I'm 45...2024..who keeps coming back here?
❤
53 ….2024 still dropping by every few months
37. Best relaxing and therapy music, giving strenth to go on with life with never ending difficulties. ❤
I'm 69... Yep...here...time after time....
67. Time after time also.
What blows my mind is the fact that this was recorded LIVE, while she had a cold and was sick with cancer, which she died from just a few months later. Truly one of the greatest singers and arrangers of our time.
So sad. I play her CDs all the time. I love her version of Fields Of Gold, but her cover Christine McVie's Songbird from Rumours gets me everytime. Gone too soon!
She’s a transcendent talent.
They knew heaven needed the first song for its soundtrack
The greatest of all time.
She died in November of that year. This was in January. But yes, tragic!
I lived a mile from Blues Alley. One of my colleagues, a fellow teacher, moonlighted there as a bartender. Every day she would tell me, "You have to come by and hear this extraordinary woman; she has the most amazing voice I've ever heard. Please come!" Busy year. Busy woman. To my lasting chagrin, I did not. That extraordinary singer was, of course, Eva and she died that year from cancer. So when I hear her sing, I ache with the loss of her and the lost opportunities I squandered. I tell my students this story and urge them to never turn down an invitation to hear a writer, singer, or artist share their work. Time is fleeting and we get only a few such golden opportunities. I'm playing this for them today.
❤
História incrível a sua, incrível e triste. Todas as vezes que assisto um vídeo dela a tristeza me aflige. Como els seria hoje????
It is so true.
Teachers always learn the best lessons and then teach them to many others who become wise and grateful to them for the rest of their lives.
My little sister was 57, we were in her driveway and I played this for her from my truck, I told her the story of Eva, Heather was still scared of the days ahead, we both cried and hugged for the last time, a few months later I said goodbye for the last time as we celebrated her short life, I just want her to know that she was loved and missed very much by all of us who have had the pleasure of sharing the time we had with her on this earth..

Sometimes, you wander through You Tube and there's a moment of grace . This is one of these .
I was just thinking the same x
How beautifully said .. Namaste.
Beautifully said.
Totally captivating and drills down into your soul - God gifted she was
The most amazing voice EVER!
Who here still listens to Eva here in 2020? Gone but never her angelic voice will never be forgotten..
mckennamagoo How can I NOT listen this angel? Better question...
Listening. With tears streaming.

It's impossible to listen to Eva Cassidy and not shed a tear or two.
True story!
This beautiful woman's voice is like medicine for the soul. I can only imagine a better place needed her more than we did.
Played this at Mums funeral...I agree with you.
Omg, you never lied. I’m crying right now🥺🥺🥺🥺
I was thinking the same exact thing.
Now this is music!
Rest Easy Eva Cassidy, u will never be forgotten.
Anyone else listening?
Listening because this song makes me think of my nan and remember her.
I am
You bet
Me too.
Yes, I am too 7/28/22
When this was recorded Eva had 10 months left to live.
She will not be forgotten.
I didn't know that :( that's unbelievably sad
RIP
***** I don't mean to offend you. I hope you and your God find happiness. Eva sure didn't
runninginsept It's not a matter of owing anybody anything. At a certain point, you have to ask, if he's real and he allows people to go through this crap and worse, why ARE you following him?
askaflamininja If God is as all-knowing and omniscient as we make him out to be, what makes you think he OWES you anything - much less a "good" or "decent" life?
Get your head out of your ass. Unlike you, god is responsible for the world. If he thought all suffering was unfair and needless, life will not exist, and he would not be all-knowing. He knows all, and you do not, as is evidenced by the fact that you can't even grasp a concept this simple.
I swear my heart breaks a little each time I hear her sing.
💯💔same
You too huh....?
Im with you WOW there are Angels on earth but she left us way too soon!
same....
I couldn't of said it any better.
The lyrics from Cyndi Lauper and Rob Hyman are incredible, but it is Eva who takes us on a journey that Cyndi could not. This song makes you a participant and not a listener. Outstanding.
No Lauper is ace as well.
Listen to Miles Davis trumpet version.
Eva's versions are almost identical to the originals, especially Who Knows Where the Time Goes. They're not like All Along the Watchtower or With a Little Help from my Friends.
