I had this played for my beautiful husbands funeral. we lived in the countryside and he loved strolling along the country lanes. it depicts our love and boy did i love him. taken way to early and along with him he took a big piece of my heart. I now live among fields of gold with memories of the most amazing husband and fantastic dad. I will love him for eternity until we meet again among those fields of gold. My precious darling xx

As my dog Ziggy, my first and most beautiful boy, passed away, I played this song and just couldn’t stop thinking of him running in a field and chasing after the sun. I will miss him forever and may his and others’ memories be a blessing

I was 16 and my husband was 14.5 when we became an item. He wouldn’t let me drive us on a date, (it wasn’t my driving, it was his manliness), so it was bicycles till he got his license. I’ve let him know to play this song at my wake and he wants Stings version at his. Hopefully that will be years from now, but you never know.

I grabbed onto this song for comfort after my mom died of a brain aneurysm when she was just 45-years-old. Well now 14 years later I've stumbled back onto it and the feelings feel like I'm back in those moments of loss. Funny how music encapsulates so much. Last year I got to meet the wonderful woman who received my moms heart and was able to listen to my moms heart beating inside her with a stethoscope. It's not closure, but it's close.

I was lucky enough to meet the venerable gentleman in Ireland in 1980 when I was 15......a friend and I were in a laneway at the back of a big department store and were fitting our bicycles with water bottles and cages that we'd just bought. He had walked up to my friend Paul and was asking advice about a cycling trip he'd planned, what was the best type of bicycle, should he rent or buy, this was happening behind me as I was busy with a spanner, I only heard his broad Northern English accent when finished I turned around......I was GOB SMACKED as "The Police" were probably the biggest band in the World at that time. We got his autograph and directed him to Hollingsworth Cycles in Templeogue to get a 10 geared Raleigh tourer.

My husband, William Feuer, was a musician and adored this woman's voice, frequently listening to this song and others... he died last August after a month in the ICU. I brought his guitar to him in hospital before he died and he played part of this song. ❤‍🩹it.

Came to listen to this beautiful song bc of a veteran pt of mine today. We got the talking about music and this song came up in his words. He told me he was going to play this at his funeral (whenever that may be) he has been through a lot. Out of respect for him and keeping my word to him that I would listen later (which is now) and the love of music we both share, here I am listening to this beautiful song. As I listen, with tears in my eyes, I can’t help but think of all the good hearted people out there, doing the best they can, all the kind people who go through so much yet always try to make others happy and of course to all of the veterans who served this country.

I heard this song for the first time this morning as I was about to turn off my truck and go in to work. It hit me like a hammer.

She saved my life twice, healing my PTSD after two tours in Viet Nam while serving in the Marine Corps, and about twenty years ago when she didn't think the care I was receiving was correct and she raised hell about it. Sad to learn Eva Cassidy passed a way. I don't know what will happen with us. All you can do is keep moving forward.

My favorite artist for thirty years. Fields of Gold is so beautifully sung with that angelic voice that tears just roll down. I lost my wife to leukemia 2 1/2 years ago. Whenever I played Fields of Gold in the car she said it made her too sad. She didn't care for sad. When I listen to it I recall a memory of when we were walking through an apple orchard during the "golden hour" and our three daughters were playing and gathering apples. It was fall and the lighting was magical. It is a moment forever locked in my memory and Eva always brings it into sharp focus. An artist lost too soon.

I'm 31 at the moment. Over the years I've listened to so many songs, from different genre and era. The 80s, 90s, and even Jazz. If there is one song I keep coming back to, it's this track, sung by Ms Cassidy. I know this in my heart of all hearts, that if I live to be old and all wrinkled, I'd still listen to 'Fields of Gold' by Eva. Everyone has their one song. This is mine.

