What is really interesting to me , I read an interview with the accompanying pianist for THIS performance.
Eva asked him to to do " a little something " in the middle of the song ...
he was very nervous as it was UNREHEARSED !
I'd say he did a wonderful little improv. there ... don't you ?!
Such musicianship ; BOTH of them !
This song is an old standard. She had the singular ability to make any song in any genre her own. RIP Eva.
I wouldn't describe myself as an emotional wreck but every time I see & hear this girl I'm ready to blub like a baby. Her rendition of 'Over the Rainbow' especially gets me.
Her song "Over The Rainbow" from this same session might be one of the most watched videos on TH-cam. Means more when you know she died 10 months later.
wonderful as it is its not her song as isn't this one ! as far as I know she wasn't a song writer
It was written in 1939. Judy Garland's version in Wizard of Oz is fantastic to. Eva's means more to me though.@@stevenaustin8274
Over the Rainbow was written by Harold Arlen and Yip Harburg in 1939 for the film The Wizard of OZ. Where Eva excelled was her interpretations of many genres of music. Jazz, folk,country,blues and standards they were all treated to her wonderful artistry.
this was played at a remembrance service for my father in 2013. About 50 people there and not a dry eye in the house. For me, this is the greatest of her recordings, it is just absolutely sublime.
With Eva, the purity of her voice and her impeccable control is just the beginning. She uses those tools in service of her interpretation of the song, in order to express the feelings of sadness and loss. She sings straight from her heart - in fact she missed out getting a contract with a major label when she refused to sing anything she couldn't connect to emotionally. She said, "I won't sing any of that pop crap."
Autumn Leaves is an old jazz standard, often done in an up-tempo swing style. When I first heard Eva sing it I realized I had never before heard the song as it was really meant to be performed. Once you've heard this version, the bouncy cheerful versions sound so empty of feeling.
Your reactions caught the important thing perfectly: when you hear her you feel as if you're seeing into her soul.
(And it's worth pointing out that just before she went on stage her pianist asked her what key she would be playing it in and she let him know it was a half-tone higher than usual, which meant that that perfect piano interlude was improvised in a key the pianist usually didn't play it in.)
Eva takes other people’s songs and makes them better in ways they couldn’t have imagined.
Eva will rip out your soul fill it with beauty and put it back again...❤😊
You must check out her rendition of Over The Rainbow. It's incredible. She reinvented the song. I first heard it in the radio, at the hospital when my mother was very sick. We played it at her funeral three years later.
Eva is the greatest courier of song whoever lived here with us. Everything she did is magnificent. Enjoy your discovery. You’ll never experience anything like this again. She’s simply otherworldly. Enjoy!!
Eva is simply an angel with that voice. How can you not be moved to tears and emotion? Her gift is from somewhere else and we were privileged for such a brief time to hear her.
You must review Over the Rainbow from this same performance. It makes me cry with joy and sadness in such a good way every time. Such beauty. RIP Eva, you wonderful beautiful soul.
I repeat the other requests. You just have to listen to her live performanc of "Over the Rainbow". Her singing and guitar playing are spectacular. Performed with a bad cold and only months before she died of cancer.
I absolutely LOVE to see your reactions to the enormous talent of Eva Cassidy. Please look up "Fields of Gold" and "Time After Time." On "Autumn Leaves" her pianist, Lenny Williams, said that he was worried that his solo would be, in his words, "painting a moustache on the Mona Lisa." Eva's performances are so incredible because there's no cutting and pasting, no auto-tune, no ego trips or anything of the sort. She was quite simply the most incredible naturally gifted singer of the 20th century,.
My mother loved Eva Cassidy and introduced us to her. My mom died of pancreatic cancer in 2003, and she passed with Eva's voice sending her on. At her memorial service we played I Know You By Heart and How Can I Keep From Singing by Eva, both incredible songs. Even after all this time, Eva can bring me to tears.
She was truly one of a kind. How she arranged her songs was genius. The emotions she poured into her songs, and her voice...yes, it's as if she opened her heart and welcomed us inside.
She has too many beautiful songs to list, but Somewhere Over the Rainbow will take your breath away. If you want to see her blues side, try Blues in the Night, it will blow your headphones off.
Love your reactions, thanks so much. ❤
The sad part of it all is that she didn’t get any recognition until after she passed away. Her music will live on forever. Please watch, “Over the Rainbow” listening to it is as if she knew that she would be leaving us. RIP😢 th-cam.com/video/2rd8VktT8xY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Kaqf4EzqAuVkyfO1
Eva only came to the publics attention in Britain after her untimely passing. Her music was pioneered by a radio dj ( Tony Blackburn ). Lovely reaction as usual.
Thank you very much for this reaction. This is my favorite performance of this so beautiful song, which has an interesting rich and long history and was performed in various versions, including the instrumental. Also was the inspiration for the film.
This song has that effect on you Andrei. You have feelings - that’s good in this day and age.
Eva and Karen Carpenter. Two exquisite songbirds gone long before their time. So incredibly touching and sad.😢
Love them both.
