The first time one hears Nina Simone is a singular joy in life.
and Sarah Vaughn!!
So true; the first time I heard both Ms Nina and the divine Ms Sarah Vaughn, I was in ecstasy!!!
I remember it I was 14 and I was transfixed. She is one of a kind and gives you goosebumps every time.
I saw Sarah Vaughn in New York.Small venue, only 4 or 5 tables. So amazing!
Yup!
Oh my goodness... I've just heard a young person say they've never heard of Nina Simone before but they're about to listen to her sing, "Feeling Good" for the first time... I'm so excited for him i had to stop the vid at 33secs to process my excitement... it is such an insanely giddy feeling to know someone is about to have their mind blown!
I remember the first time i heard this song i was in my car and i had to pull over because i couldn't operate heavy machinery with that voice melting my mind. 😍
My father immigrated from Mexico in the early 50's and he was a big fan of Nina Simone "freedom is mine!" that lyric has always stuck with me since my Dad always sung it like he breaking free. RIP Dad you're free!!!!
I absolutely love watching these boys listen to the greats for the first time, but I just don't understand how they have never heard of Nina Simone or several other artist they've done videos on. Nina Simone should be taught in the history books! They need to have classes at school on music appreciation to expose our youth to the culture and history.
Identical feelings
@@yupitsyourmom3193 Amen amen😭 God rest your Dad💗
I can relate! First time i heard this it blew my mind, went into my soul🙌🏼
"Mississippi Goddamn". She wrote it in the midst of the civil rights, protesting the same things that people are protesting today.
Yes. unfortunately the freedom she was singing about only sort of happened and seems to have stopped progressing
My favorite song plus Young, Gifted, and Black ❤️🖤💚❤️🖤💚❤️🖤💚❤️🖤💚
It's the bravest song I've ever heard. Mad, huge love for it.
Yes. Mississippi Goddamn
Her "Strange Fruit" is dark, it's about lynching and police brutality and the lives taken by white chauvenist bigots.
As a 60 something gay man who's favorite artists are Billie Holiday, Bobbie Gentry and Nina Simone , the beautiful reaction of this young man to such artistry did my heart a hell of a lot of good. Thank you
I'm a few years older than you, but as a mid-60s gay man (who's originally from Gentry's home state) I agree. I first heard her when I was in elementary school -- like in 1961, '62? My sister had a record but no cover. "Forbidden Fruit" was the track that nailed it down for me -- "Eve and Adam had a garden, everything was great, then one day a voice said, 'Pardon, miss, my name is snake...'" I looked for that elpee and that track for years and years...finally found a British re-issue on CD several years ago. Hallelujah!!!
Dusty Springfield
She had her share of pain, but still she rose! Can't stop sheer talent! Loved Nina Simone since I heard her as a kid.
A Agree 💜
I so agree!
My dad used to say he knew an artist "had it" when he had to pause the record and just walk it off around the room for a bit. You personified that beautifully just now
Your Dad explained that perfectly. So true!
Dad is soooo right! 😂😂😂
Thomas Bell
BE in your feelings!
This song hits me that way, every time I hear it!
Blessings!❤️
@Alex Leblanc white loved my teens wow music now made my Soul always. Get rid of this shit it's Music Soul not colour never let this beautiful music die.
I amnow listening to my Utmost Favourites ever, Isaac Hayes and Millie Jackson, OMG listen to Royal Rappin. Whòòooooooo Hàaaaaaaaa.💋💘💞👍.x
I’m not sure if anyone’s said this yet, but Nina Simone studied classical piano at the Juilliard School in NYC. She wasn’t just a soulful singer, but an exceptionally well-trained pianist and musician. She is timeless, so glad you’ve discovered her.
Oh my gosh! I didn’t know this! I’ve loved Nina Simone for a few decades now. Thank you for letting us know!
Her piano playing was phenomenal..like she and the band were doing one song and her fingers were playing something completely different..
Suzanne Lemieux there’s a Netflix movie called « what happened Miss Simone ? »
I know, I've seen it and absolutely loved it! So much trouble in that woman's life...and such wonderful art..
Yes....that's it. Timeless!
