In 1955, Doris Day starred in a biographical movie about Etting called "Love Me or Leave Me" & her updated rendition became a giant hit. Flash forward to 1967... Nina Simone turned this hokey old Ziegfeld tune into a completely reworked masterpiece of piano & voice (download link is at bottom). My own version (heard best live, I think) is definitely inspired by Nina's, but it could never compare to hers -- I just do my own thing & try to make it my own a bit. It's a fun song to do... audiences seem to love it. Incredible basswork once again provided by bass God Chris Conner. ]]> http://music.metafilter.com/778/Love-Me-or-Leave-Me-bassvocal tag:music.metafilter.com/playlist,2009:site.778 Sat, 20 Jan 2007 10:24:38 -0800 chococat. Like pretty much everyone else who heard his music, I was blown away. And so I asked him if he would help me out with the song. Cool guy he is, he did. And this is the result. ]]> http://music.metafilter.com/620/I-Shine tag:music.metafilter.com/playlist,2009:site.620 Mon, 23 Oct 2006 11:42:50 -0800 http://music.metafilter.com/287/Olivia tag:music.metafilter.com/playlist,2009:site.287 Mon, 10 Jul 2006 21:33:36 -0800 http://music.metafilter.com/338/Last-One tag:music.metafilter.com/playlist,2009:site.338 Sun, 16 Jul 2006 00:06:07 -0800 http://music.metafilter.com/183/Toronto tag:music.metafilter.com/playlist,2009:site.183 Mon, 03 Jul 2006 17:47:31 -0800 http://music.metafilter.com/401/In-the-Aeroplane-Over-the-Sea tag:music.metafilter.com/playlist,2009:site.401 Wed, 26 Jul 2006 22:42:45 -0800 http://music.metafilter.com/53/Light-On tag:music.metafilter.com/playlist,2009:site.53 Fri, 30 Jun 2006 19:46:53 -0800 http://music.metafilter.com/201/Summers-Ending tag:music.metafilter.com/playlist,2009:site.201 Tue, 04 Jul 2006 15:04:19 -0800
