- I Loves You, Porgy (1959) Ihren ersten großen Erfolg landet Nina Simone mit dem Song I Loves You, Porgy aus George Gershwins Oper Porgy And Bess. Sie bahnt damit nicht nur den Weg für ihren eigenen Erfolg, sondern verhilft auch dem Stück zu großer Popularität.
- My Baby Just Cares For Me (1959) Der Song My Baby Just Cares For Me stammt aus der Filmadaption des Musicals Whoopee! , wo er von Schauspieler Eddie Cantor gesungen wird.
- I Got It Bad And That Ain’t Good (1962) Die Musik für diesen Song komponiert niemand geringeres als Duke Ellington; den Text steuert Paul Francis Webster bei, aus dessen Feder auch die Spider-Man-Titelmusik stammt.
- Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood (1964) Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood ist der erste Song in unserer Liste, der explizit für Nina Simone geschrieben wird, und zwar von Bennie Benjamin, Horace Ott und Sol Marcus.

The album ‘Nuff Said was recorded at the Westbury Music Fair just three days after the assassination of Martin Luther King. The program was dedicated to his memory, and the album captures the shock and the raw emotion that followed his death. On the face of it, I Ain’t Got No / I’ve Got Life, a medley of two songs (Ain’t Got No and I Got Life) from...
As The Guardian writes, Simone’s interpretations of existing songs were so emphatic that other artists would often thieve her version rather than the original performer’s. However, very, very few artists would have the courage to risk covering her own composition, Four Women, so completely does she make it her own. There’s no chorus and the structu...
Feeling Good was written for the musical “The Roar of the Greasepaint – The Smell of the Crowd” in 1964. In the years since, it’s been covered by dozens of artists, including John Legend, Sammy Davis Jr., Traffic, Michael Bublé, John Coltrane, George Michael, Victory, Eels, Joe Bonamassa, Eden, Muse, Black Cat Bones, Bassnectar, Sophie B. Hawkins, ...
I Put a Spell On You was originally recorded by Screamin’ Jay in 1956. Almost a decade later, Simone came along and put her own stamp on it. Hers was a more polished, refined version than Screamin’ Jay’s rowdy original, with a swirling bass and a coating of jazz sheen. Cutting through the fluid, melodious arrangements is Simone’s vocals, as spellbi...
Don’t Let Me Be Misunderstood has been covered numerous times over the years. Many of those covers, including those by The Animals and Joe Cocker, have been excellent. But Simone’s searingly heartfelt interpretation leaves them all coughing on its dust. Redemption might be out of reach for the song’s narrator, but the song was saved the moment Simo...
No one’s quite sure about Sinnerman’s origins. Some claim it started as an African-American spiritual, others say it was a Scottish folk song before anything else. Regardless of how it began life, it found its ultimate expression on Simone’s 1965 album Pastel Blues. It’s since been sampled by Kanye Weston Get By, Timbaland on Oh Timbaland, Hozier o...
It takes skill (and quite a lot of guts) to take on a Leonard Cohen song, especially one as enduringly beloved as Suzanne. In 1969, Simone didn’t just cover the song, she made it her own, restructuring the melody around ascending piano chords to lend each line an almost unbearable urgency. The result,as ew.com says, is a total tear-down on Cohen’s ...
My Baby Just Cares For Me was originally written by Walter Donaldson and Gus Kahn for the 1930 film version of the hit musical “Whoopee!” It was first recorded by Eddie Cantour, who turned it into his signature song. Three decades later, Simone came along and stole Cantour’s thunder with her own blistering take. First released on her debut album, L...
As Farout Magazine notes,Mississippi Goddam marks Simone’s direct involvement with the Civil Rights Movement. Composed by Simone in tribute to civil rights activist Medgar Evans, who was murdered by the Ku Klux Klan in 1963, its release the following year captured the tide of emotion that followed both Evans’ death and those of the four children ki...
Simone recorded I Loves You Porgy on the suggestion of a friend, who’d heard Billie Holiday’s version and thought it would be a good addition to Simone’s debut album, Little Girl Blue. The song began picking up airplay almost immediately, launching Simone into the Top 20 in 1959. Predictably, comparisons with Billie Holiday were made – comparisons ...