God I love watching you listening to this. I’m a 40 year old European white guy and I feel I know exactly how you feel at every single note. Music is the universal language and nobody can reach Nina Simone when it comes to relating pain, resilience and power. She was a fucking genius.
Music is one soul speaking to another.
50 y/o white american from the woods of Oregon whose is love with this young man and his bringing people together this way = with a higher purpose = angel on earth = gratitude
German White 43 yo and i LOVE this Woman very much. She Was Great!
Love and Peace to All people.

Son, you are giving yourself an education , and the value cannot be measured. You are carving yourself out deeper from the inside out and polishing the walls as slick as glass
Heidi, the artistry of your words 💥💥💥
Wow. What a nice description of having diverse musical taste!
Well said, Heidi! It is most heartening to see this open-minded young man, navigating the rich waters of culture.
So well said
Beautifully said
Nina was pure BLACK MAGIC. No one will ever sing like her.
😍😍😍
human magic.
So true listen to her vocals you can feel it in your soul
Truth!
It's crazy how Nina's voice does that to everyone, regardless of age or generation.
Or race.. that song hits you like a hammer
Agreed. I remember the first time I heard her voice. Endless chills. And still to this day she gets me every single time.
So true
Anyone who doesn’t appreciate this incredible woman’s voice has no soul, no heart and no humanity. IMHO
Facts!!!
Her voice is pure perfection.
Oh yea.
Testify!! 🙌🙌
Gosh
It never occurred to me that the absolute joy I feel when I hear Ms. Simone sing this song could possibly reach higher ground. But watching this young man experience her - and so clearly be moved by her - was simply thrilling. Goose bumps and pure happiness.
This was lovely to see. A young black man discovering Nina Simone, moved to the core.
I think he did this for views. let me see his reaction to her songs i French.
@@TheLadyNasferatu Cynical, aren't we?
❤️❤️
Was thinking the same ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Roberta Williams the world is a sad place when you only assume the negatives
“Freedom is mine and i know how i feel.” Ms. Simone defined freedom as the absence of fear. That changed my life. Love this
Sometimes we of an older generation assume the generations following us have experienced sounds and music as we did. It’s so great to see young strong guys not only remembering but appreciating artist that came before. Keeping our heritage going.
When you can't even handle it and need to pause to walk it off for a minute. The exact response to Nina Simone. 🖤❤️🖤❤️
If you become a Music Appreciation professor, you'll be the best one that ever lived.
I too was thinking that might be a good field for him to get into.
U nailed it.this kids this days will never understand music
I woke up on the morning of my husband's funeral, sunbeams streaming onto my face and this song in my head. Listen to the lyrics as if they were form a loved one who has passed, who is telling you just how fine and free they are now. It was an amazing message from him. And Nina Simone is a goddess.
Your comment gave me chills. It must have been a surreal moment for you. Bittersweet 🙃🤍
Cathy N Amen
❤️❤️❤️
❤❤ I've thought of it like that for my mother...all my love to you.
I've made it my informal (so far) request that this be my "Death Poem", the first song played when celebrating my life after i have left it. Thus song is so powerful and transcendent.
Nina is the Queen. She got fed up with the US and said fuck it I’m moving to France. She’s the most badass queen.
Sierra Leone, Africa for a while?
Soul sister to James Baldwin, of course
Speaking of French Nina No Me Quitte Pe is a beautiful treasure from Miss Simone
Her doc on Netflix is amazing
Bridgette Raes what’s it called?
I’ve watched this five times and I can’t get past the first two minutes without crying at your reaction. The whole video is heart opening. Goosebumps is right. You’ve now got a new 50yr old white lesbian from Australia subscriber. “Staying open” music lovers unite.
Music can be a highway to kindness and the veins that connect hearts... It knows no boundaries🌷🤗🎼🎺🎸🎻🥁🎹🎧🎙️🎷
I'm a week late to your party! But I'm here enjoying it right along with you! Deep southern Louisiana mother, grandmother who loves good music! And I absolutely love to watch new reactions to good tunes! New subscriber today! I've watched him react to Jolene as well! Awesome stuff!
One of my favorite artist!
My first time hearing it was decades ago, and I still break down and cry EVERY time I hear it.
