Biography

American singer, songwriter, pianist, composer, arranger and civil rights activist, born 21 February 1933 in Tryon, North Carolina, USA, died 21 April 2003 in Carry-le-Rouet, Bouches-du-Rhône, France (aged 70) Nina was giving piano recitals after playing at her local church at an early age. Her childhood piano lessons were funded by her mother's employer and a local fund set up by her music teacher, so impressed were they by her talent. She moved to Philadelphia aged 17, teaching piano and playing to raise the money for her studies at New York's renowned Juilliard School Of Music. To fund her family she worked in a bar in Atlantic City where she was also required to sing and built up a devoted following. She recorded Gershwin's "I Loves You Porgy" which became a US Top 20 hit and transported her to a bigger stage, performing at [l280434] and the [l318621]. Her repertoire went on to embrace numerous civil rights anthems, a movement for which she was a passionate and prominent supporter. She left the US in the 1970s, moving first to Barbados, and some other places, including Africa and the Netherlands, before eventually settling in France where she died from cancer in 2003. She won a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2017 and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2018. Mother of [a1559889].

LYRICS

Paroles de la chanson Here Comes the Sun par Nina Simone
Here comes the sun, little darlin'
Here comes the sun, I say
It's alright, it's alright
Here comes the sun, little darlin'
Here comes the sun, I say
It's alright, it's alright
Little darlin', it's been a long cold and lonely winter
Little darlin', it feels like years since you've been here
Here comes the sun, little darlin'
Here comes the sun, I say
It's alright, it's alright

Little darlin', the smiles have returned to the faces now
Little darlin', it seems like years since you've been here
Little darlin', it's been a long cold lonely winter
Little darlin', it feels like years since you've been here
Here somes the sun, aren't you glad to see it?
I say, it's alright
Here comes the sun, little darlin'
I say, it's alright
Here comes the sun
Here comes the sun, I say
Little darlin', it seems like years since you've been here
Little darlin', here comes the sun, it's alright
You can come on out
