A magic song from a magic voice
lyrics
Strange Fruit
Southern trees bear strange fruit
Blood on the leaves and blood at the root
Black bodies swinging in the southern breeze
Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees
Pastoral scene of the gallant south
The bulging eyes and the twisted mouth
Scent of magnolias, sweet and fresh
Then the sudden smell of burning flesh
Here is fruit for the crows to pluck
For the rain to gather, for the wind to suck
For the sun to rot, for the trees to drop
Here is a strange and bitter crop

Much buzzed about singer-songwriter Beth Hart, known for her raw and powerful blues-rock sound, and guitarist Joe Bonamassa, one of the best guitarists of his generation, will release their sophomore album of classic soul covers Seesaw on May 21, 2013
Seesaw is the follow up to 2011's Don't Explain, on which Slant called Hart "a simply peerless frontwoman;" AllMusic.com said "Bonamassa and band accent her every phrase with requisite rowdiness, sting and grit." About.com called the duo "a match made in Heaven" and MOJO praised their "potent musical chemistry." The album was nominated for a 2012 Blues Music Award.
Seesaw opens with a joyous horn reveille to kick off "Them There Eyes," made famous in 1939 by Billie Holiday—one of Hart's biggest inspirations. "My mother turned me on to this song when I was a kid," says Beth. "I love the bubbliness. It's sexy, it's fun, and it has a great swing to it." On the track "Nutbush City Limits," Hart wails with an intensity that would make Tina Turner proud, and her slow and soulful burn on "I Love You More Than You'll Ever Know" pairs dramatically with Bonamassa's smoking guitar. The tempo kicks up several notches with Hart's tight, rocking vocals on "Can't Let Go," from Lucinda Williams' Grammy-winning 1998 album Car Wheels On A Gravel Road. It's followed by her fierce cover of "Miss Lady," the Buddy Miles song that was originally produced by Jimi Hendrix. Hart revisits Melody Gardot's songbook to deliver a sultry, jazzy rendition of "If I Tell You I Love You." "See Saw," is a Don Covay/Steve Cropper composition from Aretha Franklin's 1968 album Aretha Now. The album closes with Hart's haunting and atmospheric version of "Strange Fruit," a song that began as a poem about American racism—and lynching—by Abel Meeropol.

"Strange Fruit" is a song performed most famously by Billie Holiday, who released her first recording of it in 1939, the year she first sang it. Written by the teacher Abel Meeropol as a poem, it exposed American racism, particularly the lynching of African Americans. Such lynchings had occurred chiefly in the South but also in all other regions of the United States. The writer, Abel, set it to music and with his wife and the singer Laura Duncan, performed it as a protest song in New York venues, including Madison Square Garden.
The song has been covered by numerous artists, as well as inspiring novels, other poems and other creative works. In 1978 Holiday's version of the song was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame. It was also included in the list of Songs of the Century, by the Recording Industry of America and the National Endowment for the Arts.
"Strange Fruit" was a poem written by Abel Meeropol, a Jewish high-school teacher from the Bronx, a protest against lynchings. He sometimes published under the pen name Lewis Allan, after two sons who were stillborn.

Eunice Kathleen Waymon (February 21, 1933 – April 21, 2003), better known by her stage name Nina Simone /ˈniːnə sɨˈmoʊn/, was an American singer, songwriter, pianist, arranger, and civil rights activist widely associated with jazz music. Simone aspired to become a classical pianist while working in a broad range of styles including classical, jazz, blues, folk, R&B, gospel, and pop.
Born the sixth child of a preacher's family in North Carolina, Simone aspired to be a concert pianist as a child. Her musical path changed direction after she was denied a scholarship to the prestigious Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia, despite a well-received audition. Simone was later told by someone working at Curtis that she was rejected because she was black. She then began playing in a small club in Philadelphia to fund her continuing musical education to become a classical pianist and was required to sing as well. She was approached for a recording by Bethlehem Records, and her rendition of "I Loves You Porgy" became a smash hit in the United States in 1958. Over the length of her career, Simone recorded more than 40 albums, mostly between 1958 — when she made her debut with Little Girl Blue — and 1974.

