Eva sang from her heart and soul and died 10 months after this concert from skin cancer, she touches our souls with her songs...such a gift ❤
I swear i cant make it it past the first line in this song wuthout my eyes filling up. Easily the best version ever sung. Its one of those songs you've heard a million times but you hear this and you feel it. Brings me so many memories if my mum who passed away when my daughter was 3, she loved this version and my daughter now 15 actually learned to play it as a surprise because she knows how much it means to me. I like to think my mum heard her play... what can i say its just stunningly beautiful 💜
There's nothing left to be said. She OWNS the song now.
100%
No one should or could do it again
Not any more !! Lucy Thomas sang a tribute to Eva of OVER THE RAINBOW, and owned that song !!! Lucy is so much better singer than Eva, you have to watch it and see and HEAR it, STUNNING performance to honor Eva !!!
This is her song now and forever. So sad, she passed away half a year later... Really one of the greatest singers ever.
Hits me the same way. I think there's a little added sadness when you know that she passed at just 33 years old. RIP
It touches my very soul and leaves me in silent, every time. RIP, Eva.
I’m so thankful that these live recordings exist 🥰
Somewhere over the rainbow she is still hitting those notes for a better audience than us. What a gift.
God called her home early for a command performance. She does leave one speechless because there's no way to describe what she does. Her voice is so astonishing we sometimes forget she's also the one playing that perfect accompaniment on guitar. Never was and never will be another one.
Her version of Cyndi Lauper's classic Time After Time is yet another example of Eva taking a wonderful song and giving it a touch of the divine
Voices like Eva's can stop you in your trax no matter what is going on in your life. The beauty and clarity is astonishing to my ears!
RIP sweet Eva i guess somebody needed you more than us earthly beings did.
She has some voice huh? Her arrangement, and her phrasing, just beautiful man, just beautiful. Diamonds in our ears.
I’m a grown man and it makes me cry every time.
I think I own every thing that Eva sung that has been released and in my opinion Eva's voice is simply a hug for the soul.
She's does an amazing Field's of Gold too
And Songbird of course
@@NickBR57 Agree!
Yes, she does a fabulous job on Fields of Gold.
Eva's choice to follow her own embellishments of the melody is stunning. There's such a wistful quality she brings to this classic song that tears your heart out. An aching lament for lost wishes. Her guitar accompaniment is as tasty as poured honey. What a gift she had.
Well put, James. Thanks.
Best version ever. Wow. The lonelyness indeed. Beautiful.
Evas cover of Fields of gold is just fantastic, highly recommend it!
I discovered her in 2001 and she is just amazing and wish she could have been here to see how much people loved her music.
Autumn Leaves is another old song sung by many but her rendition will always be my favorite.
Absolutely beautiful. She's one of my favorite voices. Fields of Gold will pull at your heartstrings(as do all her songs!)
My absolute favorite rendition of this timeless classic; such a profound loss. RIP Eva; sing with and for the Angels; they'll understand your true vocal beauty ✨💖🙏🏻🇺🇸
Eva was a precious treasure that we were robbed of. Her voice is so beautiful. First heard her sing "Songbird" several years ago. I cried then, but this one breaks my heart.
A beautiful voice, and incredible guitar work as well. She had it all.
An individual that has this caliber of this musical and voice perfection of this lady is extraordinarily exemplary. she knew by this time that she had terminal skin cancer. That last line just kills me!
When I first saw this video a couple of years ago, I looked like I had been in a rain storm by the end of the song because I couldn’t control my tear ducts. All respect to the original singer and legend, Judy Garland, but this is the greatest version of the song I have ever heard. I believe Eva Cassidy was as close to a “perfect” singer as you can get due to her incredible control, beautiful tone and her fantastic, heartfelt phrasing that was packed with emotion and when you add her incredibly creative arrangements and acoustic guitar playing, you had the “total package”. When I heard that she had died at 33 y/o from metastatic melanoma several months after this was filmed, and prior to her music going “viral” around the world, I felt a combination of sadness and anger that a once-in-a-generation talent like her could be taken at such a young age while many murderers, rapists and other filth of society will live to ripe old ages………
Fantastic reaction to Eva. I consider her to be one of the finest female vocalists of our time. And there have been many great voices, but as you said none as emotive is that. And not to forget that she did her own arrangements and her guitar playing is beyond worldly.
If you have not already done it, I would recommend Bridge over troubled Water by Eva. That's a powerful song to begin with and she does it more than Justice.
Within 10 months she woke up where the clouds were far behind her. Where troubles melt like lemon drops. She had perfect pitch and thus ... "Diamonds in our ears".