I think you're wrong.... Cindy Lauper = Eva Cassidy... In this song. Cindy is huge...Your advice came that a dead woman, rest in peace little Angel, can't be beaten...
@@williamthelast1 Cindi sings her original so very well, but it is at such a fast tempo it takes all the meaning away. Eva's tempo creates a special mood. For that reason alone it is better. Oh and BTW it is Cindi with an i.
Stop. Both versions are amazing
I'm 71...it's 2024...just adore her voice ❤
In 2024...I'm here...in about 70 days I will be 70 years...
I am unlikely to see 2025, I'll pass on your lovely messages to Eva.
I just got turned on to Eva by a friend, I am 67 years old and have loved music all my life, and without a doubt this is probably the purest voice I have ever heard.
Try listening to Sissel. Different style but what a voice. May be the best I’ve ever heard and I’m also 67.
R I P beautiful voice
Better late than never, James Todd. Welcome to pure joy! :)
I wonder where this beautiful voice is singing now.
@@TonyEnglandUK : Somewhere over the rainbow, I suppose...
8 million views. ❤️ This world misses you, Eva.
Over 9 million now...and Covid has us locked in our houses. Grateful because it allowed me to discover Eva.
@@lucybrenton149 prolly listened to it 9 million times myself. Lol
Elizabeth W what happend to her
@@stowelcooper5528 She died of melanoma at 33 years old. Take a few minutes and read her Wikipedia page. I did. It’s inspirational and sad at the same time.
Over 10 million 2/18/21
2024 makes me sad Eva is not here, only in eternity.
She will be here as long as we are listening to her, time after time...
She will be in The Kingdom for Eternity. She did not give her soul over for fame. She’ll be worshipping her Creator with this voice He gave her.
Same. I cry for her listening to this song.
her voice is insaneeee i cant get over it :')
The fact that eva knew that she only had 10 months left on this earth in this video and she still managed to sing this song so flawlessly and effortlessly is beyond amazing
I just found this channel, I didn’t realize this was back in the 90’s…My heart breaks but glad to have heard her.
Every day…. 🙂✌️❤️🌎😎
THAT MIGHT BE THE EXACT REASON WHY SHE DID IT SO WELL, SHE WANTED TO LAST IT FOREVER!
She didn't know she was sick during this performance
Indeed a soul full of grace…
Blessing all who really…… hear her voice…
Gone to soon….💔
Eva sung this song to its fullest potential; the way it was meant to be sung. Can't stop crying 😥
Me too...sob sob..x pure musical genius...and so beautiful!
Magical🌠✨🧚💎😢
She makes me cry too.
@MAD GRUMPYMAN For a mad grumpyman it's very obvious you have a targeted interpretation of music especially voice. You expressed her instrument to perfection. HER VOICE PITCH is flawless and has the ability to give true musical lovers the enjoyment of feeling every note flow through ones body like a symphony.
@MAD GRUMPYMAN Yes you are rare and feel music tone voice lyric each instrument run through my body. When I heard her sing I was in a state of amazement. I don't know very many people that can feel music in their body and I absolutely loved your description. Thank you for the compliment ☺ 🌠
2020 anyone still here to listen?
Just discovered this. So yes, definitely still listening.
Yes. I listen to her daily
I have to listen to this song to fall asleep. I'm not saying it's boring but i just go to sleep easily while listening to it
yes still listening
New 4ever fan. Absolutely beautiful.
She would have been 60 today. Happy Birthday, angel
2024-I’m soon to be 71. What a gem!
This is one of the rarest times when the cover is just better than the original. Cindy Lauper was great but this song was clearly made for Eva Cassidy...one of the purest vocals I've ever heard. R.I.P, girl.
Hedon couldn't agree more. the song no longer belongs to cyndi.
Hedon No need to compare to the original. This is a fucking amazing piece of art. Eva's music has changed my life. She was taken from us too soon. She deserved better.
Hedon She has a better voice than Cyndi Lauper (though not as original), but don't try to say a song was made for someone that didn't write it. It's Cyndi's song. The end.
Jenny Starr who said it isn't Cyndy's song? I did admitted that. All i said was since Eva sang the song way better than Cyndy, it means the song is better suited for Eva's voice and she owned it.
Hedon Odds are someone will always be able to sing the song better, lots of people have amazing voices, fewer can write amazing songs.
