    Eva Cassidy



    If you've never heard her sing, you've been missing one of the most beautiful voices to grace our modern world...and one of music's most tragic stories...


    "Over the Rainbow" is the song that made Eva famous half a decade after her death.


    ​ "Waly Waly" is my own favorite, but I have an audiophile's dream of a stereo system that lets me appreciate every wonderful nuance of her voice. ​

    Here's the story of Eva Cassidy...

    Check out this Nightline Report ​ Once you've appreciated her voice, you may want to come back to this...It's one of the few poems I've scribed in recent times...

    Eva​


    Single, small, shyly shining star You drifted through dark firmaments Here and then too soon gone, ​

    but your voice

    ​Fresh as morning’s dew Beautiful as angel’s dreams,

    With seeming effortless perfection Crystal clear cascades of expression For all to hear, hold dear, keep near

    sings still

    and so

    Within your gentle genius Our soul’s caresses.
