Great blend of Jazz ,Gospel and Blues. Is there anybody doing anything like this today? It's a tragedy that Eva died so young when there was so much more that she could have achieved, so much more that we would have had the privilege of listening to.
@@kevingrady8736 I've listened to a number of Angelina' songs, but mostly earlier ones. She's a remarkable singer. I do need to listen to more of her latest songs to see how she has matured but Covid stopped so much music. Still, thanks for your suggestion.
@polish issues Not sure why your dying, but watch this x Scientific proof of jesus's advice x ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-t1b08X-GvRs.html
Don't think for two seconds her work will not be followed and others on that same path, influenced by her style, since it's on the same. Music and art like this doesn't die with the artist, it lives on through others!!! God Keep Her Safe In His Arms!!!
She was absolutely amazing and God gave her the most beautiful voice and her beautiful voice runs deep into my soul🕊 R.I.P. Beautiful Eva🙏🏽🕊♥️🌹♥️ Thank you for sharing this beautiful video and God Bless 🙏🏽
As I journey on the path that Eva traveled before she died of cancer, I am uplifted and comforted by her music. I silently ask God, when can I go home? And through my tears, God tells me to persevere for another day.
This song never fails to make me cry for two reasons. The first is I know what the song is about and the second our dog had cancer with seizures and wouldnt eat or drink but if I sang this song hed drink water (he was only this way briefly prior to his passing).
I heard this song at school. In those days when it was allowed to praise God in school. I also remember the Bible meetings. I think humanity has forgotten that there is a God.
I played this to my daughter everyday whilst she was in the womb, and when she was a baby if ever she cried I only had to start singing it and she would immediately stop crying. I have just played it to her now she is fifteen and she has no memory of it! It was very useful though, especially on car journeys.

Just gonna leave the lyrics here: Wade in the water Wade in the water Children wade, in the water God's gonna trouble the water Who's that young girl dressed in red Wade in the water Must be the children that Moses led God's gonna trouble the water Wade in the water, wade in the water children Wade in the water, God's gonna trouble the water Who's that young girl dressed in white Wade in the water Must be the children of the Israelite Oh, God's gonna trouble the water Wade in the water, wade in the water children Wade in the water, God's gonna trouble the water Who's that young girl dressed in blue Wade in the water Must be the children that's coming through, God's gonna trouble the water, yeah Wade in the water, wade in the water children Wade in the water, God's gonna trouble the water You don't believe I've been redeemed, Wade in the water Just so the whole lake goes looking for me God's gonna trouble the water Wade in the water, wade in the water children Wade in the water, God's gonna trouble the water
Sorry but that's "yonder" she's singing - not young girl. The idea is that they are looking afar off in the distance. From the original African-American spiritual - the lyrics were referring to the biblical foreshadowing about baptism in Christ, as when God delivered Israel from Egypt out through the RED SEA (that's why they are dressed traditionally in red, blue, then white for redemption). Many do red, white, and blue now to correspond to the US Flag and an adaptation was by the Underground Railroad helping slaves escape from cruel Southern slavery to Northern freedom at that time. I love her voice and the symbolism of what God can do for a nation or just one human soul. Anyways - I though it was cute to say "young girl" though the grammar suffers a little - there's a little lady I know that I could sing this to that way! Blessings!

I love you EVA... if ever there was someone I would have loved to sing with it was you... so will have to be heaven... you are simply the best... the best the best...
I was in a store in Manchester years ago and one of Eva's songs was playing on the Tannoy, I just had to know who it was and bought the songbird CD then and there, what a voice 😎
Apparently the handlers of her legacy don't want it to continue, since they constantly block any kind of sharing by people who can share her music with the next generation... they don't understand what this is doing - the only people who will listen will be the old people (like me) who are familiar with and love her beautiful music. So sad and so short-sighted. (Leland Sklar did a lovely introduction to Eva's music on his RU-vid page which was immediately blocked.... ) To the people who manage her estate and legacy - please rethink what you are doing by cheapening her music with your "Merchbar" (whatever that is.)
Eva had a beautiful voice! He left a good musical legacy without a doubt! His good guitar chords and the musical instruments that accompany his songs are simple and complex. Your musics are beautiful. I have her music as a reference to calibrate the position of my speakers.
It is easy to understand why those disliked her music . It is hatred and jealousy. Callous little minds who does not see what is good, do not like what is good , and goodness shall never come to their lives.
As for you Acoustic blah blah blah. Mr personal style. You don't know zero (0) about song and music. You would not recognize personal style if it was spelt out on a bill board in TIMES SQUARE . You will not even have or know your own personal style. That is how squeezed your mind is. Your inability to see the abundantly flowing exquisite methodology of the great Eva Cassidy demonstrates your wanna be self. Aside from Eva's excellent vocal chords, the supporting acoustic rhythm and solo guitar playing, amongst other instruments, places this song on a height only the best ever achieve.
So everyone should just like exactly the same music them? TBH it reeks of insecurity that you are so bothered about what other people think, especially in a subjective field like music where it is literally all about opinion. You need to re-evaluate your life if people not having the same tastes in art gets to you so much.
this is my granddaughters song and i have played and sang it to here since she was a baby ..she is not almost 3..i ill make it a point to walk thru fields of gold with her..she will always remember
God didn't need her to sing for Him...that is what HIS angels do! Satan likes to spread propaganda like this and it's straight from the pit of hell...DON'T listen to that non-sense!
...that would be the god of this world...satan...by-the-way...the 'l' in world stands for...lies...take the lies out of the world and we have the Word...Jesus Christ!!!
Hello Friends. GOD is Love, it's Music and Music is Soul... Believe me, I can't exist without music, songs. My heart beats deeply when I hear and feel every great voice and melodies. I recognize that when a great artist comes from heaven, she or he will return because this is/was her mission on Earth, like all of us good people. We have a reason to live: "To love each other" and MUSIC creates miracles! Thank you Enlightened and Wonderful Eva Cassidy!! PEACE, LOVE, COURAGE FOR ALL! ||| Olá Amigos. DEUS é Amor, é Música e Música é Alma... acreditem em mim, eu não posso existir sem música, canções. O meu coração bate profundamente quando ouço e sinto cada grande voz e melodias. Reconheço que quando um grande artista vem do céu, ela ou ele voltará pois essa é/foi a sua missão na Terra, como todos nós, pessoas boas. Temos uma razão para viver: "Para nos amarmos" e a MÚSICA cria milagres! Obrigado Iluminada e Maravilhosa Eva Cassidy!! PAZ, AMOR, CORAGEM PARA TODOS!
I love this jazz-folk rendition of wade in the water! I was skeptical at first, because she's singing from the American Slave Songbook. But it's a beautiful arrangement.
Almost too good to be the best comment I've read on this totally divine song from Eva Cassidy. She's so in heaven helping lost souls redeem themselves by listening to her sing this song and endorsing others who are hearing her for the first time. I have just heard this song for the first time at a music show here in Invercargill, New Zealand 5/08/16 9.00pm. The gal who sang it blew my mind and the backing band accompanied her to perfection with a raunchy pumping bass line...as soon as my wife and I returned home I hit RU-vid to find the song and well the rest is history...best wishes to youToxi Com :-) Leighton (New Zealand)
@@rottierumbles9451 - There is a mess up via the info under this video. The album is Songbird and the song arrangement that Christine did was for the song Songbird. They did not type the song name ‘Wade in the Water’ in the description info area - the song ‘Songbird’ is typed there.
It doesnt matter, no one owns it. Eva was one of the most beautiful spirits on the planet until cancer took her. Listen to the spirit. Harriet Tubman would have liked her version.
