  • Finally I found this song! :D

  • Eric Burdon & The Animals have a great version of this too. :)

  • Nina Simone's best cover.

    R.I.P.

  • she did the best covers

  • Amazing

  • Ray lamontagne takes the cake for the best cover of this song. Hands down, we can all go home. He is an amazing singer. He owned the song like no other. Gill pretty much wrote and composed this song for Ray lamontagne 50 years earlier.

  • The best version of this song! The musical arrangement and Nina's vocals are amazing.

  • @christiankinney

    house points for the bass playing

  • Nina had this great ability for covering a song and making it hers from that point forward. Amazing voice and talent!

  • Hers is the best version of this song. No contest.

  • @hippielovers20 Blue Rodeo's version  to me

  • janis jopliin all the way

  • Great Bee Gees song...I prefer this cover version

  • i love it so much

  • ohh man thats was good song

  • I love me some Nina!

  • Best version HANDS DOWN!

  • "lololol I'm 14 and I love this song.. I'm SO unusual!" C'mon! Music have no age, just feel it man, feel it. ;D

  • I LOVE YOU PHILLIP MORRIS

  • Jan Kliewer & JJ Rousseau in Cliché - Bon appétit

  • Have A Listen To P P Arnolds Version Of TO LOVE SOMEBODY,Just As Good.......:o)

  • just amazing Nina!!!!!

  • Liquid chocolate.... exquisite.

  • Beautiful song!

  • If one day, a boy.. well.. a MAN sings me this song, eyes in the eyes. I sware I die !!

    This is, to me, the most wonderful love song of all the times !!

    How can it be soooo powerful ?

  • AWWW. i'm 19 and i feelin' this more than i feel for current musics. awww.

  • Love this version of this track! Didnt know it was a Bee Gee song tho.

  • When I saw 'I love you Phillip Morris' I truly thought that it was a man singing... silly me :)

  • @kentekent like me hahahah

  • If you're going to make a video comprised of the lyrics, it would help to get the lyrics right.

    e.g. The first few lines are actually:

    "There's a light, a certain kind of light

    THAT'S NEVER SHONE ON ME

    I want my life to be LIT with you, LIT with you..."

    no respect for the songwriters (Monsieurs Gibb) = drunken karaoke

  • One more time time Nina show how to do smething great whit something not so great. Thats a woman!Thats Nina Simone

  • "I Love you Phillip Morris" brought me here

  • @Weezing336 i@m watching it right now i like the medicine part :)

  • @minecraftoostzaan lol yeah

  • @Weezing336 loltrol it is on (dutch) tv i seriously LOVE this movie

  • I like this song.....

  • @wineseastars and I like you

  • I like this so song soooooooo much

  • This is the Nina Simone version, for real?

  • the original its not from the Bee gees because Janis Joplin is singing that song to...

  • @lokka58 As far as I know this was written by the Bee Gees in 1967. I think Janis did her version in 1969.

  • Not a bad version of this Bee Gees classic, she did a couple of their songs the other was I cant see nobody what brilliant songwriters the Bee Gees are.

  • This is so wonderful..

    Thank-you for making it..

  • i love you philips morris

  • if it weren't for joe strummer i would have never fallen in love with this woman. thank you joe. i miss you.

  • EXELENTE NINA POR SIEMPRE LA MEJOR

  • i love u yari : )

  • awesome ,,,,god bless nina and the video ,,,,,,owner both and happy new yr ,,,smiles

  • For someone who used music to influence change, speak about poverty, the difficulty of relationships and of course Love and Romance. I think she may be at the top of the best entertainers of all times. The fact that she lived some of this herself makes her even more awesome.

  • Nina didn't record this song first and it was originally written for Otis Redding which had different lyrics to this version and this version made the UK chart at number 5 and was released in January 1969 and was written by Barry and Robin Gibb

  • such a great song, shame about the lyrics LOL! :P x

  • non ne hai veramente idea.

  • Comment removed

  • whoever wrote the lyrics to this vid are obviously on crack!! seroiusly need to actually listen to the song then write the lyrics again!!!!!

  • @tonguepierced88 my thoughts exactly~

  • To love somebody - I dream about it every single night...

  • Beautiful!

