I used to drive my son to school on my bike, both of us singing this song in our imperfect English. I remember thinking, please God, make this moment last for ever.
Sorry for your loss! Its hard enough when someone passes naturally but when you do not expect it its so much worse. My brother committed suicide in a solo car crash September 2 two years ago. Its very difficult I mean I am at the anger stage of grief. But I am also upset that I can never ask him any questions. It may sound odd to some but its just how I feel right now.. Again Im sorry for your loss
Jonathan Winfield I’m so sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing your story. Suicide is a hard one to process. I won’t say I understand why you’re going through, because no one understands what any of use is going through. Grief is a very hard thing to process and we will go through many stages of it. For instance, Even though my husband’s death baffled investigators and we suspect that he may have suffered a stroke or seizure on the road (he had a concussion 2 days before)... I still felt very angry toward him for a while. I told him to go get check after the concussion but he staunchly refused. We also have 2 little ones under the age of 4 and one on the way. This lasted about 2 weeks and I am now in the acceptance stage and just going over everything we built together.
My brother died on Friday. He loved sting. Stings words.. "you'll remember me" Thats enough. I'll play it at his funeral and keep his spirit with me forever.
As a kid. My dad woke me up to this every morning. He passed away a few weeks ago. I can barely get through the whole song. It brings such peace love and pain to my heart. I love you forever dad.
Hi, I’m sorry for responding to your adorable activities here. you have such a thrilling profile, words fail to complement your wonderful and lovely personality. I'll really appreciate if you accept me as a friend. If you're interested in chatting with me
As a young farm boy back in 1959, I recall sitting with my soon to be wife, the love of my life, and watching the wheat wave in the breeze as we dreamed of our future. I lost her to cancer in 1996. This song always brings a tear to my eye. Beautiful bright brown eyes with dark, soft, long hair and very intelligent lady. So dearly missed and so lovingly remembered. Love this song.
So Sorry to hear of your loss, Cancer has ravaged many a family. I'm sure your wife was larger than life, so it must follow that she will always be with you.
I‘m a 24 old, Not Many at my Age know and listen to this song, I can‘t describe what this song means to me, sometimes I can‘t handle that much beautiness and tears come into my eyes. I Love this Song - this era of music seems so emotional to me. Must have been a stunning time to be young. Thank you Sting for this masterpiece.
Acredito tbm q tenha sido uma época boa , quesito músicas por exemplo , letras tao tocantes , tão profundas ! Isso sim é música !!! ❤😢 tenho 38 amo músicas antigas !
@@marionleigh7050 Because of the way he reacted once when it was mentioned to him. Can't remember where and when, but he seemed to think it was just another song and wanted to move on. Then too, he may have just wanted to be humble.
@@matthewmchenry2889 Well, I certainly respect your opinion, but I like the way Sting sings it. And I will also listen to the way the Celts sing it, given the opportunity.
If you’re not sensitive, this song will make you sensitive. I’m extra sensitive and crying my eyes out. I was cleaning my house and this song came on the radio😢 I had to take a minute and enjoy and let go all my emotions. Thank you Sting for this masterpiece 🙏❤
Does anyone ever have that feeling of hearing just such a great song that it makes them just have a tingly feeling inside? Like it sorta feels like crying, except you aren't? That's what this song makes me feel.
The first time I heard this song was like 3 months ago, when my dad was driving me home from South Dakota. It was at night, and while we listened, it was totally silent as we looked at the lights of the city. Great experience.
I'd be honored if some Sting fans would take a quick listen to my acoustic piano & vocal UA-cam performances of ENGLISHMAN IN NEW YORK and WHY SHOULD I CRY FOR YOU in tribute to the master of lyricism and composition. Live acoustic with no autotune or digital editing. Peace and stay safe in the '020s.
I remember my friend. May she be walking in fields of gold… A precious soul and deeply missed. Please reach out to anyone feeling lost/alone/lonely/isolated…it’s the little things that can make all the difference. Keep going ❤ you are loved x
I'm a 53 year old, shaven headed, gym going, van driving builder, but I can't listen to more than a couple of lines of this song without welling up, It just reminds me of warm summer evenings walking with all the dogs I have ever owned, loved and lost. I'm not a spiritual person , and in my mind when you die , the lights go out and that's your lot, but if I'm wrong I hope that if just even for one evening I can have them all back together at one time , and we might walk in fields of gold .
