5. Don't Let Be Misunderstood

My fave has a killer Bach infused piano solo and is expressing how someone can make such an impact that there's no room left to love anyone else.
Someone said a song was in their top 20, that's all I needed to have this little musical diversion, one of my best cyber friends who was in a band in the 70s got me into Nina, and how Lynch ended Inland Empire just confirmed her excellence in my mind, she was also watched by me and my folks on something like 60 Minutes and I think they understood her importance, a fantastic soul-ful genius she was, and oh there's a sweet moment at the end of Richard Linklater's Before Sunset with a Nina Simone record playing when Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy are having a scene together.
