When Sting heard her sing his song "Field of Gold" he said he might never sing it again because he was blown away by her rendition.
Eva started playing guitar and singing when she was 11. She was also a talented artist.
listening to Eva for me is an emotional discharge whether it be sadness or joy, it relieves me. it's is cathartic, voice of an angel, no less
She directed the song back to its roots: Autumn Leaves was initially a sad french song called Les Feuilles Mortes, before it was transformed in the US into a more jazzy hit.
I don’t believe Eva knew this but her rendition is in the spirit of the original, even if she deconstructed/reconstructed it entirely.
Eva was such a music genius!
Songbird or I Know You By Heart are two really good ones to listen to. Her rendition of Danny Boy is fantastic also
Well sir you got to witness the most amazing vocal moment in recorded history. You handled it just as it should be. In simple awe with nothing to say. She’s just beyond words. She speaks to all who listen and takes you on her journey unlike any of the greatest vocalists I’ve ever experienced and I’m an old man. Wow! What a gift Eva is. Thank you Eva! Thank you so much.
How many people could sing with such a crystal clear, gorgeous tone in their voice when they are feeling well????? Not many. But Eva does this transformative performance with a cold?? Truly remarkable. One thing we can all be thankful for, is that she had a passion for music and figured out a way to pursue it , and develop a local following. That resulted in these most precious video moments that we can enjoy forever. She lives on musically and in our hearts. 🤗💖
She recorded this at Blues Alley in Georgetown, DC in January 1996, diagnosed with cancer in June, and passed away in November ... less than a year.. Her CD "Live at Blues Alley" captures the entire night...
Now get blown away by her bluesy wild version of "Stormy Monday". She could sing any genre.
Fields of Gold. Do it. Sting was so impressed that he said it was how envisioned it while he was writing it. And that he wouldn't sing it live anymore; now that's saying something, as he did it pretty darn well… 😉
And you should check out her chops with jazz. Stormy Monday. Ain't Doin Too Bad. Or some blues like Something's Got A Hold On Me.
I’ve watched quite a few reactions to ms Cassidy and this is just right. I don’t think we need a total dissection of what she just did, we all heard it. Just a simple wow. Nicely done 🙏
Thanks so much!
We felt it in our souls.
This is the best version of this classic song I have EVER heard. thank you, Larry.
You still don't know just what Eva can do....
You must check out Eva's Blues in the Night....she will still amaze you with her power and versatility, she can sing with anyone.
There’s an amazing YT called one night that changed everything, where they got together the members of Eva’s band who played this concert and talk about Eva and that night. They only had this one opportunity to get the live recording right, and the piano player talks about how nervous he was playing that solo. He played as simply as he could because he didn’t want to make a mistake and ruin the recording. It fits so perfectly. For everyone who loves Eva and enjoys this handful of live recordings we have of that wondrous night, I highly recommend watching that video!
Lenny William's break to me is the ice/sorbet course that sets off the rest of Eva's performance. Such a clean and appropriate tinkling (as he calls it) was just perfect for this song.
Lenny's piano solo is to my mind one of the most nearly perfect solo breaks ever recorded.
Another truly sad feeling is that the generation from when this song came out were blessed to hear it by greats like nat King Cole, but I wonder how much they would have been blessed to hear Eva sing it as well. The WWII generation who created so much of this beautiful music would have been moved to tears to have experiences this
It was a year before she died of cancer at 33.. and yes she was sick at the time, but I think it was a cold, and not the flu.
Yeah, she's incredible. Great reaction.
It doesn't get any better than this
There is just such honesty in her singing. She doesn't hold back, but she also doesn't over sing. She just puts it all out there. Sort of a mix between honest strength and vulnerability.
Mick Fleetwood of Fleetwood Mac was a big fan of Eva's and had seen her in person. Have you heard Eva's rendition of Sting's Fields of Gold. It is wonderful also and Sting basocally said it was hers now.
Chris, you can't go wrong with Eva. "Fields of Gold" (Sting) is my recommendation for the next.
Here in the UK she is reasonably well known thanks to the late, great, radio and tv presenter Terry Wogan. He found her shortly after she died and promoted her music.
