| | SoundStage! Eva Cassidy - American Tune |
| | The audio quality of this CD varies from track to track, but it is acceptable considering the source material for the recordings. | | | American Tune is made up of a mixture of demos and live performances that are unpolished, yet they still reveal glimpses of Ms. | | | The vocals sometimes have an indistinct and diffuse quality and can also sound a little hollow on tracks such as "Yesterday" and "American Tune." Many of the arrangements are quite simple, consisting of just one or two guitars or piano, and do not exhibit much of a soundstage. |

| | Finally I found it (about American Tune) - |
| | American Tune is one of his best songs and we still think that mainly it is his song!!! | | | Paul obviously used the melody from this hymn for "American Tune". | | | After I got the Old Friends CD and listened to this tune again, I have searched the web for background information from time to time. |

| | Plan 9 - Eva Cassidy : American Tune |
| | Most remarkable about AMERICAN TUNE is despite the diversity of the sources, her voice forges a discernable, undeniable thread between songs; Cassidy is as comfortable with soul as traditional folk, pop as jazz, and her irreplaceable voice could wrap around just about any song. | | | In fact, this eighth release, AMERICAN TUNE, contains a reworking of perhaps the most covered song of all time, the Lennon-McCartney ballad "Yesterday," and despite thousands of versions, she discovered a new interpretation hidden within the folds of the familiar. | | | Usually, by this point, the well of a talent that passed so young would have long been tapped, but Cassidy proves so strong that her music seems inexhaustable, and AMERICAN TUNE rises far above pastiche into a stunning, consistent album of its own. |

| | The tune seems to be associated with a cluster of playful rhymes and jingles used in children's songs, play-party songs, and courting songs across the early frontier. | | | Accounts of the history of American popular song often cite the composer of the song and tune as a minstrel performer, Cool White, whose song "Lubly Fan" was published in 1843. |

| | The music is eerily beautiful in that bittersweet folk way, and I've been listening to much of it obsessively. | | | We began with religious music; but American sacred song is not the only area in which almost everything real and vital in our music history is ignored or written off by the official Grove's chronicle. | | | Tunes come from New England, the deep South, Shaker spirituals, and European-inflected folk songs, along Joy to the World and alternate lyrics to Adeste Fideles and Auld Lang Syne. |

| | It was the first known American verse sung at Bunker Hill which appeared in all early printings of the song, albeit with a chorus melody altered significantly from the one that had been established by the 1830s. | | | The true origin of the tune is unknown, as in spite of Gilmore's authorship claim, it appeared with other lyrics at various times. | | | Even members of the American Congress chose this piece over the anthem during a spontaneous performance while addressing the aftermath of the tragic incidents of 2001. |

| | Razing the Bar: Paul Simon: Pondering an American Tune |
| | I put on the headphones and settle back with an old, familiar friend, Paul Simon’s “American Tune.” It is the perfect late night musical accompaniment to insomnia; its somber, stately melody cribbed from a J.S. Bach chorale, Simon’s gentle, hushed delivery unsuccessfully masking the images that churn with nocturnal disquiet: | | | And you play the single greatest song of a singularly great American songwriter. | | | Matt, great comments linking "America" and "American Tune." The songs do seem like bookends (sorry, bad S&G pun there) that bracket the passage from youthful idealism to something like worldweary longing. |

| | In 2003, American Tune became Eva's third consecutive Number 1 album in the UK. | | | Although possessing a soulful voice, an extraordinary range and a diverse repertoire of jazz, blues, folk, gospel and pop, she still remained virtually unknown outside of her native Washington D.C. at the time of her death from cancer in 1996. | | | This led to the first commercial recording of Cassidy, the duet album "The Other Side", which featured performances of classic songs such as "Fever", Billie Holliday's "God Bless the Child" and Cassidy's signature tune "Somewhere Over the Rainbow". |

| | American Tune |
| | "American Tune" には興味深い長い歴史が有る。メロディのオリジナルはルネッサンス期のドイツの作曲家ハンス・レオ・ハスラー (1564-1612)＊が恋の歌として書いた "Mein Gmüth ist mir verwirret" ("My mind confuses me")まで遡ることが出来る。それからこの曲は、"Herzlich thut mich verlangen" という歌詞のついた賛美歌に変わり、さらに後に "O Haupt voll' Blut und Wunden" という賛美歌に変わっていった。ヨハン・セバスチャン・バッハが「マタイ受難曲」にこのメロディを借用している。この伝統的なオラトリオの中のさまざまな五ケ所の部分でこのメロディを聴くことが出来る。今日、このメロディは "Because All Men Are Brothers" やいろいろな歌詞がつけられて、さまざまな宗派の賛美歌で歌われている。1973年、ポール・サイモンはこの古い曲の変転を続けさせ、"Many's the time I've been mistaken"（何度も誤りを繰り返してきた）ではじまる歌詞を付けて "American Tune" という曲を作った。Rolling Stone 誌はこの曲をその年のもっとも優れた曲に選んだ。 |
