Eva Cassidy

No doubt, she is one of my faves, voice of an angel. It's rare gift when a cover version of a song ends up being equal to or better than the original. Not to take away from Sting the songwriter, this version of Fields of Gold has yet to be surpassed, imo.

Wow! Eva Cassidy's belated journey is amazing. Thanks, for sharing Minerva and Timótheos. Her voice is hauntingly beautiful and her phrasing is so good I think. And she also plays guitar just as well. Extraordinary, what a loss for us. :(

I just had to listen to more so here's another one:

gdpetti,

I just adjusted your embed code. Grace proves that more new talent is born everyday. She writes her own songs and has a great voice. Reminds me of Adele. :)

Couldn't help myself...wish I could have heard her live.

I agree. She had such a talent for covering songs.

Eva's version of Buffy Sainte-Marie's "Tall Trees in Georgia" is amazing.