@@paddyodawsmaclaferty3093 you're right, it is wired, there's plenty of songs that are supposed to a bit sad or emotional but none of them hits me like this one does
My father used to play this song a lot when I was in Kindergarten and Elementary School. It gave him a lot of comfort because he was still grieving the loss of my paternal grandfather (his father) more than 10 years after his death. A drunk driver that was drag racing killed my Pop-Pop back in 1978. Now my own father is up there with him. Rest in peace. Both of you.
Today is my dad's funeral, this was his favorite song listening to it i feel like he's right here with me. Tomorrow is my second son birthday trying to be strong so he could have a happy day. This song helps.
To the person that reads this, I ask the Lord to bless them and their family, to cure them of every sickness and pain, to fill their emptiness with love joy and peace, to rebuke the enemy from their lives. " ASK JESUS TO COME INTO YOUR HEART AND SAVE YOU, AND TO FORGIVE YOU OF YOUR SINS, FOR WE GIVE THANKS AND GLORY TO THE LORD. IN THE MIGHTY NAME OF JESUS CHRIST AMEN!
This song brings tears to my eyes. My wife had cancer and listened to this song all the time coz our daughter sang it for her. She’s now 16 years in remission and I thank the lord, my life could have been so different having to bring our daughter up by myself. They are extremely close now. ❤️❤️
My sister Crystal has cancer and this song hits me I just got done crying to this song pray for my sister Crystal my best friend bile duct cancer and spreading God bless you Crystal my sister and best friend
A moment that will last forever as long the generations that remember this song are alive. Millennials will remember this song, but what about future generations?
@@ildart8738Some millenial might one day make a hit movie and use it as a soundtrack. And the cycle might repeat with future generations.Just look at what happened to Running up that hill .
@condurachesorin Well that's debatable, because Placebo did a cover of Kate Bush's "Running Up This Hill" and went further with their version then she ever did on her own until the "Stranger Things" show. Most people thought Placebo were the original recording artist.
@@DravensWolves It happenes to a lot of songs. Heck, when I was kid I thought that The Man who sold the world was a Nirvana original. It took Metal Gear Solid for me to start going down that rabbit hole. Same thing could happen to someone in the future with Fields of Gold.
Man... exactly the same.And the best part? I wasn’t even born in the 90’s. Somehow I feel nostalgic about a time period that I never experienced. Dreaming of how my life would be...
But Steven, the true miracles in music (not least with something like Duran Duran's "Ordinary World") come when they don't really sit and think too much, but allow the Holy Spirit to take their own talents to a higher and deeper and fuller level. Now let's be clear, nobody denies that these works are by the artists and from their souls, but those souls draw on the Spirit - now as in Biblical times, and again and again it happens that other people (e.g. myself) can see TRANSPARENTLY the depth of what has been produced, even as the makers are not always fully able to do so. You know that "Ordinary World" includes the lyrics: talking softly / lights / ghost / life / cry / survive / Passion / Pride / Cross / heart / my friend / gone away / suffering and greed / Fear / holy war and holy need / sorrow? Most reasonable people looking on would say that is not a religiously-neutral set of words, but who knows if the band even realise that? They themselves thought they were writing a melancholy commemorative song, yet many who hear it feel a kind of inspiring ectasy. The same with "Fields of Gold"... Many, many times we hear artists mumble semi-embarrassedly that "it just kind of came to me". This is all the more true of Brits, for whom self-deprecating embarrassment is a national sport. Of course, all that religious stuff is supposedly a bit too deep for Brits, so they force themselves into loudly-declared atheism again and again. That is probably why the Paraclete - who certainly has Its/His more-playful side - again and again helps Brits to produce divinely-inspired and divinely-inspiring creativity - Ralph Vaughan Williams, The Beatles, Shakespeare, Keane, Elbow, Coldplay, Richard Curtis, Adam Curtis, Sting, and so on (and on) (and on)...
@@crimson6658 No. But I'm not low in any way either. I feel as I feel without the aid of chemicals (except the ones my own body produces of course). I am a scientist and know quite a bit about scientific truth regarding the world and the universe. But like any TRUE scientist (unblinkered), I am on the look out for the (few but not zero) things going on around us that do not add up in line with conventional explanations. I go where the evidence takes me, and am thus interested in the impact certain songs or other pieces of music have on people. I had a religious encounter that was very closely similar to what is described in The Bible in regard to the Holy Spirit, and intriguingly that was not a very dreamlike experience, but really quiet tangible, if of course wonderful. I can't fully explain it, but know it happened and do not dismiss it - all the more so as it has definitely changed the way I see things ... in the direction of "seeing" more. It makes me so happy, and leaves me feeling so connected and in awe, that I actually panic and feel fearful over the prospect that I might return to what I was like before. So thanks for asking, Crimson - and I have no idea whether you got the answer you wanted or not. But bless you anyway!
