Nina Simone_-_Wild Is The Wind

[@syrinx114]

My dad gave me a cassette tape of Nina Simone when I was little. In later years he went deaf and died several years after that of liver failure following a long time of silence and loneliness. I listen to this and cry for the haunting voice and beauty of the song and for remembering my dad. I hope in some place he can hear this again. RIP Nina and Dad.

[@shellecapos8574]

I’m sorry he was lonely. No one should have to be lonely- it’s painful and worse than any disease.

[@mauriciomontoya1670]

Your ,Dad`s Soul clings to You , indeed

May your Father Rest In Peace.

May he rest in peace

Praying for him and his generations on earth xx blessed music

[@cuchelo1]

It's not about musical perfection- it's about conveying emotion in every moment. Like the song is moving through her instead of her performing it. Amazing.

[@bliffblam]

Never be another Nina. I think people are so mesmerized by her voice they forget about her piano skills. It's so beyond talent. It's the pouring out of a tortured soul

[@laurenl1873]

noiceeeee alliteration and imagery '😍

[@mgedeonj3]

That was the case for Nat King Cole. People forgot Nat was a piano player first before he discovered he could sing. Imagine that!

[@heleneroberge2934]

This Lady was gift for a lot of thing hypersensible Lady but with skill like composition, etc...political for MK she was a unique, atypique, sensual and courageous Lady for me. Lucky to stills listen to her musical sings.

[@joywalsh5048]

I hope that Nina Simone and David Bowie are singing this song together in some alternate universe today.

[@XAVIERCUERVO]

+Joy Walsh but first he has to play 'under pressure' with Freddie Mercury

[@farine5]

+Joy Walsh of course they are ;) yes with Freddy mercury, kurt cobain, and all the goods one's never get such music today ...

I think this is my most favorite song of all time.

[@MokeleMbembeLives]

Same here.

[@patty518]

Absolutely! Mine too.

[@lavocedargento]

I can't, I can't... this song is beyond beauty or greatness. It's a pure expression of life, freed from any context or particularism. It's an unrepeatable existential act.

[@robertawilson142]

Nina Simone is not an artist that you can simply listen to. You must hear her. You must understand her. She is not always peaceful. She is not always understood, but within these different moments, she is loved for who she is. angry.. deeply felt.. complex.. dark.. and ever fascinating.. like a kaleidoscope.. she will forever be the High Priestess of Soul. Her music.. it’s something to allow to tinkle in the background on a rainy night.. just let her words rain upon you..

[@Angiebobangie16]

If I am a creature of the wind she was a tornado beautiful, powerful and ferocious. Driven by such feelings and contempt few could understand, and fewer brave enough to battle out load for the world to hear.

[@bm30ify]

How many times have you reread your half drunk half pretentious bullshit to see how many likes you got ….

[@AnAwakenedSaxon]

That's a wonderful summary - from you but one creature of The Wind. Good sailing to you.

[@vadimasmir]

I had first heard this song in Johnny Mathis' rendition back in 1957-58 in Russia and fell for it. Never thought it could be sung better. Until, in late 80s, I heard David Bowie singing this tune (written as it turned to be by Dimitri Tiomkin, waw!) and thought it was just stunning. Today, 20 years as in another century, I hear it for the first time from Nina Simone. And I think to myself, there is no sky limits for individual person's perfection. Alas, only for individual yet. They keep on making our days and compensate for big sustained imperfections. Our own, too.

[@paulnicholson474]

Lovely commentry

[@peacelovebird]

i believe that nina was quite possibly the most beautiful and perfect being to ever walk the earth.

[@saraivatoledo1842]

[@edwinrivera8449]

Silk, a natural fabric spun from caterpillars. That is the only way to describe the voice of Nina Simone. No one can sing, or look like her. Her beauty, no one can hold a candle to her. To make a movie of her life... only an angel from Haven could play her part. No human will ever sing like Nina Simone. She was God sent. So sad knowing that music today, will never know what music really is. The greats are gone to Haven.

[@elenapalacios6853]

I totally agree with you, humans have no chance of someone like her.ever again.

[@liedindingn9596]

100% true, a deepness without comparison, ooh, I agree...

[@tylergirlrobinson1820]

This brought me to tears! Awesome. Thank you, Nina Simone. RIP.

one of the most beautiful songs I've heard..

[@misosoup35]

i adore David Bowie's Wild is the Wind, but just first love me love love me from Nina Simone blew me away.... Stunning performance... and that gentle piano, full of love... as this song is. It's that lingering pain underneath it all that gets you, right?

[@heatheronce7411]

listening to Nina is like taking a dip in warm water and being dried with a velvet towel.....