  • Yes, was written by The Bee Gees

  • sounds like a man

  • No, actually, I think this song was written by the Bee Gees (Gibb Brothers) who first performed it. It was supposed to be covered by Otis Redding, but he sadly died in an plane accident before he was able to record his version of this song. Can you imagine what he could have done with it?! Still, Nina Simone's is my absolute favorite version. Ditto Joe Strummer's comment about Ms. Simone!

  • OMG I cant beloeve she's the 1 who did the original version of this song!!!!

  • @Afrodite700

  • 17 people don't know what it is to love somebody

  • the credit to g.g.

  • I'm in love with this song, with Miss Simone's singing, just lovely.

  • thumbs up if u're here because you heard this song on 'I Love You Phillip Morris' and liked it :D

  • @cla338 so true! ;-)

  • Sorry to hear another song that completely ruins the song -- no emotion or style, sounds like a robot singing - apologies should be sent to the Bee Gees.

  • Comment removed

  • @waynelee3333 pfwahahahhaa you have nothing in common with music.

  • i do love this song!! thank you for posting 

  • The way I LOVE YOU sister soul....God Bless, Peace, LOVE, Light! :)

  • Wonderful !!! The best version . I love this <3

  • Yeah. What can you say?

    I also like the Animal's version . . . that swirling crazy intro into the tune grabbed me the first time I heard it (many, many years ago . . . .).

  • your lyrics are totally messed up

  • it's on the soundtrack of the comedy "i love you, phillip morris" starring jim carrey

  • Good work. I like your video.

  • wonderful

  • ...Make me cry.

  • wish I could hear more great stuff like this on a regular basis.

    Cambridge Radio has to be the worst ever.

    Miss my Motown

  • This and all that Nina Simone sing its give my heart something specal , just love everthing wih her .

    Thank to you amazingphoebe for this :)

    I wish you all the best in life

  • baby you don't know what it's like

  • Nina Simone had been praising the Bee Gees as song writers before the group was really massive. Nina Simone recorded this after the Bee Gees and it was her second top 10 hit in the U.K.

  • NINA SIMONE's the best. she plays the piano so beautiful :-) :-***

  • So very very good... It's great in the I love you philip morris movie...

  • "Let Nina Simone rule the world!" Joe Strummer

  • @Papeversomniferum First of all I love the bee gees version,but this is new to me but Im really diggin the hell out of this one,michael bolton is good also,I think loog as they stay with original style Im good.

  • @MrRondog56 "michael bolton is good also"

    For mentioning Michael Bolton in the comments section of a Nina Simone video you have a special place in Hell reserved for you when you depart this Earth. Bet me.

  • @bapyou LMAO

  • @bapyou hahahahahahahahahahahaha.. I actually "lol'ed" reading your comment.. thank you sir, for that.

  • @bapyou lmaooooo!!!! classic

  • @bapyou Too damn right .Michael Bolton is unbearable and to me represents the overly sugar coated bad taste of mainstream American radio. who play his boring Motown versions more often then the originals. He should be disqualified from being in the entertainment industry on his hair do alone!

  • @Papeversomniferum First of all I love the bee gees version,but this is new to me but Im really diggin the hell out of this one,michael bolton is good also,I think long as they stay with original style Im good.

  • This is GORGEOUS.

  • best version of this song on youtube is by ray lamontagne and damien rice ,check it out peps

  • Janis is the Bomb!

  • bee gees do a way better version

  • This version is on the soundtrack of the new Jim Carey movie "I Love You Phillip Morris".

  • essa é a musica nina é tudo de bom!!!!

    ]

  • You again.

  • innacurate lyrics, but great sound, so who cares.

  • Check out Eric burdons doing this song

  • That's very interesting. This is the finest version, but wouldn't it also have been good to hear O R do it?

  • the bee gees wrote it for otis, but he passed away before recording it. So they did a the first version.

  • Who did it first the bee gees or nina simone???

  • The Bee Gees wrote it for Otis Redding, but he died before he could record it, so they recorded it on their next lp.

  • Y love you Max, beautiful song

  • In my opinion, this is the best version of this song, because I love Nina Simone...

  • A perfect song,just beautiful.

  • great lyrics ...just the way i feel now...

  • since the first stanza is all about LIGHT, the lyric reads "i want my whole life to be LIT with you"

  • Love this! Love Nina Simone! Beautiful! Thankyou!

  • nooooo :)

  • Actually its spanish for girl... F-tard -gg

  • NOOOO! My comment disappeared now I can't even see what you're talking about!

  • nope, the spanish for girl is niña. Nina is the catalan for doll.