Seriously, for your own sakes, you need to hear Eva do Somewhere Over the Rainbow. if you do, have tissues handy. you will cry. i always do. this is her gift, and her gift to us. she touches your herat and soul.
It's ok brother, you let them tears flow, it is impossible not to feel something listening to that, it makes you think of those we have lost, peace and love to you.
melancholy is such an incredible mix of beauty and heartache that does touch your heart. If you see the whole session and you may have heard at the end of this clip she has a little laugh with the audience to break the moment and bring everyone back!
Breathtaking ❤
Autumn Leaves is based on a French song "Les Feuilles mortes" ("The Dead Leaves") composed by Joseph Kosma in 1945. It has become a Jazz Standard.
This is a wonderful version.
Thank you! You should watch her video of "Over The Rainbow" in Blues Alley (I believe recorded at the same time as this). A rarity in style and talents and it's too bad she died so very young. As a matter of fact, not long after "Rainbow" was filmed (6 months or so). You would really enjoy it! Thank you, again! 😊
Thank you for your heart felt response.
Thank you for introducing me to this song. Every other song I've seen you review already knew but not this one. 🙏
This is my favorite of Eva's covers that I've heard so far. It's heartbreaking and beautiful, and brings a new shade of meaning to the song. Great reaction!
I love this song! Although I've heard Eva Cassidy before, this is only the second time I've heard the song in English. There are several versions of the original French by various artists, but I'm most familiar with Roger Williams' piano cover, which my late sister played beautifully. Thank you for the memories!
She was so good and she would have been a most celebrated singer if she just had more time.She had such a beautiful voice and bared her soul every time she sang.RIp,Eva.
Such a magnificent artist she is. This is an old song she is covering - but it's the best version I've ever heard. I would call this a sweet and a bit sad song.
Songbird ,, Time Is A Healer .. I Know You By Heart are her best songs 5/5
She’s mesmerizing every time I hear her sing.
I almost cried like a 6 year old girl the first time I heard Eva sing this. The problem is that I'm a 61 year old man
That's not a problem. This vocal and others by Eva have been rerecorded with the London Symphony Orchestra on an album called 'I Can Only Be Me'
Try "Nightbird". My. Favorite from her.
She knew that she was sick when she recorded this song and she knew this would quit possibly be the last time she would be able to record something so she just poured her whole soul into these last songs for this show
Over the RAINBOW LIVE next please...dos vidonia
Great reaction. I love it when she makes people feel something. You are two of the very best reactors.
"Autumn Leaves" is a beautiful and melancholic song that speaks to the fleeting nature of life and the inevitability of change. The lyrics describe the falling leaves of autumn, which symbolize the passing of time and the loss of things that we hold dear.
music can do that to you, Good music always touches us....Great react,,,I know how you feel Andrei!
If you like songs about Autumn then there are two from Van Morrison that I would strongly recommend. First the upbeat jazzy and sexy “Moondance” and second the beautiful haunting “When Autumn Leaves Start to Fall”
OMG! I never eveb heard of her! Thank you for introducing me to this incredible artist, and for your heartfelt reaction .... wow ...
Lovely reaction to a gorgeous song..... now you MUST listen to Over the Rainbow! You will be blown away!
Please listen to Over the Rainbow as well - you will not be disappointed
Thanks for your reaction. The quality of my life has improved after learning of Eva Cassidy and Angelina Jordan. Both master singer storytellers.
I can´t listen to this performans without getting tears in my eyes.
This just evokes all that is Autumn. The end of the year is coming. Winter is setting in. Always feels like this
Absolutely exquisite. This is my favorite Eva Cassidy song. She is best known for her Over the Rainbow cover which is equally exquisite.
Checkout.Eva doing " What a Wonderful World"
Check out Eva doing any song. She was amazing.
I consider that song by her extra special because,out of all the songs she could have chosen,it was “What a Wonderful World” that Eva chose as the last song she would sing in public at the benefit gathering of friends and family just weeks before she passed away. She was so sick by then that she had to be helped up on stage. I’m sure there wasn’t a dry eye in the house.💔
My tears flow even before listening to Eva.
Love your reaction Andrei. Eva had a gift to make you feel what she sang. She was an angel. Love you guys too
CAPTIVATING 🎶
In 2012, jazz historian Philippe Baudoin called the song "the most important non-American standard" and noted that "it has been recorded about 1400 times by mainstream and modern jazz musicians alone and is the eighth most-recorded tune by jazzmen
Could you please react to Eva doing Over the Rainbow.
Life is so cruel. Eva was a one of a kind vocalist, and it's criminal her talents became known after her death. Her duet album of covers with Soul/R&B singer Chuck Brown is amazing
You truly truly MUST react to Eva's live performance of Over the Rainbow. While every performance of Eva's is amazing, Over the Rainbow is, in my opinion (and in the opinion of many) to be the ultimate. Perhaps because it is such an iconic and widely-known song, yet she managed to make it entirely her own. Also because she brings a heartbreaking, poignant feeling to it that no other singer has evoked. Here it is: th-cam.com/video/2rd8VktT8xY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=ZEcHLnOa0rzS13hx
That might quite be the thing ever put on tape. Very moving considering that she passed shortly after this was recorded.
omg, you have to dit deep into this diva: over the rainbow, city lights, time after time...just about everything she does
"Over the Rainbow" - please!
