[Goodbye]

Billie and Nina...
Good that you lot are talkin about REAL music for a change...
Nina made the Bee Gee's cool... Billie... well, don't get me started with Billie... Amazing woman... That Carnagie hall concert album with that guy reading from Lady Sings The Blues between songs, and the Lady in Satin albums are going in the coffin with me...

Billie and Nina...

yeah, Billie Piper's cool. And Nina Hynes has some nice songs too. i agree with Ian, we should totally stay on the subject of REAL music.

when I was a child I used always get confused between Buddy Holly and Billie Holiday

big difference but Buddy has better tunes

 

[SadieOutlaw]

when i was little i thought nina and billie were men. nina because of the voice and billie because her name is billie. i thought my dad was playing tricks when he tried to correct me. what a trickster that fella, but not about those ladies.

Been listening to Nina Simone non-stop for the last couple of hours. It's made me forget the cold and the rain, and the fact that I've been stuck in all day waiting for delivery guys. The memories!

She can do that!

funkier than a mosquitos tweeter

One of my favourite ever songs

 

[spookeeeye]

Her Bob Dylan covers are better than the originals.

 

[Deleted member 3435]

I'm digging her covers lately, Times They Are A-Chaning, Suzanne and Here Comes the Sun.... total genius.

her version of "I loves you porgy" is good, even great... but "my baby just cares for me" can't be beat.

Just listened to this with the volume way up. Amazing

Cancelling netflix soon but definitely giving this a whirl before I do.

 

[dunderhead]

good plan. first thing i've watched on it for months since house of cards 3. gonna do the same

 

[hermie]

Only thing I was really watching on it was The Shield and they pulled that without warning seemingly over the last few days. Also increasingly find your connection needs to be good or else it gets pretty jumpy.

I saw her live. She was amazing.
