Nina Simone Feeling Good Midi File 【Top 20 TOP-RATED】

Leo looked back at his speakers. The woman’s voice was reaching the final verse now. “It’s a new dawn, it’s a new day, it’s a new life… for me.” But the word “me” stretched out, wobbled, and turned into a question. Not for me . For me? As if she was asking permission. As if E.S., lost over the cold Atlantic, was using the bones of Nina Simone’s defiant joy to send a message from the static between life and death.

Then, the voice.

He googled. Nothing. Then he searched archived Usenet groups: alt.music.nina-simone . A single thread from March 1999, title: “MIDI file of Feeling Good—is this real?” nina simone feeling good midi file

Leo checked the file’s metadata. Creation date: February 25, 1999. Location stamp: a set of GPS coordinates that dropped a pin in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. And a single user name: E.S. Leo looked back at his speakers

  1. In search of peace

    Our hands bend iron for sickles,
    but the heart starts to imagine
    our enemies’ necks as grasses

    When I read these lines
    I thought what an image!
    They were enough for me
    to reach for my Visa card.
    I also loved watching him
    performing live. The first
    poem he read about
    wanting to be a river to
    emigrate but still be at home
    was marvellous.
    Thanks for the introduction Peter.

  5. Thank you so much for posting this. I enjoyed Beweketu’s poetry even more than his novels through the years. I also hope his previous poetry works would be translated into english to reach a larger audience.