My dad died today. He told me to play this when his time comes. I'll always remember him with this masterpiece. I'll show it to my future children alongside their grandfathers pictures and stories.
This song is so deep and original that it transports you to the abyss of the universe, creating memories of the good old days. Thanks Sting masterpiece
before i got married , i had listened to this song, imagining a wife and 2 kids in the beautiful fields. now 25 years later , i have a wife and 2 kids . we have also travelled the world. Thank God. The power of positive affirmation
@@Parkerlee1000 Reach out and be willing to use the tools of the modern age and you'll find someone. =) Might not be the first person you meet but persistence and a bit of effort on improving yourself along the way will make it worthwhile. Good luck to you stranger.
Such a nostalgic feel and very sentimental. Certain masterpieces such as these revoke “mysterious”emotions from childhood(buried/repressed) that can only translate to or identify most with melancholy😢
I’ve always loved this song. I don’t know why, maybe the one day I’ll figure out why. It’s about peace and love and a hope someone will remember me. But forget me at the same time.
I have a vivid memory of my mother holding me in her arms dancing with me to this song in our living room. Holding my little arm out with my tiny hand in hers. One of my happiest moments. She doesn't remember it but I'll never forget it
I'd greatly appreciate it if some Sting fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of ENGLISHMAN IN NEW YORK and WHY SHOULD I CRY FOR YOU on my YT channel in tribute to one of the all-time masters of lyricism and composition. Live acoustic with no autotune or digital editing. Peace and stay safe.
this song was played at my husbands funeral in 2017, he was just 34 and left behind 2 beautiful children....I will listen to it for the rest of my life.
This song truly is a masterpiece of art in the same way as a painting by one of the great masters , they share a special element that means they live deep within our souls ,this is just spine tingling ,with it's slightly lilting melody and melancholy rhythm ,we are indeed fortunate to live in an age where we have access to these wondrous works of art at our fingertips so we can appreciate them for their magnificence but keep them safe in our hearts ,minds and souls. Thank you Sting ,your talent has done humanity a great service and we are all in your debt.
My dad asked about the lyrics of this song so I bought him the cd. It was the last gift I gave him as he passed away not long after. Now I always think of him when I hear this song.
According to Sting, he got inspired to write this song after he bought a 16th-century manor house, which was surrounded by fields of barley. During the Summer the wind would blow over the shimmering surface of barley, and it just looked like a sea of gold. This is such a beautiful song with such beautiful lyrics.
I love love this, my husband passed 41 years ago..I was 32. He was the love of my life. We did walk on fields of Gold for 11 years. When my time comes, I will have this at my service. Sting is amazing and so is the version from Celtic Womam.
This song is in my top 5 of all time. I come from a country town in Western Australia where 'fields of Gold's is a part of life.I've already asked my daughter to play it at my funeral. It broke her heart but she knows what this song means to me.
My beautiful mother recently passed suddenly, but prior to her passing.. for the last few months she absolutely loved this song and constantly had it on repeat. It will forever remind me of her.🙏🏻💕
It was February 12, 1995. I was sitting on a couch at a party when she came in and walked around the corner. Knew it right then. I worked part time at a skating rink and I would put this song on for couple's skate as my mind was filled with thoughts of her. Almost 25 years together, married for 17 with three kids....still f'ing crazy about her. I need to go to bed now and cuddle up.
In terms of melody, I think this is one of the most beautiful songs ever written. It sounds so warm and peaceful ☀️. In these three and a half minutes you can at least try to think of a better world and forget the harsh reality.
When I was child, I listened this almoust every day on radio. Now, I'm still listening this song, reminds me childhood and I will never forget this song ...
I had great luck meeting with this Gentleman in '80. He walked up as we were fixing our bikes, asking what type of bicycle and where to get it. Back of Arnott's in Dublin. September 1980. Never learnt how he enjoyed his cycle tour
'Fields of Gold' is that song that whenever you hear it playing anywhere, your mind, heart, and soul instantly reset to it and you believe it to be the most breathtakingly beautiful song ever made.
I lost my dad 10 days ago. Tomorrow is his funeral. I have a very distinct memory of him playing this song on our road trips. He always made me feel safe growing up. This song reminds me of those precious moments and how I wish I could go back to those moments in my life ❤
I’m so sorry for your loss, my friend. I know what it’s like to lose your father. I lost mine 3 years ago. My father also used to play Sting’s music for us kids. Hang on to those memories. They will give you comfort for the rest of your life if you let ‘em.