[@PrettyLies007]

You said it perfectly.

[@hlathi69]

Well said. 👌🏾

[@lealippard1045]

Wow. Accurate description.

[@zeliabora2945]

Nina incorporated a sort of an existential pain. The beauty of her interpretation says this.

[@smezher]

Thanks to technology for allowing great artists and voices to live forever...❤

[@loelion9513]

Nina Simone sang her face off. Raw. Soul. Power. Elegance. Unigue. Eccentric. Eclectic. Beautiful. And never could anyone put her in any Boxes..She seem so FEARLESS.

[@lakeisharobinson2132]

Absolutely!

[@NielJurist]

Absolutely one of my favorite songs of all time. Growing up, mom used to play Nina Simone and sing along (Mom's voice is amazing). I fell in love with Nina Simone's music!

[@lakeisharobinson2132]

Likewise!

[@akdn2010]

THIS IS A MASTERPIECE AND THE VIDEO CLIP MAKES YOU CRY EVERY TIME WATCHING IT.....

[@sheaclarkson8206]

This song is dedicated to someone whom has moved on with her life…. But the beauty of this song… is an example of the moments I was allowed to spend with her…..::: ❤Mindi “Joy” ❤️

[@Eveycb]

there's no words to express what i feel every second i listen to her

[@sesunsetlife8895]

My goodness. This is one of the most moving songs I've ever heard.

[@sayparis282]

Best rendition.... so tragic, so Nina, so perfect!!! and what about the piano bridge.... what's beyond perfection??

[@Angiebobangie16]

I thought I heard all of Nina's performances. How have I missed this breathtaking, feeling invoking, goosebump bringing song? I'm hooked.

[@abderraghariib]

This song gets back our humanity

[@audiophile64]

Other worldly beautiful.Loved David Bowies version but this is even more amazing.The aching piano behind that voice.

[@Yanto-Bardic]

Someone should do a film of her life....For Nina was Genius and deserves to be truly honoured and remembered. What a Voice.

[@pimentdesiles]

I love to sing but when I listen to Nina, I can only listen to her gifted voice. What an amazing voice.

[@m.m1160]

She studied to become the first AA concert pianist, this is what she wanted to be but was not accepted by the privileged. Is anybody listening to the piano as she sings? You can hear the concert pianist come out starting at 2:14 and onward. I love the piano sound as she's singing. Incredible

[@jermiahduddleston4695]

This comment is stupid. Look up Florence Smith Price. This is my favorite song in the world. Nina sings it like she born solely for that purpose. Nina didnt write this song though, it was written by Dimitri Thiomkin.

[@zeliabora2945]

The most beautiful interpretatíon of Wild is the Wind.

[@darkcinammon9845]

it is very deep

[@davidanthonystone5165]

Nina you were something else -----------I first saw you in 1967 at NYC Town Hall miss you

[@Maskofanarchy1]

One note from Nina is imbued with more soul than any of these modern pretenders could ever hope to achieve

[@fruitlantis]

Who asked?

[@richardn6768]

She's breathtaking. No need to insult others.

[@alliehahn7885]

Nina Simone, such a beautiful woman who felt such passion. She gave us her gift of song and music to experience ever more! Love to her spirit and her soul!

[@ARELIPAMELA12]

La sensación que deja NINA es unica...no puedo dejar de llorar por su voz, la música...las imagenes.. el pasado que duele, mi infancia, lo perdido salvajemente..........

[@davidlewis492]

This song for me is the thought of a woman who's out of my reach, the emptiness in my heart is a place for that lady alone.

[@23101979T]

Wow... I find your words somewhat comforting, cause I am in exact situation for some time now, in my life. And felt about the song exactly as you put it. And that little platonic time, that we share together, was often accompanied with Nina playing.. I guess I just had a need to confess something to someone, cause I couldn't say to anyone about her, and was moved by your words, so, just writing a bit.. Thanks anyway.

[@davidlewis492]

23101979T Good fortune to you.

[@zofiamn]

Love me, love me, love me, say you do Let me fly away with you For my love is like the wind, and wild is the wind Wild is the wind Give me more than one caress, satisfy this hungriness Let the wind blow through your heart For wild is the wind, wild is the wind CHORUS You touch me, I hear the sound of mandolins You kiss me With your kiss my life begins You're spring to me, all things to me Don't you know, you're life itself! Like the leaf clings to the tree, Oh, my darling, cling to me For we're like creatures of the wind, and wild is the wind Wild is the wind CHORUS Like the leaf clings to the tree, Oh, my darling, cling to me For we're like creatures in the wind, and wild is the wind Wild is the wind