That song is stunning
I concur!
She puts poetry into music and music into poetry. Tie that with her interpretive voice of silk and satin and we have her magic. WOW! Shear joy. Shear pleasure. Eva, I'm pleased to meet you. Sorry I just found you, but so glad I did.
I found Eva Cassidy a few years ago. Absolutely soulful voice and skilled guitarist. I have her CD and you can just sit back and feel the soul and heart without seeing the videos. Huge loss. Sad that she didn’t get to enjoy her success before cancer took her at such a young age. Cancer doesn’t discriminate and my heart hurts when a musician is diagnosed!!!!❤💔
There are at least a dozen more covers Eva did, many unfilmed, in a variety of musical styles you would enjoy. Jazz, blues, R & B, classics etc. recommend “You’ve Changed”. Not all of her best are melancholy. She had one more public performance, a tribute in this club she had great difficulty getting to. Using a walker. She was a very good artist also
She was simply one of a kind!
First song I heard Eva on was Somewhere over the rainbow. She brings me to tears. Emotional voice
Beautiful reaction, thanks.
Beautiful song, beautiful voice, beautiful reaction. Loved everything about it except the fact that she passed 😢
considered an incredible talent that had a life and career cut short with her disease. She had an amazing audience in my part of the US and that is in the Northwest. I consider her one of the most sensitive and used this sensitivity to the highest level with her music.
It does not get more sad, I think... Why her? This angel with her golden voice...
Live forever... yes, she may have died young but her voice was so beautiful it couldn't fade into obscurity. Her music never became famous and sold millions until after she died.
Another great Eva Cassidy song is Fields Of Gold. The original version was sung by Sting.
Eva Cassidy - Fields Of Gold, th-cam.com/video/9UVjjcOUJLE/w-d-xo.html
Sting wrote the track after he bought a house near a barley field. The sunsets and the colours of the field helped inspire the lyrics, along with his love for his wife Trudie Styler, whom he married in 1992.
In his book Lyrics By Sting, the singer described the view from his 16th-century Wiltshire manor house, which inspired the song:
"In England, our house is surrounded by barley fields, and in the summer it's fascinating to watch the wind moving over the shimmering surface, like waves on an ocean of gold.
"There's something inherently sexy about the sight, something primal, as if the wind were making love to the barley. I'm sure that the lovers have made promises here, their bonds strengthened by the comforting cycle of the seasons."
The song can be seen about a full romance from beginning to end.
The story of the song is chronological in nature and is about courtship, marriage, and lastly, death. The two people in the song meet, court, and fall in love.
Their romance is so strong that even the sky (or Heaven) is jealous of their relationship ("jealous sky").
Eventually, he dies and tells his lover that they will never forget their time together. Whenever she thinks of him, he wants to be remembered while she walks in fields of gold (or barley).
this is sooo beautiful
RIP Eva, you left us far too soon.
It’s such a travesty that she didn’t gain success for her gift until after her passing 🙏❤️ her voice just caresses the soul! Check out her version of Fleetwood Mac’s Songbird…it’s amazing!
Not to take away from some of the incredible originals..for me, I can feel her version of anything she sang was the best version I heard.
In case this isn't mentioned elsewhere in the comments - she didn't like playing the guitar because she didn't think she was good enough to play onstage. Her band browbeat her into it.
Gorgeous song and performance!
Chris, I have this cd. I learned about her talent when the local rock station had been playing another version of Somewhere Over the Rainbow with the Hawaii legend. People were calling into the station to ask them to play Eva Cassidy's version. So her version was played and she developed a big viral following ....it was amazing. So I have collected some of her music and feel that she was one of the selc
Songbird please ❤
The world is not fair for sure. But this community has lightened the burden. Love to all ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hello there, Patti! You're so right! This community is a blessing. It's like a cure for all evil. How you doing my dear friend? 🤗❤️
@@that_averagetyp Doing well. Staying busy. Take care.....love you 🤗
@@patriciajohnson9654 Great to hear that 🥰 love you too 🤗
Awww, my heart swells :)
Please watch this documentary about this weekend at Blues Alley. Her band mates put this together a few years ago to reminisce about Eva and the events surrounding the audio and video recordings. The piano player recalls that little solo he has to improvise in Autumn Leaves. He was a little nervous because she played it in an obscure key he had not played it in before. Lots of black keys.
