About This Song

About "I'll Get By (As Long As I Have You) (with Teddy Wilson & His Orchestra) (Take 2)" by Billie Holiday

Holiday's take on 'I'll Get By' is a declaration of resilience wrapped in swing. The second take finds her voice both tender and determined, as if clinging to a promise against the odds. The emotional tension lies in the gap between the upbeat arrangement and the quiet desperation of the lyric.
