One of the recipes from the Eva Cassidy cookbook: Take a whole song that you have never heard before, add a pinch of Eva's special arranging, a cupful of Eva's special singing, and saute it slowly until you began to cry. Continue this until there is only the sound of your own sobbing. Repeat this until you are ready to face the world.
The pure perfection of her voice and her beautiful spirit still make me cry - can't help it. And music is supposed to move you. That is the power of the medium, as it's universal. But Eva? I weep for what should have been a long and amazing career and thousands more songs for us to have cherished from this unique artist. Instead, we have a precious few albums from someone who is a musical treasure. Bless Eva in heaven. An angel forever
Sooo beautifully sung and played...Rest in peace Eva. Thank you for leaving such beautiful memories...your songs and great musicianship. Thank you to your family for sharing you to us lowly people....If I remember correctly, she was so shy that she would rather sing with her back facing the audience............God Bless you.
it must mean so much to her family to know that so many people still listen to her music and miss her. I sing right along with her! I hope her soul is reborn into another so that we may one day hear that voice again!
She is indeed God's creation .nothing else can explain such purity. This transcends borders and speaks emotively to all. Iv'e given up fighting back tears -who said big boys don't cry
we read about different musicians and the superlatives that are used to describe them. the difference is, in eva's case...they apply. the voice of an angel, indeed.
This is a beautiful Version of Songwriter Alison Krauss's Song "If I Give My Heart" by Eva.....
As always Eva puts her own signature on her interpretation of this wonderful romantic Song using the fiddle to give it a little Country & Western sound...but Eva's angel like voice also reflects a little sadness as she performs it like no other.....
It's just like she were sitting across the room singing just to me....Eva does a great job on this song--and her brother Dan plays a terrific job accomanying on the violin.
people have said to me why do i listen to eva they say they like her voice but because she sings some sad songs. i appreciate evas voice the words and it sort of soothes my soul,from everything she sings it doesnt mean iam gonna just sit and cry she makes me smile hervoice is like sunshine on a spring morning to me and she continues to inspire me to to be a better artist every day in heaven we shall meet eva xxjames
@JAY2BFRANK Eva is so many different things to different people. I get very emotional when I listen to her sing. Not because her singing or her music makes me sad, but because the beauty and purity in her voice is so moving that I cry with amazement and happiness, that's what it is. - she inspires me on a daily basis. If I am feeling down or stressed, I put on an Eva CD, get on the couch and close my eyes. I feel instantly healed....I find her voice very soothing
I just met Eva and I will be in mourning everytime I pick up my guitar...what a loss of amazing talent and beauty...I am speechless...

Eva's brother, Dan Cassidy ?, has the same sort of judgement and touch with the violin as his sister has with her guitar.

While Alison Krauss did record this song, it was actually written by songwriter and bass player John Pennell.
