HEAR IT: Andra Day breathes new life into Billie Holiday classic ‘All Of Me’

[PeaceNHarmony]

Very nice - more of an impersonation than an interpretation, but excellent nonetheless -

Anxious to see the film but wasn't crazy about this performance or arrangement. I have
to blame whoever put this together for Andra. I'm sure they had her purposely resrict
her range to mimic Billie's but though Billie didn't have all those octaves she swung like
crazy. Her timing and phrasing singers have been trying to reproduce over 60 years now...
