63-Nina Simone - Mississippi Goddam

[Sabstance]

FOR TROY DAVIS. WE ARE A PEOPLE OF HARMONY NOT JUSTICE. WE CANNOT BE HANGING PEOPLE LIKE THAT..

[thrillscience]

I've been re-listening to these, after hearing the fabulous Kim Nalley reinterpret them. If you like Nina Simone, take a listen to Kim Nalley.

I disliked this...because she seems without energy...and just miserable. I a big fan of her...but this is by far the worst performance of this song. She has more energy in it. RIP Miss SImone

@lukosius1221 You want ENERGY? Maybe you're looking for someone to work for you. Do yourself a favour, listen with your eyes closed.

this is rock and roll

[Diva2104]

so appropriate NOW!!! "Tea Party has me so upset, Republicans made me lose my rest and everybody knows about Sarah Palin.....GODDAMN.

RIP beloved Nina, your words will never lose their power

[Travagliod]

Hey Guys, what does she mean when she says the following lines

" 'Washing the windows

"do it slow"

Picking the cotton

"do it slow" '

Do the governemnt tell people to be slow? if so why?

And you'd stop calling me Sister Sadie.

Who is or was Sister Sadie?

[pjam07pjam]

@Travagliod

it's: "too slow"

[CloverDealman]

More people need to view this - brilliant!

[PAPPACLART]

[Embarcadero24]

Fantastic, Great video. Nina Simone is the best!

[biloxijoel]

What a worthless song and singer! Ive been to every state, and MS is the best!

How dare this brain dead auntjamima disparage the dignity of MS.

Rot in hell you ugly bongo liped, wide nostriled gorilla!

I feel this song is by this time beyond it's purpose. Sorry. She doesn't even sound into it.

[seanpharron]

@cj7849 your are an idiot

[bigbaddress]

prehaps you've never been oppressed - currently in the united states we have a LARGE group of people - the LGBT community - who have yet to gain their equality...in a country where all people are "created equal"...this song is very relevant!

[lewlew00]

you want her to stand up on piano or take a shank to someone? the song is no way beyond it's purpose.

[seanpharron]

@cj7849 you are an idiot

[contadonazai]