I prefer Eva's version, but saying it was made for her is doing a disservice to Cyndi.
Personally just wouldn't bother comparing, it's all down to personal preference.
This stopped me dead in my tracks....in the midst of a world of chaos there are moments of order and majestic beauty that remind us there is amazing goodness all around us. Autumn leaves and this song cut through the noise and holds the soul tightly.
So perfectly and beautifully said 💕
I luv it when a guy says things like that. They usually don't bc of being a "man".. my husband is about as deep and sentimental as a breadstick. So this guy Bryan whoever his other half is I bet she's treated good by him. Never change bruh🤗💞💞
@@mlpjbjformerlyreaper3149 i have no fear of that. Vulnerability is braver than pretending you have it figured out. :)
Have you ever heard her sing Songbird I break down and cry everytime I listen nothing touches my heart as much as her singing this song
@@dwarankie i did crazy great. I dont do many covers in my shows...my thought is it has to be strikingly different. She amazing at that.
Eva Cassidy: improving the mental health of millions thru the healing power of her immortal voice and beautiful playing for 30+ years now.
Smiles, so so beautiful Ellen, feels really great listening, how are you doing? 🌺 😊
This song and Eva’s performance is incredible, I listen every night and I know it will break me up reason my wife passed away just before Christmas 2022 she was in hospital for eleven weeks on a real rollercoaster of ups and downs i was with her everyday during the illness 10/12 hours a day fortunately as some people didn’t have that option during covid ,every night she would say go now you must be tired then add move the curtains so I can see the clock and don’t be late tomorrow we would kiss good night and I would leave her lying in that hospital bed, it wasn’t until 48 hours before she passed away she whispered don’t leave me tonight,I stayed by her side until the very end which was very surreal and peaceful that moment was the end of our 57 years together, I miss her so much life is too short but beautiful.
God bless you. I lost my wife August 8th, 2021. She was my world.
I understand. ❤
Me2, sorry for your loss.
William,I
am made speechless by your words and your love,
@william, that's such a touching story, my condolences to you and your family. So Sad 😭 and Heartbreaking 💔
Your story is one reason why I still believe in true love ❤️ I have someone I'm becoming quite fond of. Lord willing our bond will become as beautiful as yours. God bless you William 🙏 Prayers for Jesus' peace and comfort to surround you. Amen and praise God.
Anyone who doesn't get emotional while listening to Eva cassidy clearly has no soul. What an incredible talent taken far to young.
Nino Romanazzi once or twice a week I bring Eva up on RUclips. Always a tear and more will fall: “ time after time “.
Her singing makes me full of emotions.......
Kate Wolf also taken too early.
What happened to her??
@@lisahess1373 Eva died of cancer
Finally, a cover that reduces it down to a pure version, so many people oversing or put in random dynamics, but she nails everything here and makes changes in places that are appropriate and tasteful. This is how you cover a song
2024….she’s one of my all time favorites.
She was an angel who was sent on Earth to cure our souls.
Couldn't be said any better
Incarnated Angel
She wss
Always be remembered beats any girl on the charts
Yes.God could not live without her.
Something's wrong here: She is absolutely perfect. Apart from her singing the flawless guitar playing is incredible. She really knew how to handle that instrument. I could go on and on ... Fact is, it's 2021 and she makes me so happy! I'm very grateful.
i agree today Feb 5, 2021 just found this. i am even more blessed.
I just found this today. She is an angel.
Read up a bit on her. I kid you not she was mostly scared to have people hear her sing live because she thought they would think she was bad. Anxiety and performing is tough. One crowd may love you and the other may have a different demographic and the same performance will tank. I consider this one of the top 5 live performances of all time. Look up 1977 eagles in DC for reference. It’s probably the first and last time randy enjoyed singing take it to the limit
Me too!
Amazing performance....sublime
Searched for "Time after Time" because I needed a lullaby before bed after a very long hard day. This song always resonated with me ever since I first heard it back in high school when it was first on the radio. Not a big Cindy Lauper fan but she wrote a gem and sang it well. But then I listened to this. Never heard of Eva Cassidy before.
Wow. Sublime doesn't begin to describe this performance. This is so intimate, so powerful, so incredibly moving. There's nothing like a person singing alone with an acoustic guitar to reveal what's in their heart and soul...Eva's is absolutely bottomless. Such a tender and elegant touch on the guitar and a voice of pure gold. The emotion and expressiveness is absolutely off the charts. This is as good a performance as I've ever seen anywhere, hands down.