This is the absolute gold, no, platinum version of this song. There is none finer. I've listened to it probably over a hundred times- always alone, with a box of kleenex, 'cause I KNOW what it does to me- it dissolves me into a puddle of tears. Every. Single. Time. Eva pulls my heart right out of my chest with this one. And knowing her backstory just sharpens the blade. I am always gutted by this song, and I've seen a few reaction vids...even tough guys are usually crying like babies by the end, and deservedly so. Such pure, pristine, raw beauty is hard to handle.
As well-put as anyone could state it. Thank you.
The most talented musician you've never heard of. Eva's voice is absolute perfection in its range, control, tone, and emotional resonance. It just connects with your soul and brings tears that you can't explain. She is a fantastic finger-style guitarist, too. Her untimely passing was such a loss to the world.
Eva was amazing....thank you for this reaction
She was an amazing person!!! Was honored to call her a friend. The best voice I have ever heard, live or recorded...
It is now her song. She makes everything her own. It does not make me lonely but hopeful that there is a better place where the ones that I have lost are and someday we will be reunited there. I sob every time she sings and her version of Autumn Leaves has the same emotional impact. Sting said, "Fields of Gold, is now Eva's song" after hearing her cover. You could not have words of higher praise. She was magical in her delivery and on that guitar, to special to remain among the mortals!
Great reaction video, I fell in love with Eva’s voice around 20 years ago, and still love her today. To hear her amazing vocal range check out “Songbird” and “How Can I Keep From Singing”
Wistfulness is what I get,rather than loneliness. She sings this and makes it all her own. Suggestions by Eva:
I Know You by Heart
Leaves of Gold
Songbird
Fields of Gold
Autumn Leaves
Time After Time
What a Wonderful World
Wonderful suggestions, but I suppose we could list everything she has ever sung ❤
"I Know You By Heart" rarely gets reacted to (if ever?), but is actually my favorite of hers.
@@andyb7942 One of my very most favorites also. Let's ask Lyle to add that to his list.
@@andyb7942 it is a true love song,tender and sweet,in my view.
A great and unique voice and this version far outstrips the original.
Gives me shivers at the high line variation.
There is no version to match this.
What a lost talent. She died too young. RIP Eva.
Live at Blues Alley was Eva’s last live performance-last performance in general, and she knew it was her last. I was I trouble to her music about 20 years ago. Golden Thread is an INCREDIBLE song and a little more uplifting and showcases her amazing range. RIP Ms. Eva.
Your reaction videos are the best that I've seen on youtube since I discovered the reaction videos. Let me tell you why yours are the best. First and foremost is the ratio of the screen. The video of the performer is equal to yours. Most everyone else has the video in a 4" rectangle in a corner and the reactor's face covers the rest of the screen. You don't sing along with the video to prove to everyone how hip you are to know the lyrics and the melody. You don't rock back and forth to show how the beat moves you. You intently watch the video and listen and then give your opinion. Refreshing. Also we don't see you chug a lug a drink every 8 bars and then have to see you swallow and wipe your mouth on your sleeve, or worse your arm. Most reactors talk over the video to tell us what the performer is doing as if we couldn't see for our selves. They never shut up and watch the video so that they can give their honest opinion. Makes me believe that they have seen the video many time before and have practiced what their going to tell us along with their reaction. Thanks again for keeping it real. Looking forward to your next video.
Amen.
"LONELINESS" - EXACTLY RIGHT. PERFECTLY DESCRIBED. BEAUTIFUL. ALWAYS MAKES ME CRY. THANKS FOR PLAYING IT.
As someone who listened a great deal to her singing and guitar work since the late 90's. Wherever she might be, I think it is in the best of places. She deserves it. I have listened to her voice for 22 years. It ALWAYS brings me to tears. Rest well Eva. Your voice has brought me peace throughout many years.
First, thank you for affording the respectful silence so deserved by Eva Cassidy's awe-inspiring talent. I was astounded when I heard her rendition of "The Tennessee Waltz" because I lacked the imagination to even conceive that it could ever be anything but a trivial classic. Eva brought it to life with her genius, talent, and absolute artistry! If you get a chance, give it a chance.
I want this song, this version played to usher me into me next life. So magical and beautiful and so sung the way it was intended.
Exquisite, superb and downright moving. Almost always brings a tear to my eyes.