As far as her being sick, I don’t remember them talking about that. But maybe. Fans say that about any singer that has a break in their voice during a song they think is a mistake. Then it gets repeated forever as truth.
Ok I rewatched the documentary.She did have a cold. But her main partner mentioned she had been playing guitar about 6 years at this point. She knew some when they got together as a band, but they needed her to be able to play better to contribute to the band that way. So she worked hard to become a very good guitarist. Link to the documentary

The only line that comes too me when I see Eva is a line from Don McClean in "Starry Starry Night" I could have told you, Vincent (Eva) this world was never meant for one as beautiful as you.
I would have loved to hear her version of McClean’s song.
PLEASE listen to her version of fields of gold! You'll need a tissue
Just "brilliant" ??? I've heard tons of version of this song and none can be comparing to such intensity and interpretation...
My daughter who lost her husband 11 years ago in an accident, cannot listen to this. It just breaks her down, it's so powerful!
Such a beautiful sould died at young age, a waste ... I miss her.
My favorite of all of her songs!I have her record and it sounds just amazing.
Conocí de esta artista a través de una novela (tengo la curiosidad de buscar y oír cualquier canción que se mencione en un libro). La canción era "Stay", me maravillo, la escuche y compartí muchas veces. Soy adicta a Dimash, tengo que decirlo, pero he pedido muchas veces a reactores y coach que reaccionen a esta artista y en especifico a esta canción, y es primera vez logro ver que se le dedica un video a ella, así que muchas gracias. Si no ha oído Stay, le encantara, estoy segura.
Eva sang this song live at Blues Alley in D.C. in 1996...she was very sick and in pain from advanced stage cancer at the time which was likely the reason for the break in her voice during the last line of the song, yet she still delivered an amazing performance. Eva died at age 33 shortly after this was recorded. Since her death all of her previously unheard recordings have been released on several CD's and download and streaming services. Every one of her songs is well worth having and listening to...Eva was truly an old soul and a deeply emotional and powerful singer.
The was recorded in January of the year of her death. She was NOT in advanced stage of her cancer, at least to anyone's knowledge at that time. She was sick with the flu. She learned of the diagnosis of her melanoma cancer later the same year @ June and passed away in November.
Such a tragedy she died so relatively young. I see you did a reaction to the mashup with her and Angelina Jordan singing Fields of Gold. It’s just beautiful, needless to say. I think Angelina was 15 at the time. I tear up every time I hear this, it’s so incredibly beautiful and Angelina was able to put on her very best “Eva” voice. You should also react to Angelina’s version of Autumn Leaves when she was 10, proving she was a child prodigy once and for all.
Never mind. I see you have already reacted to Angelina’s Autumn Leaves and were dumbfounded by her 30 year old sounding version. She is a vocal chameleon disguised as a child!
So perfect yet taken xxx
I first heard Eva Cassidy played by a BBC Radio2 DJ called Terry Wogan (RIP) who certainly brought Eva's music to the UK. Definitely worth a look is a documentary about her in which Mick Fleetwood talks about her playing at his club, and how she shunned the big recording companies as they wanted her to change her style and go away from covers......
Hi. Love your reactions and I am going to click subscribe. But please do Eva Cassidy's Nightbird. It is incredible.
Thanks so much!
Larry… new fan to your video reactions. I have to tell you that I love Eva Cassidy, one of my favorite female artists. Now over the years I have appreciate all of her work and here I thought I was familiar with all of her discography. But recently I have discovered a gem of hers that is now my absolute favorite of hers. Please react to ‘Tall Trees in Georgia’…
Thanks Mark! I'll be sure to add that to the list.
That’s a good one, also check out Oh Had I A Golden Thread to hear what she was really capable of
Want to hear power as well as finesse? Ttryher versions of Oh Had I A Golden Thread or Blues in the Night. She will knock your socks off.
Eva Cassidy was the best and we lost a huge talent 😢
It is incedibly easy to fall under the spell of her voice...
