I was so fortunate to see this performed live. I've seen many concerts in my life and none had ever brought me to tears until this performance. This video just can't convey the power that being there provided. There are no words to express how much it moved me. Simply amazing!
I can feel it just seeing the video. When she performed feeling good I said to myself "I would have lost my shit" Meaning I would completely lost my mind. Love both queens, Lauryn and Nina.
I so wanted her to portray Nina Simone. I always felt she had the perfect contralto, style, and beauty to do it justice. This only convinced me more. No one else has the guts to sing Nina's songs. That band is the Bizness!
Where in our Black Music industry is there anyone who can execute and deliver and gage and reach and touch and move and inspire and captivate and liverate and motivate and intoxicate and celebrate and exonerate and resonate with any audience like The Queen 👸🏽 Ms Lauryn Hill can. Hail to The Queen 👑✨✌🏾🤞🏾☝🏾💖✊🏿✨🙏🏿✨🇿🇦
"Black Is The Color of My True Love's Hair" this song always make me think of my husband. However, his black hair is now turning gray and I love him still....
I love her, but in fact her French diction and pronunciation are far from perfect. She's singing it almost as though she doesn't understand what lyrics mean: "Don't leave me . . . I'll do anything to make you stay . . . I'll be the shadow of your shadow, the shadow of your hand, the shadow of your dog." The way she tosses off the lyrics you would have no idea of the desperation these lyrics capture.
@@VideofyAudiofy How do you arrive at your conclusion? Lyrics are subject to intrepretation by the artist! Therefore, the way she sang was her interpretation of the lyrics and no one should try to pigeonhole her into how she should interpret music! To do so is tantamount to censure!!💯
"So while you imitating Al Capone, I'll be Nina Simone and defecating on your microphone"... Lauryn Hill stepping away from making music is one of the tragedies of my generation...
She had great producers on the miseducation of Lauryn Hill! They must have told her not to shake her voice that much, because before and after the album she sounds so shaky.
she didn‘t shake before, her voice was very good before the miseducation. maybe she didn‘t practise much in the recent years. also her voice sounds damaged. even in 2005 her performances on block party were nice. or check sister act or when she sang in as the world turns, no shaking
Jacques Brel doit se retourner dans sa tombe, le pauvre. Mais quel massacre et quel manque de reconnaissance, vu que ce n'est pas de Nina Simone 😱 Dommage, j'aime bien Lauryn
pas terrible ....sans les retours avec les paroles ....... ca merde tout le debut ......faut être sourd pour aimer la première partie sans emotion a part son stress des retours qui ne fonctionnent pas! pourtant chui fan
One of greatest black women to ever live💯 she seen all the evil in the music industry first hand and wouldn’t let it consume her 👑🖤
One of the greatest women to ever live... ! FFS!
I do hold other women singers above Lauryn, but not many of them has the same timing!
Spilled
Whitney was way better.
You are speaking of Nina Simone, correct? If so, I agree completely!

I just can’t even imagine being there for this. My god. Just no words. So fortunate to see one of the best honor the greatest.
I would have passed out seeing this live.
I so wanted her to portray Nina Simone. I always felt she had the perfect contralto, style, and beauty to do it justice. This only convinced me more. No one else has the guts to sing Nina's songs. That band is the Bizness!
And she has the acting ability. Best when you feel it and know the person you are portraying.
She is perfect for the role but nooooo they got an actress that didn’t do Nina justice at all…
There is a whole album of nina simone feat laurwn hill. Its great
Lauryn's voice is unmistakable. So glad she was there for Nina. 💖💖💖💖💖
It’s perfect ❤Lauren knows the horror of the music industry but showed up for this

Yes she did did great with the diction! Her diction isn’t the problem. She sounds out of breath.

Perfect french diction 😅 non mais absolument magnifique artiste ❤
I'm wondering if these 'critics' realize that Lauren Hill speaks French!! Don't be fooled by her last name!!💯
It's wonderful seeing Lauren Hill.
It's Lauryn you fool, how many time are people gonna learn to spell shit right smh 🤦♂️
Ms. Simone is pleased♥️🖤💚
Totally!
Yes this was beautiful 🔥🔥
Jacques Brel
DAMN. Lauren came outta hibernation, ARRIVED ON TIME, and TORE this performance up!!!
Black folk- we are blessed to have the greatest artists! 😍😍😍
So true!!! I wish the same to her!
Mon artiste préférée, qui interprète une de mes chansons préférées...