@@StacheBigote it's amazing, just the love and support and encouragement in your response 😊 Thank you. I will hold on to these memories forever. I'm sorry you lost your father too. He sure raised a good person in you 🙏🏽
All how I listen to this song it reminds me of how sweet life used to be with the ones you loved and now are gone and much much more. The past the present and how to appreciate the life we are living much more. ❤❤❤my fav of all time!!!!
This song makes me feel like I'm in heaven, walking with mom in the fields of gold, holding hands, I can smell her beautiful fragrance in the wind, walking towards the sunset and She's telling me how happy she is in heaven. I miss you mom.. I miss you so much
Tasmina Pinky: What beautiful memories and feelings you have of your Mother. I believe you will definitely get to be with her again soon and do that thing which you desire. 😊 God bless you!
I dated a guy who played this music a lot and he told me this song always reminds him of me. Now we both moved countries and I wonder if he still remember that moment.
@@proevo1 come on seriously you listen to such good melody and come up giving negative hope.. Hope is all a person has.. let her find him we hope you find him and walk the fields of gold 💙👍👍
My wife and I renewed our vows on our 25th anniversary (2009). This was the song we played at the reception. We were in Germany in 1992. One summer day we picniced on the side of a hill overlooking a wheat field. We were fascinated by the winds movement on the ripe wheat. It was a special day for us. The first time we heard "Fields of Gold" in 1993 it became "Our song," and it has been ever since. Logan, I pray you and your new wife will find the happiness that we have had these past 32 years. God bless you both.
I'm so sad to hear that you lost your husband. I will pray for you 🙏 Fields of Gold, is truly one of the best love songs ever written. Sting is Magical 🎶🎵 🥁
This Song was on as I left the hospital after my father passed away during a medical procedure..Never got to say goodbye. I know he is walking through Fields of Gold..
I'm a heavy metal fan, and I've been in serious moshpits in my time, but I also grew up listening to sting as well. If this doesn't make you cry, you have no soul. Bottom line.
The singer is conveying a sense of timeless love and nostalgia. The lyrics describe a romantic and idyllic scene set in fields of barley, symbolizing a beautiful and peaceful place. The imagery evokes a feeling of serenity and connection between two people. The singer suggests that the memories created in this special place will endure, even as time passes. The lyrics talk about a promise of love and devotion, with the idea that the love they share will be everlasting. The reference to the west wind and the sun further emphasizes the passage of time and how their love will be remembered despite it. The repeated phrase “We’ll walk in fields of gold” expresses a longing for a future filled with happiness and togetherness. Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of deep love, lasting memories, and a hope for an enduring connection that transcends time.
This summed it all up for me and my love, my wife, the father of my son. Amusing how younger people - our children - don't want to hear about what we felt. And that's sad. But, I guess, inevitable.
I used to drive my son to school on my bike, both of us singing this song in our imperfect English. I remember thinking, please God, make this moment last for ever.
That's beautiful my friend
respect!
God bless you both
That made me cry Gustavo.Very beautiful.

A moment that will last forever as long the generations that remember this song are alive. Millennials will remember this song, but what about future generations?
@@ildart8738Some millenial might one day make a hit movie and use it as a soundtrack. And the cycle might repeat with future generations.Just look at what happened to Running up that hill .
It has the ability to take each of us to that special person and place in time gone now but forever in our hearts and minds
Magic
@condurachesorin Well that's debatable, because Placebo did a cover of Kate Bush's "Running Up This Hill" and went further with their version then she ever did on her own until the "Stranger Things" show. Most people thought Placebo were the original recording artist.
@@DravensWolves It happenes to a lot of songs. Heck, when I was kid I thought that The Man who sold the world was a Nirvana original. It took Metal Gear Solid for me to start going down that rabbit hole. Same thing could happen to someone in the future with Fields of Gold.
There are certain 90’s songs that give me an overwhelmingly painful and bittersweet sense of nostalgia. This is definitely one of them.
Yes 😭✨
This one and Holding Back The Years By Simply Red. Totally agree
which one‘s still?
I agree. Also, I deeply thank you for being one of those who STILL knows how to write.
Man... exactly the same.And the best part? I wasn’t even born in the 90’s. Somehow I feel nostalgic about a time period that I never experienced. Dreaming of how my life would be...
