      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!
      👆🏼🙏♥️

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!

      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.

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.

      @@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.

    Nina really did light the way, for all to follow.. wether you are black or white or anything in between, like it matters anyway right now in 2024 but as a mixed race girl in a crazy world still fighting without the prejudice that she fought for.. I am amongst the lucky to have travelled and met incredible people and to have seen through my own eyes without the influence of only propaganda that the only thing that truly separates us as humans is not religion or colour or culture it is good and bad and fuck sake why can't we come together and just be happy to be alive!

      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!