I read a little about Eva today, what a tragic story. What a sweet gentle soul. Thank you Eva.
Have you heard her versions of Songbird and Fields of Gold?
Back in the day I used to be a professional chess player and I would look at chess for hours on end with Rumours by Fleetwood Mac on repeat - it just really helped me to think and be creative. A couple of years ago I discovered Eva Cassidy and her version of Songbird - it just completely blew me away - what a hauntingly beautiful voice she has - there is nothing quite like it.
Her voice is so pure, strong, and beautiful.
And it comes right out of the core of her being.
Listen to any of the songs she performed, and
you will find yourself in tears.
Eva, you are sorely missed.
Truly great singer...
So incredibly beautiful and emotionally powerful.
There's Aretha and this woman...everyone else get in line behind. I've been a musician for 47 years....the last 30 in Nashville as a picker and recording engineer. I've recorded dozens of the best singers music has to offer...this woman was so far out in front of the pack it's almost unfathomable. Her mastery of her vocal instrument was amazing.
BloozeDaddy
Agreed!!!
Oh, that's a tough argument. I also have a musical background, lesser than you do. Mostly I was a local picker, songwriter and family music teacher but that doesn't matter other than to say I didn't just roll in off the street, I started playing in 1965. Back to Eva... So I would say you have to say a trained musician or self taught has to be a catagory of separation. As well as Eva wasn't her own songwriter. And then there is music business men, not woman ran things, decided fates. And men mostly were in the band, made decisions. For example, had times been different, Emmylou probably would have replaced Gram in the Byrds and not ended up Gram's "girl singer"? What I am trying to say is time and place and training are part of the equation. You definitely made a fine argument for future discussion. Eva is pure therapy for all hearts.
"Almost unfathomable." I think you summed it up right there. It wasn't mastery per se, but it was, but it wasn't. Eva's genius was in between the notes.
sure you did
@@melodyscamman244 SHE MIGHT NOT HAVE BEEN A SONGWRITER.....BUT SHE MADE EVERY COVER TOTALLY HER OWN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
January 2020. Her interpretations of classics are classics in their own right. An angel's voice. Fleetwood called her pure. He was right.
Her versions are better interpretations of the song than the originals. Linda Ronstadt had the same ability to take a song to another level
You left us too soon, Eva... Thank you for your gift.
@@robinhosleftfoot
Thats a matter of perspective, Im here listening because what she did is so beautiful, every song she touches is incredible, but all her best bits are other peoples songs. I love Eva but the untrained, slightly gritty version by the writer Cindy Lauper, is equally as good, and depending on my mood, sometimes better, there is more than a beautiful voice.
@@jimallen9442 👍
@@jimallen9442 I find it absolutely absurd that one has to have written a song for a performance to be judge in the top echelon. Such a sad misguided arbitrary qualification.
This is literally what perfection sounds like. This live version is even better then the recorded version Eva did. It literally blows my mind that this woman never had her big time moment in life. She’s literally timeless as an entertainer and I always some how find myself coming back to listen to her time after time.
2023 and thats a soundtrack of my metalhead life. They say: "when you happy you enjoy the music when you sad you understand the lyrics"
Her voice cures my soul.
+Vlad Po And reminds me why God gave me one.
+Vlad Po Love your comment!
+NorthWest Gaming a blind said no such thing as sun...
+NorthWest Gaming Instead of wasting your life gaming kid, try going to Church.
+Vlad Po Same with me.
She's awesome..
Strange how she is seldom mentioned as one of the greatest female vocalists.
Great she was...commercial she wasn't...money talks.
They couldn’t make money on her so they look elsewhere for 💰 !
Not by those who have heard her sing.
@@MrJOHNMICHAELVEGA I don't understand why not. She's incredibly talented.
When God blesses someone with talent at Eva's level, I pray they don't sell their soul just like Eva didn't.
2023 and Eva still lives in our hearts❤
My baby girl was born two days ago to this song. Her name? Cassidy ❤❤
Beautiful
I last listened to this on November 11th, the night before my wifes funeral. Christine picked me up so many times and I needed to remember not to fall down for one more day.
