Our Take

BILLIE HOLIDAY The Hits
Rating: 8.5

Ah, Billie Holiday. The woman, the legend, the voice that could make grown men weep and bring a smile to even the most hardened of hearts. With this compilation of the hits that made her a household name, we are treated to a journey through time, back to the smoky jazz clubs of yesteryear where Holiday reigned supreme.

From the hauntingly beautiful "Strange Fruit" to the toe-tapping "All of Me," this album is a testament to Holiday's incredible talent and range. Her voice, like velvet dipped in honey, wraps itself around each note with a passion and fervour that is truly unparalleled.

But what really sets this album apart is the raw emotion that Holiday brings to each and every track. You can feel her pain, her joy, her heartache, as if she is right there in the room with you, pouring her soul out in song.

Whether you're a die-hard fan or a newcomer to Holiday's music, this album is a must-listen. So dim the lights, pour yourself a glass of your favourite tipple, and let Billie Holiday's timeless tunes transport you to a world where love, loss, and everything in between reign supreme. Cheers, Billie. You've done it again.