This is amazing!
Fantastic musician

I love this song 🤗🤗🤗🤗🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Musical spirits is real she is just the voice Roy
Wyclef Jean also did 'Ne Me Quitte Pas'.
"So while you imitating Al Capone, I'll be Nina Simone and defecating on your microphone"... Lauryn Hill stepping away from making music is one of the tragedies of my generation...
No lies told
I truly believed she was silenced.
😂😂👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Aye! I remember that part. You tied it together and brought back memories. That’s a good one 👍🏾
I think she's still recording privately. The archives!
Nothing short of amazing
Loved it all. Beautiful 🥰🧸
Anglais ou français, dans tout les cas c'est incroyable
Elle a ca dans le sang
I love this woman
Spettacolare!!!!!💓

Wow! Lauryn took it to the level of Nina
Wow ❤
You guys are horrible in the comments disrespecting the legend of Lauryn Hill and Nina Simone!
all these years later and people can’t still spell L A U R Y N 🤷🏾♂️
🙊 it bothers me, too
Lol
Ms Hill qui chante en français 😍😍😍
'Français'?
@@kiereluurs1243 oui
My all-time C R U.S.H 🔥
Soul soldier
excellent
LOVE
she was having technical issues with her in-ear monitor, but she's such a skilled professional that she pulled through on the performance
Don't worry Lauryn, I know your truth, I see your pain.
Wow il faut qu'elle cette chanson avec clef
Lemme Keep De Pie 🎶🎵🎵🎶😩🤣🤣
Jk, I love this lady and the French language.
❤😂
She killed a very tough song to master. Just ask Sting and other legends before her.
✝️
Beginning was rushed hurried anxious soulless.
Black is the color of my true loves hair was pleasing.
Show.
ZUNNMM.COMO CANTA E E LINDÍSSIMA ESSA MORENA . DESCULPEM AS BRANQUINHAS MAS LAURIN E LINDA.
After Nina this is Le GOAT. You can’t please everybody queen. They’ll always be racists out there. Check the comments
Lauryn looks like she's having trouble singing because her ear monitors make it difficult to hear......
But I'm happy to hear her singing voice.
The original version of this song is by Jacques Brel, not Nina Simone.
About time someone post it ,I was about to post this same message.
Ok some hoe we don’t know 🤣
Yes, we know, lol.
😍😍😍😍
(( 😎 )) 🌹🌹🌹 ( 👊🏾 )
🦸🏿♀️🦸🏿♀️🦸🏿♀️
Nina Simone's song? ehm ever heard of an artist called Jacques Brel. Simone covered it. just like Lauryn Hill did here. its not their song though
I like Hill, and she's a capable singern. But this didn't do much for me. Sure as hell wasn't Nina.
She looks so stressed and under pressure
She keeps messing w her ear piece
Meh. I love her but this wasn’t the one
Breathing problems?
She had great producers on the miseducation of Lauryn Hill! They must have told her not to shake her voice that much, because before and after the album she sounds so shaky.
she didn‘t shake before, her voice was very good before the miseducation. maybe she didn‘t practise much in the recent years. also her voice sounds damaged. even in 2005 her performances on block party were nice.
or check sister act or when she sang in as the world turns, no shaking
@ Taka Tukata
It's called timbre in music! Not everyone is able to do that! Let's celebrate her; not denigrate, please!!💯
@@p.w.7493 im not denigrating her, just stating my observations. its obvious that her voice suffered some kind of damage
Plz have several seats generation of auto-tune
She talked about the pressure of always being in perfect voice. Its a lot of work on top of what all she had going on.
Jacques Brel doit se retourner dans sa tombe, le pauvre.
Mais quel massacre et quel manque de reconnaissance, vu que ce n'est pas de Nina Simone 😱
Dommage, j'aime bien Lauryn
Have Mercy 🩶.
pas terrible ....sans les retours avec les paroles ....... ca merde tout le debut ......faut être sourd pour aimer la première partie sans emotion a part son stress des retours qui ne fonctionnent pas!
pourtant chui fan
Pareil, j ' suis fan mais là "ne me quitte pas" complétement massacrée. Dommage, elle peut faire bcp mieux.
Il y a la version de wyclef jean
Feels really rushed. Something is off in this performance
SHe always sings like she's on stimulants, rushing the words and the phrasing, there's no time taken to express anything musically.
Constantly messing with her ear is distracting. Didn’t think much of the vocals either.
Please do not sing ever agai n.
Terrible.
Please don't try to sing something you don't even understand.
Elle est finie
If I wanted to just hear someone mumble I would have just watched cnn... like seriously what happened to her?
Worst version ever
she looks uncomfortable with French
Is she on drugs
I think so
@Antoinette Hunter yep
No she’s HER
She seems to be having breathing problems here.
With that name you should know
