The essence of cool
Duke Ellington called Billie Holiday "the essence of cool," a reference to her equipoise in performance. One of the most influential jazz vocalists of all time, Holiday had a controlled emotional power that transformed even trite ballads into romantic short stories.
Hope this helped!

Answer: She is referencing her father. The song reminded Holiday of her father .

Explanation: When Holiday heard the lyrics, she was deeply moved by them — not only because she was a Black American but also because the song reminded her of her father, who died at 39 from a fatal lung disorder, after being turned away from a hospital because he was a Black man.

Think of the best meal you've ever had. I want you to write one paragraph describing that meal. Use lots of figurative language
jenyasd209 [6]

Hey there, here is my answer:

One time, my grandma made spaghetti and it was the best spaghetti ever. I put the noodles in my mouth and the flavors overwhelmed my mouth. I could taste every flavor. The delicious tomato sauce, the perfectly cooked noodles, the perfect meat, and there was some delicious cheese on top. On the side, there was cheesy garlic bread that melted into my mouth and made my mouth water. I wanted more, and more, and more. My stomach was filled with spaghetti but my mouth wanted to taste the flavors for longer. When I was finished, I was happy, I was content, my world was changed. That bowl of spaghetti changed my life. (This story may be a little overdramatized). Nevertheless, that spaghetti was DELICIOUS.

I hope you enjoyed this story of spaghetti goodness.
