I always prefer female singers. The last several years, I have really enjoyed Eva Cassidy, who died far too early.
I got through heavy traffic coming home from a long road trip today listening to her Greatest Hits...wonderful! Once I had heard all the sound twice, I slid in 'Prisoner in Disguise' by Linda Ronstadt, my all-time favorite. I had not heard it in a while and forgot what wonderful 'pips' she had. Unfortunately, she now has Parkinson's and can no longer sing.
I intend to send her a letter of appreciation for how much her gift has enriched my life. I wish I had been able to do the same for Eva Cassidy.
Even though our favorite singers have millions of fans, and they probably won't get to read our letters personally, I feel we owe them a minute of our time to show some appreciation. It might even brighten up one of their days- who knows...
