billies phrasing has actually been studied by music majors . Her phrasing was impeccable
She is the reincarnation of Billie Holliday. She is amazing 😍👏😍👏😍👏
Yes she is
Yesssss!!!#
My father was a big Lady Day fan. He bought the Commodore recording when it came out in 1939--he said for "Fine And Mellow" on the B-side. I've been playing it a lot since the George Floyd murder.
And the Oscar goes to.......deservedly so.
Holy Mary Mother of God, this is beautiful!
Our modern day Billie Holiday!!! This is Magnificent!
Great! She's the perfect person to portray Billie Holiday.
Damn she sounds just like Billie, love it❤
I said the exact same thing 👌💯
Looks like her too fr fr
She sounds just like Ms Holiday...💙💕 Love love love
The best billie would be proud! 💜
Geez Miss Day!!!! I love me some Billie and you have done her so much justice! I believe she would be stunned and proud! Love you! Extremely talented sister! I cannot wait to see this movie!
Her natural voice is similiar but how she change it to match Billie, I am speechless. Started the movie and couldn't believe it was her singing. Lots of coaching here
I love the way she would embody Billie ‘s spirit and honor her as she tells her story
Do you believe?........that voices get reincarnated?....this IS the Lady Billie Holiday 2021!....YES!
I was just thinking this and up came your comment !
this vocal tone is very charming, congratulations success Andra ... 😍💕
Sheer chills y'all..
Incredible. Magical and haunting. 🎭
I was born in Marion, Indiana where the lunching took place that inspired the poem that Mrs. Holiday made this song from. My Grandmother was a young woman walking home from work the night this happened (cleaning for white folks) when she heard the commotion and decided to take a different way home. I didn’t know the songs connection to this particular lunching until information surfaced related to this new film. Wow! What a voice. Congratulations Ms. Day!
So talented and beautiful just like Billie ~ looking forward to the Oscar and more from this amazing artist!
Hot and smooth
She has an amazing voice
Absolutely incredible
🥺 ❤️ Wow, queen, you did it again 😢 you giving me chills. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

OMGshh! I just heard Andrà on Jimmy Fallon! Beautifully done! You gave me chill bumps, made my eyes well up with tears & purely captivated me! You totally embody Billie Holiday! Thank You for sharing your Gift! 💝😘
Fabulous!!! This is the new talent we must support! Amazing artist, the way her voice sounds just like Billie's is unbelievable!! 👏🏼
Bravo!!! Andra Day sings it with great mastery.
SHE'S AMAZING!! GRACIAS POR REGALARNOS ESTA JOYA DE CANCION ANDRA, UNBELIEVABLE❤❤😍😍😍
Simplesmente sensacional...voz profunda e talentosa.
🤩 My body just got goosebumps!!! 🤍
Meravigliosa!❤ Love from Italy.
Reminds me of Amy Winehouse. Rest In Power..😔😔
I get what you’re saying but Amy Winehouse should remind you of Billie Holiday, Dinah Washington, Sarah Vaughan
WOW!
Southern trees bear a strange fruit
Blood on the leaves and blood at the root
Black bodies swinging in the southern breeze
Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees
Pastoral scene of the gallant South
The bulging eyes and the twisted mouth
Scent of magnolia, sweet and fresh
Then the sudden smell of burning flesh
Here is a fruit for the crows to pluck
For the rain to gather, for the wind to suck
For the sun to rot, for the tree to drop
Here is a strange and bitter crop
Andra Day 🎶✊⚘🎯🔖
Wow 👏🏼👏🏼
Muy buen tema saludos de Argentina 🇦🇷😊😝
JAY-SUS!! 🙌🏾
His great great grandchildren are singing Strange Fruit.
I’ve been a fan of Ms.Andra Day since The beginning and she deserves more recognition for her absolute phenomenal talent. But I must also say, nobody can do it quite like Miss. Billy Holiday could (May she Rest In Peace) Still an amazing cover of this
Infamous song. I’ve not heard that many artists attempt this song, perhaps because it’s reserved for a special kind of voice like both Cassandra Monique Batie (Andra) and Eleanora Fagan (Billy) are known for or perhaps because of they fear the same fate as Miss. Fagan (and others who publicly speak up against the wrongs of the system)
BRAVO Ms. Day!!🌺🌺
♥♥♥♥♥
perfection at its BEST
INCREDIBLE!
Perfection!! 😍🥰 Cannot wait to see this movie.
Amazing
incredible ❤❤❤
Magnificent and subtle
Lady Day ❤️
Billie Holiday was called Lady Day
She sound so much like earth a kitt
Yessss I was thinking the exact same
And looks like her too!
I thought I was the only one... kinda look like her too
Amazing voice :-)
She sounds just like her!!!! Wow! Amazing ❤
💖🙏
oh. my. goodness. god. periodt.
Lawd she can sing.
💯💯
👀DING DANG ANDRA! ARE YOU BILLIE REBORN! 🥰😍🥰😍🥰😍
Why is no one acknowledging the song just complementing her Voice.
Powerful message- Lady Day took a big chance in recording and performing this song. Sad that it is still appropriate today...evil never dies.
Really looking forward to this to see Andra’s portrayal of Billie. No offense to Diana Ross and I know a lot of people really liked “Lady Sings the Blues” but I could never get passed a skinny soprano playing Billie.
WOW,WOW. you got it girl
WOW.
👏🏽👏🏾👏👏🏻👏🏼❗😢😭 #thevelvetloungelife #strangefruit #billieholiday
🌸
Good , But the original always hits my soul
😎 I’m practicing this song 🎶
I’ll be singing, recording, editing then posting this Summer. Stay tuned... 🎼;

Another Diana Ross ? A ⭐️ is born!
Sorry Diana, but Andra Day is Billie Holiday. She shredded Lady Sings the Blues. LSTB was just a showcase vehicle to launch Diana solo career using Billie Holiday's story. Motown just used the story to gloss Diana's career. This is the story that should have been told. Motown told a plastic pop story and Hollywood seen through it. Andra Day deserves an Oscar for her performance. She embodied Miss Holiday. If one takes a deeper look into Diana's portrayal, she is actually playing Diana Ross. Now, the movie LSTB, is a classic peice of pop art and well acted, but it isn't Billie Holiday it is Miss Ross.
Tiene un aire a canción de 007. 👏😍
すき😌❤️
Chegou o comentário brasileiro 🇧🇷❤
Lady day Billie. holiday👍😃😄😄🌇😍🕺
First one here
Amy Winehouse got so much from her.
Diana who? This is how it's done!
