The video showcases Nina Simone's soul-stirring performance of "I Wish I Knew How It Would Feel To Be Free" at the Montreux Jazz Festival in 1976.  Her powerful vocals, emotive piano playing, and commanding stage presence captivate the audience, leaving a lasting impression of her immense talent and unwavering advocacy for freedom and equality.    Lyrics:  I wish I knew how | It would feel to be free | I wish I could break | All the chains holding me | I wish I could say | All the things that I should to say | Say 'em loud say 'em clear | For the whole round world to hear | I wish I could share | All the love that's in my heart | Remove all the bars | That keep us apart | I wish you could know | What it means to be me | Then you'd see and agree | Everyone should be free | I wish I could give | All I'm longin' to give | I wish I could live | Like I'm longin' to live | I wish I could do | All the things that I can do | Though I'm way overdue | I'd be starting anew. | I wish I could be like a bird in the sky | How sweet it would be | If I found out I could fly | I'd soar to the sun | And look down at the sea | And I sing 'cause I know | I already know | how it feels to be free.    Nina Simone (1933 - 2003) was an American singer, songwriter, pianist, and civil rights activist.  Her music spanned styles including classical, folk, gospel, blues, jazz, R&B, and pop.