In the early '00s I bought 5 CDs on my lunch break...Tina Marie, Dixie Chicks, Nirvana, John Coltrane, and Bob Marley. I person saw my collection and started a buzz in the office lol. So many were confused. Hilarious. I was actually REPLACING the CDs id lost in a move, 5 at a time. 51 y/o Black American female. Great 🎶🎵🎶 is universal.
Any music lover knows that “I gotta get up, do a lap, and sit TF back down” move 😂😂😂
Truth!
Yes. You have to walk it off when it is that good.
Young’n had to stand UP and walk around lol. Nina Simone never fails to make me tear up.
She made you stand UP! THAT is straight up THE ONLY reaction to Nina Simone. Love this and you xxx
Exactly!
“It doesn’t matter who you are, you’re going to feel it” - oh, yes...
Me: First time hearing? Man i know you lyin.
Him: gonna listen to some Nina Simpson
Me: well damn...he wasnt lyin
LOL!!!
Saaaaame 🤣🤣🤣
Same feeling
Who Dunnit He’s a baby I believe he never heard it before. He’s been brought up on crap music
@@personalcheeses8073 yeah, I believed it after I saw him reacting. He hasn't been exposed to the golden oldies, just that top 100 shit. Glad he's taking the initiative to broaden his listening experiences now.
Awww, Baby Boy, we are separated by decades, gender and culture and I am LOVING your reaction to this great song! Simpatico!
This young man has such a good heart.
This song can be interpreted so many different ways: release from slavery, release from prison, release from a miserable relationship, or finding God. A new dawn, a new day, a new life.
or simply falling in love. to me this has always been a lovesong.
It was orginally written by white men so no.
@@Secret-Serenity Art stands alone. Doesn't matter who wrote it - you decide what it makes you feel.
I see it as a murder ballad. She's my idol & as close to sacred as I get. She is who I name myself after. Praise be.
My partner of 5 years dumped me (decades ago) and I spent 3 months listening to Janis Joplin and licking my wounds. Then I moved to a new house with my best (platonic) friend. We played Nina as we packed. We played Nina as we moved. We named the house Feeling Good and held a wake for her in that home when she passed. Even now I think of going back to Feeling Good.
She is known as the High Priestess of Soul
NINA, is the refined essence of elegant pain and perfection. Forever sanctified and forever sacred. Like the beauty of the Nile lingering beyond history or time. She was a gift from God. 🙏🏽🌹🦋
You wrote this beautifully lol
Beautifully said.
Whew! 🤯🤯🤯🤯
Nina Simone was a civil rights leader and this was a civil rights song.
Everything Nina Simone sang was a civil rights song although this song was actually written by two Englishmen for a Broadway musical. Ain't that a bitch?
@Barbara Williams Wrong. This is a cover of English Actor and singer Anthony Newley's song.
@Dzsamila # It's a cover version it's played all the time on certain stations along with the original version by the English Singer and co-writer.
She was authentic. A woman of conviction.
The second part of your sentence is incorrect. This is not a civil rights song in any way lol
i watched jolene, johnny cash hurt, dream on aerosmith, and livin on a prayer bon jovi and i loved you. but you watching nina? yeah. YEAH. yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeah.
Her version of “I put a spell on you” will absolutely blow your mind. She is so amazing.
"it dont matter who you are, you gonna feel it". That's right. What a voice, what a message. Love your reaction.
He nailed her! Very perceptive, hearing the pain and history in her voice in his first time listening.
for real. her voice is so emotional and vulnerable in an incredibly powerful way, no matter who you are you are gonna hear every thing she’s saying and feel everything she’s conveying with the imagery and emotions through her voice.
Miss Simone about to take you to CHURCH. Check out “Young, Gifted, & Black” for an anthem of these times and times past
Yes!!!
Yesss! Me and my dad were jamming to that only a few days ago, xx
Yes!
Or “ I Want a little sugar in my bowl!”
She had a rough life and the pain in her voice transcends sex, race, class etc... and this song is a FEEELING. Sometimes artists/songs just put words to emotions you can’t express. And this is one of those songs. Beautiful.
OMG, This is the first time I heard Nina Simone singing this song! I've heard many covers of it, but I'm blown away with her artistry!! Holy crap! Wow!
