Nina Simone - Suzanne (Rome 1969)

Hello World,

Nina Simone, "Susanne" (Rome 1969) is now my all-time favorite video! Just searched for Nina Simone "Suzanne" for fun on YouTube, and your dj must have died and gone to Heaven. You must watch this exceptional never-been-seen-before footage (by me).

Especially sweet as am writing this and sharing today's "In-Box Jewel," one of my personal favorites who i had the opportunity to see live in L.A. at the beach with his entire band. He is magical, but we did not give him quite the response he got here, but we did our best hehehe

From Songbird, Eska:

"This one is especially for all you Zimbos out there. I am not a confident Shona speaker let alone writer…Kutaura chiShona kunonetsa stereki??…but I delighted in saying the most ridiculous things to my Mbuya (grandmother) when she was alive. Irony does not really exist in the Shona language so you can only imagine my English sense of humour translated into ridiculous/surreal shonglish…often resulting in her laughing hysterically…which made me so warm inside. My opening lyric, ‘Tino famba tese’ is translated, ‘We can walk together’. And on that note…Pamberi ne Zimbabwe!"
