Yes, learning the only ‘genuine’ love there is is Gods. It’s not that I love God but that he FIRST loved me…it’s His love! Praying we can all grow in the knowledge of how much He loves us! For in His love IS life and peace! 👆🏼🙏♥️
Do yourself a favor, find someplace quiet, listen to this again, then find Janis Joplins version, then the Bee Gees version. DONT COMPARE, just sit back and appreciate the power of the music!!

@@bobtraub9945 she has different versions of this song, there’s a faster one that is absolutely fantastic, maybe closer to the more traditional ones but way better. Can’t remember in which ones of her released cds is but worth listening to.
I just cried watching this on Monday February 06th , 2023... I just think what are we doing in this short life we live ? , let's love and help each other !! ....Im just a 2x divorced , semi alcoholic , middle class white man, who needs people / God / love........Nina's music and "fight" has helped me get out of the gutters .....Love Ya Miss Simone , your my Queen ....💓
Hey, I’m crying right now, too, and this is the first time I’ve heard the Nina Simone version! She was amazing. I didn’t know this existed. I am divorced too. You are not alone. Maybe you will notice that when the alcohol wears off, the pain is still there. I sure notice! For me, it has been best to face that pain, feel that pain, and ask God to hold my hand while I try to walk through it and make it to the light. Also, alcohol interacted with a med-not sure which one it was-it gave me insomnia. I quit. However, I never underestimate the value of a good cry. This song is so gorgeous, I had one of those good cries!
No such thing as a “semi-alcoholic”. I hope for your sake you’ve hit the point where you can commit to change and get help. Please Don’t “write your own program” - that hadn’t worked by the time you wrote this. Hopefully, you’ve found that help. Baby steps, friend. ❤
She's incredible. I just discovered her yesterday. Her voice is sublime. Her presence. Her dignity. Her pain. She is the epitome of being in the moment. You watch her perform every emotion in real time, minute to minute. Second to second. Incredible charismatic force.
NINA SIMONE I DISCOVERED YOU IN LONDON. I WAS 21 (1963). IN THAT CLUB, SOMEBODY GAVE ME YOUR ALBUM WITH "I put a spell on You" and you followed my life since then. Thank you for all the precious concerts you gave us. THEY BROUGHT TEARS TO MY EYES WHEN YOU TALKED ABOUT BEING FREE LIKE A BIRD ETC... YOU ARE FOR EVER LOVED. REST IN PEACE.

That is. Period. Soul wrenching. I love the moments that she is looking away from the mic as much as when she does sing. Her face, head and whole body sing between the lines.
I was only 9 yrs old, when I first heard her song…and I love our genuine music and their beautiful voices complemented each cord, Todays noise should be banned.
Watching, listening, seeing, knowing her for the first time ever in 2024, Whaooo she was indeed something else, I know this song but never like this , great rendition
this version is the best there is. The Bee Gees may have done it first but not the best. I'm a 47 year old metalhead but I do so love to listen to blues and some smooth jazz. Nina Simone is one of those voices that will resonate throughout the future. utterly timeless.
7 years ago, this was THE ONLY thing that would get my colicky baby girl to sleep at night. 7 years later she has some of the best musical taste I’ve seen in a kid her age ❤
The Bee Gees had a No.1`hit in the US with their original version. Barry Gibb wrote this song for Otis Redding back in 1967 but he died before he could record it.
This song was written and sung by The Bee Gees; Nina covered it, along with many other musicians. I think her version is the best, though the the original Bee Gees version is very good.
Nina expressionwas I felt it could have been something she was experiencing at the time. So that's why she was singing with so much emotion possibility, many other things could have occurred. Every time I listen to it , it brings me to tears What a great artist She was
Sadly the great Nina Simone was in an abusive relationship and when you listen to this song you can understand the emotions her voice evokes that are rooted in her real life.
I love the way Nina abruptly stands up after the song and stares down the audience like she’s saying “how about THAT, mother f-ers!!!” An outstanding performance by a great artist.
If there was a "QUEEN " she is sitting right there on that piano 🎹 stool, Nina was the emeralds that lit the entire world . May she always burn with her colors of that voice . Respect, she demanded it and for that we still are listening. 🎼🎹🎵🎶❤️💋
Anna must be a productive relative of Nina the way she described her colorful description it's, it's understood that she felt all what Nina was feeling, during her vocal and Musical performances . Continue to describe your experience with musicians and the world will listen!!!
Love is blind. This song is deep. You don’t know until you’ve loved someone the way she has. This song is for people who are quick to judge but don’t know first hand.
There will never be another like Nina. She pours that raw emotion from deep, deep down inside her soul. You can feel the pain, loneliness, sorrow and the hope. Nina fills you with her song. It hits the contours of your inner being and remains with you forever. That's Nina Simone, the best of the best.
HOLY CRAP! I'm just now learning about this woman and I can't stop listening to her music. She is amazing, beautiful voice and that soul. I'm just now learning about her and Amy winehouse, WOW.
Welcome aboard! There's a treasure trove of greats who are no longer with us in the flesh. Thx to TH-cam we can 'call them up' pretty much anytime we want!
Has anyone been more openly human than Nina Simone, ever? Giving everything she had, with every breath and every look and every motion. I've never been more in awe, ever. I don't think I could've lived through a live performance.
Nina Simone still able to make me reflect and cry. Always will be a light in my life until I also pass into the eternal night. She has the most pellucid voice reflecting our collective human soul. Nina, and people like her who touch our hearts will always be our own and the world’s salvation.

