I honestly had no clue that these few videos had attained this many views. I didn't know this many people were interested in these gems. I'm so happy you enjoyed the songs, I love them dearly
Nic Tanghe. What does "heavily compressed" mean, and how is the vocalization affected. I would love to learn the difference in quality of tone between vinyl and CD's. I crawl around in old record shops to collect vinyl jazz mostly, and Cleveland Philharmonic but don't know if they are inferior to cd's. Thanx for any info you have (But Nina always sounds exquisite to me and her piano is surreal....
CDs (16-bit,44kHz samples) and vinyl are mastered differently and have different capabilities. Both are mastered with a different form of equalisation and distortion ! Indeed, a high frequency "dither noise" is added to CD recordings, to average out quantisation error. Vinyl can't handle high levels of high frequency (due to stylus cutting and playback mechanics) and older recordings respect that. Modern music production packs in treble, to sound loud on CD and downloads. To save money (by not needing a different master recording), the vinyl version is just distorted with equalisers or remixing with less comp/limiter effects. So vinyl tracks can sound different (because they are different), even under digital compression. DVDA and SACD were trying to go beyond both media (the dither would also be more hypersonic, at 96KHz sampling) ... but "nobody cared" ... they were all going portable and miniature at the time. The most capable public digital formats now are (24-bit, 96kHz) PCM tracks on Blu-ray. Vinyl comes with noise and that can cancel out fidelity (ref information theory, noisy lines, C.Shannon et al). TH-cam and other digital downloads digitally compress (not to be confused with compressor/limiters ... used to pack higher dynamic ranges into narrower ones) the audio data by dropping the least important detail. In the case of this soundtrack, the information lost will be details like breathing sounds, the band fidgeting and high frequency noises from cymbals and the like. Digital compression has preserved most of the character of Nina's voice. Indeed, digital audio compression mostly removes stuff we can't hear, whilst trying to preserve vocals. After some years of hi-fi experimentation, I find that the most important kit is your power amp and speakers. Bigger is better for the speaker but mostly for the amp. Cheap speaker cones and lazy amplifiers just flop around and distort to such a degree that you needn't worry about compression or dynamic range! With a proper amp, you might be able to hear some extra ambient sounds from vinyl or 24/96 digital as well as crisper instruments. It is mostly the amp and speakers which will bring the performance live into your room. I have "mid-fi" speakers and separate amp on this computer and Nina sounds magic, even on TH-cam. The raw power of her voice is penetrating (and generally amazing) ... even compressed (but perhaps not if you are listening on little headphones or monitor speakers).
I wouldn’t agree..... blue’s is just the art of storytelling.... blues isn’t always sad some forms of country music is considered blues..... blues is being able to understand or sympathize with/for a situation.... hence the term someone is going through or giving someone the blues.... in some instances the blues could be uplifting it’s a lasting lingering impression ..... it’s one of the reasons Brian McKnight “never felt this way” is one of my ultimate faves..... he’s giving the blues!!!!! A passionate excitement ..... if you’ve ever felt it, it’s an amazing feeling you never want to subside 💕
For me,Nina Simone is the greatest female artist of all time.No one even comes close to her.A true musician who has discovered how to accompany her voice with her instrument.Amazing wow.
Abdelkader Ali: Both have rare style and emote in song, as opposed to Sarah Vaughn who se voice was operatic in scale: Billie and her ragged pathos: Nina who is intimate and seems to be talking directly to you...her stellar piano virtuosity makes her lyrics boldface... I Get along without you very well....Billie Lover Man, Gloomy Sunday...Fine and Mellow...blankets of wistful yearning
How do you feel about Lana Del Rey? I'm curious because I feel some/ a lot of her music is very similar. She is vocally and lyrically amazing just like Nina... Lana even covered "Don't let me be misunderstood" by Nina Simone on her second to last album honeymoon :) if you don't listen to her, maybe give it a shot!
C'est la plus belle femme que j'ai jamais entendu c'est une femme extraordinaire extraordinaire il y a pas moi dire la voix extraordinaire voilà bisous
