Man… Did she have a voice! Okay, so she never wrote anything original but what she could do to someone else’s song. SO GOOD!! What she did with Sting’s Fields of Gold. SUCH AN EMOTIONAL SONG!! She didn’t find any real recognition till AFTER she died from cancer. Her mom was still delivering her CDs to our job (Olsson’s Books and Records) up until we had to close our doors because we COULD NOT keep them in stock because the CD’s were like GOLD!! She was a local singer and DC LOVED HER! They still do…. Rest in peace Eva and know that your voice is STILL missed. 🥲

Eva is my sister's favorite all time singer....a song called "Songbird". I lost my mom to cancer last May and shortly after my sister was diagnosed with the same cancer. Shes fighting so hard and this song reminds me of her and Eva's courage. Maybe one day play SONGBIRD. Good to see you Jay.

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, Autumn Leaves, What A Wonderful World, Songbird. Thank you for your reaction.

Iz recorded that (in a medley with What A Wonderful World) on impulse in the small hours of the morning, and plainly didn't have the lyrics to hand, making a frustrating mess of them! Such a sweet, classic performance, though. Far too many greats leave us early: Iz, Eva, Karen Carpenter, Jim Croce...

Loved your reaction to this. Just think, this was live in 1996, she was ill with a bad cold, had only properly learned guitar a couple of years earlier. She would have been 60 years old this year if she had lived. Think of the music she would have given us. You should listen to Nightbird and Autumn Leaves by Eva. Nightbird is my favourite Eva Cassidy song and one of my favourites of all time by anybody.
