Not a song for a ... ( 2 months ago by macuser5555)

Not a song for a white man to sing. It's about hanging black people in the south. He probably doesn't even understand the words he's singing, lame.

This song was ... ( 2 months ago by eddy189)

This song was written by Abel Meeropol, a white Jewish high-school teacher from the Bronx and his wife, a white woman sang it first.

Heavy mooded song, well done, but no Billie Holliday

i like the piano ... ( 2 months ago by brightcabfire)

i like the piano playing a lot, and the lead guys really handsome and im sure he knows what the song is about and i also think he was really brave to take up such a huge challenge as a billie holiday song.... but it didn't hit the spot for me. maybe if it was just an audio on better speakers.

Pre text... I am ... ( 2 months ago by FrenchSerena08)

Pre text... I am not a racist... but really common what is this guy singing a slave song about hangings in the american south.. I mean these things have grave significance and are not to be sung by people all over for the sake of appearing "connected" and emotional.. These songs are real. And sung by this man its a PR plug on a tv show no more ..

its best sungd by a women.
(sorry my englis)

i don't see ... ( 1 month ago by cythereanbeauty)

i don't see anything wrong with him singing this song; can a white man not also feel the same sadness about the horrible things that happened? the people who say he shouldn't be singing this song are the kinds of people who caused segregation in the first place and therefore, the other atrocities. we're all human. let it be.

bonjour a tous je veux just rectifier la grosse bourde du presentateur cette chanson na pas du tout ete ecrite par billie holliday mais par un enseignant juif habitant le bronx sous forme dun poem appele "bitter fruit". Cet homme s'appelle Abel Meeropol. Voila je pense kil est juste de lui rendre son dut... les presentateurs francais devraient mieux se renseigner avant douvrir leur bouche pleine dignorance.....

Hi first of all if ... ( 1 month ago by neptunely)

Hi first of all if you really knew what you are talking about you would have known that this song is not a slave song at all, it has been written by a whit man, a jew actually, who was horrified when he saw some pictures of "strange fruit" so your words don't make any sense at all... you are talking about something that you are ignorant about....

He can sing it if ... ( 1 month ago by Jairox99)

He can sing it if he wants, he has a right to but that doesn't mean it sounds good......

Just to be ... ( 3 weeks ago by corniche)

Just to be perfectly clear to all the retards saying he doesn't know what he's talking about... French, unlike Americans, are a bit more knowledgeable as far as foreign languages are concerned, and the singer happens to be French AND American. So shut your trap, because he obviously knows what he's singing about. And the whole "he's white, he's not allowed to sing it" bullshit, is just plain ridiculous... Why wouldn't white guys be able to feel empathy for such a tragic part of History?

The woman you're ... ( 3 weeks ago by queenblanche)

The woman you're probably talking about is Billie Holiday.

Yes because calling ... ( 3 weeks ago by NoirMusic)

Yes because calling people with a different opinion a retard makes you the voice of reason on this page. I like Tori Amos' version of this song, I like Billie's version better. With respect to any white person singing a song from the perspective of a black person dealing with the emotions of a lynching I would say they are showing a certain lack of sensitivity. It's like Bing Crosby singin' ol' man river. Sure he CAN do it but do you really want to be that guy? I'd feel like a fool...

Also, if you are ... ( 3 weeks ago by NoirMusic)

Also, if you are going to brag about the linguistic superiority of the french you might want to make sure you know what you are talking about. Just a few examples...blood AT the leaves or ON the leaves? Blood at the leaves...how? Also those black bodies are swing from poplar trees or popol trees? Poplar of course, and why is that significant? He doesn't know, and I don't think you do either.

Because one can't ... ( 3 weeks ago by corniche)

Because one can't mix up two prepositions while singing live, especially when he is moved by what he's singing about?
I've seen them live, and they made a speech about the events that took place before singing. They covered this song because they do know its meaning. People who said: "he's not allowed to sing it because he's not black" are retards, period. You don't like their version, tough luck, that's not what I'm talking about. You don't know shit about me or them, so don't judge either.

People are allowed ... ( 3 weeks ago by NoirMusic)

People are allowed to sing whatever they want. When I put my horn down I can step to the mic and sing "I'm every woman", the question is how "retarded" (your favorite word) will I look? Same is true here, only worse. Because these two guys can't possibly understand what it is to be called "Nigger", to know if they drive in the wrong area they are going to jail for no reason, to know your family was raped, beaten and SOLD. You think they know what it is to be black in America? Really?

I teach English in ... ( 3 weeks ago by corniche)

I teach English in a French school to a lot of kids whose parents come from former french colonies. I showed them pictures of black slaves in the US, I told them stories about how dreadful their living conditions are, facts, figures. I also did several lessons on immigration, and you know, lots of them were black and couldn't care less to see some black slaves working in cotton fields. Of course, a white person can't experience what blacks endured, but can't they understand their distress?...

Intellectually ... ( 3 weeks ago by NoirMusic)

Intellectually perhaps. I don't make an absolute rule. I think it is less a skin color and more a life thing. Bing Crosby sure didn't have a clue, I don't think the guys from A.a.r.o.n have had the life that would give them the clue. A POW whose done slave labour sure could, white or whatever, maybe even anyone who been a minority and mistreated. I've been the white guy in a 95% Asian community and been called Gweilo so I do have some feeling for racism. I still don't think I would do it.
