Nina Simone - “Gimme Some” (Mike Mangini remix)
Even if you’re not jazz fan, you probably know songstress Nina Simone from her song “Feeling Good,” which was featured in the plentiful promos for the 4th season of HBO’s “Six Feet Under.” Her original recording of “Gimme Some” is very much in the same vein, slow and jazzy, but you’d never know it from this remix. Mike Mangini masterminds a total transformation of the music and background vocals to turn it into a modern toe-tapping tune.
Maybe I’ll get around to posting my own song later today. But, I listened to this song this morning and really, really liked it!
