In all honesty, if she was average looking to attractive, she would never had made the news or become a public figure. I thought her performance was very good and I thought it was great how she stunned everyone, but looking from a pure musical standpoint, there are much better out there. I still say good for her though, she showed a lot of people why not to judge a book by it's cover.

Thanks for that trendlover. I didn't discover Eva Cassidy for myself untill after she passed. The woman was and thru her music is still a treasure.
My boyfriend have a cd (Jazz in the city) and Eva Cassidy sings on that cd. That is when I first heard her only last year.
Nothing is what it seems. Susan Boyle it turns out has made many appearances over the years , and simply didn't click those other times. There are many reasons for this current success, not to mention actual talent, but here , as in the markets, trust nothing they tell you, and only HALF OF WHAT YOU SEE. <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/0g9WS3z3jAw&hl=en&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/0g9WS3z3jAw&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>
