To this day, the best female vocalist I’ve ever heard. Nobody sang with such raw emotion and feeling that she did. She made every song she did her own, and almost always better than the original. My personal favorite is Songbird.
One thing many don't realize is that Eva was not a full time musician for most of her time with us. She worked at a Garden Center/Nursery. Imagine what she could have done if she had been able to spend all of her days exploring her craft. May she rest with the angels, ever in song.
I have no doubt that Eva’s vocal quality was worthy of working with National Orchestras. The power, enunciation, clarity, and control are up there with the best.
I love her. But every time I hear her I weep. For that wrongfully short life. For the stardom that came after she was gone. For the perfection of her voice. The brilliance of her arranging. And for not having her here in this life. I weep.
This song was my first experience of Eva Cassidy. A pure and beautiful a vocal performance as I've ever heard. Sting's original version is wonderful, but man oh man, this is something else. Truly golden.
You need to watch the video of Michelle Kwan ice skating to this song. It’s so beautiful, it rips your heart out, those two artists combined is almost more than we poor mortals can handle.
Excerpt from the official Eva Cassidy Fan Club facebook group: Eva’s friend Anna Karen sent Eva's recording of ‘Fields Of Gold’ to its composer, Sting. The former Police singer had rarely heard a voice of such purity. He was sorry to learn of Eva’s death and believed that this somehow took the song to a deeper emotional level. He was moved by Eva’s version of his song: “Her voice has a magical quality. It suggests something ethereal - something unattainable,” Sting concluded. I think we can say that he liked it!😘
I like how Eva can slowdown an upbeat song and make it heartbreaking, and fill it with a lot of raw emotion: Fields of Gold, Over the Rainbow, Autumn Leaves.
She is truly one of the greatest singers of a lifetime and you do her justice and reverence with your respect! She is a singer's singer. You could keep on doing a video on every song she ever sang and not disappoint anyone! Tall Trees In Georgia, Who knows Where The Time Goes, Time After Time are just a few more... thanks for the great reaction videos!
My favorite is her acoustic performance of Somewhere Over the Rainbow. To watch her play and see her face as she sings makes me cry like a baby every time.
This song is touching me in a really unique way. The vibe gives me chills in a really positive way and every breath i take feels deeper then usual and i calm down. At the same time i feel, next to those positive relaxing vibes, a deep desperation, suffering. Deep inside my head i get so melancholic, i am sometimes tearing up directly with the first chorus.
Maybe the realizations that she died so young makes us sad. . There's a poignancy to her work as if she sensed she wouldn't have long. Her music is timeless and her voice besutiful.
The way that a bird flies across the sky ..... just what it must do, does without consideration or effort ..... this woman Eva Cassidy AS NATURALLY & ENERGY AUTOMATIC EMOTES PURE SOUNDS SO BEAUTIFUL one can only marvel at the good fortune to be within ear shod of such mastery.
At times, she makes me think of another very talented singer, Roberta Flack. Such crystal clear softness and power while carrying real emotion. Bless her soul as she blesses us with greatness.
When Sting heard this version of his song , he said i may have written this song but After hearing Eva Cassidy sing it he said from now on this is not my song - TRUE

Sting might as well have written this for Eva to perform. She knocked this out of the galaxy.
It breaks my heart that she died so early! One of the greatest voices I have heard!
I always cry when I hear her sing this. It just touches the center of my heart.
Eva died of cancer Nov 2 1996. What a loss. I can't watch this song without tearing up

Well, glad you discovered her. What a treasure.. and loss.
we are so lucky she sang for us,even for a short while

Who actually comes close to this superb singer. Brings tears to your eyes. Makes you feel happy and sad at the same time.

She sounds so mature because she was a bright flame that burns so intensely, but for such
a short time
Love this video. Beautiful photos of Eva Cassidy, I agree with you; such emotion expressed.. Watching again.
I love her. But every time I hear her I weep. For that wrongfully short life. For the stardom that came after she was gone. For the perfection of her voice. The brilliance of her arranging.
And for not having her here in this life. I weep.

Mine too. Made me an instant fan.
Lived near her in Bowie, Md... she went to Bowie High. Died of skin cancer in early 30's..

Eva is my favorite singer and no one else is close - could listen to her for hours on end

When you have your headphones on it's just You & Eva, and nothing else in the world matters......
How you two held it together, without a tear running down your face. I don't how you did it.
A vocal that transports you upon the west winds among the fields of barley.
A rare voice, so pure and natural - simple perfection.

I feel like she pretty much owns this song by now
This must be what music is like in Heaven!
My favorite is her acoustic performance of Somewhere Over the Rainbow. To watch her play and see her face as she sings makes me cry like a baby every time.
The greatest. FYI this song was written and first recorded by Sting. Different styles but Eva's voice on this cover is magnificent.

I came to know this cover because of the Michael Bolton entry with Eva's vocals. I love it

Lovely review, thank you
Danny Boy is a must watch as well!!
For my money, this is Eva's masterpiece. I imagine her up in heaven smiling every time this performance brings a tear to someone's eye.
At times, she makes me think of another very talented singer, Roberta Flack. Such crystal clear softness and power while carrying real emotion. Bless her soul as she blesses us with greatness.

It would have been a great duet with Sting
thank you so much for reacting to Eva. I really appreciated your reaction

Lost her far too young. Sting writes some great songs.
Whos the girl at 2:24. Thats not Eva
React to Le Manu by Shepherds Reign 🇼🇸
Sting's version is way better!
Eva's voice is just stunning .Pure and so much emotion .Sting even said when he heard her version it was her song. RIP Eva taken way to soon.😥
@@evamangan101 yes but his version is still better
Sting doesn't agree with you.
