Eva Cassidy und Katie Melua im Duett einfach unsagbar emotional. Diese wunderbaren Stimmen sind einfach göttlich. Es ist so traurig, dass Eva so jung sterben musste. ❤
The day my daddy passed I went outside the hospital talking to relatives "way up above the hospital several stories high was a beautiful. 🌈. Rainbow... I was at peace at the point on. I'm sorry for your loss..
I first heard her on a very late night news type of tv program and I instantly knew that the goosebumps signaled how amazing her voice was. So special !
My, what we lost and we didn't even know it at the time! I grew up waiting for that one day a year "The Wizard of Oz" would be on TV. Judy Garland has always been my favorite female singer (Sinatra - male), and "Over The Rainbow" is downright sacred to me. I have never liked anyone but Judy singing it . . . until Eva. Her unique rendition and the emotion behind it is breathtaking, as are her gorgeous yet understated vocals. Knowing she was only months away from leaving us when she was recorded singing it only amplifies the emotions it elicits.
I miss my childhood. My former home, my former classmates, my old school. I miss the time when my parents were young, and the time I played all day long with a carefree mind. I grew up in the farmlands, among the fields of barley and wheat… the fields of gold…
im 36 yrs old and how tf have i never heard of eva cassidy before ???? omgggggggg!!!!!! truly felt that music reverberate and pull on my heart strings !!!! a grown ass man crying !!!! and here starts my hunt building my knowledge on this woman with an otherwordly angelic voice !!!!!
Oh my, i can't listen to this one, i try but just can't get through it. In time i'll try again but not today. Eva, Since you went away the days grow long And soon I'll hear old winter's song But I miss you most of all my darling When autumn leaves start to fall
I say this time I'm not, no, I'm not going to cry... but there's this room inside with ache and sadness no matter how hard I try, Eva surrounds the room with such an embrace that I melt, It's like tender touches to my scars which ease their stiffness. I can breathe a little deeper. I may be 70, but not too old to believe in magic
My friend and band mate Noksang introduced me to Eva Cassidy back in the year 2008. And the first track i listened to was Fields of Gold. And i truly fell in love with her voice. Sadly my friend passed away in the year 2020 due to covid. Thank you brother Noksang for introducing me to Eva Cassidy. Love from Dimapur, Nagaland (India)
Autumn Leaves is one of those old standards that people like Sinatra, Etta, Billy Holiday would perform. In other words it’s one of the greatest songs ever written. I’m a rock musician who is also a huge Sinatra fan; and it was Frank who made me fall in love with this song. I didn’t think any other rendition could possibly be more stirring or heartbreaking as his. I was wrong. The orchestral version of Eva singing this song was my introduction to her voice and her story. I can’t listen to either of her recordings without feeling a deep ache in my heart over a long lost love. I wish I could tell her what a blessing her music has been in my life.
I was priveleged enough to see Eva live in 1990 or 1991 ( sorry can't remember the exact year). I was on leave from the Army visiting friends in the D.C. Area, and they asked if I would like to go see "This amazing singer at a local club". It turned out to be Eva, and her voice and music changed my life forever. A few years later when I got married I insisted that our first dance as husband and wife be to this song. It still gives me chills to hear her sing this after all these years. God rest your soul Eva.