Crying violently to a song about unfixable problems has never felt so right before.
Never will forget this ALBUM. Every song is GOLD.!!
this song is pure gold
+Imran Haque it's fields of "pure gold"!
+MrDaniel3223 well said
agreed
Absolutely.
absolutely
I miss the days where artists sat and thought about lyrics. Lyrics with meaning and not just words. This is beautiful genius poetry! ❤️😥
Shut up, WAP is on a par with Shakespeare's best prose.
But Steven, the true miracles in music (not least with something like Duran Duran's "Ordinary World") come when they don't really sit and think too much, but allow the Holy Spirit to take their own talents to a higher and deeper and fuller level. Now let's be clear, nobody denies that these works are by the artists and from their souls, but those souls draw on the Spirit - now as in Biblical times, and again and again it happens that other people (e.g. myself) can see TRANSPARENTLY the depth of what has been produced, even as the makers are not always fully able to do so. You know that "Ordinary World" includes the lyrics: talking softly / lights / ghost / life / cry / survive / Passion / Pride / Cross / heart / my friend / gone away / suffering and greed / Fear / holy war and holy need / sorrow? Most reasonable people looking on would say that is not a religiously-neutral set of words, but who knows if the band even realise that? They themselves thought they were writing a melancholy commemorative song, yet many who hear it feel a kind of inspiring ectasy. The same with "Fields of Gold"... Many, many times we hear artists mumble semi-embarrassedly that "it just kind of came to me". This is all the more true of Brits, for whom self-deprecating embarrassment is a national sport. Of course, all that religious stuff is supposedly a bit too deep for Brits, so they force themselves into loudly-declared atheism again and again. That is probably why the Paraclete - who certainly has Its/His more-playful side - again and again helps Brits to produce divinely-inspired and divinely-inspiring creativity - Ralph Vaughan Williams, The Beatles, Shakespeare, Keane, Elbow, Coldplay, Richard Curtis, Adam Curtis, Sting, and so on (and on) (and on)...
@@sidpheasant7585 are you high?
@@crimson6658 No. But I'm not low in any way either. I feel as I feel without the aid of chemicals (except the ones my own body produces of course). I am a scientist and know quite a bit about scientific truth regarding the world and the universe. But like any TRUE scientist (unblinkered), I am on the look out for the (few but not zero) things going on around us that do not add up in line with conventional explanations. I go where the evidence takes me, and am thus interested in the impact certain songs or other pieces of music have on people. I had a religious encounter that was very closely similar to what is described in The Bible in regard to the Holy Spirit, and intriguingly that was not a very dreamlike experience, but really quiet tangible, if of course wonderful. I can't fully explain it, but know it happened and do not dismiss it - all the more so as it has definitely changed the way I see things ... in the direction of "seeing" more. It makes me so happy, and leaves me feeling so connected and in awe, that I actually panic and feel fearful over the prospect that I might return to what I was like before. So thanks for asking, Crimson - and I have no idea whether you got the answer you wanted or not. But bless you anyway!
@@sidpheasant7585 you should be a comedian, you're hilarious
Even it was released 30 years ago but it never sounds old. Still gold!
Is that old it is God I'm old loved it from day one im 74 god bless you x
Your whole life in a song called Fields of Gold. Such a sad and peaceful emotion.
My dad died today. He told me to play this when his time comes. I'll always remember him with this masterpiece. I'll show it to my future children alongside their grandfathers pictures and stories.
My condolences, David. 💛🙏🏻💛 My heart goes out to you.
ASNF
May we all meet again in Heaven.
A GREAT song to be remembered by. God bless you and your kids.
Your Father will always be with you David...he is not far away now!!!
Almost 2022 and this song is still a masterpiece!
Indeed. .even in 3022 it will still be a master piece
yeah!
It's as GOOD as it GETS, in my mind
Because it speaks to the human soul, I believe.
I love your comment
This song is so deep and original that it transports you to the abyss of the universe, creating memories of the good old days. Thanks Sting masterpiece
One of the most beautiful songs ever ❤❤❤
Agree 💛
before i got married , i had listened to this song, imagining a wife and 2 kids in the beautiful fields. now 25 years later , i have a wife and 2 kids . we have also travelled the world. Thank God. The power of positive affirmation
Fantastic mate.
That sounds wonderful.
Cantik
i wish i could find the women that i stay with forever and have kids im 28 all my friends have girlfriends and kids and im alone this makes me sad :(
@@Parkerlee1000 Reach out and be willing to use the tools of the modern age and you'll find someone. =) Might not be the first person you meet but persistence and a bit of effort on improving yourself along the way will make it worthwhile. Good luck to you stranger.