It's so cool seeing so many people have the same reaction that I had when first seeing this video, and that's WOW! Musical and emotional perfection
Her guitar play is overlooked ... Just immaculate alll over
Having recorded in studio myself, I can say this is a different experience altogether. She achieved perfection in a live performance!!! Her performance engaged a nightclub audience to the point of being speechless!! I'm in awe of so many aspects of this, but people who have never recorded can't conceptualize this "other thing" that happened here. She takes everybody to eternity and back with the song and performance, but I've seen comments from a few other musicians about what was achieved in that 5 minutes and it's hard to even consider, much less describe in words, what happened!!

Her rendition of Autumn Leaves is perfection too. She was such an amazing artist. It's so strange that people "found her" after her death.
I do love all of Eva's slow emotional songs but there is so much more to this lady - she could sing like Aretha , Ella Fitzgerald ,Janis Joplin , Joan Baez - you name a style and she could bring it - blues ,jazz ,folk ,gospel , country and could even give Ann Wilson a run for her money singing rock - what a gifted artist
Eva was a gift and cancer robbed her of life.
Treasure this, and many more, "Autumn Leaves," "Songbird," "Fields of Gold" I adore, but absolutely anything Eva I 👏🏽.
❤👍🏽
Thank you Lyle for showcasing Eva singing this perfect song. Eva knew she had terminal cancer when she performed this. Perhaps that is where the feeling of the rain falling, and then the rainbow came from. I love every note that she has ever sung, but this will always be my favorite. 💙💙💙
She didn't actually know at this point, although she was beginning to feel some pain in her hip.
@@thegroovetube3247 okay, thank you for the correction.
I think this was recorded in January? She was diagnosed in June? Lost her in November. Or that’s what I heard from another reactor. But still a great loss
@@phillipvanostrand4613 correct
She had a bad cold at the time that the tracks for her record including this were recorded in the Washington DC nightclub. Ever the perfectionist, Eva wasnt happy with her performance here. Could u imagine not happy with this? She sold early recordings from this out of the trunk of her car
...story goes. Best performance of this song ever imo. Also, the guitar and arrangement were virtuoso. Incredible.
I can't stop listening to this. It is so hauntingly beautiful.
Thanks for doing this one. I've heard it countless times before so I knew what was coming but no matter how I try to harden my crusty old jaded cynical heart I weep every time.
RIP Eva Cassidy... If love is patience like the saying goes she exemplified pure love. The way she played and sang with such a sense of patience was just sheer beauty. Thanks for the great raw reaction. If a man has a heart no matter how tough a man he is this raw emotional gift from Eva will show what's at your core.
The ending crack was a result of a cold she was recovering from, but somehow fit the mood so well. I'm so thankful she got to share her beautiful talents before she left this world.
The first time I heard this was at a funeral. Needless to say I cried like a child.
I'm not sure if Eva's fans also know that she was a wonderful artist. I have purchased several of her prints. They are enchanting.
I did not know that!! I’d love to see her pieces of art!!
You really need to hear her version of "The Autumn Leaves" no less affecting than this. She is (or was) simply amazing!
I mentioned elsewhere: Judy Garland sang a song of hope. Eva sang a song of desperation. Two different songs sharing the same words.
Her version of Curtis Mayfield's "People Get Ready" is fabulous. She is the finest interpreter of established songs I've ever heard. Thanks a bunch for this reaction. Really.
Love her voice!
Thank you Llye. You're one of the few class acts out there doing reaction videos. Eva's it's a wonderful world is very nice.
Stunningly communicative with the lyrics and story. An amazing rendition of this "show tune," turning into an actual description of her feelings at that time. It is, in fact, a different song now.
Never cease to cry when I hear her. I especially love her rendition of Fields Of Gold and I Know You By Heart
My 5th reaction in a row of of this live recording of Eva Cassidy doing this song. I can't get enough of it. Never heard of her before tonight. On Wings of Pegasus' version he told of what she went through with cancer berfore she passed. Coincidently, I am having day sugery tomorrow morning to remove a cancerous sore on my back and her singing, playing and passing even though it was 27 years ago, it has blessed me and prepared me in a way only the Lord could have seen fit to bring to me, Amen
Thanks for sharing. Yes Eva becomes a part of our lives instantly. I wonder why so many of these reaction channels, youngns are just starting now to hear Eva.??? Did the SOS just go out - alarm - listen to Eva ? She's been known, I've played/sung her style since 2000. It's like before Eva and after Eva. Never the same. You can't not cry or you're just not getting it.
I've watched so many reactors react to this. Although what they felt was over a range from "hope" to "sadness" to "loneliness" (etc.), the key is, they FELT this. Usually, very strongly. Thank you for letting us see that in you, too. This is a magical duet between her voice and her guitar.
For some reason, that first note just stuns people.
