Nina would have been 81 years old today!

Here is "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" by Nina Simone in 1968.

Many people think that The Animals were the first to record this tune; however, it was specifically written for Nina by Bennie Benjamin, Gloria Caldwell, and Sol Marcus. She recorded it in 1964 and The Animals covered the following year, 1965.

Just a little Nina Simone factoid for you all on her 81st birthday!