Same, I had never heard Nina Simone do it. It has a whole different feeling and makes a LOT more sense when she sings it. I love it.
Same here! WOW.
She was the original for the song. Everyone else did a cover of it
Dude.
He frickin nailed it with "You gone feel what I'm saying" song. That was brilliant.
Dude, when those horns kick in after her opening always sends shivers down my spine. Great reaction vid.
Everything about this was beautiful.
If Nina doesn't hit you like this, you have no soul.
word
Etta James “I’d rather be blind” make me cry every time.
Should really try this Etta James track
Alecia Hutton Etta James! Love some Etta and Nina too! At Last from Etta is one of my all time faves! So soulful and with a bit of swank and swagger!❤️
We have a singer here Ireland called Mary Coughlan and she recorded the song also. I love both versions, just beautiful. 😘❤️
YAAAASSSS I LOVE MS JAMES!!!! Now SHE hits you in the soul!!!
Alecia Hutton one of my altimeter favs ❤️
“You’re gonna feel what I’m singing”. That is the best description of Nina Simone’s work that I’ve ever heard. I’m so happy to see your reaction to this.
You're one of my new favorite humans. Keep doing the good work of filling your own ears with great music, and introducing it out into the world. You matter!
Absolutely
Amen, amen, amen to all of that
Same! Just subscribed and followed on insta. Love this guy!!
His and his twins heartfelt, immediate and emotional connection to the new music, gets me in the feels every time♥️🌟
Same here.
People! Nina simone was great. Classically trained pianist, who started singing jazz clubs because she wasnt allowed to play concert piano because of her color. She was a strong activist. Better listen to strange fruit and goddamn Mississippi. I've loved her for over 50 years.
I cant bring myself to ever recommend strange fruit because that song fucking kills me every time and I just can't bring myself to others to that deep ass sorrow.
An important song for sure but Jesus. Its an open wound of a song.
Strange Fruit is Billie Holiday
She wasn't prevented from playing classical piano because of her color. There was an older neighbor in Tryon - Nina called this woman her white mama - who gave her piano lessons for free. That same woman and some other people in the community collected money to pay for Nina to go the Juliard, which she did. But more than anything, she wanted to attend the Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia. After finally auditioning, she didn't make the cut. They told her she was very good, close to being accepted, but told she needed a little more work. One of the professors offered to tutor her for free until she was able to audition for the next term, but Nina said no. For the rest of her life she held a grudge, blaming her failure to get into Curtis on racism. The Curtis Institute had accepted black students for years, and there were some black female students enrolled at the time Nina auditioned, but she didn't know that.
Anyway, everything happens for a reason, and maybe if she'd gotten her wish, she'd be a classical pianist and nobody would be able to enjoy her singing. Her loss was our gain. BTW it was while singing in clubs that Eunice Waymon changed her name to Nina Simone. She knew her parents wouldn't approve of that job, so she used the stage name.
@@juansierralonche9864 thank you. When I saw her playing at Lenny's on the Pike, I guess she still held the grudge.
This is truly one of the most emotional songs in my life. It was the song we played at my mums funeral to remember her beautiful life, but it was also my first dance at my wedding!! It tells every story!!
I have never been a huge fan of TH-cam. However, finding this channel makes me see why people love it. Watching your willingness to listen to new music with an open mind, and sharing your unfiltered reactions with us makes me feel good about the world, and reminds me of the joy of music. Thank you.
Feel the same way. It gives me hope and a nice feeling ❤️
You should watch reelblack channel I lot of movies, shows and documentaries from a long time ago.
If you like Nina, you'll love Billie Holiday. Does my heart good to see you appreciate this stuff ❤️
yes ! Billie could put all the feelings in a song.
Yes!! I requested Strange Fruit. Very timely, hope they give it a listen. Plus much more. Oooh, I'm gonna suggest Sarah Vaughn!!!!
Couldn't agree more!!
@@marymitchell1329 Sarah Vaughan has so many great tracks! So moving.
Listen to some Ella Fitzgerald too! ❤️
This is my favorite reaction hands down. He got her immediately, and what an important woman to get! XO
Another artist told me once that the only thing he wanted to do is turn people on to things they never thought about before. That's what this show is about! It is joy. I love it.
