As a 70 year old woman, the Wizard of Oz was a yearly t.v. treat when I was a child and I have always loved Judy Garland. But even after listening to this song so often,I never TRULY heard the words until Eva’s version was released and still can’t listen to it without tears…it’s just so beautiful! This video was filmed in January and she died in November. She wasn’t feeling well (cold like symptoms)when she performed this and according to the family/friends that contributed to a book about her,she was so disappointed in how this turned out that she was in tears! Imagine that! A few of her notes dropped off and she felt her performance was not up to par. But knowing that her original melanoma diagnosis and surgery was in 1993,and that she passed just 11 months after this performance in 1996,I assume when she was singing this,she was already full of cancer,though it wouldn’t be until several months later that it was rediscovered. R.I.P. beautiful Eva. And thank you!You have touched many lives! Great reactions,Phil and Sam! So glad you found Eva!❤

One of the best voices of the 20th Century that nobody knew of. The song was written as a Show Tune and Judy Garland sung it as a Show Tune in the movie but Eva Cassidy sung it as almost a haunting Lullaby and for me it's the best version ever as I get emotional every time I listen to it and I've listened to it hundreds of times over the years.

This is a live recording and it is perfect. She was a wonderful guitar player as well. The BBC radio station started playing this song and helped her become known by the public. People called into the radio station and told the dj they had to pull off the road because they were weeping. I can't listen to this while driving either. Eva Cassidy is up there with Karen Carpenter as far as my favorite vocalists.

Terry Wogan on BBC Radio 2 championed her music after his producer Paul Walters put her on the play-list. Other BBC radio shows had played her too (specialized niche programmes) but Terry had the biggest audience of any DJ in the UK at the time on his breakfast show. The genial Irishman got the job done and put Eva where she belongs albeit posthumously.

No Phil, ,this was the live acoustic performance audio that goes with this video. There is also a studio version that she recorded for an album which has a full band. But what you are watching and listening to here is the second night of a two night performance she did at Blues Alley that they recorded audio of. (Only this audio from second night was usable because the first nights performance had a lot of static) Then surprisingly, 4 or 5 years after her death, it was discovered that a friend of hers had shot this VHS video during the performance. So, the were able to sync the audio to the video and this video is what you have. By the way she died several months later after this performance (10 months or so I believe.)

Eva's version of this song is almost always characterized as "heartbreaking". Of course, I don't know what Eva had in mind when she created this guitar and vocal arrangement, but when I hear it, I imagine that it is being told from the perspective of someone who's going through an extraordinarily difficult experience, and is near the end of what they can endure -- yet they maintain a grasp on the hope that things WILL get better one of these days. This, I believe, is why Eva's rendition is so heartbreaking; because the singer is about as low as possible, but clinging to the idea of a brighter future. Brilliant!

“If happy little bluebirds fly above the rainbow, why can’t I,” Such an artful, heart gripping song. After I shared this version from Eva with my mom and brother it was so clear as they stated, we never truly understood the meaning of the lyrics. Eva Cassidy had an amazing gift. RIP sweetheart. I think of the promise of a resurrection to a paradise. No war, disease, corruption or even pain, tears or death. “Death…. The last enemy” Will!! be done away with.

His facial expressions and eyes at the beginning of this video expresses how I felt when hearing this the first time. This is where the performer stops being a singer and becomes an emotive instrument where the voice and the musical instrument become one in telling a story in multi dimensions. She does have an ethereal quality about her performances and your comment on "heaven" is what I have also felt. This version is so much like a life story where she takes us on the journey as she leaves the living and starts to float above herself and then the song quickens as she heads for the lights and to the clouds with bluebirds in heaven.

I heard this song many years ago when the internet was just a puppy. I'm not sure how I stumbled upon it at the time but was tearful as I listened. I still moves me today when I remember the back story as she suffered through her diagnosis. If I remember correctly, she eventually had to be helped onstage and often had to use crutches and canes in order to perform. I had not seen the video until today nor even knew it existed. And so I am tearful again...

Not a studio version that she lip-synced, really her, live at Blues Alley several months before she passed. At the time, she wasn't aware of her cancer, and went very quickly after her diagnosis. This concert was filmed during one weekend, and she really didn't want it published because she had a cold at the time. There were sound issues during the first night of the concert, so they didn't release those songs, but 12 tunes made it to publication, and you can watch the whole evening's performance. Truly a loss to the music world, a jewel lost too soon. 😭

In Britain we were introduced to Eva Cassidy singing Over the Rainbow by a BBC radio presenter called Terry Wogan who had a morning show in the 90’s that was followed by thousands. I can’t remember how he originally got to know of her but it became an immediate hit in our charts. Sadly, that was around the time she passed away but her family made a point of thanking him for publicising her talents because they were then able to release more of her recorded music. ❤

For a good intro to Eva, check out the Nightline segment that was broadcast just a couple of years after she died. For a deeper dive, look at either "Timeless Voice" or "One Night That Changed Everything," both available on KZfaq. It's a fascinating story about a woman who is, I believe, the best female singer ever. On top of her incredible talent, she was very humble and unassuming, but on the other hand, was adamant about refusing to compromise her musical principles just to get recorded. She had no desire to be the latest, greatest diva; she just wanted to sing. BTW, Mick Fleetwood (of Fleetwood Mac fame) used to sit in with her at her gigs. He has also weighed in on her incredible talent.

@@roseoconnor5938 Me too, wish I’d thought of it at the time, but you know how it is. Mam had “Fly Me to the Moon” by Frank Sinatra. The two of us went to see him at the Royal Albert Hall, so it was still a lovely memory I hope you’re doing ok

Another song that Eva did was a song written and performed by Sting ( from the band “The Police”) called Fields of Gold. Again she put a different stripped down version of it. One of my favorites songs after Over The Rainbow. ❤

She was also a great artist. A very talented lady. Fields of Gold, Autumn Leaves,Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain are some favorites. She’s sublime & very talented on the guitar as well.

This was the actual live performance that was recorded at a night club in Washington DC. Recorded with a camcorder. She was sick at the time of this performance and I believe she passed about a year after this live performance.

I heard she recorded that night with a cold and not happy with her voice. Can't confirm that, but her voice is amazing.
