It’s May 2022 and I’m still listening to Eva Cassidy! Who is with me?
February 2024.
March 2024....Eva is in my heart & soul...
I still think she has (had) one of the most beautiful voices. Makes me weep every time I listen to her.
This Angel may be gone but never ever, ever. EVER forgotten. I love her so much.♥️
I'm with you 5/3/2024
January 2024 and she’s still the best in my book!
Eva was phenomenal. She could sing anything. RIP songbird 🙏❤

It's so sad she didn't get the recognition while she was alive, but I think she'd be very proud people are so touched by her music.
I went to high school with her. Really didn't know her that well. I knew her father. He was a sculptor, cellist, and in his time one of the strongest men in the world. But I know people that were close to her and nobody has anything bad to say about her. She was an exceedingly kind person.
I get the impression that she was kind of unassuming… meaning not a big personality.
So nice to hear that, and so sad.
Just a gift from God
😮Her voice is like none other🎶
That’s amazing! She truly was an angel who walked this Earth! Now in heaven and gracing it with her beautiful and incredible voice! ❤
March 2024. Still listening to Eva. ,and will always. Such an inspiration, incredible person, with such an evocative, emo singing style. Timeless and beautiful.
For me she is the best female singer of all time. I know there are soul queens and R&B stars, even going back to blues era with Etta, but Eva is haunting .. it’s beautiful and haunting. Best voice I’ve ever heard
It's worth remembering that Eva had a slight cold when this was recorded, and was reluctant for it to be released because she thought she wasn't sounding her best. So this is Eva's voice not at 100%. And it's still incredible!
outside of Linda Ronstadt of course lol
yes. she touches my heart and my body is filled with healing chills. RIP Sweet Angel Eva
She is the " 𝘽𝙚𝙨𝙩 👍💯 "
And what do you think of Angeluna Jordan?
One of the most beautiful voices I have ever heard.
*the most
"This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you"
She has the best voice Ive ever heard.... male or female. She was gifted by God Himself.
Her music saved me in college, and now nearly two decades later, during a long dark period, she’s saving me again. I hope to one day speak to her on the other side and thank her and listen to her sing live. That legit would be heaven, to me. 💛
Glad to hear you're doing well and that her music had such an impact.
Her voice is my emotional vacation; the escapism needed after a trying day, week, month, year. I’m glad her legacy lives on through song.
I discovered her music a few years ago and listen to her constantly. Imagine the songs she could have sung.
🙏🏻 she is my escape
@@rwgoodship3653 She could’ve sang the phonebook, and I would’ve listened intently.
@@frank-ski A great escape. The great escape.
@@DreamingInTechnicolor ‘Fields of gold’ has never been covered better... better than the original.👍
I think this may have been one of the best singers of the last century...and like so many geniuses, she was taken too soon. I discovered only this week -- better late than never. What a gift to humanity.
Smiles, hello Sarah 🌺 😊
i havnt seen or heard the word humanity for so long.
thanks sarah RIP EVA..i havnt known of her that long either but she would have gone all the way to the top and beyond thats for sure..
Just heard one of my favorites ...Kelly Clarkson acknowledge Eva and sang her version of Bridge over troubled waters...
So I had to find Eva and I am sooo glad I did... wow lovely...
Hard to believe its been nearly 27 years since she died. A mere 10 months after this nights performance. What a gift to the world she was and continues to be.
Did she die already? Ohh God
A precious gift to the world that God gave us.
Surely. She is absolutely one of the best voices I have ever heard in my life. Flawless and incomparable. She’s got to be with God in Paradise. What a light in this world. Thank you Eva.♥️
This woman can make a Grown man cry like a baby listening to that voice
there really really really needs to be a "love" button on here! Beautiful rendition of a beautiful song.
Yes, a love button!!! Cuz you can only like it once and that's nowhere near good enough. So sad that she's gone. Her voice is so pure.
Yes. You’re right. This is fantastic ❤️❤️
@@estellegriffiths5118 Yea, Her what? 4-6 octave Blues phrasing was so rare that it wasn't quite understood along with her integrity. Angelic,,,,,,,literally!
One of the best ever female singers ever ,ever such a rare diamond 💎
I am stunned by her voice. I don't yet have adequate words to express my love for her music and herself.
Smiles, hello Maureen 🌺 😊
She was a young talented artist with heart, soul a very old soul for her time ❤️ which is truly a gift ❤️
She still retains the truest pitch and most effortless control I have ever heard. Pure heaven ! ❤️
She can sing at ANY volume in ANY octave
Maybe Mariah Carey is close? I can't think of anyone else.