This made me cry. Music transcends everything.
Me too I cried. Her music touch my soul.
Love you, young man, and I love Nine Simone. It made me laugh/cry when you had to get up and walk around. Yeah, Miss Nina will do that to you.
The documentary “What Happened to Miss Simone” is on NETFLIX. You should definitely watch it. It is so relevant for the times we are in now with racial bias and the “new” Civil Rights movement. She was a force.
Appreciate the rec! Adding it to my list
Yes, just going to say this.
That documentary was amazing. It was so sad at times, but goddamn she was a total badass.
@@citimutts3288 The title is _What Happened, Miss Simone?_ th-cam.com/video/SdWfYz6VduM/w-d-xo.html
Her 1999 interview on BBC th-cam.com/video/8olEruTT_io/w-d-xo.html
Not to be missed
With the way things are in the country at the moment, you should listen to her 60s protest song "Mississippi G-dd*mn." Ms Simone wrote that one.
For a completely different take on this song, you should hear the songwriter, Anthony Newley, perform it. Ms Simone's version is iconic, but it's interesting to hear the original, too.
Oh, I've never heard the Newley rendition. Gonna look for that now.
@@wideawake5630 no nor me, going to check it too.
In the ghetto by Elvis Presley is a great song too. It has a sad deep message.
Have you guys heard her song.... "Mississippi Godamn"
Definitely worth a listen.
Oh ye, Thanks for the infectious positivity.😷👍
Hey, sweetheart- I had the privilege to see Miss Nina in concert - in the late 80's - she was ICONIC - dealt with a lot of racial prejudice back in the day -- she was an amazing concert pianist who was denied playing in the greatest halls in the U.S. - in later years, she lived in France - she was understandably bitter about the opportunities denied to her -- and very outspoken about that --she has so many fantastic songs -- one of my favorites is: My Baby Just Cares for Me - th-cam.com/video/eYSbUOoq4Vg/w-d-xo.html - there are many versions, but this one is super-simple and features her piano talent - so many, many, great songs by Nina - she NEVER got the credit she deserved - she is worth doing some research!
So wonderful that you managed to see her play & sing live, it must’ve been an incredible experience. Thank you for sharing it with everyone.
Wow, lucky you; some great memories there, for sure!
O M G! So lucky you, and you are so right, but she was special.
SO JEALOUS! LEGEND! Troubled yet talented~ Great Netflix doc!
I still have the newspaper clippings from when she passed away. Nina Simone was so incredible, one of my all time favorite voices to hear.
I really love it when you have to stop and walk around. Not everyone is wired to be able to Feel music like that
dude, it's really heartwarming to see how genuine is your passion and sensibility for good music. it makes us all remind to not forget our own excitement.
This is one of the best songs ever!
So true!
Yassss
If there’s one song we had to send into space, this should be it.👑
In 1977, NASA launched two spacecraft - Voyager 1 and 2 - to explore Jupiter, Saturn and beyond. Each carried a 12-inch gold plated record. Chuck Berry's Johnny B. Goode was on the record. The spacecraft are now more than 10 billion miles from Earth, beyond the reaches of our solar system. As far as anyone knows, the records are still intact, but no alien life has found them yet.
"You're gonna feel what I'm saying" Spot On. It hurts, it feels good. She's a genius.
Sinnerman, could possible be the best song ever sung.......Listen to that.
I listen to this track regularly.10 minutes of pure gold.
Oh, yeah!!!!!
Absolutely listen to Sinnerman.
Yes!!!! Love Nina and that song is one of her very best :-)
Although it's of a much lighter tone, her "Love Me or Leave Me" especially the classic live performance where the guitarist doing counterpoint can't quite keep up, is just...I mean.
Just...
She is combining Jazz and Bach-style polyphonic keyboard music!
Its one of those artistic performance where you witness a human "top the wind-swept heights with easy grace, where never lark nor even eagle flew"
Just so astonishing.
I feel joy in my heart seeing someone hear Nina Simone for the first time and have such a deep and emotional reaction. She was an uncompromising woman. Her voice is rich, soulful, and fearless. I love this channel. You guys are precious. I come back again and again to witness your love of music.
