Billie Holliday declared Kay Starr “the only white woman who could sing the blues”, and there’s no doubt that while you are listening to this moody ballad of luck and love, you will know exactly what she meant.

She’s also sassy AF which you will totally get from this 1951 colour video of the singer crooning her song which became a Gold Record and made it to #1 on the charts in the U.S.

All the glitter. All the glamour. All that timeless cool.

Thought she was a useful spirit to inspire.

Hope you feel the same.

Until next time,
