Blue Moon - Billie Holiday - MP3 instrumental karaoke

Originally written by Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart in 1934 as a radio theme tune to American radio program Hollywood Hotel, the dazzling cinema of “Blue Moon” was first popularized by US jazz great Billie Holiday who captured a cover of the song for her 1952 album Billie Holiday Sings. Billie Holiday's version of "Blue Moon" does justice to her luscious smoky voice, which savours every word to a background tapestry of rich jazz. "Blue Moon" is a jazz standard and has appeared in numerous films throughout the decades including Marx Brothers' At the Circus (1939), All About Eve (1950), Viva Las Vegas (1964), Grease (1978) and Apollo 13 (1995). It has been remade by numerous artists over the decades, including Frank Sinatra, Ray Stevens, Amália Rodrigues, Elvis Presley, Sam Cooke, The Supremes, Cyndi Lauper, Bob Dylan, the Beatles, Beck, and Rod Stewart.