Ye Gods!!! That was the greatest version of that song I've ever heard! Her voice is a gift beyond words, and her piano skills are like a beautiful assault on the senses. What a wondrous artist she was. 💜
Do yourself a favor and look up HERE COMES THE SUN. Her vocals and piano solo take that song to another level. I've enjoyed that piece for 30 years now and never tire of it. Her performances in the SUMMER OF SOUL documentary was otherworldly!! Strange Fruit is ... the lyrics alone are enough to elicit tears-- Nina owns that song; you cannot deny the hurt, anger, pain ... the incomprehensible act of lynching another human being... So many have done justice in singing that piece; I would suggest you listen to any of her many recorded versions. If you want a good started album, you could start with THE BEST OF... from a reputable record co (one she recorded for would be the best bet). Then, move on to her live music. She was electric (most times) live. What a force. I hope her discography brings you as much joy (musically) and elicits as many deep, thoughtful, and important emotions-- (many with great joy!), as her discography brings to and elicits within me. I'm happy you have discovered the genius of Nina Simone.
Hi Bhakti Sure I will and let you know and I am sure I am in for a treat of a heavenly voice of a goddess talking to you from above! Thank you so much. 😃 Regards Milinda
Finding out how badly she was abused by husbands makes me see her pain even more individually and deeply. We didn't deserve her and she didn't deserve what she got. May The Good Lord repay her musical lovingkindness eternally.
@@shaunaevans755 When reading her autobiography, even thought it is written from her point of view, you guess that it was difficult for her daughter to go through all these changes. What make you excuse here is when you realize most man in her life gave her everything at the begining but took everything by the end. She was going on board a rollercoaster of emotions, she was not driving her life. She just wanted to focus on playing the piano, she became a star before she even realized, and she trusted other people too much.
My name is john somaru Born of 1964 in london england A descendent of the most devestating love via guyana, south america So my story is This piece of music takes me to a depth of struggle and love And it , wothout words, makes me cry.

