I was just listening to Nina Simone and I just sorta stumbled onto this thread.

At any rate, I was listening to Nobody Knows When You're Down and Out off her The Definitive Collection album and I just thought that this song really sums up the way I feel right now.
Something about it just puts me at ease with everything. I don't feel hungry (even though it's been at least two hours since I last ate).
Anyhow the albums I have of hers are:
The Blues
Silk & Soul
Little Girl Blue
How it feels to Be Free
Anthology

and Forbidden Fruit

My favorite by her is Turn Me On, and it porbably has nothign to do wth the lyrics or the instrumentals as much as it does the title.