You don't know what love is Until you've learned the meaning of the blues Until you've loved a love you've had to lose You don't know what love is You don't know how lips hurt Until you've kissed and had to pay the cost Until you've flipped your heart and you have lost You don't know what love is Do you know how lost heart feels At the thought of reminiscing And how lips that taste of tears Lose their taste for kissing You don't know how hearts burn For love that cannot live yet never dies Until you've faced each dawn with sleepless eyes You don't know what love is You don't know how hearts burn For love that cannot live yet never dies Until you've faced each dawn with sleepless eyes You don't know what love is What love is
We all are stars not by what humans ,say but our heavenly father says he loves us all, we not all meant to be rich or known by the world, just keep trying, you got this.
The greatest musical genius of SOUL music and beyond. Her voice and piano nurtures the song and leads you into an almost mystical place and then brings that world to a climatic end.
Extacy... how I miss good music and how tragic that this generation will never know good, tantalizing, mind bending, exotic music...Thank you for posting!
A voice that never, never will be replaced. This was the final voice for a society of equality and love. Thank you NINA. Rest in peace. Thank your for your gift. I wish I had met you. Yet I have your voice and phrasing to show me how a brilliant musican says it all ....and penetrates a human heart.
The first time hearing her was when I watched a, not great, Bridget Fonda movie, Point of No Return, which played some of her songs… BF’s character was named Nina because she would only listen to Nina Simone records-the character kind of had an obsession with Nina S’s music and she explained it which made sense. The music changed me. Nina Simone’s voice is so raw, passionate, penetrating… I never heard anything like it. I was hooked. At the time, I was a a kid; but even now, middle-aged, I still haven’t heard anything like it.
I discovered her in 2015 but since that moment I have been captivated by her magnificent voice and inspiring activism. A long life regret is that I will never get to see her live.
Ian Westdrop same! She's the best company for a bubble bath. She makes me want to paint. She makes me cry and I'm not a cryer ever. She breaks through somehow. I just adore her.
This song describes how I have been feeling for the past 3 months. I have been in it thick. Slowly my blues are diminishing but this song describes it perfectly “…faced each dawn with sleepless eyes…” Absolutely.
@@erikadavis4696 So let's give some credit to the guy who DID write it - Don Raye. An amazing man. Wrote everything from Haikus to The House of Blue Lights.
Thanks for sharing this hauntingly beautiful version of this song! Nobody does it justice like Nina Simone!! She caresses each lyric in a playful, loving way. ENCHANTING/MESMERIZING!!!💕💯
Eu aqui no Brasil nunca vou te esquecer viu Senhora Nina Simone. Eu cresci ouvindo suas músicas com sua linda voz assim como vc é uma linda Mulher incrível não te ouvir e não chorar de emoção. Gratidão pela sua existência aqui. 📺🎧🎤📻🎧🇧🇷🎺🎸🎻
Nina Simone is one of our many blues/jazz singers of all time. Listen to this entire playlist, you'll never feel alone. She's my favorite too.ilyb💎💎💎💎👑
she also sang- I QUOTE, you need to know when to leave the table when LOVE IS No longer being served..... she can deliver a lyric better than most singers.
Beautiful art, great strength, a superb character, a beauty of such depth, Nina is quite glorious here. The mesmerising beat and subtle message of painful attraction...it makes one want to know the impossibility of relief, of love.
You don't know what love is Til you've learned the meaning of the blues Until you've loved a love you've had to lose You don't know what love is You don't know how lips hurt Until you've kissed and had to pay the cost Until you've flipped your heart and you have lost You don't know what love is Do you know how a lost heart fears /The thought of reminiscing And how lips that taste of tears Lose their taste for kissing You don't know how hearts burn For love that cannot live yet never dies Until you've faced each dawn with sleepless eyes You don't know what love is You don't know how hearts burn For love that cannot live yet never dies Until you've faced each dawn with sleepless eyes You don't know what love is
Your life changes after the first time you hear Nina sing. It's true.
😮😢I NOW KNOW 😊
Нет.
My dad played her during my childhood, up until he passed. He gave me Nina as one of his many gifts x
And it’s true!
Yes, that voice! 😮
There is a type of pain that only listening to Nina can heal.
Or Billie Holliday??? Smh.
oh yes indeed
Oh, yes sweety.. that is what i felt all the time but you easily said it.. nice that we both could feel it :) greets from munich
Toothache I bet ^^
Oh God, I am feeling that tonight. Just listening to Nina.
No need to thank me, I absolutely had to share this. I'm just glad I could share this amazing gem with others who appreciate it.
Well, that being said, thanks a lot :)

