It’s been a while since I listened to this but it always pops up in my head and in my ears. Strangely, it reminds me so much of my mum but I never knew if she listened to Nina Simone herself. It’s been 10 years since her passing and this song, despite having no real connection to her always brings me to tears. Same way as Barbers “Adagio for Strings, Op. 11” does. Again, no notable connection to her yet it just FEELS like her. Strange isn’t it.