I was snow plowing this past winter was about 22 hours in. Listening to a local college radio station this beautiful voice cam on the radio. I had to pull over and collect myself. Thank you Eva. That is what music is suppose to do.
James T Thanks for sharing that James. I feel the same every time I hear her voice.
James T Me, too. We kept her music and legacy going in the music rooms of paltalk. She must surely be in GODS HOLY CHOIR now. She brings me to tears every time I hear her.
Theresa Bruce God killed her with cancer
mrbouncelol I dont believe in god either for allowing the death of an angel
mrbouncelol if god exists would he allow this?..
Just found her today cant believe I missed out on a talent like her till today. Her voice gives me goosebumps and brings a tear to my eye and I think I saw a comment say she's passed R.I.P. Eva you are so missed and I just found you🙁😞
It's astounding to me that she didn't become famous until after her death. I think maybe if she had lived, she would've made it big. Such a huge talent.
Every song I've heard her sing is as close to perfect as you can get. She always put her soul into it. This is no exception. I'm so glad she was with us even though she left too soon.
Eva's voice seemed to sing for everyone.
She had an amazing ability to create space through her genius timing. Listen to her use of vocally coming in on upbeats vs. downbeats, and drawing out space in between but always landing where it matters most. You can't teach that.
Yes this perfectly encapsulates her sonic capabilities
Beautifully said!
This 👏
Well said. Memorably said.
One of the single purest voices I have ever heard. Gone way too soon.
Agreed
@ Ken: Agree!
Singing with the angels now!
"Those who are loved by the Gods are taken early".
@Mike RL watch yankee arnold 4 minute yt vid on being saved - you'll see eva again if you do
her voice was just so pure
Miss Jones are you strict
@@jogiedhesi2021 This isn't the place.
Is.
As a parent.. I want this song to be played at my funeral for the comfort of my children.
I feel like she is really saying this to me
The ability to break your heart,simply by singing a song, is a rare genius. I remember listening and enjoying this song in the 90’s. Eva uplifts the song to a heartbreaking, unbelievable emotional level.
As we know, this was performed a bit less than a year before she passed away at a far too young 33. I first became
aware of her in 1998. Just an incredible songstress. Her voice always made me think that, deep down inside, she
knew she was not long for this earth. It’s that touch of melancholy you hear in everything she sings. It’s there. I do
think she knew. God bless her for giving us what she did, and rest easy, Eva.
You have expressed perfectly what I have often felt about Eva.
Did she know she was “Terminal” during this performance?
Russell Brown ~ She was not well at this point, at least as I remember it, but may not have been aware she had terminal cancer. At least, she had not been
officially informed. But when you hear and watch her live “Over The Rainbow,” it’s impossible not to feel she was already on another trajectory and that
she somehow knew that. It is so other worldly and beautiful, it’s as if she were tapping into that other layer of consciousness. But that’s just me ...
Larry Power Well said. I was just curious.
Lying in my bed I hear the clock tick and think of you
Turning in circles confusion is nothing new
Flashback to warm nights
Almost left behind
Suitcase of memories,
Time after sometimes you picture me
I'm walking too far ahead
You're calling to me, I can't hear what you have said
And you say go slow
I've fallen behind
The second hand unwinds
If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you I'll be waiting
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you I'll be waiting
Time after time
Time after time
After your picture fades and darkness has turned to gray
Watching through windows I'm wondering
If you're okay
And you say go slow
I've fallen behind
The drum beats out of time
If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you I'll be waiting
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you I'll be waiting
Time after time
Time after time
Mmm, time after time
Ooh, time after time
Time after time
After your picture fades and darkness hás turnesd tô Gray...help
Thanks a Lot!
Not only does she have a beautiful voice with nice control, what she does with the guitar is brilliant too.
2021 and she still brings tears. A voice that I will never forget..
I tear up every time I listen to her. Such an amazing individual. RIP. Voice of an angel
You are so right! She just gets to your heart and soul and brings those feelings out of you that you thought you had forgotten. Bittersweet.
u will but your descendants will hear it on your funeral making it live on
She came from heaven and to heaven she returned .... ♥️
💞💞💞singing still!!!
yes she sure did
Bullshit
Chills everytime I hear Eva like no other from any performer.
The only flaw is that it ends.
