  • The very best! Nina is the most passionate vocal artist of the 20th century!

  • I didn't get it.She said that she didn't believe in the song, but yet she sang with sincerity.

  • @iusernaime Oh, now that I've heard the ending, I think I I get it.I missed it for some reason, maybe I've heard a edited version. So she sang the song just to prove that, contrary to what the song says, we can't feel that we forgot our feelings, because we can't forget our feelings.Is that right?

  • Sublime.

  • @heyshameera Very well put it.The crowd didn´t have a clue what she was on about and we could even hear some laughters.Nina at this point was very vulnerable and just coming to term with her mental illness.Time everything was magnified tenfold:her joy and sadness.

  • Nina, I love you and I always will...you're an angel...

  • the most heartbreaking thing about this performance is in her futile attempts to get the crowd to sing along. although we do empathize and sympathize, we say nothing, and she is left isolated and alone, having "feelings" so powerful, tragic and beautiful that it consumes and destroys her wholly, while we sit powerless, not being able to do anything but show some semblance of empathy and sympathy through whatever applause we can give.

  • God damn ! I do not believe the conditions that produced a situation that demanded a song like that !!!

    :D

    Bravo Nina xxx

  • O brasileiro que fez esta musica jamais a pensou tão lindamento interpretada!! Valeu Nina!!!

  • It's very magician. I very want to be there... Feeling [...]

  • Soul touching!

  • Does someone know on which album i can find this number?

  • There will never be another Nina Simone. 

  • Always makes me cry. Never has there ever been another woman with such soul in her voice, passion in her playing and the ability to convey such strong emotion in every song. I absolutely LOVE this woman.

  • GO MUPPETS

  • this is one of those times when you wonder what kind of human being could press the 'dislike' button..

  • Le feelings c'était vraiment Nina. Tu seras toujours là.

  • I had the pleasure of working with "La Simone" for a year and this performance sums her up...talented, strong, gifted and straightforward. RIP Nina.

  • @tucksy lucky you i would have loved to meet the great nina, i'm addicted to nina simone

  • The face. The emotion. 60fender19 said it. She's _ALL_ out there! Everything she's got is given. Near the top of my list of unreachable wishes: to have seen Nina Simone live.

  • @ytsox I have a feeling I know what you mean. I would have loved to have seen such a great person live. But thankfully we have places like youtube where we can still view such great performances.

  • @ytsox yeah for sure. i with you on that. and she made me cry :(

  • love you nina so so much. extraodinary !!!!!!!!! thats all i can say with teary eyes!!!!!! those danm fealings wow!!!!!!!!

  • PURE LOVE in my ear

  • What a QUEEN!!..

  • Somewhere I read...I think on wikipedia (LOL) that this song was named one of the worst songs of the 70's. By whom? A complete idiot! I can't imagine this song without Nina singing it. She sings and plays it so well.

  • i just stumbled on this, it's amazing how she explains the song and how she feel's when shes trying to sing the song herself, not alot of artists do that and i wish they can. Now i'm gonna have to buy alot of Nina Simone records!!!

  • Comment removed

  • did she do a studio version? must have!!!!

  • @DeafMuteZombie Let me know if you find one, been looking for a while...

  • Magic...

  • Amo, amo e amo Nina Simone!!!! Que lindo momento!!!!

  • ...i think this song has captured every emotion i have ever felt when i was depressed or sad...just to know when everything is striped away-money-status-love-etc....­......ur feelings is whats left....

  • 4:30 - is by far the best part...you can feel EVERYTHING she's going thru.

    FRIGHTENS ME.

    I LOVE NINA!

  • So intimate. So raw. From the piano keys, to her voice, to the words. I get it... Feelings!

  • Thanks for helping me get my life back together Nina. I can now feel again.

  • 59 dislikes???!!! They must be heartless.

  • I'd f*ck that ass "all night long" baby! Face to the sheets at least!.. hoho

  • She means every word and every note.

  • I love how quite the crowd is as she plays and sings. You dont see that much in live shows

  • Impresionante!!!! Exquisito!!

  • PERFECT

  • Heart-achingly Beautiful.

    @ 4:25 I Wish I Never.....

  • If Mary J Blige can recapture this intense heartbreaking performance in the new movie that is supposed to come out next year. I will say hand her the Oscar now. Otherwise they need to find someone else that can capture Nina's Brilliance!

