#publicdomain lyrics (to die for:)
⭐︎ ⭐︎ ⭐︎ 
Ain't doin' bad doin' nothin',
Just settin' round all day.
I'm tellin' you the less I do,
The more things come my way.

When I get up in the mornin',
Thinkin' o' the day ahead
Makes me so downright weary,
I go right back to my bed!

Why should I ever worry?
It's such a losin' game!
Why should I move when I can prove
I get there just the same?

Ain't doin' bad doin' nothin',
Somehow it seems to pay!
Ain't doin' bad doin' nothin',
Just settin' round all day.

Why should you ever worry?
It's such a losin' game!
Why should you move when you can prove
You get there just the same?

Folks look at me and say, "Be something!
How much more would it take?".
Ain't doin' bad doin' nothin',
Just settin' round all day,
Just settin' and rockin' all day!

[fade to end] [end]
[Public domain lyrics]

'S wonderful! 'S marvelous!
That she should care for me!
'S awful nice! 'S paradise!
'S what I love to see!

She's made my life so glamorous
You can't blame me for feeling amorous
Oh! 'S wonderful! 'S marvelous!
That you should care for me!

Vocalist Kellylee Evans continues to evolve her distinctive sound with her newest release Nina. This Juno and Gemini Award nominee received accolades for her first two albums, Fight or Flight and The Good Girl, which seamlessly fuse jazz and her own unique style of "soul pop". Nina, her new release, is a beautiful tribute to one of jazz's greatest vocalists and pianists, Nina Simone.

The Canadian singer was approached by French label Plus Loin Music, who had discovered her through her 2nd place win at the Thelonious Monk Jazz Vocals Competition. After several years of discussion, they invited her to France in November of 2009, where she spent two days in the studio. "They said I could do whatever I wanted as long as it was standards" Evans recalls. "I had always wanted to do a Nina Simone tribute. She was one of my mom's favourites, and my husband's, and I love her too. So I chose her and they were really gung ho."

Evans' love and respect for the original recordings of the music shines through, but, even in taking on some of Simone's most iconic repertoire, the twelve tracks on the album showcase Kelly's own versatility, creativity and innate musicality. She is reunited with guitarist Marvin Sewell (Jason Moran, Cassandra Wilson), who appeared on her first album, and joined by bassist François Moutin (Moutin Reunion Quartet, Rudresh Mahanthappa), and drummer André Ceccarelli (Dee Dee Bridgewater, Biréli Lagrène).