Yes, thankfully live on forever without pitch correction or auto tune. 🎉
You must listen to tall trees in georgia, its simply stunning.
Legit!!!!
She wasn’t just sick, she was battling cancer as well
Please vote up:
Eminem - Talking to Myself
Mic Righteous - Because I Love You
Both amazing songs to react to 🙏
I don’t know if there’s video of it, but Michael Bolton does a duet to a video recording of him and Eva in his concert. Be a good one to react to!
Hi Cutie
I missed you.
I hope you and your family is ok.
Lots of hugs 💛
Hey, I missed you too! Patti was also asking about how you have been. How are things going?
@@larryshair Thanks 😊. I have started a new painrehab on a farm. I like it and are hopefull it will help 🦋 I was at a consert with Chris Kläfford last week. It was amazing 🎶
watch NF:Just like you, NF:Why did leave us or NF:I just wanna know
she played guitar for a long time. She's a better guitarist than 95 percent of the jokers on youtube. And maybe it's just me, but i've yet to hear a clearer more beautiful voice in my lifetime, not to mention pitch so perfect it doesn't even seem possible. And she wasn't sick with the flu, she had bone cancer.
Her voice was hypnotic.
One thing to say: What a lost!!!
You couldn’t even react bro 😂 you just listened like we all do. She’s ok don’t worry she’s a singing Angel now
Hello, Chris. I have learned that she got her diagnosis AFTER this concert, but she WAS feeling ill. I guess she knew that something serious was up. She died 10 months after this recording. SO sad the whole thing. What a loss! Love from Al Go Rithm ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
Thanks! What a loss, right?
@@larryshair Yeah. The world is not fair.
Her primary skin cancer diagnosis was in 1993, when she had a “spot” removed near her nose. They found another malignant growth on her back and removed a large area of skin,but Eva only did minimal follow up after surgery.
@@Ctkare4k9 Oh, I see. Thanks a lot for the update❤️
@@poolhallshark you’re very welcome. There’s a great book out about Eva written by “those who knew her” and authorized by her parents. It’s titled “Songbird”. She was just so amazing!
Thank you - years ago her voice being used in a PBS advertisement made me stop what I was doing and search her out - it was the following song th-cam.com/video/2eR9xvwSWFc/w-d-xo.html
Thanks! I'll add this one to the list. Can't wait to hear it!
Check out Oh Had I A Golden Thread
Mucho se comenta respecto a que la melancolia y añoranza que envuelve su música se debería a que estaba enferma.
Es cierto estaba enferma, pero sin diagnóstico ni en su conocimiento.
Su cáncer fue diagnosticado tres meses antes de su fallecimiento y fue casi fulminante.
Respecto a que si es o no una buena cantante, el resultado esta a la vista y no solo como cantante, quizás si ella hacía los arreglos ya que se acompañaba muchas veces sólo con la guitarra, una intérprete de nivel Dios, capaz de llevarnos en un segundo hasta lo más profundo de nosotros mismos.
Buenos cantantes hay por millones, interpretes de este nivel, desgraciadamente, muchísimas menos.
You would think that this new style that she is exhibiting here would be a turn off for us old school angels (old geezers) that is definitely not the case
I think that she is trying to appeal to a younger generation. But it works for me !!!
She died in 1996...
Has a little Billie Holiday technique,😏
If you are still planning on Joyner Lucas, “I’m not racist” is one of his best
When are you doing Eminem "your never over". Proof tribute!?!?!
There is a version of this with full orchestration - holy . . . (expletive deleted) . . . th-cam.com/video/XTkUplF5VIE/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for this!
To be a man by Dax listen to it.
Such a poignant song. No one does it justice like Eva. That ending, sigh.
Nice performance. Nevertheless I prefer Angelina Jordan's version or cover (age 10). If you don't react to her cover, please react to it.
You are a good guy "larryshair", and thank you for your heartfelt reactions to dear, dear Eva. All my best to you and yours.
Thanks so much!
Aaaaaand your wife's crying again lol
You really need to listen to her cover of the Sandy Denny classic "Who Knows Where the Time Goes".