And she maintains that pitch, control, and volume while venturing far afield and taking HUGE chances with the phrasing and timing.
She almost never fails to make it back cleanly.
Oh what I would give to be able to do that
Whew! I say again... whew!
(I don’t normally comment. But when I saw that only 64 comments were left for this piece of art, I had to do something).
She is too perfect to say something!
You are the lo 😃😍
May 2024. Millions whove never known you miss you Eva.
Why am I just discovering this wonder? So powerful and beautiful. I'm always amazed by how much talent there is in the world and how we all will only encounter a small slice of it.
And she’s been dead for over 25 years. Huge loss
Today my first encounter😮❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I asked the same question when i discovered Luther Vandross about 2 years ago!
Look within your heart and you will also find it there.
Eva and Karen Carpenter my favourite female singers, her voice is pure and simply stunning. Beautiful lady sadly missed 😭💞💗
Never forgotten Eva , still listening to your beautiful voice … thank you 🙏🏽🤍
Wow ! Eva brings Gospel and Blues to this Paul Simon Masterpiece.
What a good back up Band !
When the Piano comes in it is delicious.
I am always critical on any performance. Live, in the studio... anytime. Trying to inspire the artist to become better. Looking for technical improvement... and in the evening I just sit back and enjoy Eva. The ultimate musical perfection. Thank you Eva for your dedication. We will keep on enjoying your talent and try to become half of it.
Best version ever! The really had a voice made out of gold and diamonds.
Almost 25 years ago Eva went to Heaven. Without a doubt she was the best female Singer to ever walk the face of the earth. And a good Guitarist as well. I still love what she did and I always will. RIP and sing with the Angels
She died 25 years ago today, Nov. 2, 1996. What a gift. What a loss.
What the fuck??? No way
Amen!
Yes Eva Cassidy was the greatest to walk the earth
Maybe if Aretha Franklin never had to walk!
Eva Cassidy is the best singer that cut deep my heart. Love from Indonesia
I was introduced to her artistry after she had passed many years prior…. Her voice and phrasing is outer worldly… I am so grateful that someone suggested her to me…. Now…. Not too many days go by when I don’t listen to Eva…yes…. One of the very best voices…
Allways love this women what a beautiful voice R.I.P. never forgotten...
So true dear Andrea, a beautiful soul who we as a people where privileged to be able to listen to. thank you for your comments have a lovely day.
I know she’s in heaven singing with the other angels! Thank you EC for sharing your gift with us. You were truly an amazing talent that left us way too soon. You are greatly missed. 💙
My grandmother’s song now with this voice...instant tears. Edit: a piece of my soul was given back.
Smiles, hi Carol 🌺 😊
She is one of the amazing, emotional, singers I’ve ever heard...we lost her far to soon! Heaven has a beautiful and talented soul, for sure!!
There is a concert in heaven and she's leading it and I can't wait to watch it
Listening to her in 2024
Jesus is my Bridge over troubled waters.
Matthew 11:28-30 “Come to Me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble of heart and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light”.
I am heartened that Eva in her life recorded gospel songs so I pray in her trials and suffering she relied on The Lord for her strength. RIP Eva.
Amen and amen sister! ❤
Bullshit
Yes, this brings song to mind when Jesus was being tortured and crucified and the Holy Spirit and his Father, God, provided him comfort.
He is mine, too!!❤
I am a singer and VERY picky who I'll listen to. Eva is THE GREATEST female artist that's ever lived!!!
You're exaggerating there.
Have you listened to Karen Dalton? Different style but great.
Well said. When the history of 20Century is written.Hers will be the ROYLS ROYCE of talent. No one comes close
Over rated
Check out a couple of female artist named Nina Simone and Sade.
Eva Cassidy you were an exceptionally creative song stylist. Through your music, you shared so much passion, emotion, uniqueness & added so much value to the world. What a phenomenon & an inspiration of the highest order. Thank you dearest Eva Cassidy. ❤️🎤💕🎸❤️🎤💕🎸❤️🎤💕🎸❤️🎤💕🎸❤️🎤💕
Smiles, hi Julia 🌺 😊
My God she was a beautiful lil hummingbird...I imagine her and Christine Mcvie are up there making beautiful music together. :)
Some great singers choose inadequate songs to showcase their talents.
Eva chose great songs, making her talents all the more evident.
What a fantastic voice and talent... A year younger than me but had a talent sooo much older and greater than anything I have . tears come to my eyes every time I listen to anything from this performance...
