I love this song. While listening I came across Joe Cocker's version. Simone adds sensuality, and some pictures here reflects just what that is. Cocker's so painfully awesome as well. Difficult to decide which is better. But thank you for sharing.
Marilyn manson covered this song.. always wanted to know the original!! no wonder even he said this song was too dark for them... its practically suicidal... love it!!
Nina Simone In Concert (live recording, 1964), Simone for the first time openly addresses the racial inequality that was prevalent in the United States with the song "Mississippi Goddam". It was her response to the murder of Medgar Evers and the bombing of a church in Birmingham, Alabama, killing four black children. The song was released as a single,
three days after the murder of Martin Luther King, Jr. She dedicated the whole performance to him and sang "Why? (The King Of Love Is Dead)"
god I wish they would go back to the old bond style!!! you know cool gadgets,evil vilans with crazy killing methods, and exotic chicks with sexy names
and btw (sorry) you did a great job amorepop and the song .. her voice .. lordy, lordy, have mercy .. she's incredible. much love in new year all !!!!
are you 'haters' for real .. sheesh .. it's a sensual song and all the photos .. black white japanese white white white are very sensual. please ALL 'bitchers' get off the color card....it's getting damn old.
uhm... why all the white people. why nothing but white people in this clip? and i dare anyone to say what i'm saying his wrong when there are NOTHING BUT WHITE PEOPLE IN THIS VIDEO whose sexuality is being facilitated by this Black woman singing. I would flag it just for that crazyness.
It's a totally valid complaint to say that there should be a lot more diversity in the clip, especially considering who Nina Simone was and what she stood for, but flagging it is a ridiculous response. Also, the sexuality is not being FACILITATED by a black woman singing. The video suggests that the images depict the sexuality of the song, not that a bunch of white people heard the song and suddenly jumped each other's bones. Your argument is overdrawn and this video is already overcensored.
Please - I love this song, but lately the filter at my office won't play it. Someone please post a less sexy version so I can hear this during the day. Thanks!
Never before have I seen a more beautiful video such as this. I've been searching for a better version of this song but, I did not know that it was the lovely voice of Ms. Simone. Such passion and power she has. It is as if your'e watching still photos of Adam and Eve in a erotic passionate way. True enough that love can almost never end. Thank you for this beautiful video. Pure genious. Such a pleasure to watch. :)
This song is sooooooo potent..."...and i don't care if u don't want me...i'm yours right now!" how deep and desperate and bittersweet is that?! I love it. It's like, she's in control but she's not. The original was a bit wierd for my taste, nothing as sexy as her version. Video was EXCELLENT. Kudos!
Ive allway's wanted to know who played sax. Ask your dad for me please. For me the sax part is the best i love it!! I had this tune when i was 18 i'm 60 now and still play it.
I agree with so many of the comments here! SUCH a soulful performance I dont' get tired of listening to it, such passion, such pain is transmitted through her voice and the lyrics and that saxophone penetrates your skin. Simply amazing!!!
Was this song originally for her? has it always been a Nina Simone song?
I have to wonder if she's doing scat cause she couldn't hit the notes.she's a great singer,I would have loved to hear her almost scream the passion the lyrics suggest
nina simone voices touchs the soul, aretha sang sass and church, nina simone sings from the dark corners of the soul and at times there was light in her voice, she is a legend unmatched, talent came from places unseen by soul.
@retsefinam:just was thinking - before reading your comment - WHAT and how she touches my soul.you camo exactly to the point. when i take p.e.great "ella"... she was always positive and the light, nina in comparision is really the dark and painfull side.. thatfore was i surching and bringing to words. nevertheless... highest class!!!!!unbeatable still!!! love eva
i was just watching the color purple the other night.. and i feel like whoopi goldberg would make a good nina simone if they were ever to do a movie about her. anyways, this was the first song i ever heard by miss nina simone. and it remains my favorite.
gone are the days when people even had the attention span to listen to an entire song...
for those who like the beatles, they based their phrasing in the bridge of "michele" off of this song!!!!!!!! by this lady, the incomparable nina simone
nina simone is on top of everything else in the whole freaking world oh my god it makes me sick listining to all of the music that is suppossed to be all the hype and even i have begun to believe that that is what musik really is
well this definately is one hell of a wake up call
Damn!!!!this could have been the greatest bond theme at all time, if only they used this. I thought it was from bond movie specially when you hears the
When McCartney played the song Michelle for john Lennon, Lennon suggested the "I love you" bridge. Lennon was inspired by a song he heard the previous evening, I Put A Spell On You by Nina
I agree this would have been probably the alltimate Bond theme song. I actually thuaght it was from a James Bond film. Also Lil Wayne does a great job with Misunderstood, another great from Nina.
yeah does sound like feelin good in background but screamin jay version is more scary to me than sensual like nina's probably tht screamin jay vid was scary as a whole
that's poe-na-gruh-fay@!
