Just an echo- Tatiana Stepa
Every time a singer dies, people say that the songs will live forever. But the truth is the living voice and the spirit behind it will not be here anymore.
A great folk singer died today, a crystal voice that sparkled all though our young years. A brave woman who had performed a few days ago, despite her terminal illness, who considered her life filled with undeserved miracles. A modest artist who never accepted that she had sung well, but always said it was just the wonderful audience.
She was born in a family and in a town where everyone was a miner, and she worked in a mine too when she was forbidden to perform on a stage, in Ceausescu's regime. Her songs always had a special message: about love and its power over everything, even death, about lonely people like trees without a forest, about every woman's life, rights and pain.
I found it very difficult to choose one song, but here is "Song in the Night", telling about her struggle stumbling to find her way in the dark on a stone path. Maybe it's the most appropriate.
