Nina Simone: Ain’t Got No…I Got Life (Groovefinder remix)
…there’s definitely still lots of things that we’re lucky to have. I’m starting to get a little tired of the unprecidented amount of loss going on around me; jobs, families, happiness, homes, forests, husbands, wives, health, deposits, Kodachrome, ugh, enough already! In the last couple weeks alone I was served with an official layoff notice and a last-minute (and temporary, I repeat, oh-so-temporary…) move back home to weather the storm until I find my footing. Folks, I’m just gonna say it; the world kinda sucks right now. FOR EVERYONE. And before it starts to get depressing I offer you this song and photo for inspiration. After all, you may not have a job but for crap’s sake, you got your boobies. End of story.
One of my favorite Nina Simone songs!
On Youtube, there’s a great video of her singing that song in front of a fantastic 1970s NY crowd.
Ha! I totally linked to that video in the post (click on “Nina Simone” in the song title to take you there). Yeah, its a great vid! (I totally covet her hair and earrings there…)
You said it! man, I’m glad I got my boobies.
I tell you what I do got: you and Mrs. Z and rigmor and the color orange and everything else.
That, my friend, is the recipe to happiness. Cheers to that!
