Here is a French song (Vois, i. e. "See", that was adapted in English - under the title Go - and sung by many great performers such as Della Reese, Vikki Carr or Lana Cantrell), performed by the French singer Eva, gifted with a very original, deep and powerful voice.
Born in Berlin, of Russian and Lituanian origin, she goes to Paris at the age of 18 years and discovers the French repertoire in Saint-Germain-des-Prés. She begins singing in cabarets and, in 1964, her first album gets her the Grand Prix of the first record. Eva has sung everywhere, in Europe, Lebanon, Iran, Canada, Africa. In Paris, she has performed in the most famous cabarets and in the greatest theaters (Olympia and Bobino).
In 1972, Eva represented France at the festival of Sopot in Poland where she won 2 prizes, of interpretation and of composition. Recently she has performed in Canada in front of more than 5000 spectators. In her very last album À Marlene ("To Marlene"), made in Quebec in 2005, Eva sings in French, English and German the most beautiful songs of Marlene Dietrich.
Enjoy her powerful performance!
Here is another song in French, Comme les blés (1967).
And here are 2 other songs, in German, Liebelei and Weisst du wie das ist (It's impossible, J'ai le mal de toi), performed live by the beautiful Eva.