THIS song by THIS artist is an absolute masterpiece . Each time it's giving me goose bumps...
The one, the only, the high priestess herself, Empress Nina Simone. She could play Bach from memory, jump over to jazz just for giggles, and pull the heart out of you with her soulful pieces.
So sad that she wasn't able to go to the Curtis Institute. The world missed out on a wonderful classical pianist.
Well said
Amen to that💚🌟💯
Anytime I hear her voice I can face another day with gusto!
Your reaction moved me to tears. It made me wish I could hear this song for the first time again
This song makes me cry every time I listen to it and I’m ecstatic with your passionate reaction to hearing the remarkably brilliant Nina Simone for the first time. Yes, the pain in her voice you can feel it shoot through you like lightening and you will never be the same and thank God for that!!!! Love your channel!
Nina Simone is, IMO, the most important and talented singer in American history.
She did a lot with the civil rights movement. This song is about victories and hope. Mississippi Goddamn is about the the murder of Medgar Evers in Mississippi and the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing in Birmingham that killed four black girls.
Ten seconds in to the song, “man, this giving me goosebumps vibes.” Little man, grab your nuts and hold on to something, your about to go on a hell of a ride!
I love it.
TRUTH
So appreciate your reaction! Nina was a straight up goosebump singer, so happy you love it too.
When she started to scat and you lost your mind. Ah! My heart! That was a pleasure to watch. "Ne me quitte pas" by her will haunt you.
Feelin' Good was the first song I ever heard by Nina Simone. I was passing a store and they were playing it. I stood there frozen with all those emotions you describe coursing through me, but I couldn't move. Then afterwards I dug up everything I could find on her. The way I felt was that her emotions were belying the words and I could feel her pain in spite of the words she was singing.
The first time I ever heard the song or heard of Nina Simone was on Chuck. I felt cheated.
I was so impressed when he said he felt goosebumps. I'm one entire goosebump every time I hear this. She was an amazing talent that not enough people know about.
From a company that uses music to bring joy to people with dementia, we want to say you are doing a wonderful thing bringing a wide array of music to new generations and allowing those who loved this music in their youth to re-experience that feeling of discovery for the first time. #MusicIsMedicine. Bless.
You are doing wonderful work.
What a joy that must be to witness. Thank you for all you do!!
I saw a documentary at a film festival, maybe five years ago, about people doing that - it was both heartbreaking and heartlifting at the same time. Brava to you!
Well done 👍
I am so happy to see a new generation coming to appreciate the extraordinary Nina Simone. One of the absolute best there ever was, or ever will be.
You should also listen to My Baby Just Cares For Me, and Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood (which she sang the original version, and the Animals did a cover of).
"This is a straight up, 'You gonna feel what I'm sayin'' song". YES!!! What a blessing to watch you hear her for the first time. Thanks so much for all your videos.
Watching that first time reaction to Nina Simone is like discovering her all over again. The emotions she evokes are pure and raw. Loving your exploration of ‘music’- this is what brings the world together. We all sing in different languages and genres but it unites us. I will be 67 soon and this is such a refreshing ‘show’. Thank you for taking the time to do this.
Absolutely !
This reaction is so sincere and so appropriate. We must protect him at all costs, I stan for this type of content!
This had me in tears. Nina’s voice. Your reaction. So emotional. She was an exceptional woman with an exceptional talent. I felt your awe. The one we all have for her. I hope you’re gonna keep listening to all her music. You give me hope for the future. Thank you.
Made me cry too…seeing an open mind and heart experience the power and beauty of a genius like Ms. Simone for the very first time
The first time I heard Nina Simone singing this song I thought I was going to go into cardiac arrest. It was revolutionary for me to hear her voice. I love it that you loved her the same. It is impossible to not realize that we are listening to one of the best voices and interpreters ever when listening to her.
After my Dad came out of the British military, he bought a Nina Simone record with Feeling Good and My Baby Just Cares for Me. As a little girl, I remember dancing on his feet to her music. Beautiful voice but I instantly feel about 5 years old when I hear her. 😂
My 1st time hearing Nina. She's the bomb!💖 {56 yr old Native American grandma}
Congratulations, you have just met one of the greatest singers that ever was! No it's time for Ella Fitzgerald and Aretha Franklin 😊 Listen to respect and you will hear Whitney Houston mother in the background vocals 😊 And you have surely heard of Whitney right?