Baby til you've faced each dawn with sleepless eyes. and then it's cut short
She brings you in another dimension, when she sings.....
lela kapllani another world ..
Yeah like depression, a beautiful one though :)
she deserves to be known till the end of time.
👏👏👏👏🥰🇧🇷🌍♥️
You don't know what soul is, till you've heard Nina sing.
Who is here in 2020. Nina's songs are healing.
This has to be from vinyl... raw power of her voice is penetrating... love her.
youre listening to a heavily compressed youtube video.
Your opinion on audio quality is herby rendered invalid.

You should check out Chet Baker version; I do not believe I am about to say that, but: he beat Nina SImone!
listening to this while its raining, while listening to my man sleep....priceless
Nev Nevitt this is beautiful
So he doesn't know what love is?
DONT KILL HIM OR U WILL GO TO JAIL
@@vsarple lmao
Wow ur lucky
Blues is when a person loses a love.
I agree with you........

ufff yasss
So real
yeah💗cool🌻🌻🌻🌻♥️
This legendary singer's voice always expresses deep feelings.
Her music leaves me feeling so raw.
Sometimes...I wish I don't know what love is. Every line in this song breaks my heart but I can't stop listening.
If I had to listen to one singer for the rest of my life it would be my Nina without question. As a writer her songs inspire me everytime I hear her.
👏💞
Yes, absolutely 💯
For me,Nina Simone is the greatest female artist of all time.No one even comes close to her.A true musician who has discovered how to accompany her voice with her instrument.Amazing wow.
Shango mango billie holiday better ;)
Billie Holiday and Nina Simone are the best . You can listen to " don't explain" of Billie and covered by Nina

Diamanda Galas & Jarboe come close though

Such calmness ... I need Nina in my life🙌🏽😩
C'est la plus belle femme que j'ai jamais entendu c'est une femme extraordinaire extraordinaire il y a pas moi dire la voix extraordinaire voilà bisous
Wherever I go, I always come back to listen to incredible Nina Simone..
You don't know what love is
Until you've learned the meaning of the blues
Until you've loved a love you've had to lose
You don't know what love is
You don't know how lips hurt
Until you've kissed and had to pay the cost
Until you've flipped your heart and you have lost
You don't know what love is
Do you know how lost heart feels
At the thought of reminiscing
And how lips that taste of tears
Lose their taste for kissing
You don't know how hearts burn
For love that cannot live yet never dies
Until you've faced each dawn with sleepless eyes
You don't know what love is
You don't know how hearts burn
For love that cannot live yet never dies
Until you've faced each dawn with sleepless eyes
You don't know what love is
What love is
thank u
One is a million of golden
Argi Skelton l
nina i love toi so much and i love this song with passion
Argi Skelton :-)
THIS is the real music!!
To have the capacity to love so deeply is truly a gift. To have loved someone so much that losing them is soul wrenching... beautiful
This song brings emotions above this world.
She is the definition of soul. Soul last forever
That voice...Somebody needs to do one of those 2 hour repeating mixes of this song so I don't have to keep restarting it.
this makes me wanna stay encouraged to keep singing and make more youtube videos
please do
I will be listening :)
We all are stars not by what humans ,say but our heavenly father says he loves us all, we not all meant to be rich or known by the world, just keep trying, you got this.
Follow your dreams and never quit my darling.
The blues brings me here.
all of her music has such a healing power. she was blessed with a gift & truly shared it with the world.
The greatest musical genius of SOUL music and beyond. Her voice and piano nurtures the song and leads you into an almost mystical place and then brings that world to a climatic end.
Regal, Royalty! Timeless and classy. I Love Nina Simone!
That voice. I could hear that everyday.
Such sadness blooms so much greatness
My Sister and I both have our faves, she with Nina, myself Lady Day , after debate and years of fun, we all won, timeless, perfect
Extacy... how I miss good music and how tragic that this generation will never know good, tantalizing, mind bending, exotic music...Thank you for posting!