  • She's my favourite psychologist

  • the great minds have gone to the advertising industry.

  • Ոնց եմ սիրում:)

  • @NonokoYi

    A small correction to the final line of Nina's remark: "... that produced a situation that demanded a song like that"

  • @brernancy thanks ^^

  • @NonokoYi "that *Demanded* a song like that"?

  • Yes,She is the Lady of feelings,a great and honest artist.I love her work, it´s timeless

  • absolutely amazing.

  • HUGE singer and soul

  • She really makes me feel it.. that's Soul

  • N.S.dont hide her feelings,truly introspective..

  • AMAZING

  • How wonderful is this????

  • Captivating..she sang with such honesty and told her story. Thank you Nina

  • שאפו עצום !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • What an angry woman!

  • We miss you Nina and God knows we need you now more than ever.  Long Live Nina Simone!!

  • My god, how she tries to get the audience to connect. So many artistes have develeoped a performance mode that is like playing in a "Theme Park." Nina really tries to break this with her feelings for here and now, no sell out, just a real human trying to communicate to robots.

  • @60fender19 maybe she just didn't get that the audience might speak a different language than english. English isn't easily understood everywhere in the world. Music is universal though. Many artists try to do that in Montreal, and get a mixed reaction as well. I'm just bored.

  • she is so true, the kind of musician that would prefer playing nothing than something that contradict herself.

  • What's the audience's problem?

  • Wonderful! She put tears in my eyes! 

  • @FRICSO me too!!

  • "Goddamn, ...I mean, all the shame you have to write a song like that... I'm not mad or making fun of the man, I do not believe the conditions that produced a situation that demanded a song like that... ... well c'mon, clap! Damn it, what's wrong with you?"

  • she is wonder... from africa..

  • God she had the ability to take a song rewrite it and make it sound tens times better than the original!Im not a great fan of Bob Dylan,but Nna doing Dylan is incredible.I can never get enough of her voice.Thanks.

  • she is hammered.

  • she was also an amazing Pianist

  • HARİKASIN !

  • amazing performance

  • she is high as a kite or drunk or something

  • @Beerahollic She wasn't high or drunk. She was bipolar.

  • @Beerahollic She wasn't drunk or high. She was bipolar.

  • @Beerahollic wow... yeah you would think that.....

  • "feelings wo-o-o feelings, wo-o-o feelings, feel you again in my arms" damn! after watchin' the video Im gonna have this tune in my mind all day long!! its just irresistible!! I LOVE the way Nina plays the piano and her style of singing so deep but relaxing. Its really a pleasure to play a cd of Nina at anytime.

  • The best moment i ve never seen on You tube i think , i am really ... she is the best, she is all the women, but all the men too ... i can see my fear, my love, my regrets, my hope... she is the best singer

  • Esta interpretação de Nina Simone nos transporta para um espaço paralelo em nossas almas. É simplesmente maravilhosa, e de uma sensibilidade nunca vista em outros artistas. Nina, vc é unica. Obrigada por existir.

  • I wonder who broke her heart....

  • @MarijaBlueBG

    I think she divorced her husband / manager a year or two before this and she also had a warrant for her arrest for unpaid taxes in '74 or so. She didn't pay taxes for a few years as a protest to the U.S. involvement in the Vietnam war apparently.

  • Indeed and brings back memories from the 60's.Nina’s feelings and personal reflections about a song while performing is amazing, hence, it brings out her very talented piano playing. Her comments “The conditions that produced a situation that demanded a song like that (Feelings) ….” Years ago buying just two tickets to see Nina Simone at the Academy of Music cost me an icy friendship of sister in-law and she nicked named me Nina Simone.

  • Thank you for bringing a little warmth into out hearts, you will be missed!

  • I will forever be envious of every person there who got to witness this masterpiece live.

  • no hermosa por belleza si no da corazon por buen musico y su estilo de cantar

  • Wonderful, incredible, amazing...where does one find words for something like this? So many thanks for posting.

  • Qué hermosa mujer. Qué generosa.

  • Just FEELING NINA!

  • I wish they didn't crop off the end of this video where there was undoubtedly a roaring standing ovation.

