  • this is otherworldly.

  • The best version. Not only does she sing it, but she's playing the piano, too. You can hear her classical training. First time I heard this recording, years ago, I sat and played it again and again and again. I couldn't believe what Miss Simone had done.

  • Greatest and most powerful love song ever.

  • @jensmusicfaves You might be surprised you know, there's a lot of kids out there who might restore your faith. I run free arts workshops with kids aged 10-16 and on speaking to them about their music tastes I was pleasantly surprised. There was even a Thelonious Monk fan among them - don't make a snap judgement on the young uns - they're not all uncultured, over-produced-pop-aholics. :)

  • This is the most haunting/affecting of Nina Simone's songs, for me at least. (I actually discovered the original Johnny Mathis version through this one.. I like it, too, but there is no other song like Nina's WitW.)

    Maybe a few kids listening to "Feeling Good" (another great song, don't get me wrong) will discover and have their lives changed by this incomparable track. Nah. Until Lady Gaga covers it, won't happen. :| ;)

  • No one can top this version of this song it truly amazing and deep!

  • I cannot finish this song without tearing up...it is so emotional and heartfelt.

  • Love me love me love me

    Say you do

    Let me fly away

    with you

    For my love is like

    the wind

    And wild is the wind

  • No one expressed the pain of love more poignantly than Nina.....she had tears in her voice.

  • All around, the greatest musical artist of all time...and this is one of her greatest recordings.

  • bonita versión... pero me quedo con Bowie por los tan buenos recuerdos que me traen!!

  • In love with her voice... it enters your soul and moves through it so effortlessly and silky ......
