  • Whoever disliked this doesnt know what change is

  • No one like her...heartbreaking, beautiful...<3

  • thumbs up if novacane by lil' wayne reminded you of this song

  • Omg....i can't move. Is there a word stronger than love? That's what I'm feeling for this interpretation of this song.

  • Damn.

  • "....the young become the old

    and mysteries do unfold..."

    :(

  • Thanks from Barcelona......It's a fantastic song and letter......Thanks again for sharing it. Salvador

  • who is the guy sing this song? i love this version.

  • @Juillet187Nina Simone

  • @Juillet187 --- the person that is singing the song is not a guy its a girl

  • ups

    

  • great song

  • This is my favorite version of this.I's great! The Four Tops come in a close second. What it says matches the video--thanks.

  • 1 DISLIKE.... pity the fool.

    Nina is in fine form here, marvellous.

  • The statue of Nina is beautiful except her hair must be swept higher, like an African Queen wearing a crown, her cheeks should be a tiny bit higher and her the arch of her nose a little slender sort of sweeping up like the crown of hair. She is done so wonderfully here but it is the tiny inflections only she could do in her music that the artist must do with his scapel. She was larger than life, now go on and imagine beyond a photo, feel her like she sang the notes. She invoked beauty always.

  • Lovely.

  • I moved to Saluda a few years ago and have been a jazz lover forever. Hoping some of this Nina magic will rub off on me I suppose. Never knew where she was born and it is great to see Tryon the way it used to be and the way it is. Thanks for posting!

  • good..........................­............

  • As good as Nina is-- and here she is as usual oustanding, the outstanding interpretation  of this song is by Sarah Vaughan

  • Sorry, typo in my previous comment - I always get her name wrong!

  • Although a fan of Nina, I first heard this song by Karyn Allison, also on youtube. Girl Power. :)

  • sweet NINA SIMONE its just perfect cuz shes so full of life , and her soul is on the line wonderfull... absolute artist love thanks

  • Einfach einmalig schön.

  • Very different interpretation from the original version. In fact, from any version. The original version sounds hopeful. Most other versions sound hopeful and/or retrospective. Nina's version sounds painful. That's Nina. A genius at interpretation.

  • LOVE IT!

  • WOW !!  Superb!!

  • Beautiful

  • amazing .... :) ..

  • Thank you for the excellent work. I love NIna.

  • Glad you like the video. It was my first and is yet my favorite. Hope you can see the Nina Simone sculpture by Zenos Frudakis in Tryon, NC someday, which is what has compelled most all of these videos.

  • great great work on the video !

  • this one is gorgeous, along with 'you'd be so nice to come home to'

    ahhhhh ninaaaa

  • so beautiful,

  • I love Nina with reverance. I say her name as a prayer. The beauty and the truth of her spirit causes me to listen with my head down in respect and awe. As if to see so much at one would overwhelm me.

  • I had only heard George Benson's version of this song ( which is excellent as well ) up until tonight. I am a bit partial to George's version but don't really care for the scatting at the end.

  • Excellent!! (: O)

  • Moving! . . .so very moving. . .

  • Great!

  • Nice, merci beaucoup.

  • BEAUTIFUL....GREAT WORDS.

  • What a wonderful memorial to Ms. Nina.

    Thanks for posting this.

  • Very nice job, thanks for this!

  • Crys, this is FANTASTIC!

  • I'm glad, Zen, that you, of all people, like it.