To date, she has released five solo studio albums and a compilation album, The Annie Lennox Collection (2009). She is the recipient of eight Brit Awards, four Grammy Awards and an MTV Video Music Award. In 2002, Lennox received a Billboard Century Award; the highest accolade from Billboard Magazine.

Here is fruit for the crows to pluck, For the rain to gather, for the wind to suck, For the sun to rot, for the trees to drop, Here is a strange and bitter crop. (Traduction) Les arbres du Sud portent un étrange fruit, Du sang sur les feuilles et du sang aux racines, Un corps noir qui se balance dans la brise du Sud, Étrange fruit suspendu aux peupliers. Scène pastorale du valeureux Sud, Les yeux exorbités et la bouche tordue, Parfum de magnolia doux et frais, Puis l'odeur soudaine de chair brûlée ! C'est un fruit que les corbeaux cueillent, Rassemblé par la pluie, aspiré par le vent, Pourri par le soleil, laché par les arbres, C'est là une étrange et amère récolte. -

Billie Holiday-Strange fruit- HD
A magic song from a magic voice lyrics Strange Fruit Southern trees bear strange fruit Blood on the leaves and blood at the root Black bodies swinging in the southern breeze Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees Pastoral scene of the gallant south The bulging eyes and the twisted mouth Scent of magnolias, sweet and fresh Then the sudden smell of burning flesh Here is fruit for the crows to pluck For the rain to gather, for the wind to suck For the sun to rot, for the trees to drop Here is a strange and bitter crop -

Taken from the Still Crazy Soundtrack featuring the Brilliant Bill Nighy and Billy Connelly. Excellent film about a once famous band from the 70's trying to re-ignite their careers. Decided to upload a good quality version because the others are awful. This song deserves better! Go and buy the DVD. -
Strange Fruit (Lyrics) - Billie Holiday
Strange fruit was origionaly a poem writen by a Jewish school teacher, Abel Meerpool, after seeing a photograph of a lynching in a civil-rights magazine. The photo was a shot of 2 black men hanging from a tree after they had been lynched in Marion, Indiana on August 7, 1930. The two men are the "Strange Fruit." -

Rokia Traoré - Strange Fruit ( Né So - 2016)
Strange Fruit (Fruta rara, en español) es una pieza musical de 1939 de la cantante afroamericana Billie Holiday que se hizo mundialmente famosa. Compuesta y escrita por Abel Meeropol, la canción fue una de las obras de arte que predicó con más fuerza en contra de los linchamientos en los estados del sur de los EE. UU. y uno de los primeros lemas del movimiento por los derechos civiles estadounidenses. La expresión Strange Fruit se estableció como símbolo de los linchamientos. En la canción se habla del cuerpo de un negro que cuelga de un árbol. La letra obtiene su fuerza emocional de confrontar la imagen bucólica del sur tradicional con la realidad de los linchamientos. En la segunda estrofa, por ejemplo, se dice: Pastoral escena del galante sur/los ojos abultados, la boca torcida/el arom... -

Much buzzed about singer-songwriter Beth Hart, known for her raw and powerful blues-rock sound, and guitarist Joe Bonamassa, one of the best guitarists of his generation, will release their sophomore album of classic soul covers Seesaw on May 21, 2013
Seesaw is the follow up to 2011's Don't Explain, on which Slant called Hart "a simply peerless frontwoman;" AllMusic.com said "Bonamassa and band accent her every phrase with requisite rowdiness, sting and grit." About.com called the duo "a match made in Heaven" and MOJO praised their "potent musical chemistry." The album was nominated for a 2012 Blues Music Award.
Seesaw opens with a joyous horn reveille to kick off "Them There Eyes," made famous in 1939 by Billie Holiday—one of Hart's biggest inspirations. "My mother turned me on to this song when I was a kid," says Beth. "I love the bubbliness. It's sexy, it's fun, and it has a great swing to it." On the track "Nutbush City Limits," Hart wails with an intensity that would make Tina Turner proud, and her slow and soulful burn on "I Love You More Than You'll Ever Know" pairs dramatically with Bonamassa's smoking guitar. The tempo kicks up several notches with Hart's tight, rocking vocals on "Can't Let Go," from Lucinda Williams' Grammy-winning 1998 album Car Wheels On A Gravel Road. It's followed by her fierce cover of "Miss Lady," the Buddy Miles song that was originally produced by Jimi Hendrix. Hart revisits Melody Gardot's songbook to deliver a sultry, jazzy rendition of "If I Tell You I Love You." "See Saw," is a Don Covay/Steve Cropper composition from Aretha Franklin's 1968 album Aretha Now. The album closes with Hart's haunting and atmospheric version of "Strange Fruit," a song that began as a poem about American racism—and lynching—by Abel Meeropol.

