Fields of Gold
Only four years after the originally released single by sting, "Songbird" Eva Cassidy chose to cover this track, which was later released on her multi-platinum-selling album "Songbird" (a major U.K. Hit-Album). Reduced to the very minimum of Eva's voice, this version surely gives you creeps.

How about singing along with the backing music?
Sting's original is far better - I heard someone sing this version on the X-factor (British talent show, like American Idol) and I thought she's screwed up the song but it was just the Eva Cassidy version...

Great voice Eva but no way this baby is Stings!

A pure and innocent yearning in her voice cuts through to my soul every time I hear this song.

Eva's version is one of the top three most pure songs the planet has ever known. Even Sting said that Eva reached a level of emotional movement that he hadn't. If you haven't heard this song, I guarantee that decades from now, you'll remember the first time you heard this song.
