Eva is so good it’s beyond incredible. I would give anything to be in that studio when she delivered these goods. Holy God. She’s just a monster of command.
this is another song I haven't heard before from Eva. I can't get enough of her. She is inspirational - how can someone with so much joy and soul to give to this world be gone from it forever? She would have been a superstart if she lived today. What a tragedy she is gone. What a miracle she existed at all.
Amazingly versatile Eva. if the record producers had recognised & embraced this sooner instead of quibbling about`categorizing` her , she would have had Worldwide acclaim in life.
I am humbled by you, Eva. I have not heard a song from you I don't like. You continually find another way to speak directly to my soul.The way you change your voice from verse to verse and so wonderful at every turn. From hard to soft then back again.I know I'm not the only one who feels this way obviously but you are the secret everyone needs to hear. I am crazy about you, Babygirl!
Thanks michouberlin ! This recording highlights Eva's incredible musicality in the harmonies and vocals. It is an original composition by her friend and co member of a highschool rock band, David Christopher (Lourim), who had a signifigant amount of talent himself, and brought Eva into the home studio of Chris Biondo, with whom she recorded, formed the Eva Cassidy Band, and expanded her musical world. Tony Taylor, a talented producer/composer did most of the arranging, and added his talent.
I never thought anyone would surpass Aretha but Eva is it. I mean no disrespect to the queen but Eva could sing anything better than any one. Anyone. God she is special!🎺
Eva’s touch on a pop style endeavor is once again spectacular. Everything she touches is simply the greatest moment ever. Wow! What a song. Just power beyond belief. 🎺
so 13 years later and even though Eva is known for softer work, I do not, not, understand why this hasn't got 1 Million views at least. What a voice, passion and a heart breaking topic. Dark night broken lights A boy on the corner with his hands held high He sees a gun sees an eye But he'd rather get shot than give it up Works for a violent man Who expects to get money when he sees him again And if he doesn't die on the corner tonight It won't take too long to catch him Children throw their lives away yeah A little more dying every day Little young man he ain't got a lot But he'd sell his whole world just to get what you've got He's not even sure if his body's hooked But if he gets a little higher he could fly away Little young lady watch her children play There's two outside and one on the way She hasn't seen her man in a thousand days Since the police came around and took him away Children throw their lives away A little more dying every day Children throw their lives away A little more dying every day Children throw their lives away yeah A little more dying every day Sirens scream through the empty streets Headed to the scene of another mistake One man hanging on the edge of life The other one thrown in a bag The children watch the children think That the bottom line is that nothing's free But it doesn't take much to end a life When the thoughts stop coming out straight Children throw their lives away A little more every day
How would you like to have been in the studio the day that this was recorded? Imagine the goosebumps everyone must have had during this song. It's just incredible.
When Eva was in the studio, we liked to listen at the board. There was always a point somewhere in the song where we'd go "Woah!!!!!" It was a privilege to be there.

Dark night broken lights
A boy on the corner with his hands held high
He sees a gun sees an eye
But he'd rather get shot than give it up
Works for a violent man
Who expects to get money when he sees him again
And if he doesn't die on the corner tonight
It won't take too long to catch him
Children throw their lives away yeah
A little more dying every day
Little young man he ain't got a lot
But he'd sell his whole world just to get what you've got
He's not even sure if his body's hooked
But if he gets a little higher he could fly away
Little young lady watch her children play
There's two outside and one on the way
She hasn't seen her man in a thousand days
Since the police came around and took him away
Children throw their lives away
A little more dying every day
Children throw their lives away
A little more dying every day
Children throw their lives away yeah
A little more dying every day
Sirens scream through the empty streets
Headed to the scene of another mistake
One man hanging on the edge of life
The other one thrown in a bag
The children watch the children think
That the bottom line is that nothing's free
But it doesn't take much to end a life
When the thoughts stop coming out straight
Children throw their lives away
A little more every day
WOW!!! This is my first time hearing this. I was blown away by it. How the hell did we sleep on this wonderfully talented lady?
I'm so glad I found this song again! So Powerful!
Yes indeed. She took what Aretha had to teach and SOARED!
