Just about anything Eva did is phenomenal. I'd recommend Autumn Leaves, if you hadn't done it already. Her rendition of the Blues classic "Stormy Monday" show's off how effortlessly she handled that genre. I'd say just go through her entire catalog. Just stunning! ..She was a bright, shining star, in a sometimes very dimly lit world. Yes, her story is very sad, but she left us all the incredible gift of her music, and for that we should be grateful. Subscribed.
Watched this performance 100+ times and always become emotionally involved. Of course, I have also listened to her other songs and love them (Songbird, Fields Of Gold, etc.).
Eva Cassidy was so incredible what a voice and talent. It was such a tragedy and loss to the world when she died of cancer at only 33 years old in 1996, but her music will forever live on. Some other Eva Cassidy recommendations are Danny Boy, Time After Time, Fields Of Gold, Autumn Leaves, What A Wonderful World, Songbird. Thank you for your reaction.
She was discovered in UK, when this song was played on the BBC 5 years after her death. It was immediately a tsunami of phone calls, people amazed and wanted to lnow more abiut her and the song being replayed. Some albums were produced from her recordings and they topped the UK charts, in a way that only The Beatles had achieved before. She didn’t know she had melanoma when this was recorded. It was recorded early January 1996, she discovered she had this in May of the same year, and she died in November. What a loss 😭 The song she sang in her last public appearance just a few weeks before her death? "What a wonderful world" 😱 She has become the new reference in covering Over the Rainbow, and the new generation sing it now in the same way (eg Angelina Jordan). I recommend next Autumn Leaves, Nightbird, Stormy Monday, Fields of Gold, Time after Time, Blues in the Night,…
Mate, Eva Cassidy is my all-time favorite female music artist… It’s literally impossible to find a bad song in her entire catalog it is 100% top notch work, her covers, IMHO are often better than the original versions…Eva mastered all genres of Music from the Blues, Soul, Country, Pop & Gospel ( and is also a tremendous guitarist in her own rite, as she is the one playing acoustic guitar all alone on most of her tracks)…Do yourself a huge favor ( even if you don’t do a reaction video of it) and just watch her entire Blues Alley live concert (Eva passed away within 10 months of this performance), which the OTR video came from, it’s amazing and available on UA-cam..Some of my favs, At Last, Bridge Over Troubled Waters, Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain, Danny Boy, Oh, Had I A Golden Thread, & Tall Trees In Georgia…Good Luck Jjh
My opinion was she did. I have taken care of many people as a caregiver and almost unanimously they say they "had a feeling" long before the actual diagnose. The cancer was already there, no one knew. Melanoma is an absolutely treatable form of cancer. But like with all cancer, so much hinges on early detection. she had a mole removed years before and I doubt didn't think of it again. At some point she would have started to feel sick. Her immune system would have gotten compromised so she'd be susceptible to every cold and virus she was around. Fatigue, very non descript symptoms, nothing that would cause an alert. Is this regard it's similar to pancreatic in that it goes undiagnosed for so long because it's incredibly hard to find it under symptoms disguise to be benign. Pancreatic however is worse in that if you get that, it's a wrap. But melanoma flies under the radar because it can be just as hidden. For Eva, it had metastasized at some point. When she sang this, it was already spread. So hearing that end note, the emotion that stole her voice for a second, I truly think on some soul level, she knew. This song felt almost like an epitaph, not unlike johnny cash singing Hurt months before his death. Difference is Eva took a song that was given #1 song of the 20th century status and made it hers. To think if not for these recordings, we would have never known her. How darker a world that would have been
Fields of Gold. Another beautiful rendition by this glorious talent.
I will check em out !