A truly wonderful song from Sting, a timeless classic. A song for the ages.
You mean for us aged.
This song always brings me to tears.. and i can't explain why.. it's so haunting and mesmerizing.
Same… It’s so beautiful
Such a nostalgic feel and very sentimental. Certain masterpieces such as these revoke “mysterious”emotions from childhood(buried/repressed) that can only translate to or identify most with melancholy😢
❤❤❤❤.
Это потому что было какое-то событие в вашей жизни и эта песня напоминает то время особенно если это первая любовь ❤
Crying right now as I listen 🥲
The song is so sad to me, I lost my wife to cancer, I once walked the fields of Gold with Her.......Now lonelyness took over.....
I'm so sorry, brother. It's music like this that helps us survive in such terrible times.
Love you brother, I hope you're doing well.
@@Skorpse Thank you so much, I now live in a Vehicle.....
Honestly, this song is for everyone who has experienced life.
My mom passed away a few days ago, she loved this song, thank you Sting!!!!
May she rest in peace!
@@MrGrumpyGills Thanks!!!
😢❤
She is with our lord now
@@Joeyslick94 💕✝️
His songs are so poetic. Reflective. With melody that can touch your soul. 💚💛
I’ve always loved this song. I don’t know why, maybe the one day I’ll figure out why. It’s about peace and love and a hope someone will remember me. But forget me at the same time.
If you're happy the song makes you happier. If you're sad, the song is sad with you together.
Te acompaña! Es su poder💞
So true
Sting - Fields Of Gold
How much I love this song!♪∮♪∮♬♪∮♪∮♪

All of Stings song are bittersweet, my belated husband and I used to listen to his music.. Bring back so many memories.🥲😔🙂
I have a vivid memory of my mother holding me in her arms dancing with me to this song in our living room. Holding my little arm out with my tiny hand in hers. One of my happiest moments. She doesn't remember it but I'll never forget it
Your comments really touched this old veteran who grew up with this beautiful music. God Bless you.
@@geraldnovak5042 Thank you for your service and God bless you tenfold, Mr. Novak ❤🥲
I could never get sick of listening to this utterly beautiful masterpiece.
I'd greatly appreciate it if some Sting fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of ENGLISHMAN IN NEW YORK and WHY SHOULD I CRY FOR YOU on my YT channel in tribute to one of the all-time masters of lyricism and composition. Live acoustic with no autotune or digital editing. Peace and stay safe.
@@willritter4076 I loved Eva but I think Sting is maybe better. Like wine. No one can judge.
🤟🏻💓
Its ok
Me to
Who is listening this beautiful song in 2020??
I do
me to man
I am. 16th of January 2020
This song gonna be with me for rest of my life.
this song was played at my husbands funeral in 2017, he was just 34 and left behind 2 beautiful children....I will listen to it for the rest of my life.
This song truly is a masterpiece of art in the same way as a painting by one of the great masters , they share a special element that means they live deep within our souls ,this is just spine tingling ,with it's slightly lilting melody and melancholy rhythm ,we are indeed fortunate to live in an age where we have access to these wondrous works of art at our fingertips so we can appreciate them for their magnificence but keep them safe in our hearts ,minds and souls.
Thank you Sting ,your talent has done humanity a great service and we are all in your debt.
I delicate this song for my sweet mum milagreana, who died one week ago ...May her soul rest in peace.
My dad asked about the lyrics of this song so I bought him the cd. It was the last gift I gave him as he passed away not long after. Now I always think of him when I hear this song.
❤🕊⚘
God bless him ...
❤
♥️⚘
war13death a sweet love...,
According to Sting, he got inspired to write this song after he bought a 16th-century manor house, which was surrounded by fields of barley. During the Summer the wind would blow over the shimmering surface of barley, and it just looked like a sea of gold.
This is such a beautiful song with such beautiful lyrics.
Sensational imagery for inspiration.
I love love this, my husband passed 41 years ago..I was 32. He was the love of my life. We did walk on fields of Gold for 11 years. When my time comes, I will have this at my service. Sting is amazing and so is the version from Celtic Womam.
Watch Eva Cassidy's version . It brought Sting to tears 💕💕💕
Certainly aided by the fact he was a newly married man at the time.
This wasnt written by sting
In my 47 I heard so much different styles of music. But Sting is always on my heart. Thanks you Gordon for your talent
This song is in my top 5 of all time. I come from a country town in Western Australia where 'fields of Gold's is a part of life.I've already asked my daughter to play it at my funeral. It broke her heart but she knows what this song means to me.
