OMG! I am so glad there are other people who know who Eva Cassidy is. biggrin.gif What a wonderful voice she had. She left this world way to soon.
I love her album Songbird. The song Songbird was on the movie soundtrack of Love Actually, it was perfect for the scene they chose it for.
I also have the album she did with Chuck Brown called Other Side, she does alot of old standards on that one. I love that one to. smile.gif

I don't listen to her all that much...but I looooove "Fields of Gold".

Michelle Kwan skated to that song before too...so that just makes it even better in my book biggrin.gif

Possibly one of the best cover songs by any artist. Supposedly Sting was brought to tears when he heard her sing his classic song.
"But when it ends and while it ends, something comes, after so much rage, persistence, obstinacy, extravagance; something entirely unexpected and touching in its mildness and goodness. With the motif passed through many vicissitudes, which takes leave and so doing becomes itself entirely leave-taking, a parting wave and call, with this D G G occurs a slight change, it experiences a small melodic expansion. After an introductory C, it puts a C sharp before the D. . .and this added C Sharp is the most moving, consolatory, pathetically reconciling thing in the world. It is like having one's hair or cheek stroked, lovingly, understandingly, like a deep and silent farewell look. . . . " (Mann: 55).

^

i was in borders and they played 'fields of gold' too. and somehow you'd think that someone with a voice like her, would be singing up there like an angel. its eerie-ly amazing. her voice sings to YOU, directly. and puts you into this extremely soft feeling inside.
wood!
