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 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/183/Toronto tag:music.metafilter.com/playlist,2009:site.183 Mon, 03 Jul 2006 17:47:31 -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/436/Like-Sun tag:music.metafilter.com/playlist,2009:site.436 Wed, 02 Aug 2006 19:24:29 -0800 Micayetoca in Venezuela. ]]> http://music.metafilter.com/902/Miss-Me-in-the-Morning tag:music.metafilter.com/playlist,2009:site.902 Fri, 23 Feb 2007 14:28:29 -0800 http://music.metafilter.com/927/Room-at-the-End-of-the-Hall tag:music.metafilter.com/playlist,2009:site.927 Thu, 01 Mar 2007 00:25:12 -0800 http://music.metafilter.com/254/In-the-Rain tag:music.metafilter.com/playlist,2009:site.254 Fri, 07 Jul 2006 14:16:54 -0800
