meaning of the song?

[xfactor]

what is the story behind the song fields of gold by sting?

[Count_Emmup]

I regret I am unable to answer your question, but what i can tell you is that Eva Cassidy's version of it is light years better than Sting's.

If you can listen to it without a lump in the throat check your pulse. I can't listen to it without tears in my eyes, but that's also to do with the tragedy of her all too premature death.

[Sue de Nym]

I'll have to disagree with that, Eva's version holds an audience with 3% talent, and 97% sympathy ... sorry.

@ Count_Emmup
Your Right' her Version is Better' even sting said so......

what happened to eva cassidy?

[Reverandfunk]

Agree with you Sue, not being nasty but take away what happened to her and she would have been a pub singer if she was lucky.

[Count_Emmup]

I wouldn't normally pay much attention to posters who can't spell their username properly (it's ReverEnd, not ReverAnd), but I can't help wondering what rubbish you talk when you are being nasty.
