One of my favorite standards, other than bulky, how the hell do you play a song, and 'was sung by Billie Holiday, as it does to make just a song, and' was played in a thousand ways, all hands more 'jazz greats have touched and Coltrane's sax has magically told.

The versions that have been put on air a few days ago, played and sung by me in the solo piano and sang along with the fight, I know they are a little hard and angular, especially in the style of the piano, the rest is the voice of Billie Holiday told nostalgia and melancholy, I am convinced that the text conceals a good deal of anger, feeling that I have also heard the sax of Trane. Besides the pain of the loss of any kind, occurs often (thankfully not always and not for all) with anger.

What I hear in the song, and 'the growth of the feeling of nostalgia and loss, and that at' such and then transforms into something else, something magmatic and confused, to get through in a slow fade. Words The Meaning of the Blues, and the key text that echoes everywhere, you do not know, you do not know, you will also be emphasized that passage in an exaggerated, obsessive, difficult to describe a feeling like 'common but so 'underwear through the notes.

  You do not know what love is (Don Raye / Gene De Paul)

You do not know what love is
until you've learned The Meaning of the Blues
Until you've loved a love you've HAD to lose
you do not know what love is

you do not know how lips hurt
until you've kissed and HAD to pay the cost
until you've flipped your heart and you have lost
you do not know what love is

do you know how a lost heart feels
the thought of reminiscing
and how Lips That Taste Of Tears
Lose Their taste for kissing

you do not know how hearts burn
for love that can not live yet never dies
until you've faced with sleepless eyes Each Dawn
you do not know what love is

you do not know how hearts burn
for love that can not live yet never dies
Each Dawn until you'v faced with sleepless eyes
you do not know what love is ..... what love is ....