heartbreakingly beautiful, written and sung by a person who truly knows how to love.
i was born yesterday but this brings memories of one day before that. hello from today
She is so amazing.I love it❤Soori from Iran
oh my god. How have I not heard this voice?
Don't worry... There is always time to discover Nina. Enjoy. :)
welcome...she's a goddess :}
Better late than never. Welcome to Nina's world!
You've been bombarded by modern -noise- music.
I'm soooo glad you have now! Quintessential soul!

Remembering someone who no longer remembers me..
You don't know how lips hurt..
How a lost heart feels..🥲
She is one of my favs, deep soulful sounds , words that speak truth
👏🥳💖
Go straight to my heart
I discovered her in 2015 but since that moment I have been captivated by her magnificent voice and inspiring activism. A long life regret is that I will never get to see her live.
Good music never dies 2023
The one and only Nina!
She's my guide most of my live , and stil is...
same here! When my soul is lost I turn to her
She made me sad... she lift me up... she made me spiritual... and she gives me hope again...
Ian Westdrop same! She's the best company for a bubble bath. She makes me want to paint. She makes me cry and I'm not a cryer ever. She breaks through somehow. I just adore her.
The first album I had was... The high preast of soul and it hit me like magic...!!!
She speaks her truth to power. There is no hiding with her. I strive to have the courage of my convictions as she did. Love her.
Wow so glad I stumbled upon miss Nina Simone😭❤💯. Speaking to my soul
"...for love that cannot live but never dies..." too true.
No words can describe the beauty of this arrangement, excellent!!!!
She is such an amazing singer and touches my heart like she knows what she is singing about, she has been there...
Queen Nina Always
was there ever a more poignant, beautiful performance of this song? Love you Nina...RIP
How hearts burn for a love that can never live but never dies! What a heart! So true, so real. I love her!
This is what the love is, Nina Simone singing to us.
Thank you beautiful Nina, your spirit lives on.....

Music can heal the deepest wounds... Nina knew what paint was...
I think this era of music will b coming back soon. We r gonna move back to purity n music again.
This song describes how I have been feeling for the past 3 months. I have been in it thick. Slowly my blues are diminishing but this song describes it perfectly “…faced each dawn with sleepless eyes…” Absolutely.
You don't know how hearts yearn
For love that cannot live yet never dies
Until you've faced each dawn with sleepless eyes
You don't know what love is
Why we fall in love with the person does not respond to your love?
@@juliacochrane2535 helo miss Julia, I need to talk with u...pls if u can.

You don't know what love is
Til you've learned the meaning of the blues
Until you've loved a love you've had to lose
You don't know what love is
You don't know how lips hurt
Until you've kissed and had to pay the cost
Until you've flipped your heart and you have lost
You don't know what love is
Do you know how a lost heart fears
/The thought of reminiscing
And how lips that taste of tears
Lose their taste for kissing
You don't know how hearts burn
For love that cannot live yet never dies
Until you've faced each dawn with sleepless eyes
You don't know what love is
You don't know how hearts burn
For love that cannot live yet never dies
Until you've faced each dawn with sleepless eyes
You don't know what love is
Karla Izidro h
man... the age of the blues, real passion and soul behind the music. I hope this type of love comes again.
If this isn't the blues, then nothing is!
Divine - really I`m speechless! Thank you for all those TOP her songs versions!
Love this version. Most covers i've heard are just a little faster in tempo, and in my opinion this slow tempo just suits the song better.
You don't know what love is, so beautiful, so Nina...
THE QUEEN OF BLUES JAZZ AND SOUL !!!!
Gosh this woman is beautiful, I’m not sure how I stumbled across her music, but Im inspired 💕