It references Homer's Odysseus having to adopt defensive techniques to sail around the deadly but enchantingly beautiful song of the Sirens: Title: "Séduit par le Premier son d'Eva" "Seduced by the First Sound of Eva" As Odysseus heeded Circe's warning of euphoric demise, so should you also abide. Have yourself tethered to your ship's mast, or you may suffer a similar fate such as mine. Yes, it’s too late for me, for I've heard the enchantment of her Siren sound, and I've sailed too close to her perfection. I've seen her beauty, her golden hair, and I've seen my ship collide amongst the sea-sharpened peaks of her divine inflections. And like iron to a magnet, I've plunged myself into the surrounding waves, and I've swum to her island's shore. Yet, though I die in the meadow of her sweet song, ecstasy abounds o're and o're.

Eva was an Angel on loan from God to comfort our weary soles .

hey man, you did your best and your father noticed that too for sure. Your father is now safely in god's memory and rests. But do you know god gives us the promise that we will see our relatives and friends we have lost again here on earth. God is promising this to you in the bible through Jesus the son of god when he said in John 5:28,29 ...you shouldn't be surprised, because the time will come when all, who are in the graves will hear gods voice and will come out. The bible gives so much exact information about, what god plans to do on earth, namely a paradise, and how this will affect people, so that we all will get the possibility to see our loved ones again. The bible reports on how peacefully and happily people will live together on earth in the future, where there will be no more illnesses or death. Isaiah 65:20 ...no more will there be an infant from that place who lives but a few days, nor an old man who fails to live out his days. Isaiah 65:21 ... they will build houses and live in them, and they willl plant vineyards and eat their fruitage. I send you an very hopegiving article with the theme ,,good news from god" and I'm sure that this article will build you up, because you can be sure, the future does look better than most of the people expect, because god loves us and he has a wonderful future for us in prospect. www.jw.org/en/library/books/good-news-from-god/what-hope-for-the-dead/ I wish you all the best for your future stay healthy and I send you my best regards Michel

I first heard her magnificent voice when this song came on the radio at a B&B in southern Spain in 2002. It mesmerized me. I asked the hostess who it was. She looked at me incredulously. “You’ve never heard of Eva Cassidy?” she replied. “This song is a hit on every radio station in Europe.” Back home in the U.S., no one had heard of her yet, least of all the radio programmers. I still have never heard it on the radio here.

when I like a song, I put a like under the song itself. That's probably why this song has so many thousands of likes.

Played at my mothers funeral August 2023, she was 85.

At least 20 years ago a dear friend that I worked with gifted me the songbird CD. He said you have to listen this and gave me a brief accounting of Eva's story. I remember popping it into the player that evening, and Fields of Gold started playing. I found myself involuntarily sitting down absolutely mesmerized by this voice singing to me from beyond the grave. I didn't even realize it was a Sting song. I despise Sting I find his voice unlistenable. Yet here was his song being sung by this angel. I was mourning someone I had never meant until a few hours before had never even heard of. The irony is that my friend who gifted me the CD was also taken by the black plague of cancer. This is a beautiful album It brought me back 20 years. I no longer just mourn Eva, but I think of my late friend as well. What a special gift they left me.

I'm sorry to read that you lost your Mother. You can be sure, she is now safe in God's memory. But I would like to give you hope through Gods word that was written down in the bible. Do you know, God promises in the bible lovingly a time, when you will be able to see your Mother again here on earth. For example in Revelations 21:3-5 "With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them. And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.” And the One seated on the throne said: “Look! I am making all things new.” Also he says: “Write, for these words are faithful and true.” Jesus the Son of God said:.."John 5:28 ...you shouldn't be surprised, because the time will come when all, who are in the graves will hear Gods voice and will come out. He means that there will be a time on earth when everyone who has lost someone, will be able to hold them in the arms again and welcome them to the new world, a life on earth in peace without sicknesses, disease and misfortune! Actually God is telling you... "have faith in me, I'll make everything up to you, believe in me, I take care because I love you." If you are interested, I can recommend you an very motivating and hopegiving interactive textbook with the theme: Enjoy Life forever/Your loved ones can live again" www.jw.org/en/library/books/enjoy-life-forever/section-2/lesson-30/ This book is based on the bible and is about what God will do in the very near future, and how it can give you hope now and for the future. Even if many don't think about God or don't believe in him, God believes in us and offers us humans to be his friends, and in return he will give us peace, joy and security in a coming beautiful world in the near future. I honestly wish you all the strength and the best for your future and send you my best greetings Michel