  • OMG. OMFG. I have hated this song since it first played. Can't hate it anymore. Nina was beyond special.

  • Good job Nina.. Remind me why I'm still living..

  • Nina Simone adds so much honest expression to the song. You cant help but feel it... In here lol

  • Pour moi, c'est LA plus grande. Un peu folle, c'est sûr, mais quel talent ! J'ai vu son dernier concert et j' ai pleuré, quelle présence. Nina , THE BEST !

  • maybe shes singing to baby Jesus !

  • Grandissima Nina!

  • GGGGG'NIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT!!!

  • What 52 decrepit baby raping terrorists disliked this? Makes me scared to go outside. I never liked this song till now. Never felt it till I saw this woman sing it just now. THX Uploader!!!

  • great!

  • Holy Cow..

    She never ceases to amaze me.

  • C'mon clap, damn it!

  • I cry everytime I listen to this

  • her voice brings tears to my eyes..

  • sin palabras...

    

  • incredible :)

  • Realeza!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • 'so embarrassingly soft...'

  • no matters what the drugs make me do... she´s great!

  • This strikes me deep in a place that destroys my ability to not be true to myself.

  • My God! All current and aspiring singers take note. This is how you emotionally connect to a song. You can see her physically take on the meaning of this song. I love this woman!!

  • i don't think arguing about the audience would have been nina's wish anyway..... just enjoy the music 

  • if you listen to this with headphones you can hear the audience singing at 6:53 and when she says "Feed me feed me," I didn't think they listened to her but it seemed they did.

  • Comment removed

  • I can not understand why the audience was not singing along with Nina that's what she asked for !!! Ggggrrrr makes me mad I wish I could have been there !!! .... I can feel her pain through her eyes and hear the falling tears through the tremors that her beautiful and unique voice produces....I will always love u always and admire you forever Nina :(

  • she makes the piano weep

  • Comment removed

  • ah they cut out the bit where she says she is a robot.... and how the imagination can take u to that level.... sony... and universal studios, canada , and emi...... from those of us that have been there... shame on u

  • thanks to

  • If it's not THE genius of music, what is it ?

  • thanks

    

  • too bad I can't see any 'feelings' in her eyes

  • @rrezee u kiddin?

  • @boliques0 no, she looks a bit numb in her face!

    

  • Nina Simone is awesome...I just love her music. It's pulsates the soul. What a genius...she lives on in her music. It's timeless...

  • @mutakati she seems angry ANGRY

  • Respond to this video... she is ANGRY

  • 52 people are afraid of their own feelings. Just like that audience of robots.

  • @saladmonsterfrommars you gotta admit,,,,it does take alot of courage to feel....

  • @saladmonsterfrommars why do you call the audience robots? because they don´t scream around during the performance and clap and whistle? I am pretty sure, they were quietly enjoying this artist and gave way to their admiration afterwards. as I would prefer with the song. doesn´t mean it doesn´t touch their hearts.

  • @jayweh Uh, no. Because the entire time she was playing at this festival they were laughing and clapping at inappropriate times. It's more that they're so quick to show their admiration that they never consider what Nina is actually saying. They used their applause as a way of playing dumb, pretending she was just performing an act like a dancing clown so they wouldn't have to take her words seriously.

  • @saladmonsterfrommars you gotta cut these people some slack there. I am absolutely willing to believe that any "inappropriate" clapping or laughter is due to language difficulties. they´re probably swiss, german, austrian or french. and when it´s not your native language, things might get lost. so what do you when you don´t really understand 100 percent? you stick to the music, bc music is universal. I am pretty sure, nina knew that foreign people react differently than native english speakers.

  • @jayweh I agree.

  • She`s so intense! What an artist! I love her! Thank you for giving it, Nina!!!!!!!

  • simply blissful beauty

  • i think i am gonna hurt myself!

  • Goddess

  • I am watching it over and over again and all the words seem so actual at this given moment also..."where we have forgotten our feeling of love"...she is genious, all the pain,sorrow, love,loss.... is going through this music...it is full of these emotions, does somebody seel feel this way....most of us have become so numb...with everyday life we are forgeting to feel, this song brings me back to life...

  • is this woman seriously a singer :D

  • @linzki

    oh yes...and really talented.she has been a muse to many musicians...

  • *clap* :)
