Sometimes when you've had a rotten day or had things not work out for you a song can come by and just lift you up by empowering, invigorating and energizing your being. And, so, with the news that we'll be seeing a lot more of the white fluffy stuff we could all use a little uplifting. So, take a good dose of Nina Simone's amazing voice and a fantastic video and you've got yourself medicine to shake those winter blues out of you, baby. Stop by the comment section and drop us a line on what song(s) you listen to to shake off those negative vibes.

I'm about to release a project paying tribute to Nina Simone and I've put together a Trailer/Sampler for the project in the format of a Youtube video. Help me continue Nina Simones legacy and support this project by posting the trailer on your blog.
It's called "In Search of her Soul: A tribute to Nina Simone"
Here's the link...
Thanks In Advance

I think Mary J Blige has the look but you're right Alicia Keys has the voice. Good idea. I'm just glad that no one thought of Beyonce Knowles...she can sing but I wouldn't want to see her as Nina Simone. She's got too much of a Pop vibe to her. :P
and "st. andrews" by bedouin soundclash is fun and relaxing.