My beautiful mother recently passed suddenly, but prior to her passing.. for the last few months she absolutely loved this song and constantly had it on repeat. It will forever remind me of her.🙏🏻💕
You are so fortunate to share your mother's final days. Time, life goes so quickly. Hope you have found PEACE. Thanks for sharing your message!
@Sunfeld Jiramhir aren't you a silly one.
So sorry for your loss....
If no one told you, Heather GG that they love you today, I love you ❤! Steve Matthews
I am so sorry for your loss. I hope till you walk in fields of gold with her again this brings you comfort
It was February 12, 1995. I was sitting on a couch at a party when she came in and walked around the corner. Knew it right then. I worked part time at a skating rink and I would put this song on for couple's skate as my mind was filled with thoughts of her. Almost 25 years together, married for 17 with three kids....still f'ing crazy about her. I need to go to bed now and cuddle up.
Lucky man your day dreams came true!!! Thanks for sharing your beautiful story. Enjoy!
Remember she’s never truly yours, it’s just your turn
The Heathen Beautiful man, the cuddling up bit ❤️🙏🏻
Ayyyyye bro thats fire
Wow!
I always wanted this song played at my wedding. One day. ❤
Ok, let us know. We want to be there. ☺️❤️
In memoriam of my brother James McMorris, Jr. and his wife Felicia McMorris. He died in early December 2023 and this was their song. I love you Jimbo.
❤
In terms of melody, I think this is one of the most beautiful songs ever written. It sounds so warm and peaceful ☀️. In these three and a half minutes you can at least try to think of a better world and forget the harsh reality.
Yes, this world is hell and that's why I support antinatalism ‼️
Warm and beautifull, yesss.
Es posible.
I totally agree my dear friend
yes, very well put!
When I was child, I listened this almoust every day on radio. Now, I'm still listening this song, reminds me childhood and I will never forget this song ...
you are so cool listening to this :)
I love to hear this in vacation fantastic memories for me :)
Peter Pan Thank you :)
My dad showed me this song and it helped me a lot!
Same here
I used to hear this song all the time as a kid and I probably haven’t heard it in twenty years. It unlocked a core memory for me. What a melody.
My nans funeral song 😢
Lovley song choice ❤

I had great luck meeting with this Gentleman in '80. He walked up as we were fixing our bikes, asking what type of bicycle and where to get it. Back of Arnott's in Dublin. September 1980. Never learnt how he enjoyed his cycle tour
❤❤❤
Sorry for your loss, she's in much better place
❤️🎚️❤️
This was my favorite song when I was little, funny how you come back to things.
Mine too, and still listening it :)

Goosebumps man.

Normally, I am not a Sting fan. I came here for this song
This is the first song I can remember hearing in my life. Brings back warm memories of being a toddler and playing with my father.
'Fields of Gold' is that song that whenever you hear it playing anywhere, your mind, heart, and soul instantly reset to it and you believe it to be the most breathtakingly beautiful song ever made.
You just described his song “Fragile”
I agree
Agreed from Sri Lanka.
Gladiator.
It definitely defuses the fight or flight response, that's for sure. Fields of Gold, the master of the parasympathetic nervous system.
I lost my dad 10 days ago. Tomorrow is his funeral. I have a very distinct memory of him playing this song on our road trips. He always made me feel safe growing up. This song reminds me of those precious moments and how I wish I could go back to those moments in my life ❤
You just may.......
Sorry for your loss mate. Though what a blessing it is to have had an amazing old man, nothing beats that in this world.
I’m so sorry for your loss, my friend. I know what it’s like to lose your father. I lost mine 3 years ago. My father also used to play Sting’s music for us kids. Hang on to those memories. They will give you comfort for the rest of your life if you let ‘em.
@@Myplaceseqld what a lovely response. Thank you my friend 😊 I agree completely
@@StacheBigote it's amazing, just the love and support and encouragement in your response 😊 Thank you. I will hold on to these memories forever. I'm sorry you lost your father too. He sure raised a good person in you 🙏🏽
All how I listen to this song it reminds me of how sweet life used to be with the ones you loved and now are gone and much much more. The past the present and how to appreciate the life we are living much more. ❤❤❤my fav of all time!!!!
I like how there is only life in his image as he walks, it is like the memories he carries inside him of the now empty town.
one of the greatest song of all time.
