I veri cantanti sono sempre stati afro -americani,i copioni sono sempre statunitensi e Europei,poi ci sono gli altri Paesi Mondiali!!da Giuseppe Tambuzzo di Milano Lombardia Italia 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹
There is something about her!! She is so odd in a powerfully good way. I can't get enough of the way she speaks/ acts/ sings. It's entertaining beyond a way I can put into words. When she stands up after the performance and looks into the crowd. It's almost as if she see's every one in it. Old/ young. Good/ Evil - She hopes they got the message - doesn't really care if they were entertained. Because you can't care about every body with their unique lives and thoughts , trials and tribulations. You care for your own and spread a good message of strength and love - THAT is how you are going to make the world a better place - as a individual living in it.
And nowadays all USA has to praise is Beyonce and Etcétera , etcétera, etcétera… with more visuals than soul. Musicians nowadays don’t show their soul, they’r just after the money and it shows 😢
She is intense! Her presence made me feel more normal than I've ever felt in my whole life. That was a priceless dose of perspective and I thank you for the lingering sense of sanity.
@@ld2588 her medical issues were so sever that she had to be on medication to be able to function. Check out the documentary that's authorized. It's intense.
Good Observation. Indeed, it is an old friend to her. She first climbed up on the piano bench at 3 yrs old. And played songs by ear. Before long, she began playing the piano at her mother's church. Check out her Autobiograhy: "I Got A Spell On You" (1991)
@@aaliyahdouglass2166 Check out Her on BBC here in the tube... think it was 1999...so it did...gonna check it out myself next...cuz not sure how she felt about it tho
Ms. Simone, artistic in every sense of its meaning. Inspiration is power and she was deeply enriched. Love her for her courage fearlessness and confidence.
Nina simone es un tesoro para la humanidad,una mujer,compositora,la mas negra entre la las negras.activista.una verdadera"influencer".una defensora d los derechos civiles.
I totally agree but the thing is ...now a day people do not really liston to the music but what is around it....😅😅😅😅 Taylor not even have 10% of this artist...but she really make it.😮😮😮😮😮
Listen to everything all her old stuff she is one hell of a talent she was special. People were smarter then more insightful sister Rosetta tharpe is amazing too they really are the foundation of music as we know today
What a brilliant mind and strong persona. The world needed, and needs, miss Nina Simone. Never have I seen someone find a way to smile, laugh, through the hardest of situations while still carrying the struggle thru her expressions. True power.
GOD--Nina is so.so.BLOODY BRILLIANT. Had the honor in late 60's to see Nina live at a venue called Ram Jam Club,in Brixton,London,while i was on a working holiday. She of course was magnificent & had the audience in the palm of her hands. I will never forget that time.
Amy Winehouse, so many artists from Don's Tune.. ua-cam.com/users/bongo128 ... Some men like Sam Myers, Roger Ridley, GrandPa Elliot...are genius too..
I feel so much love and respect for this great woman and extraordinary, magnificent artist. I can feel in my heart the great oppression that she and African Americans have suffered so much. Nina is an angel.
Nina Simone was just genius. For those who can't get her, just listen to the words of the song, and in time the emotion will hit you (at least, I hope so) and you will see a whole new world. This is not your kid sister's music. Thanks for posting this one-it's so Nina!
I agree her lyrics just fill you with joy knowing ATLEAST 1 person knew what you felt.... this applies to all races, classes, ethnicities in the past, present and God help us who have it better now, in the future
Billie Holliday recorded this song in 1939! She wrote after seeing a man swinging in The trees, during a bus tour when they weren’t even allowed to use bathrooms, hotels or stay in the places they performed in. Trump and his cronies want to make America great again? Fuck em. We want a better world.
@@ramonaestrada601 I think you might be confused with Strange Fruit ? This was written in the 60's by Langston Hughes and Nina Simone and references the Vietnam War.
j. inksetter please research again Billie Holliday first sang this song in the 30/40s. So how could it been written in the 60s. Perhaps another similar song but since I’m a 60s lady born in 1945, I’d think I’d recall it since I was very politically involved then,
@@ramonaestrada601 I would love to hear this song performed by Billie Holiday if you can share a link - I'm sure it would be fantastic. I did research and could not find any trace of this on the internet, I would be happy if I could be contradicted with research from you or anyone else.
Anyone noticed her wink.? Who do you think was the reciver? 3:25 I can't get enough of her confidence. Of her face and lips the way she talks and transitions. She is a magnet.
I'm old, but I only found Nina a week ago. To say it has been an absolute revelation to hear her is a massive understatement. She is a tour de force. One of the many things which have truly stood out to me, aside from her brilliant musicianship, is her fearless devotion to the 'feel' of the song. Amazing. 💜