Lyrics:
Southern trees bear a strange fruit
Blood on the leaves and blood at the root
Black body swinging in the Southern breeze
Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees
Pastoral scene of the gallant South,
The bulging eyes and the twisted mouth,
Scent of magnolia sweet and fresh,
Then the sudden smell of burning flesh!
Here is fruit for the crows to pluck,
For the rain to gather, for the wind to suck,
For the sun to rot, for the trees to drop,
Here is a strange and bitter crop.
(Traduction)
Les arbres du Sud portent un étrange fruit,
Du sang sur les feuilles et du sang aux racines,
Un corps noir qui se balance dans la brise du Sud,
Étrange fruit suspendu aux peupliers.
Scène pastorale du valeureux Sud,
Les yeux exorbités et la bouche tordue,
Parfum de magnolia doux et frais,
Puis l'odeur soudaine de chair brûlée !
C'est un fruit que les corbeaux cueillent,
Rassemblé par la pluie, aspiré par le vent,
Pourri par le soleil, laché par les arbres,
C'est là une étrange et amère récolte.

Strange Fruit (Fruta rara, en español) es una pieza musical de 1939 de la cantante afroamericana Billie Holiday que se hizo mundialmente famosa. Compuesta y escrita por Abel Meeropol, la canción fue una de las obras de arte que predicó con más fuerza en contra de los linchamientos en los estados del sur de los EE. UU. y uno de los primeros lemas del movimiento por los derechos civiles estadounidenses. La expresión Strange Fruit se estableció como símbolo de los linchamientos.
En la canción se habla del cuerpo de un negro que cuelga de un árbol. La letra obtiene su fuerza emocional de confrontar la imagen bucólica del sur tradicional con la realidad de los linchamientos. En la segunda estrofa, por ejemplo, se dice: Pastoral escena del galante sur/los ojos abultados, la boca torcida/el aroma de las magnolias, dulce y fresco/y de pronto el olor de la carne quemada.(Wikipedia)
Los árboles del Sur frutos extraños,
sangre en las hojas y sangre en la raíz,
cuerpo negro balanceándose en la brisa del sur,
fruta extraña que cuelga de los álamos.
Escena pastoral del sur galante,
los ojos hinchados y la boca torcida,
aroma de las magnolias, dulce y fresco,
entonces el repentino olor a carne quemada.
FRUTA EXTRAÑA
De los árboles del sur cuelga una fruta extraña,
Sangre en las hojas y sangre en la raíz,
Cuerpos negros balanceándose en la brisa del sur,
Extraña fruta que cuelga de los álamos.
Escena pastoral del galante sur,
Los ojos saltones y la boca torcida,
Aroma de las magnolias, dulce y fresco,
y el repentino olor a carne quemada.
Aquí está la fruta para que la arranquen los cuervos ,
Para que la lluvia la tome, para que el viento la aspire,
Para que el sol la pudra,para que los árboles la suelten,
Esta es una extraña y amarga cosecha.

Southern trees bear a strange fruit
Blood on the leaves and blood at the roots
Black bodies swingin' in the southern breeze
Strange fruit hangin' from the poplar trees
Pastoral scene of the gallant south
The bulging eyes and twisted mouth
Scent of magnolias sweet and fresh
And the sudden smell of burning flesh
Here is the fruit
For the crows to pluck
For the rain to gather
For the wind to suck
For the sun to rot
For the tree to drop
