Ben E King - Spanish Harlem





For my post on Nietzsche, I chose the song "Spanish Harlem" by Ben E. King. The reason for my choice is that I was considering Nietzsche's evolution in thought from the love of Wagner's somber, "morbid" style to Bizet's, light, decadent, cheerful music that does not provoke the sickness of human life. "Spanish Harlem" embodies the wonderful spirited nature that Bizet's "Carmen" does.