She just makes you feel....to the heart
One of the most incredible live performances in history. She is other-worldly. Live on a stool in a bar. Sensational. Always reaches deep into my soul.
Unbelievable voice. Incredible version. Heart wrenching performance. Simply legend.
Such a beautiful performance
Been listening to her since the album came out.There is nobody like her period, she was just the best.
She really sings as an angel!
"Autumn Leaves" is a popular song based on a French song "Les Feuilles mortes" ("The Dead Leaves") composed by Joseph Kosma in 1945. The original lyrics were written by Jacques Prévert in French, and the English lyrics were by Johnny Mercer. Kosma was a native of Hungary who was introduced to Prévert in Paris,
Someone pointed out the piano. I couldn't remember that being included. Great guitar work as usual. RIP Eva!
'Fields of Gold' is another beautiful rendition by her
Beautiful, I was right there with you my friend.
If you're anything like me, you will always think of this song at the first signs of Autumn.
A true original.
Her music will live on.
Gone too soon.
Thank you for sharing and commenting.
The two of you might have a hard time with “Over The Rainbow”….especially Andrei 😏
I think she already knew she had cancer when this album was recorded 🥺
this beautiful classic with Miles Davis, Chet Baker and Eric Clapton are the BEST versions! But Eva is beautiful too!!!
I greatly appreciate your featuring Eva Cassidy. Another outstanding cover she does is ‘Bridge Over Troubled Water’. 🌹
The Wikipedia article titled Autumn Leaves says, "The original lyrics were written by Jacques Prévert in French, and the English lyrics were by Johnny Mercer." Beautiful words sung beautifully by an all time great vocalist. Music by József Kozma, a Hungarian born French composer (1905-1969). The song was released in 1946.
Please, Please react to Somewhere Over the Rainbow by Eva from this live performance. Bring wipes. Peace!
Angelina Jordan did an amazing performance of this song at the age of 10, which is worth hearing, enjoy...🦶🦶👑
She was never made more than $80.00 on any one gig! ❤
And that is really sad. 😢😢♥️♥️
This woman was touched by the gods at birth.. unfortunately God wanted her back very quickly and i'm not surprised he did
BTW,,, her cover of "Over the rainbow" from Wizard of Oz is BEYOND amazing and way better then Judy Garland's original IMO
the piano solo was done off the cuff ,no practice or warning it was to happen ... Lenny Williams adds so much depth with a very simple piano part ...
Gone way too young. I love that so many of her recordings are live performances. It gives such a tremendous authenticity and texture. She is truly missed.
Just know any song you ever listened to her sing is a cover , she never wrote any music This song came out in the 50s my parents knew this song ! If you really want to hear her vocal ability and range listen to the song Had I a golden thread ! It's more of a gospel song ! She was born to sing jazz , blues and gospel !
Hey guys, my love and admiration for Eva Cassidy has brought me to your channel. I want to compliment you for your humane and genuine vibes that resonated with me right from the beginning.
Your love for each other and, the tears, the touch and even the sound of your voices played as an integral part of the emotions that came with the song. Keep doing what you’re doing!
You Have a big heart , my brother. She has touched my heart as well.
She can really tell a story through song.
I used to feel bummed for her that she was sick here and you can hear it at the beginning and here and there. But I’ve come to realize that it gives her some fry and a beautifully mournful sound.
Over the rainbow will leave you wanting so much more. ❤
May i give you a tip. listen to Dawn Sears -Sweet Memories. Like Eva she has a voice on another level.
At the time of this recording, Eva already knew that she would soon die.
Check out her version of “Over the Rainbow”
i think you are on the right lines Andre, but i believe its from the opposite view point. this is the only small crowd she performed in front of and her only concert, in January 1996, she had just regained the strength to pursue her singing career, after fighting off skin cancer, albeit still unpopular and struggling. I think the songs she has chosen like fields of gold, over the rainbow, autumn leaves, nightbird etc are all song from a point of view of facing death and loss right in the face, this is her singing for strength and telling those close to her, she's ok with it. subsequently failing to a reoccurrence of cancer in September of 1996 and passed away in November 1996. still relatively unknown, all her 10 million record sales have been posthumous. she truly is a remarkable soul and like most beautiful artists, Van Gogh being another, are never apricated during their lifetimes.
I Know You by Heart is a tearjerker...
Haunting delicate perfection
RIP Eva. Gone too soon.
Gem!
Wow
So beautiful ❤️ RIP Eva
A wonderful performance by which all others will be judged. Thank you both for your very touching and insightful reaction.
Eva was an extraordinary talent. A great guitarist with a voice of an angel. Sadly missed.