Lyrics : You'll remember me when the west wind moves Among the fields of barley You can tell the sun in his jealous sky When we walked in fields of gold So she took her love for to gaze awhile Among the fields of barley In his arms she fell as her hair came down Among the fields of gold Will you stay with me? Will you be my love Among the fields of barley? And you can tell the sun in his jealous sky When we walked in fields of gold I never made promises lightly And there have been some that I've broken But I swear in the days still left We'll walk in fields of gold We'll walk in fields of gold I never made promises lightly And there have been some that I've broken But I swear in the days still left We'll walk in fields of gold We'll walk in fields of gold Ooh Many years have passed since those summer days Among the fields of barley See the children run as the sun goes down As you lie in fields of gold You'll remember me when the west wind moves Among the fields of barley You can tell the sun in his jealous sky When we walked in fields of gold When we walked in fields of gold When we walked in fields of gold, ooh

As Sting said, her ethereal voice was unique and it's truly sad that she was not here long enough to share it with the world!

A road trip in gentle misty rain, the hypnotic to and fro swish of the windshield wipers, tyres hissing on wet tarmac, so warm and snug in the car and this beautiful song came on the radio, when finished the announcer said ''The incomparable Eva Cassidy''. So true.

The reason she never achieved the acclaim she deserved while on this Earth is because she was a person who was true to herself living in a World that is not.

Fohpono , True! Also, sadly, Eva was gone too soon. By the time Chuck Brown exposed her great Talent to neighboring Venues, wasn’t long before that, we heard the melancholy on the radio.😔 She left a resounding sweet Sound. 🎶🥰🎶🥀🕊🥀

I feel like an asshole for not seeing her at The Kingston Mines in Chicago today that place would be packed.

Fohpono Well said. So well said. She was superior to that ugly plastic hit machine. She was too perfect for this world so God took her back.

There is nothing godly about her death. She had cancer...it's as simple as that. It is laughable that people still worship gods in these times...finding feeble excuses for their chosen deity's failures...and claiming the grace with no evidence of heavenly blessing. Good things and bad things happen. Life, nature and pure chance..no gods, no demons.

Played this song at my mums funeral in June It was her favourite song love and miss you mum forever ❤

What a gift she was to us all. I can't believe I had never heard about her until after she passed. Sing on wherever you are, songbird.

Not to subtract from Eva Cassidy, but you might look up The Seekers and their lead, Judith Durham, also the voice of angels.

I just today learned about her. I am so sorry I somehow missed her. She is an angel now and singing with God.

Thank you Dustin Thao and your book "Vous êtes sur le portable de Sam" which brought me here... I was empty for a long time... I'm now walking in this fields of gold too... one Day my depression will only be a bad souvenir... Thanks Miss Cassidy and Mr Sting...🙏

I read the book months ago and both the book and this song just completely wrecked me

it's like she is singing beyond all boundaries, all death or life, to sing her very soul. Beautiful....

Singing this precious song for my Daddy's funeral 😢 simply amazing Kindness and support emotionally love him eternal

I wish we had known and appreciated her at the time, as we should have.

If there is a heaven, Eva is teaching the angels how to sing, how to REALLY sing.

Never again will there be another singer like her. She is one of a kind.

Her voice comforts me, when I'm feeling low. I love everything she sings, but this especially.

I play this song ...her song ..when I am feeling so low. It is almost two years since God took my man of 47 years. I so loved him, and I still do . Some nights, I feel his body lying next to me in bed. As he says to me, "Good night, babe," 10- 13- 2021 RIP MY LOVE