ABSOLUTELY Amazing voice, my first time hearing this beautiful soul sing. My Dad passed in November, this was our song. He was my bridge.
Eva gave this song the justice it deserves
She can sing anything. She was amazing. Idt she knew how talented she was
Oh, but Eva did know. .
That's why she never signed a record-contract.
What a beautiful soul. R.i.p
I never dreamed I would like anyone else"s version of this classic song. Eva is one of those very, very rare artists who can find a song they like and envision it in a totally unique way until it becomes their own ! This cover blew me away. She is such a treasure and I am so thankful that her friends insisted on capturing some of her work so we will have it to enjoy forever. A shining star in our universe 🌠❣
Gorgeous!!!!😊
It's very sad, that this very talented woman, never became a Superstar in her own Country. What a Talent! Just Amazing!!!👏
Hmmm, but Taylor Swift is.....that's the music industry for you.
She will be a superstar for eternity now that so many people know of her.
One of the greatest voices of all time. The world needs more of her.
Her voice is healing me right now so many trials and tribulations going on right now for me...but listening to her healing, angelic voice I'm on my way. Eva Cassidy gone way too soon but her 🎼 will last forever ✨️
Not only a great singer, she is a good guitar player as well.
Che voce che timbro ,,,sei ARTISTA ....
Great guitar player !!
@@michaelgranka7904 certo che si che assola,,,si si si ma a a a
Adesso è più facile ,,,,,dirti con il vero che è uno in noi ,,questo lo è,,,,
Sei un ammore bella ,,mi piaci ,,stare con te ,,,
TI A M O .
In the new documentary, her bandmates said she didn't want to play guitar in the band - she just wanted to sing. They encouraged her and she learned super quickly.
Wow! I’m just shaking. Tears are streaming down my cheeks. Eva is just taking you with her on a journey of pure feelings. She is so deep. So special. I’m so thankful to have this beauty in my life. Her gift is pure treasure. 🎺
Agreed.👌🏾🕊❤️
I start crying with almost every song she did. Amazing artist.
Fantastic soulful vocal laid down here by Eva. Divine version.
I weep when I hear her sing.. Such beauty.. such grace.. R.I.P. May your songs live on forever..
Slays me...from the guitar playing to her intensity, grit and unbelievable talent. What pipes she was blessed with
I will honor you forever Eva!!
Just stumbled on to her… OMG! Just absolutely love her voice! So sad she is not with us anymore… singing with the angels now🥰❤️
Not only was she a technically talented singer - seamlessly transitioning from belting in her powerful full voice to a soft and sensitive head voice - but she was also a gifted interpreter of a song. So much texture and emotion. Just amazing.
thanks man. wouldn't have known otherwise.
Beautiful voice from God 🙏
She makes a song come "alive" like no one else.......as you write----"a gifted interpreter of a song!"
Eva Cassidy is beyond incredible and amazing ❤ The most beautiful voice I ever heard 🥀
Just discovered her. What a stunning talent! Lost too soon.
I think she is the most beautiful thing I’ve over seen❤
My favorite singer. BEAUTIFUL
After the guitar break, from 3:40 on - she just totally changes the dynamics of the song into a blues run. It's just so fascinating. It's an angelic version of Joplin.
Brilliant beyond belief !
Blues, but with a gospel buttress. She's testifying!
I'm so glad I'm not the only one who heard this in her voice. She was like Janis, only a little smoother and staying at home in the upper register. Beautiful and fiery. It's a damned shame she didn't live longer. The songbirds colors had to bless heaven again I guess. I'm jealous.
Definitely. I heard a little Aretha Franklin for a few words there.
Bang on with joplin
The greatest artist in the world on a given night is probably in some bar with a band of brothers, with no plan B , giving 50 people everything he/she has
Agreed.
Their life is their song and their song is their life.
Right On.
@@robertgarland805 She was
a tiny little thing, and I heard she was quite shy. She preferred small venues and making albums. She was very much loved here (DC) and in the UK. Thanks to some influential fans, she can be heard all over the world now. Rip, Songbird. 🕊❤️
@@joiisler3012 thank you.
Eva's voice alone is pure class, but she goes way beyond that with her playing skills and putting it all together to make it stunning, so you have to listen to her.
She causes a reaction in your heart through her music
Well said.
I really wonder if Paul Simon had any idea what was to be done with his creation. What a phenomenal voice...
2024 and here again to thank Eva!
