Date: 1939
I believe this song is about a bitter and strange fruit that no on likes and will soon rot away. It may be an African American that has been hanged or lynched because it mentions burning flesh. The tone of this song is very dark and in a minor key I believe. I did not particularly like this song because it was a little too strange for me. This song may show us that American history had its Dark Ages but I am not entirely sure that is what this song means.
