JULIE COVINGTON ON EVITA

To answer the person below, sadly Julie suffered with some mental-health issues and was a very reluctant performer and semi-reclusive. This is why she didn't do "more" and why she turned down the stage role. So sadly we were denied seeing her do more roles on TV etc - her own choice.

Thanks for the update .

This song has been covered way to much. Most covers sound good.

But this one, really, touches your soul in every way. The emotion, the drama.. it's just perfection. ( yes normally perfection is boring, but not this one ).

This song, in my opinion, doesn't reflect just her story. But it reflects stories from alot of people.

This song is THE MOST legendary song ever.

I love this song, and her version is the only one that I listen to!

This is still the best version. I get goose bumps just listening to Julie.

I couldn't remember how many time I had listened to this song singing by Julie covington in 1976. The original is always the best, so she's the best.

@ngaitom09 - the original is not "always the best", far from it, but JC really does nail this completely.

Remember this being produced at Olympic Studios in Barnes, london..she is the best vocalist ever singing this song!!

the only version:::::::::::::::

Julie Covington version excels the best
