Eva Performs--Autumn Leaves



"I miss you...most of all...my darling, when autumn leaves start to fall... "

Eva Cassidy ranks right there at the top of my favorite singer/songwriters. She lost her battle to cancer in 1996 at 33 years old so the precious few albums she left behind will have to quench my love for her music.

This song happens to combine two of my favorite things...Eva's heavenly voice and lyrics about my favorite season... autumn.

Thank you! As you know, I too am a huge fan of Eva's talent. But I have never seen video footage before. It was a blessing for my morning; for a moment I was lost in her song, oblivious to all around me, even the steaming cup of black coffee clutched between my fingers.
