Ms. Lauryn is the only one that can match Nina's melancholic timbre and style. Literally no one else sings like they do, we've been blessed with these two women and I can't stop to listening to both versions.
El pianista le da un alma increíble a la canción. Lauryn hill es mi cantante favorita y la amo, pero hay que reconocer que aquí el pianista casi es de lo principal en el tema y lo que transmite.
Lauryn Hill goddamn! That was hauntingly beautiful. I knew she could blow but, this, she did the song Wild is the Wind, which is not an easy song to sing. I'm sure Miss. Simone is proud.
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 Wild is the wind Wild is the wind
I have ALWAYS LOVED LAURYN and I'm glad, so glad , however, I'm too much in LOVE with NINA SIMONE version that I can't hear anyone else's version right now. LAURYN didn't approach it with JAZZ but soulful still. I love you Ms. Lauryn Hill and I have been waiting for years for you return because you are Queen. Rest In Peace Nina Simone...could do no wrong with Music.
La voz de Lauryn es tan maravillosa. ¡Extrañaba un montón su voz! Se puede sentir a Simone pero sin dejar de sentir a Hill. Dos leyendas estas mujeres.

Lauryn"s talent is simply unrivaled. What depth, comtrol and command she has. Wow!!!!!!! This is amazing. I'm sure she is also playing the piano. Correct me if I wrong.
Nina Simone's life was a near-train wreck from almost start to finish. And the other film is done without any permission from her daughter or estate. However, this is a tough song done wonderfully well by the nearly as forgotten Lauryn Hill, whom I've always so admired. So be it.
+Kevin van de Koolwijk This album isn't a soundtrack to the film about her so I was referring to the documentary that came out at the time of the post.
+Lisa (Elfay) it is the companion to the doc that came out ( www.rollingstone.com/music/news/hear-lauryn-hills-sultry-nina-simone-cover-feeling-good-20150617 ) and not in any way linked to the movie that you discuss in your comment :)
Lauren hill is so low in the mix compared to the piano - and no need for that awful delay - bad production imho - it could have been so much better - who produced this ? Bad production

I❤ this song 🔥♥️🔥
NGL, David Bowie did it justice too.
,
2 of them, What are the odds of 2 magnificent singers such as these in a lifetime?
She has an intensity, an urgency...but the pianist is INCREDIBLE!!! Bravo, to both of these artists.
AGREE...THUMBS UP FOR THE PIANIST...AND LAURYN TOO!

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
Wild is the wind
Wild is the wind
Thank you, absolutely beautiful lyrics.
Appreciate your post.
~Wild is the wind🍃

Beautiful performance! Lauryn Hill sounds so sophisticated and soulful! Great song.

Se puede sentir a Simone pero sin dejar de sentir a Hill.
Dos leyendas estas mujeres.

Don't you just...?
GREATNESS.... Just pure GREATNESS

No really though!
it's michel ferre on the piano
Damn she killed this and gave it so much depth! Officially placing in my top 3 renditions : Nina , Amel and now Lauryn !
I can't even explain. ..how it made me feel.
Lol ikr ...
Pure perfection...
Lauryn"s talent is simply unrivaled. What depth, comtrol and command she has. Wow!!!!!!! This is amazing. I'm sure she is also playing the piano. Correct me if I wrong.
its Robert Glasper
This is evolutionary ALL OVER AGAIN.... WE ARE.. 🖤
SingItBoy
You look like the Vegan "you name it!" guy...car seat and all
Luv Lauryn Hill
Classic grew up listening to Nina Simone
Dope !!! Too much talent , glad your sharing your talent with the world again
Two of my favorite female vocalist ever. Lauryn singing a Nina rendition.
no one get you in the mood of sadness like nina simone.
Beautiful just beautiful 💟💟💟
To the 44 people who disliked this absolutely incredible performance - you people are clueless. Period.
The vocals are fine but IMO the song is way overproduced.
Love that borh Lauryn and amel larrieux have covered Niña.
Watching Kaori Sakamoto tonight 2024 World Figure Skating Championship Passion, skill 💯🔥 🏆🥇 💪🏽 @laurenhill 😇 Nina Simone 🎵
Wild is the wind...most beautiful voice...most beautiful song!
She is amazing. Wow!
Tears
I love you Ali forever.
I feel every breath of this song for you.
Phenomenal!
The pianist though.....
I knew Lauren had a nice voice but I still think of her as an MC. Hearing this was a surprising delight!
Stunned!!! This is MUSIC!
Dammmmmm that all I have to say 2020💗💓💞💞🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Wonderful interpretation .
I'm in love 😍
❤❤❤
I missed her. Amazing
Lauryn Hill could blow up her career by covering ALL of Nina's songs. All of them, as long as she stays away for hip-hop.
i love this song. i think my favorite take is esperanza's
Yeah you are right...but Lauryn ain't no slouch.
Did you ever hear Johnny Mathis version, i think his is the original. Its soooo great. Gives me shivers. Its on his ist Greatest hits album..
LOVELY...
This is soo beautiful. Amel Larrieux has a pretty remake as well
she does.
But Ms Hills version. ...takes u thru an emotional gauntlet. Imho
Lawwwwwd hammercy!
I would give a million like if I could
Best performance of this Song ever!!
🥰 love in sound 💋

Actually this is the soundtrack to the documentary is that is authorized. That's why her daughter (Lisa Simone) is also on the soundtrack.

Leo Brooks - bass, Michel Ferre - piano
Lauryn made this song become like it is:
*the original version🍃*
The climax of this song is so powerful and intense, I think I might have climaxed myself!
Johnny Mathis owns this song, then Nina Simone. Johnny introduced it in the sixties. remember?
Speecless______
DELICATESSEN....
No. Nina Simone only.
She's not supposed to sound like Nina... She is simply paying homage, and what a wonderful job she did.

David Bowie's not bad either, it's more up beat. For a thrill watch the movie. Both are on You tube