Nina was a rare woman indeed who expressed her inner spirit about loving somebody! The depth of her emotion was earth shattering and pure. Let this song sizzle in your spirit in hope someday and somebody would love you as sincerely and deeply!!! Her music still touch our soul. We miss you sis*star!! ❤333
ça fait seulement 3 fois que je là regarde cette vidéo ... et je viens de comprendre qu'il me faudra beaucoup de visionnages pour comprendre ... au moins , voir ce qu'il s'est passé
Que bonito es el arte que Dios nos presta. Ésas mujeres que están bailando son una hermosura. Soy blanco pero mi abuela era negrita y me siento muy bien compartiendo con personas agradables. Son muchas mis amistades que AMO y entienden lo que llevo en la sangre. Los idiotas que no saben pues que sufran. El color se lleva por dentro.❤
❤ I’ve heard and seen MANY videos of others cover this song, but NOBODY does it justice like NINA SIMONE imo! The amount of soulful emotion and feeling of her voice that she brings to my heart and soul is like no other has been able to do! 👍
@@godfreymokobia9101 If I wrote what you wanted to do, it’s ok with me if you still want to add your own (lol) 😉! But…I wouldn’t be so certain that you like her more than I do - I’d consider Nina Simone to be in a class of her own, with her unique voice and style. Some vocalists sound similar to others, but not her! I’m almost 70 yrs old now and ❤️ ALL genres of music! The age of a song/artist doesn’t matter - it’s all about the talent of the person, and nothing else imo. I’ve enjoyed the other ones Nina’s done (those I’ve been able to find) at the same live concert too. *** In a way she reminds me of Etta James and Edith Piaf in that they are all classic and timeless, and while there are many ‘covers’ that others have done on their versions, they don’t come close.
Great comment! Here's an English translation (using school French - c'etait compulsaire a mon ecole!): "This is a voice of gold, an incredible pianist, a queen, that everybody in the world should hear at least once in their lives. A pure moment of happiness." Nina Simone struggled in life, and her bipolar disorder was coming out in her concerts later on in Montreux etc. It was also sad that she had to live out her days in France and Switzerland after feeling rejected by her homeland, but I hope she was happy there in her own way. I think her early formal classical training was part of her greatness - something today's crappy pop musicians almost never have, which makes them forgettable in 10 years. La Reine entiere!
@@NinoNiemanThe1st yes! this country hurts those Artist who were and are part of the music experience that helped all survive the hard times and enjoy the good times. A free country that is not free of prejudices doesn't deserve that title.

Definitely me! 🙏 Nina forever!
I love Nina's music but this is not her best I'm afraid. She should have just sung it straight.

The best thing about this is it had been filmed otherwise I would never of seen her doing these songs with such emotion.
Wow, straight from the heart, and so naturally talented. RIP Lady.

This is an exquisite video that we are so lucky to have from such a while ago. She is a national treasure
Sadly the great Nina Simone was in an abusive relationship and when you listen to this song you can understand the emotions her voice evokes that are rooted in her real life.

Do yourself a favor and look up HERE COMES THE SUN. Her vocals and piano solo take that song to another level. I've enjoyed that piece for 30 years now and never tire of it.
Her performances in the SUMMER OF SOUL documentary was otherworldly!!
Strange Fruit is ... the lyrics alone are enough to elicit tears-- Nina owns that song; you cannot deny the hurt, anger, pain ... the incomprehensible act of lynching another human being...
So many have done justice in singing that piece; I would suggest you listen to any of her many recorded versions.
If you want a good started album, you could start with THE BEST OF... from a reputable record co (one she recorded for would be the best bet).
Then, move on to her live music.
She was electric (most times) live. What a force.
I hope her discography brings you as much joy (musically) and elicits as many deep, thoughtful, and important emotions-- (many with great joy!), as her discography brings to and elicits within me.
I'm happy you have discovered the genius of Nina Simone.
Hi Bhakti
Sure I will and let you know and I am sure I am in for a treat of a heavenly voice of a goddess talking to you from above!
Thank you so much.

Me too😅
@@BHAKTIBROPHYThanks for your awesome post about this goddess of soul music.
Nina lives on in 2024 and beyond. Nina FOREVER ❤
Her performance was absolutely flawless! I love the way she improvised! She was a force of nature!
Nina is a bonafide piano monster. Behold, the POWER!!
@@PeterRabbit53 Bam! SAY-DAT-Shi.....!
She's still amazing after all these years
La letra, música e interpretación es excelente 🎤🎹🎸🥁🎛🎶🙌😢Nina Simone es una maestra🙌🎤💪
I can't listen without breaking down.. Nina is one of those artists that can not be replicated.
What a woman ! What a singer ! What an artist !
I have always adored this fine lady. She's so smoooooth.
My first time ever hearing this!!! 2024. Phenomenal in every aspect!! Thank you for blessing us with your talents!!
Finding out how badly she was abused by husbands makes me see her pain even more individually and deeply. We didn't deserve her and she didn't deserve what she got. May The Good Lord repay her musical lovingkindness eternally.
I agree and yet her own daughter says she was abusive to her. Humans are complex
@@shaunaevans755 broken people making broken people
@@shaunaevans755 When reading her autobiography, even thought it is written from her point of view, you guess that it was difficult for her daughter to go through all these changes. What make you excuse here is when you realize most man in her life gave her everything at the begining but took everything by the end. She was going on board a rollercoaster of emotions, she was not driving her life. She just wanted to focus on playing the piano, she became a star before she even realized, and she trusted other people too much.