I never get tired of listening to Eva's vocal gift. Remember, this is a live recording at Washington, D.C.'s Blues Alley nightclub. Oh, and Eva had a cold that night. A proud daughter of our DC Metro area here, Eva lives and lives and lives. #RIP Songbird.✝✝✝
Eva stands alone as a musical masterpiece, and we have lost her talent. Just think if she had just another ten, or twenty years of life, what beautiful music she could have brought to the World. Fields of gold is another masterpiece of hers !!!
She has to be leading the angel band. She put so much sadness and longing into that song. It breaks your heart to think her voice was lost to us so soon
Bless your kind heart xx hope you feel better soon x
When she hits those high power notes its just on a whole new level.. If that doesn't pull on the heart strings you aint human.. Her guitar playing is also amazing, so technical.. We were lucky she didn't bow down to the industry otherwise we would not have this.. This was recorded because she didn't sign, it was done as a result of saying no i wont conform..
Eva's version changes the whole feel of the song. My tears are flowing. Loved your reaction. May I suggest "Fields of Gold" and "Songbird?"
Eva remains undefeated. All hearts melt when she sings this
Some music artists are spiritually driven and gifted. Eva blew me away the first time I heard her sing/play "Over the Rainbow" like no artist had ever done before (speachless). I stopped at a music store to buy her CD on my way home from work the day they played it on the radio.
awesome. thanks for allowing us to hear the whole piece front to back uninterrupted and see and share in real-time your full raw emotional response and comments on the whole. we want to see you emote and lose your bearings for 10min just like everyone else.
She is incredible. She OWNS this song, and Sting said, after hearing her sing 'Fields of Gold' it's not his song any more. She OWNS that one too. It's the same for everything she does. 'Falling Leaves'.. WOW! I hope her Mom gets royalties for the times Eva's songs are played. I'm sure she need help. She is very elderly at this point. Your response is perfect. I am in tears. Found Eva several years ago.. she is extraordinary. (This was recorded the year she died)..
Loved her cover of that song ages ago when i stumbled upon it, she was inspiration for another loved artist of mine Katie Melua, and really appreciated your take on this one. I 've seen you reacting on nightwish'es shoemaker song and was quite amazed on your well rounded take on the song and the story around it. Keep up the good work!
This was Jan ‘96. In summer, she discovered her cancer. Passed Nov 2 of ‘96.
Love this....its Over the Rainbow adulting now that its grown up.
Eva can sing anything (kinda of like Chris Stapleton can) and blow you away.
It doesn't get any better than this. Here's another one with a similar emotion by Joni Mitchell. She remade her iconic "Both Sides Now". It's absolutely beautiful. ruclips.net/video/aCnf46boC3I/видео.html
So sad she passed away in 96 She sang this song in i think feb diagnosed with cancer in june and passed i later that same year Such a loss Such a great talent
The best version of this song ever recorded.
You should listen to her version of Autumn Leaves at blues alley. The best and most haunting version I have ever heard.
All other versions you hear, this one you feel.
Absolutely!
Thanks for not interrupting her. So many seem to think they improve something extraordinary by interrupting it to fulfill their stupid egos. It was good to see intelligence and appreciation at work.
I remember Terry Wogan playing this, and her voice stopped me in my tracks. Her voice was mesmerising and it's a song that still has that affect to this day.
Eva had a cold when she did this live performance at Blues Alley, and was my introduction to Eva 10 years after her death. Eva takes the songs you thought you knew, and makes them brand new again as hers. I really don't consider them covers, because they are far from the original tunes. Mick Fleetwood was so impressed with Eva's ability and encouraged her to meet with recording executives. But Eva would not be swayed from doing songs that spoke to her, and doing them her way. When I start feeling bad, I put on her music. Knowing what she had to deal with, listening to her music helps me feel better.
Beautiful reaction, even more poignant when you learn she passes shortly after.Hope she got to be like the happy blue birds .Her voice is other worldly ❤
Hey Lyle, Eva left us with a large body of her work -- enough for a daily dose of Eva. Just saying 😊
Thanks for not interrupting.
So great !pure beauty, such an emotive interpretation!! Wow !!!!!!! THANKS FOR SHARING....Dear friend it is absolutly superb...
EVA you are a genius and an awsome human being...
Really nice reaction... thank you!
Best version I’ve ever heard!
This was a LIVE performance with no overdubs and only her own guitar as accompaniment. Eva's voice was from God, but she worked hard to become a musician. Eva died several months after this performance. Check out her studio recording of "What a Wonderful World". ruclips.net/video/pPAGH0AT-os/видео.html
Eva, brings you the goods, every time.
