The writing is unmatched... "a cigarette that bares lipstick traces/ an airline ticket to romantic places/....a fairground's painted swings/... these foolish things remind me of you"
This song is from the 1930s, but has so much transcendent soul... Etta's version is our absolute favorite, but Ella & Lady are close to it.
Check out three different versions from a few of our favorite ladies:
Billie Holiday
Etta James
Ella Fitzgerald