This song makes me feel like I'm in heaven, walking with mom in the fields of gold, holding hands, I can smell her beautiful fragrance in the wind, walking towards the sunset and She's telling me how happy she is in heaven. I miss you mom.. I miss you so much
Tasmina Pinky:
What beautiful memories and feelings you have of your Mother. I believe you will definitely get to be with her again soon and do that thing which you desire. 😊
God bless you!

@brenda meredith THANK YOU FOR LIKING
I hope you one day see your mum again
I was born in 95, I have heard this song throughout my whole life and I love it.
Such a bittersweet ballad of love lost but never forgotten.
I dated a guy who played this music a lot and he told me this song always reminds him of me. Now we both moved countries and I wonder if he still remember that moment.
Am sure he does
for sure....
He does. I do. We all do.
If he plays it a lot he probably tells that to all girls he date. Sorry.
@@proevo1 come on seriously you listen to such good melody and come up giving negative hope.. Hope is all a person has.. let her find him we hope you find him and walk the fields of gold 💙👍👍
Me and my wife just had our wedding today, requested this as our song we danced too at our reception, had me tearing up, God bless you Sting.
congratulations on your wedding! :)
My wife and I renewed our vows on our 25th anniversary (2009). This was the song we played at the reception. We were in Germany in 1992. One summer day we picniced on the side of a hill overlooking a wheat field. We were fascinated by the winds movement on the ripe wheat. It was a special day for us. The first time we heard "Fields of Gold" in 1993 it became "Our song," and it has been ever since.
Logan, I pray you and your new wife will find the happiness that we have had these past 32 years. God bless you both.
I envy you, my friend. May your love grow.
50% of marriages end in divorce but good luck
Logan Clark congratulations, you both obviously have taste!
This Song gives me the inner strenght to fight against my eating disorder.
Im in the same boat sending you love & strength 🤍
I'm so sad to hear that you lost your husband. I will pray for you 🙏 Fields of Gold, is truly one of the best love songs ever written. Sting is Magical 🎶🎵 🥁
For me I always thought that this was the best song Sting ever recorded.
My husband died four years ago. I envision Fields Of Gold as Heaven and he and I are reunited once again.
Eileen Himes don’t give up I hope u find new love
Wow
@@RekshX Very kind of you, Alexander. But, when one has been so fortunate as to have the best, everyone else pales by comparison. Wish you well.

Praying for your healing. ❤
Love you!!!
This was the song played at my dad's funeral as well, it was one of his faves..

This Song was on as I left the hospital after my father passed away during a medical procedure..Never got to say goodbye. I know he is walking through Fields of Gold..
So sorry for your loss, God bless you both, you have said goodbye for now too your dad through your thoughts love and this beautiful song
Yes, he is
One day you will walk with him! 😉
You've managed to bring me to tears...
@@jofrances3296 thank you
My 34 year old told me that this song always reminds him of me when he was a little boy. Time flies so quickly.
It's not a song it a portrait!!!
This songs brings back memories that aren't even mine.
You may be psychotic
Beautiful.
Me too!
Yup it reminds me of my grandfather watching the stars and airplanes on rural areas back in 2006. Most happiest moments of my life

I've finally found this song. It was stuck on my memory for 15+ years without knowing it's name. It's a true relief ❤️
the french remix with sting is even better
@@PHlophe This song has been covered to death but nothing will ever beat the original.
That's what happened to me too, just a couple of minutes ago...
I know the feeling! Thank God for UA-cam. I've found endless songs that I didn't know the title to via UA-cam.
I'm a heavy metal fan, and I've been in serious moshpits in my time, but I also grew up listening to sting as well. If this doesn't make you cry, you have no soul. Bottom line.
The singer is conveying a sense of timeless love and nostalgia. The lyrics describe a romantic and idyllic scene set in fields of barley, symbolizing a beautiful and peaceful place. The imagery evokes a feeling of serenity and connection between two people. The singer suggests that the memories created in this special place will endure, even as time passes. The lyrics talk about a promise of love and devotion, with the idea that the love they share will be everlasting. The reference to the west wind and the sun further emphasizes the passage of time and how their love will be remembered despite it. The repeated phrase “We’ll walk in fields of gold” expresses a longing for a future filled with happiness and togetherness. Overall, the lyrics convey a sense of deep love, lasting memories, and a hope for an enduring connection that transcends time.
This summed it all up for me and my love, my wife, the father of my son. Amusing how younger people - our children - don't want to hear about what we felt. And that's sad. But, I guess, inevitable.