Something I've never understood about truly amazing singers - how do they belt out a gut wrenching tune like this and not fall apart blubbering in the middle of it? I think I know the answer - practice, practice, practice. I couldn't do it though (if I could sing, that is, lol). Eva just rips me wide open and my emotions come pouring out. She was truly amazing, and we all lost an incredible talent, most of us before we even knew who she was.
She will always be alive in her rhythm and lyrics and artistry. RIP lovely angel. 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🕊
It is difficult to find words adequate to express how exquisitely talented Eva Cassidy was.... she touches my soul...she was a gift to us all in her all too brief life!
Smiles, hi Melissa 🌺 😊
Stunningly beautiful voice. ❤
Her soul-stirring song is the most suitable song of our time.
Greetings from Japan.
Insanely good. WOW.
The best vocalist of all time. RIP Angel ❤
she died?
@@kellyanndean9374 yes she passed away in 1996
@@katherineraquelle1930 wow! I did not know this!😣
@@kellyanndean9374 , very young, unfortunately. Of cancer.
Breast cancer to be exact.
I did not think anyone could ever outdo the original. Wow!
Everything she sings is beautiful.
This is so good. God bless!
What an incredible treasure she was. Never takes more than 2-3 notes and I'm entranced by her again.... Her gift was transcendent.
Emotion, emotion. What a sensitive version of this marvelous tune. The concerts at the Blues Alley in DC must have been great moments.
Blues Alley has never been the same.
I have been to bigger shows and bigger names but this show at Blues Alley is a favorite memory.
A truly unique voice, performing a classic, and making it her own.
Love
A voice like water. Crystal pure.
She is the absolute best she can take a song sing it from her heart and give it a whole new meaning may she rest in peace I'm sorry I never had a chance to hear her live
🦋 This Beautiful angel inspired me to sing she’ll never be forgotten in my heart ❤️ She was a beautiful spirit on earth 🌹Heaven has a new angel 💔 Thank you Eva for leaving us this beautiful Mucic to lift us up an inspiring us to dream. Hope to see you someday in heaven 🌈
Just wow....No more to be said. Sadly missed, one of my late Fathers go to's
What a guitar solo by that man.
My 6th grade teacher played this song for us in class. I was 11. I never forgot.
God, my ❤️! What she does was/is magnificent!
I can't believe I have never heard of her until today. i was curious how she died. i have been watching videos all day. She had a mole on her back that was cancer. She did not get it checked out for 6 months and it spread internally. wow. so sad. She never had a chance to be a star. but we have you tube!!
Man I would have loved to have seen this set 😢❤
Just listening to Katie Melua sing this on you tube like her very much but no one beats sweet Eva.
Best version ever. What a great voice. I love it
It never gets old! Best version by far!
Great Singer and interpreter of song
Ok, it’s all been said, it just don’t get more real than this ! Sure miss her
Wow! Smashed it! What a voice, what a vocalist.
Eva Is Awesome
Smiles, hi Betty 🌺 😊
What a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful musician! We miss her!
Dear beautiful angel in heaven! Thank you Eva!
Beautiful
Smiles, so so beautiful Marie, feels really great listening, how are you doing? 🌺 😊

The best song, sung by the best singer
I love this lady she was beautiful talented n a gorgeous gorgeous looking lady I have her albums n I quite often listen to her late at nite while I lie in bed n just let her sing me to sleep every time I hear her sing I cry I just can't help it she has this magic about her just listen to her sing somewhere over the rainbow n autumn leaves oh man I cry every time n guess what I'm 70 years old n totally unashamed to admitting to crying when I listen to the late n very very great Eva Cassidy RIP Eva someday soon we'll meet n I hope jam n sing together I'm not that bad honestly ❤️ sleep easy ❤️❤️
I am with you man; have loved this song since it came out in the late 60’s, my first album I think of Simon & Garfunkel...no shame man
dandandkl thanks buddy I feel no shame at all in admitting to crying when I listen to her sing 🕊
She relaxes me, for sure; but I Can’t go to sleep while she’s singing.🙌🏾❤️
joi isler yes I for sure can understand that, all I want to do is listen to her ❤️❤️ thanks for commenting x
There are quite a few cds of her songs, compilations of all the genres she loved and shared. Love every one. The cds are on ebay, Amazon, and likely other sources. Her family published some of them. Love that youtube has so many videos of her singing and playing and the duets.
A beautiful heartfelt version. I love it! Incredible talent. ❤❤❤❤
Every time I hear her voice it rips my heart out...💕💕
