I have been a huge Nina Simone fan since the 1980's, discovered her doing a live version of House Of the Rising Sun last year, not only the best version of the song I've ever heard, singing it from a womans point of view who had to work in the brothel adds a whole level of desperation that a male version doesnt have, but its easily one of her best songs as well