Ma grand mère était très Fan, en cette belle période, prenons quelques instants pour écouter ça !!!!
Bonjour tout le monde a New York sur le site de la télé et je suis en train de faire un tour au phare de la télé et je suis en train de faire un tour au phare de la télé et je suis en train de faire un tour au phare.......!!!!💚😈🇨🇵😜☢️🖤
Amazing performance. I watch it every day.
How i would have loved to watch her live.
Nina Simone is a genius.
Nina LOVES Singing
No Doubt.
Nina was a rare woman indeed who expressed her inner spirit about loving somebody! The depth of her emotion was earth shattering and pure. Let this song sizzle in your spirit in hope someday and somebody would love you as sincerely and deeply!!! Her music still touch our soul. We miss you sis*star!! ❤333
Nina Simone was and always will be the light of hope that the world needs ♡
Not sure about that!
She was desperate in her life 😢
Música, luxo e sofisticação!
ça fait seulement 3 fois que je là regarde cette vidéo ... et je viens de comprendre qu'il me faudra beaucoup de visionnages pour comprendre ... au moins , voir ce qu'il s'est passé
Mercy! Her voice is gorgeous. ❤
Que bonito es el arte que Dios nos presta. Ésas mujeres que están bailando son una hermosura. Soy blanco pero mi abuela era negrita y me siento muy bien compartiendo con personas agradables. Son muchas mis amistades que AMO y entienden lo que llevo en la sangre. Los idiotas que no saben pues que sufran. El color se lleva por dentro.❤
Enjoying this in 2024 from Sierra Leone ❤
Stunning performance. Nina's talent was staggering, way out there on her own, no one came close to her.
I'm in tears listening to this
Sounds great the way she sing it I'm 64 and I love her sound
❤ I’ve heard and seen MANY videos of others cover this song, but NOBODY does it justice like NINA SIMONE imo! The amount of soulful emotion and feeling of her voice that she brings to my heart and soul is like no other has been able to do! 👍
אין כמו אימא בעולם!!!!!!!
Elaine,i've just read exactly what i wanted to write as a comment.I think i enjoy her music more than you do...kkkk.Writing from Nigeria.

@@godfreymokobia9101 אין כמו אימא בעולם!!!!!!!!
@@godfreymokobia9101 If I wrote what you wanted to do, it’s ok with me if you still want to add your own (lol) 😉! But…I wouldn’t be so certain that you like her more than I do - I’d consider Nina Simone to be in a class of her own, with her unique voice and style. Some vocalists sound similar to others, but not her! I’m almost 70 yrs old now and ❤️ ALL genres of music! The age of a song/artist doesn’t matter - it’s all about the talent of the person, and nothing else imo. I’ve enjoyed the other ones Nina’s done (those I’ve been able to find) at the same live concert too. *** In a way she reminds me of Etta James and Edith Piaf in that they are all classic and timeless, and while there are many ‘covers’ that others have done on their versions, they don’t come close.

From North Paris beyond the highway, you know !
Almost french... But i got life as Nina and to love somebody..it's been a long long Time 🤭🤭✨🧚
C'est une voix d'or, une pianiste incroyable, une reine, que tout le monde devrait au moins écouter une fois dans sa vie 😇😇.
Pur moment de bonheur 👍👍
Great comment! Here's an English translation (using school French - c'etait compulsaire a mon ecole!):
"This is a voice of gold, an incredible pianist, a queen, that everybody in the world should hear at least once in their lives. A pure moment of happiness."
Nina Simone struggled in life, and her bipolar disorder was coming out in her concerts later on in Montreux etc. It was also sad that she had to live out her days in France and Switzerland after feeling rejected by her homeland, but I hope she was happy there in her own way. I think her early formal classical training was part of her greatness - something today's crappy pop musicians almost never have, which makes them forgettable in 10 years. La Reine entiere!
@@NinoNiemanThe1st yes! this country hurts those Artist who were and are part of the music experience that helped all survive the hard times and enjoy the good times. A free country that is not free of prejudices doesn't deserve that title.
@@capriblue53 Mais oui! ("Yes indeed ' I think in English to your comment).
אין כמו אימא בעולם!!!!!!!
Bien dit!
By God's of my Ancestors! The sisters love still reverberate even today. So long my beautiful sister, so long 😢😢😢❤❤❤