I was caught off guard by a singer who died 26 years ago. It is gut wrenching to learn that she died at her prime. It's 1 AM, and I'm listening to Fields of Gold, and this...
My goodness this is the most beautiful sound I’ve heard in a long long time. Crying
Beautiful cover
Hey dont cry my dear peace be with you always ✌🕊🙏
One of the most painful aspects of life is being ALIVE when amazing people you care about die. That grief cannot be described or talked about in any way that gives justice to the depth of the experience. But music helps, especially when it's performed by someone as amazing Eva Cassidy was.
sorry for your loss :(

I went to Walmart today, and looked for her
cd,and could not find it. when I heard her
voice I knew she was the most talented
female vocalist I have ever heard. such a shame. she will always be my supper
star.
Eva's got my heart.
Cannot agree with you more. Beautifully said.
I never get tired of listening to her authentic one of a kind voice. So heartfelt❤️
She breaks my heart and heals it at the same time.
she really puts TV talent show contestants in their place... no theatre, no production, no stupid dance routines, she just gon stage and sang the song, and that's all she needed to do
And that's exactly how it should be!
One word: TALENT
This is how a song is sung, you just feel her heart shine through~~
rawlinsonboy ABSOLUTELY TRUE!!🙏👋♥️🇦🇺
**yawn** AND GET OFF MY LAWN!!!
This is the best rendition, hands down.
Just think, one take live, no studio, no redos. Just pure talent.
I saw this version on a funeral scene in Smallville! A friggin beautiful tear jerking performance
I hope those people who witnessed this know how lucky they are. Beautiful
what a loss. For all of us still here.
She's unreal. Devastating.

Thousand years
Her death came from Gad
Incredible soul... 33 yo and unbelievable control of the voice. Irreparable loss that cancer made for the musicality
Surfing RUclips and this is where my search ended...oh, my, this came to me like a ray of light on a dark day.
been in quarantine for almost 2wks. somehow i feel “ lucky” bc i nvr would’ve found this song or your genuinely kind comment . plz stay safe
It’s 11/2023 and I’m listening to this and feeling goosebumps all over my arms and back. I don’t even know how I ended up here in RUclips but it’s a wonderful end to a stressful day. She melts all the ugliness from war news, problems at work, and general negativity away. Thank you, Eva dear, rest in peace.
2022! In love with this version! Sounds like angel's performing...
Fantastic
Played Time after time at my daughters funeral last month. Still haunts me when I hear Eva sing it.
Robin Russey God 😔 Sorry to hear that be strong
Sorry for your loss. Rest in peace, I hope good memories and time r soothing some of the pain.
That is unbearably sad....
Nothing can be said by anyone to make you feel ok. I have two daughters myself. 50 year old man, I am in tears for your loss. Try to survive.
Sorry for your loss and the pain and heartache your going through, my heart sunk reading your comment. Thoughts are with you my friend, god bless. X
She's got one of the most beautiful and healing voices I've ever heard. She sits, plays her guitar and singing. SImple. No gimmicks. Just purely beautiful.
Cure for everybody and everything is this woman's voice!
She was, unfortunately, unknown to me until this night. I am mesmerized. I am speechless. I am weeping.
I keep thinking I've heard the best Eva Cassidy song.
Then i hear another.
Kevin E Couldn't agree more, Kevin!
exactly.
Kevin E Eva is perfection

Truly the voice of an angel.
"If you're lost, you can look and you will find me.. Time after time"
This is so true about your music, Eva. Rest in Peace. What a phenomenal talent.
2024 and I still love her voice.
1/6/2022 , love her so much. As a musician myself, this is timeless.. may she forever live on through her music, voice, wonderful spirit. Xoxo Eva🥰
Eva Cassisy must be the closest we ever get to an angel.
Like the pastor at her funeral,"God brought Eva to heaven to teach the Angels to sing!"
Besides Katie Melua
That is true, because angels do not exist.
I find myself coming back to this video off and on over the years....and I cry uncontrollably every single time. It’s so beautiful and so sad.
Hi there hows your day been hope your safe and well my dear peace be with you always ✌🕊🙏
August 2022. Always. Eternal. Immortal. 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
I have just somehow only discovered this version of this song today.. i am blown away by her stunningly beautiful voice, so soothing for the soul ❤️
Are you kidding me? Absolutely brilliant!! Thankfully we have her recordings. What a talent.
