Petit pays je t'aime beaucoup ...

Cesaria Evora, the barefoot diva, passed away today. She is one of my favorite singers, with a deep, soulful voice. It didn't matter that she sang in creole--despite whatever language you speak, her voice can stir your emotions and rumble the foundation of your soul. Au revoir, Cesaria. May I one day watch you sing Petit Pays in that French cafe in the clouds.
