  • @Deioproductions

    How I found this song, both incredible.

  • Real talent, right there! I love Nina Simone! <3

  • This song really resonates today - how far have we come, or how far are we backsliding !

  • It hits me hard in my heart and soul every time I listen to this song.

    Nina Lives!!!!!!!!!

  • I just watched another video of this song with significantly different words-for instance it doesn't have the lines "Alabama makes me so upset/Tennessee makes me lose my rest". I transcribed that version because I couldn't find it online. I then added this song and my transcription of it [which differs somewhat from the lyrics found on sites] & the othe video, & transcription to my blog. Google Two Versions of Nina Simone's Mississippi Song "pancocojams".
