Nina Simone - Wild Is The Wind (Live In New York 1964)

Nina Simone - Wild Is The Wind (Live in New York 1964 from the 1966 album of the same name) To my knowledge there is no footage of Miss Simone performing this and no official video for the song so I made one to accompany it.

Outstanding. Nina Simone died in 2003, but her music is timeless and she is is still alive in our hearts.

[@kisista1579]

She never won a Grammy for any of her amazing music. So underrated then but so beloved now. Happy Birthday Miss Simone!!!!

Wild Is the Wind 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 Give me more than one caress Satisfy this hungriness Let the wind blow through your heart For wild is the wind 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 a leaf clings to a tree Oh my darling, cling to me For we're creatures of the wind And wild is the wind So wild is the wind You touch me I hear the sound of mandolins You kiss me With your kiss my life begins Daddy, you're spring to me All things to me Don't you know you're life itself Like a leaf clings to a tree Oh my darling, cling to me For we're creatures of the wind And wild is the wind So wild is the wind Wild is the wind Wild is the wind Wild is the wind Dimitri Tiomkin / Ned Washington

[@florincoter1988]

I believe Nina did not sing AND played the piano. This is what we see. She was making music. She was making it with every cell in her body. Some were at the vocal chords, some were at her fingertips, some...

"I studied to become the first Black classical pianist in America and that's all that was on my mind." -Nina Simone

[@ekscentar1]

OMG, until this moment I thought this was a Bowie's song and it was one of the most wonderful songs to me! But now, after Nina's interpretation, I have to admit that this one is the best I've ever heard! The woman was absolutely outside all known frames, I shake with delight while listening to her!

[@shawnriffhard]

Johnny Mathis did the original. I believe from the 1957 movie of the same name.

[@lavenderfields2910]

This is hauntingly beautiful ! You should listen to George Michael's cover, too, from his Symphonica tour, but not the version from Royal Albert Hall ! He upped the tempo partway thru & I don't like it near as well !

I had the fortune to meet Nina on July, 1971 at her home. I was 14 and still can remember her with awe and fascination. She was amazing. Although I was there many for less than an hour, that experience is one of the greatest prizes in my soul. Thank you dear Nina.

i have to admit that i recently began listen to her music....dont know why i waited so long but her vocals speak to the soul on so many different levels...i think what draws ppl to her music is her authenticity cause unapologetically black although she was not accepted because she was so different

Miss Nina Simone. A very talented artist. The time was not ready for her. Very sad.

Stunning! This interpretation is an extraordinary musical journey... almost an existentialist experience!
