    Eva had gigantic stage presence when she performed. What are they talking about? Her voice and guitar eclipsed dancing and jumping around. Her performances brought people to tears but apparently no stage presence hahahahaha! Keep the drawl a coming ladies X

    I grew up in the county next to Eva's, I never got to see her perform and only learned of her too late when she was ill. She was something else, the likes that don't come around in our lives very often. You're lucky if someone like that does enter your life. I've had the honor of meeting some of her band mates and they are the best people. We were robbed of so much more beautiful music. Her voice makes your skin tingle, she could do it all. Best all around female vocalist I've ever heard

    I'm from the Maryland suburbs. Eva was well known in the area for her incredible voice.

    Eva was made famous in the UK by a disc jocky and tv presenter named Terry Wogan who had heard a recording of her from his friend.Terry has since passed away.A fine Irish man.

      ... that would be the Terry Wogan in the video then?

    • @gregphillips24
      @gregphillips24 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thats right.putting aside your sarcasm.Terry worked for the BBC for over 30 years.He told his listeners what he was going to do and he did it.Terry was really loved here in the UK.He came from Limerick in Ireland.He got an honourary Knighthood as he was Irish and not entitled to a full honour.We here in the UK knew all about what he was trying to do for Eva long before the programme you watched yesterday.So put your sarcasm away.@@thegroovetube3247

    Her version of Autumn Leaves although not quite as famous as Over The Rainbow may be even better!

    I found Eva via an interview with Barry Gibb of the Bee Gees. He loved her so much. I love her too. Taken from us too early, but we will never forget her. Thank you Kathy, Lulu and Donna for sharing Eva's life with us. We are all just ordinary folk, who love people who love music. Her light still shines.

    Eva has become an inspiration and reference for the new generation: Angelina Jordan, Lucy Thomas, …, Katy Melua before them, they all got inspired and used her cover versions.
    Sting said she sang his Fields of Gold the way he should have done it and that the song was hers now.

    I discovered "Eva Cassidy - Fields of Gold" as a song about 10 years ago. I heard somewhere she died from cancer at 33 years of age. I never knew any thing else about her until now. Amazing story. You should check out her album Songbird............. wonderful songs on it! Thank you for sharing and reacting to this wonderful woman. God bless and may she Rest In Peace.

  • @curtisduncanmusic7645
    @curtisduncanmusic7645 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I have a few suggestions: "Timeless Voice" is first. It's a lengthier look at the Eva Story. And second, Look at "One Night That Changed Everything." It's the story of the two nights that were recorded which became "Live at Blues Alley." Her band gets together 10 years after those two nights, and they talk about Eva and what an incredible experience it was knowing her and playing music with her. Both videos are worth watching whether you react to them or not. And just so you know, Eva covered Sting's song, "Fields of Gold." And he said that he wrote the song, but Eva owned it!

    • @barbaraheil7894

      Actually, that documentary was done in 2021 to mark the 25th anniversary of the Blues Alley date. It is well worth your time to watch it.

    Over the Rainbow? Better than Judy Garland. Autumn Leaves? Better than Nat King Cole. Danny Boy? Better than Jim Reeves. Fields of Gold? A lot better than Sting. I could go on and on.

    This is why I do not watch the Voice, AGT, and these other so called talent shows. Eva was a TRUE Talent, and would not have ever lowered herself to having an online voting or judges determine if she could sing or not. I found out about EVA many years ago, and went out and bought he CD's that were available. I worked as a self employed painter, and would play her music through my boombox, and everyone would always ask, who is that? An interview with Sting, who wrote Fields of Gold, said she owned that song! It brought tears to him, as he said, that is how i thought of it being sung.

  • @dh728
    @dh728 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Everything Eva sang was amazing. She made a song her own. My favorite by her might be "How Can I Keep From Singing". I highly recommend listening to everything she did.

    Hey Lovely Gals, are you familiar with the brilliant music of Nick Drake? He did not survive his battle with depression as a young man in the 1970s, yet he composed some of the most poignant, lyrical, and melancholic music ever created. Often hailed as the Vincent Van Gogh of modern pop music, his work remains a testament to his genius. I would be thrilled to hear your thoughts on this remarkable artist. I suggest starting with "Day is Done," "River Man," and then "Fruit Tree," "Chimes of the City Clock," and "Pink Moon." Has anyone mentioned Nick Drake on your channel before?

    Even after 5 weeks of hearing this, I am filled with tears of pure joy almost before it begins.
    Even with all the road blocks that got in the way of her fame before she passed away, GOD ALMIGHTY, who blessed her with this talent had HIS own plan to make a dying World aware that many popular songs could bring new meaning for hope and love and a purposeful future for all who are willing to listen and receive the message. Among others, we can believe that at the time it seems that life is over, we indeed, like the happy bluebirds, will FLY SOMEWHERE OVER THE RAINBOW, to join our Savior In The Sky, wether it is individually or enmass at the RAPTURE OF GOD'S CHURCH.

    Katie Melua's song (Faraway Voice) was written (by Katie) about Eva Cassidy, actually. (Late) Eva Cassidy made a big impact on her when Katie was 18. - th-cam.com/video/6NnbwJYPE84/w-d-xo.html

    Another gem you have to discover: Lara Fabian.
    Almost unknown in USA as she has been prevented to perform and succeed there but a legend in many other countries.
    She is an idol for Dimash, a role model for Josh Groban, an inspiration for Diana Ankudinova.
    Barbra Streisand, Shirley Bassey, Linda Eder, Josh Groban, …covered songs from her ( she is a songwriter in 4 languages) and this is also the case from the new generation: Dimash, Diana Ankudinova, Floor Jansen, Cakra Khan, Gabriel Henrique, Morissette Amon, Forestella, Gigi de Lana, Katrina Velarde, Polina Gagarina, Jackie Evancho, Regine Velasquez, Rimar, Almira (4th impact), … they all covered at least one of her songs.
    Check her with these classics Adagio th-cam.com/video/bqoS-KOLV_4/w-d-xo.html, Je suis Malade th-cam.com/video/eHSyk4SGtuY/w-d-xo.html or Broken Vow th-cam.com/video/kJBGCI8aSE4/w-d-xo.html