My dream if I met a genie would be to sing as good as Ella Fitzgerald. She was so gifted.
Looks like he was having a Holy Ghost moment.
Well yeah. That was only the second time I heard that, and I was about there, myself.
I just discovered this song a couple years ago and I'm over 50. Yes this song does it to you
I'm new to seeing these reactions and it warms my heart to see people expanding their music horizons. Also, Nina Simone should be a solid foundation to anyone's musical education.
I listen to this just riding down the road, Nina Simone and Etta James.
Etta James, too.....yes..
I carry Nina in my musical heart always, she is AMAZING! Forever and always.
When children are born, and generations transition to the new, the unexpected, even the impossible, there will always be the classics. Nina Simone must live forever in the hearts and minds of future generations. Her style and substance should never be forgotten, and should always be emulated wherever possible. It is good to see the young people catch on to what they are being denied from by this fast food consumer culture.
“Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood”, “Sinnerman” , and “Four Women” are faves of mine. 🤗 Happy listening young brotha!
Don't let me be misunderstood is my second favorite song of all time.
Sinnerman was awesome!
Sugar In My Bowl
I Love "Four Women" it's a great song
Yes to sinnerman and don’t let me be misunderstood! Will have to listen to the last one. Also, love my baby cares for me and Baltimore.
I love to see youngins appreciating this music. I subscribed strictly off your facial reactions...you took it to church! You’re an old soul, keep doin’
I feel so ROBBED. I've only ever heard the Michael Buble version and I like it, but this is SO MUCH BETTER. Never going back.
Yes totally what I was just about to say!! Nope never goin' back!
Sorry that you were sheltered like that lol.
Michael Buble?
You’re joking, right?
Good to check out the originals.
YESSS!!!...
You've been ROBBED! 🤓🤔😎
You might hurt yourself when you listen to Ms. Simone Sing “Wild is the Wind.” Looking forward to you hearing it! Listen on young King!
My favourite Bowie song!
Nina's version of this is my all time fave song. Bowie sis his because if Nina.
Watching this made me so happy. I had the same reaction when I first heard that song many many years ago. I was waiting to see his reaction to her end scat, and he did not disappoint.
Loving watching you discover music that many of us have enjoyed before you, and great to see you're so open minded and receptive to anything and everything!
Keep doing what you're doing. Stay safe
Check out Nina Simone's "Sinner Man." It's about 10 minutes long and worth every second. It's a genre of music all on its own.
I will thank you
Sinnerman is one of my absolute favorites by Nina Simone. I can listen to it on repeat for days! 💕
I was just about to type out a request for "Sinner Man." Would love to see his reaction to that one. It's an auditory work of art.
It totally makes The Thomas Crown Affair (the newer one w/Pierce Brosnan and Rene Russo). Sinner Man sets the sexy and smart tone. Get the soundtrack, too.
@@pcchau20 Do it, request it!
my first time was when I was 20, driving down the mountain on a hot summer day, heading to a music festival with my buddies, all windows open and Nina full volume... best time.....
You just stole my heart with this one! Ima bout to make my own reaction video, reacting to your reaction video of Nina. I was all smiles and clapping!! Thanks for adding some positivity to my day! Love you boys!
🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌Yeeeeeeeeeeeeees!!!!! I can't believe you reacted to this power classic and MASTER artist. Nina Simone was show stopper in her time. There were none that could compare. You are right, if you don't like and know music, then you wouldn't understand the VIBES that come from a song like this. I LOOOOOOOVE you guyz!! You are the number ONE reaction channel on the YT. Keep 'em coming bro!!!
Raw amazing vibes!!! Ohhhhh you just gotta BLAST it so loud and feel the power of her voice and that orchestra accompaniment!!! 🔥🔥🔥
That was epic 🤘🏼 I listen to Simone and read books about her. You literally paused this song to say you could already feel her pain, without knowing what she'd been through. You genuinely bring these songs back to life with new ears and interpretations on life today... TH-cam keeps me from commenting, so please read about her or or watch her bios
I love Nina Simone. She's one of the best singer's of all time.
