_Katie Melua - Fields of Gold (Eva Cassidy cover of Sting cover - Radio 2's Piano Room)_

[@barrywalle9207]

superb. Not for hayfever sufferers. Can see, smell and touch that field!

[@peterchattelin6721]

Very nice but nothing beats Eva’s version. Sting himself was in tears after hearing his song sung by Eva.
Kathie did a more moving performance ok her own in 2017 for a charity check you tube

[@CatalinPop]

Beautiful, but it sounds more like a cover after... Eva Cassidy !

[@PatrickKelly-lz3pv]

Eva covered the song too

[@rog2224]

It's is more of a cover of a cover, since Terry Wogan, and his producer Paul Walters were instrumental in the rediscovery of Eva Cassidy in the late 90s. I don't know how Terry felt about the original, but Eva's cover was a fixture in his playlists to his last shows in 2015.

[@YOUTHOCD]

This version just doesn't have the same emotional quality as when it's just her and her guitar. The piano feels unnecessary.
