Billie Holiday - It's Like Reaching For The Moon Lyrics
It's like reaching for the moon
It's like reaching for the sun
It's like reaching for the stars
Reaching for you
How can I expect an angel to love me
Who is so divine as you are?
It's like flying without wings
Playing fiddle without strings
And a million other things
No one can do
Though, my hopes are slender
In my secret heart I pray you'll surrender soon
Though, it's like reaching for the moon

Billie is perfection.
i love you
💖💖💖
this is the recording i want at my funeral for a send off
quelle superbe chanson ,on dirait qu'elle a moins de succès que beaucoup d'autres de b holliday,certainement sous estimée
Doesn’t matter how you got here, just enjoy the music
une de mes préférés de billie holyday,j'en ressens toujours des frissons quand je l'entend chanter cette merveilleuse chanson
The Goddess of Swing, Miss Brown to you, the one and only Billie Holiday.
Her voice is so manificent on this track. Just loveliness and feeling that touches me so deeply.
I just heard this in the radio and time stopped
this and 'They Say' are ny absolute favourites of
Ms Holiday's songs ❤
I sampled this wonderful piece of music history and I think I did a good job since I tried to leave enough room for this great song to add its distinct feeling and merging it into something more modern. Feel free to check it out :)

+thofabyq Yo.. saying you did a good job really makes it worser than your song already is

@Benjamin Barnes i thinkhe means "angel"
que preciosa voz tenia esta mujer no hay palabras para describir lo hermosa que era su voz
Absolutamente' Fabuloso!
Orig. issue on Brunswick 7702 (78rpm), w/ Guess Who. Recorded in New York, 30 JUN 1936. (I Cried for You & These Foolish Things were both recorded at this session, too.)
Jonah Jones tp/ Johnny Hodges as/ Harry Carney cl, bari/ Teddy Wilson p/ Lawrence Lucie g/ John Kirby b/ Cozy Cole d/ Billie Holiday voc. :I:
A lineup to die for...cookin' with gas...Harry wanted his baritone to sound like Rollini's bass sax. And Jonah Jones takin us home. She-ite!
I thought it was Lester Young on the sax -- Johnny Hodges did an splendid job.
What a band, what a voice!
one of my favorites from that period ... sing it Lady Day!
So deep....
the emotional load she put in her singing is so good.. I don't think any singer will be able to imitate this, I just feel it! she's one of the best!
many tries though. One of the very few who can sing songs jazzly and still sharp. She is in my top5.
simply a work of genius
