Nina Simone - Take Me To The Water Lyrics

2020 always Nina we need to hear from you..with your pain and honesty ~ I know you had your moments of joy, sending love up to the universe!!

Great!!!!!!!!!

So beautiful and Lord what a spirit in her. Loved this.

I may be a white guy (raised UN- prejudiced, thank god- BTW) I love this lady to no end, and all black women that I see with an inkling of this woman within. that's all I can & will say.

More love to anyone listening in 2020! Leave a legacy for people!! Love NS!!

Her life is an example of what happens to people when they stand up and oppose the system. But this should not deter you, as more people rise up, the negative consequences of doing so will be mitigated. She is an example of strength, a true Pisces-Aquarius cusper.

When YeYe said “I’m a Pisces (water sign) and I’m on the cusp of an Aquarius (the water bearer of the zodiac, even though it’s an air sign) and so I gotta say take me to the water...” 🙌🏾🌊👑

She was so far ahead of her time!

End of the clip...
“My folks got nothing and they need inspiration 24hrs a day...” 🙌🏾. To whom much is given, much is required...and Nina gave her all.

2020 ❤❤❤

Thank you Nina for leaving us inspiration. We love you always - Your people. 💛

Where are the foundation proceeds going?

Nina isn't an artist ...she is art ❤

Wanting to skip, compelled to watch?

No god no religion no body. Just the spirit

Fierce 😍

She is light and love!!

It always been a battle for us, still is. But now thank you to those who put they carrier inline for us today.

Beautiful soul😊😘😘

♪Lovin' this song of freedom♪. But you know what? Times are so hard, I'll just settle for a "Glass Of Cool Water, Before I'd die"!!!🎶🌎🎵🌍🎶🌏🎵
♪Reminiscent: Ldy. Maya Angelo♪

One of the greatest singers I know, thanks for recording this marvelous person.

​I want to shake people up so bad that when they leave a nightclub where I perform, I want them to be in pieces.
 -Nina Simone

Argh, Nina! What a vibe. What a treat. What a stiff audience😂!

I can't be the only one who SCREAMED PERIOD at the end.

Such feeling in here voice But strange woman - not as nice as you think     Shot a boy with air rifle who was destroying her concentration once.    She may have been bipolar.

She was 33 there.

Rosalia?

Thanks Rosalía 💯

Aquí por Rosalía.

Alguien por el tuit de LA ROSALÍA??

no mogolico

Si aqui

@Jeremías la educacion y el respeto no te lo han enseñado a ti, no?

@M Madrid no

I hope you all learned something...

She is fearless

"....you 18,000 do not need it." (LOL) Nina Simone was definitely anti-PC and a straight shooter.

...and just like that...a kind of instinct came alive... great stuff!! Dosn't hapen every day, u know that, don't you!!..."people needs help, and that's why I'm here"...great Nina!! Really, one of the best things that a human being can whitness, is they atituds, this kind of mentalaty!!...so, for that thanks a lot Great Lady!!

Genia! Es una diosa y nadie como ella! Que afortunados los que la llegaron a ver en vivo! Una joya este video!

Was it Heroin or Kokain whata makes her crazy?

@C Sure, believe it

Qu'elle est belle! je l'adore

7:07 AMÉN!

One thing you can say about her is that she lived her life as a FREE BLACK WOMAN!!!!! now she’s a FREE SPIRIT. RAIN ON MISS SIMONE💕💕💕💕💕

Phenomenal Woman! I love You Empress Nina Simone

Great and she looks great

AMEN🙏

Sweet Jesus 🙏

What an incredible force of human nature from one woman. Her legacy will always be young black and beautiful forever.

i love you my loving love

TRUTH 7:34

She is so original!!!!!

Its amazing to me. That she ONLY became a singer because her first job performing FORCED HER TO SING!!!

This lady had a gift, but seems like she was lost inside.

This is like a prayer to Long forgotten Gods that rise up within and remind you...you are who you were so very long ago!

You go girl! Work it! Flow it!🎵💜🎵

...plenty of white people struggling

Nina gave heartfelt service as a warrior wisdom healer through the muse of music to go to the depths of the soul. Dive deep~ lifting the veil to peel away wounds, deep seated wounds. She knew them well and asked others to Feel Deep w/ her in commune. Her Legacy with Grace of Heart will Always be Endearing to those w/ Empatic Commune to Resonant her Inspiration to Go within and Heal the Trauma of DNA Legacy to no longer carry....So Blessed Nina Simone...a Gem with a Facet that Shines Infinite Touching so many Heart of Hearts! <3 Shine on Warrior Wisdom Eternal~ AHO!

A soul sister and revolutionist , spiritualist, of her time

Love you mother

Can't believe they finally got her in The Hall Off Fame!!!!

Putain c est magnifique.

Ouf. !!!!!!!

2:01 look at facial expression, so sexy

inspiration for Talking Heads "take me to the river"?

I just love her spirit and energy! She is beautiful and unique. But, at 6:45 , what does she mean when she says, "You 18,000... you are not needed!"? And
"You have yours, your money, your parents, and your easy livin."
"My folks got nothin', and they need inspiration 24/7, and that's why I'm here."?
What's she talking about?

Love you Nina Simone you're the best.😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

Beautiful Nina ...unforgettable.. I never tire of her voice.

and no crazy...

Que triste

watta voice