Thnx for uploading! This video has everything why I love Nina Simone: her piano playing, humor, the blues and her activism. What a woman, too bad I never saw her live, this video shows what an amazing musician she was. Certain I'm gonna return to watch it again....
The word I, in my humble opinion, think most describes Nina is authentic. Which, again, in my humble opinion, is the highest compliment I can give. Nina Simone kept it real and her power lives on in her recorded works. I salute you Sista.
She was the very essence of authenticity. I said the same thing on another clip. She worked very hard at always being present and living her truth. Even when it tormented her or she was overcome by her mental illness.
I can't watch her without feeling the highest form of love and a such deep sadness. the bit when she goes from talking about stuff she was really thinking about to snapping herself back into performer mode, back into songstress and genius musician. I don't think anyone has ever been more honest in the way they carry themselves on stage and I think it was due to pain and exhaustion she felt. I wish she could have lived in a world free of racism and bullshit inequality. one of the greatest beloveds in my life to date.
She´s Larger than Life ... God bless Nina Simone ... In very VERY loving memory of Mr. Eunice Katherine Waymon (1933 - 2003 R.I.P. Gone but NOT forgotten).
A pleurer ....Une voix rare qui vous transporte, vers un ailleurs imaginaire...Je l'adore cette Très Grande Artiste, que j'ai découverte sur le tard ! AMAZING NINA SIMONE, will never forget your voice, your music
In our world the best stay unappreciated whilst the talent less are praded like a bright stars. Nina simone you were the best there were and the brightest of all stars. Your music is truly timeless and full of meaning.
Cowards the lot of you. Timing and relevance gives you all the necessity to be a participant. Just make your words tasty and adding (not detracting) to the flavour
“The media is alive. It’s REAL.”- Nina Simone. Feeling heartbroken at a verdict today in the news. African American and all Beings of Color, know that your gay and Lezbian brothers and Sisters stand with you against injustice.

Maureen Wagg it's too damn bad nobody was ready to listen. MLK Jr., JFK, Che Guevara, Malcolm X, Muhammad Ali, Bobby Kennedy, Billie Holiday, people were speaking truth for decades, centuries actually, but after a few were murdered or imprisoned, the movement was always slowed way down. "They" could never stop it completely though and it seems more folks are ready to listen again. Let's hope Maureen, take care!
She stood against so much pressure and still created such beautiful music. she is surely one of the greatest musicians in musical history!
Just be kind to the Hebrews. Every Nation enslaved us.

And nowadays all USA has to praise is Beyonce and Etcétera , etcétera, etcétera… with more visuals than soul. Musicians nowadays don’t show their soul, they’r just after the money and it shows 😢
She was bipolar
She kept it hidden from the public .
She was fighting multiple battles on many levels.
God bless her.
The swing in both the drummer and her playing.. 🔥🔥 just magical 🖤🖤
She is intense! Her presence made me feel more normal than I've ever felt in my whole life. That was a priceless dose of perspective and I thank you for the lingering sense of sanity.
Robin M couldn’t agree more.
Special sounds from a great era. And not a diva by today's "X Factor" standard a diva by life's standard
she had mental illness and substance abuse issues.
@@ld2588 her medical issues were so sever that she had to be on medication to be able to function. Check out the documentary that's authorized. It's intense.
An intense person in a crazy world is like the chicken and the egg - which came first?
How are there so many downvotes to this video? I Just don't understand. This video is so full of life, and beauty, and honesty.
Black polished skin, amazing 4C textured afro hair, beautiful white teeth. She was a black beauty.

She's uninventable - she just is.
Brilliant!!!!

Imagine all the great artist we never got to know because they gave up on their dreams or had to work regular jobs
Damn!! Yes!
Ive spent a night watching and listening to black female singers. My night is not complete until I watch and listen to Nina Simone. Just love her!!
How are you doing today my name is Eric Moore
Nina Simone plays the piano likes it’s an old friend
it is.
Burning Hippies Well she was classically trained

this cooler saying i have ever heard
Classically trained pianist. They wouldn't allow blacks to perform in the classical music genre.

Magnificence.
Power.
Attitude.
Just one of a kind.
she hated rap.

She's like a jazz rap. I get wym, she could be considered a founder for rap tbh.
The true meaning of rap before the meaning was lost is Rhythm And Poetry... So yes I agree with you!
Ms. Simone, artistic in every sense of its meaning. Inspiration is power and she was deeply enriched. Love her for her courage fearlessness and confidence.

Where are the Nina Simones of our time? Where are the genuine, witty, talented, beautiful and straightforward ones?
The conditions that create character have been whittled away. The limitations that create genius have been removed.

NINA SIMONE LYRICS
"The Backlash Blues"
Mr. Backlash, Mr. Backlash
Just who do think I am
You raise my taxes, freeze my wages
And send my son to Vietnam
You give me second class houses
And second class schools
Do you think that alla colored folks
Are just second class fools
Mr. Backlash, I'm gonna leave you
With the backlash blues
When I try to find a job
To earn a little cash
All you got to offer
Is your mean old white backlash
But the world is big
Big and bright and round
And it's full of folks like me
Who are black, yellow, beige and brown
Mr. Backlash, I'm gonna leave you
With the backlash blues
Mr. Backlash, Mr. Backlash
Just what do you think I got to lose
I'm gonna leave you
With the backlash blues
You're the one will have the blues
Not me, just wait and see
Powerful lyrics, still painfully relevant today
Thank you for putting the lyrics up!🙏
I love this ❤️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Thankyou

Wow, what a powerful performance, love how Nina spoke the truth regardless of how much "backlash" she got.
she never got a backlash, she was beaten down by racism very day of her life, what she said was all she had left to say
She's amazing, love our African ladies
You always gotta give the drummer some.
Love her, she is the truth!! Listen how she tells her stories, sing on!!🎤🎤☮️
If the magic of music is best measured by how emotionally disruptive it can be, then this girl Nina is the greatest of all time