Thank God the internet allows us to hear music by artists without all the political b.s. of the industry. What a rare talent and beautiful voice.
+Patricia Serendipity so does my radio. I just put it on a station with 24/7 music. >;)
Have to add: just turn off the damn tell lie vision, and dont read them propaganda-papers. Nothing news in them papers, might as well use it as toiletpaper or kindle for the fire.
+Patricia Serendipity
my words !love
+Patricia Serendipity Beautiful beautiful beauty indeed.
I like the way you talk.
Patricia Serendipity so lovely blessed is her voice
God blessed her with her beautiful voice and took her way too soon but her music and voice will live forever. Just magical.
2022, Eva is still teaching us. My third song learned on the guitar through her music. thank you Eva.
Of course her singing is entirely awesome, but her guitar work is magnificent as well.
So much beauty comes effortlessly from her. Sleep well, beautiful lady, we're still appreciating you down here.
Valion brilliant guitar work, brilliant everything.
I think of all the practice she must have put in. It's one thing to sing like that but to also play so competently is just outstanding.
Definitely. The timing, picking, and intricacies in every song are astounding.
Kudos to you for noticing that. It's flawless.
Proof that musical genius doesn't require outlandish makeup and costumes, or glitzy, glamorous production.
Her voice, her intonation, her phrasing - musical perfection.
Found this song through Smallville of all things when I was a teenager. Still listening. Incredible performance, incredible lady. Taken before her time.
So did I
Had this version played at our wedding for our first dance...16 years ago.
Just an unreal connection between instrument and angelic voice. This woman was an angel full stop.
This is the best version of this song - no contest. She's so flawless. I never had the privilege of seeing her live, so I'm grateful she recorded her live sessions. Eva Cassidy is on my list of top 5 all time singers/songwriters .... in no particular order because I could never choose.
Perfect example of when a cover is better than the origional. To me this IS THIS SONG
Come on man, don't be absolute... I guess you'd find ANY melancholic ACOUSTIC version of ANY GREAT song better than the original.
For example, I bet you would say the same for the acoustic version of "Everlong" (by Grohl himself).
There are GREAT songs, with GREAT covers (acoustic or not). But no need to say that the one is BETTER than the other. It's just different versions. Having a personal preference, yes, of course, but no need to diminish the value of the originals.
Hearing her and watching the video causes me to weep. Another soul taken far too soon, rest in peace Eva, thank you so much.
When Eva did a song, she owned it, completely owned it and made it epic
Absolutely blown away...So incredibly beautiful. Somehow I had missed this angel up until now. Her voice was legendary. This is one of my very favorite songs of all time, and to hear it done like this is an incredible treasure. What a treasure this lady was :(
Gee...thanks Sean ...it's beautiful, really...but I wanna cry now :(

I was melancholy for days after hearing her story but I then thought that I should feel joy for having the privilege of hearing that splendid voice. I'm working on it.
I was very sad too but I later realised that she will live forever and her voice will never leave heart. once you hear it, you will never let it go.
Amazing...
Just ‘found’ Eva Cassidy about a month ago and I listen to her almost everyday, if time permits, especially before sleep. Her voice is quite melodic. It soothes and calms me. So beautiful. Gone too soon…
I found Eva, in 2020. She'll be with me forever!
"The Voice of An Angel" is generally an overused phrase but not in Eva's case. She was also a great guitarist.
What a nice thing to say
My gawd, this is still my favorite rendition of this song. I remember falling in love with it as a teenager in the 90s. She really pierces your soul with this song. Thank you, Eva! And thank you to the one who uploaded this video!
Liebe Eva. Du hast grosse Lieder grösser gemacht. Habe schon manche Träne vergossen. Danke. RIP Eva❤
In my lovely world of Australia, I can't stop playing her sublime voice to regret the loss of this brilliant talent, but mostly to rejoice in her glorious talent...🥰💙💙💙👏👏👏
Indeed what a beautiful voice..
Smiles, hi Linda 🌺 😊
A beautiful sand castle that appeared on the shore and vanished with the tide
Except she never will vanish thanks to this recording
i've already cried 12 times, watching this.. this comment made it a bakers dozen.
so sad
Tom Rei so beautiful and sad
Beautiful description, Tom.
She just took me to a place that made me cry, but I needed to go there.
