This is the only song which got any emotion out of my mum when she was sick. It reminds me of her, and so without her by me, I cry whenever I hear it :( RIP Mum; my die-hard Sting fan.
I can see where hes daughter gets her talent from. She has the same types of beats and tones in her voice, look her up if you like sting. Shes called I Blame Coco
OMG I`m so happy I finally found this song :D heard it on the radio months ago and been looking for it ever since because I didn`t know the name of it...
I'm so deeply sorry about my country and awful top comments on this song. This song is simply amazing. Shame my country-mates from Poland care only about some silly language joke that is not even funny in any other language than polish...
@shymermaid1 my opinion: Field of Barley represents high summer. In relationship terms, when life is good. Within Celtic ethos barley represent "wealth" in many ways and is also a strong image. It seems to me this is an arc from youth through age. In the early verses its about them lying in the fields of gold, in the late verses it's about children playing (another generation). The critical verse is: " I never made promises lightly" - life isn't perfect, but can be good. Very dense lyrics
@noooddle Barley is a grain that grows in a wider spectrum of climates and temps than does wheat. It represents rigor, toughness, and yes, summer. Barley--like wheat--turns gold when it's ripe. (Remember the biblical verse about fields turning white for harvest, etc.).
@h3llgods - I know you prob don't care, but damn, even though we aren't together, I still love her. And this song kind of makes me think of her in a way.
@lh2005ify well, when ya leave the door wide open like that, this troll is gonna walk right in. what a dorky comment from the dude. i HAD to zing him. damn! my first no 1 comment! and no hate mail for a while. a good week in youtube. thanks for the props! i wouldn't have seen it otherwise.
@Obelisk2290 Ouch! Queen are my favourite band too, so that REALLY stings! (See what I did, there? Yes, cue massive groan.) It reminds me of the time I witnessed a video of Beyoncé murdering Bohemian Rhapsody - she didn't even put the verses in the right order, so the song made no sense! It was nothing more than an unimaginative gimmick. Ok, enough ranting. I'll get off my soap box, now.
I give most of my music away for free under a creative commons license for non commercial use. I am happy that people want to download my music and share it. But if you can afford to pay, and would like to help me, and other struggling artists like me to make a living, then why not consider some of the alternatives, for example…. (See my post below, and thankyou, we need your help and support.)
If you are looking for quality, original, hassle free, legal, inexpensive, soundtrack music for your next Youtube video or short film....try "Rumblefish Friendly Music" Just follow the link in the "About Me" section on my page. Only $1.99 per track. (Some good songs...not just library music).
thats better from Cassidy's version..the first time i heard it, many years back, brought tears to my eyes...and until know the feeling its the same ; )
this is recorded in some castle somewhere in england where he likes to go when he's looking for inspiration for creating songs... truly, one of the beautifull songs ever written and sang.
Heard this song in high school! There was these sixth year girls who did a dance to it, and av loved it eversince, makes me think about high school and how much I miss it :-) xx
Such a beautiful song, by a master songwriter and musician...but I have to say, it's Eva Cassidy's version that has the longing, haunting sound to it. Each to their own!
who the fuck could hate this song .....you must not like real music....you wouldnt have the music we have today even rap if it wasnt for band like this and many others lol lots of ppl dnt even know who sting is and many of the great bands witch is a huge shame ......the way generations have changed :( and i was born in 1990
This is one of the rare occasions where a cover seems to be generally preffered to the original, and while Eva Cassidy's is brilliant, I think this one is much better.
I remember a friend playing Eva Cassidy's version once and I was like "I prefer the original version" and she said "This IS the original version". I tried to tell her Sting wrote it and she was like "Who's Sting?" and she wouldn't believe that Cassidy's version wasn't the original. Needless to say, I was disgusted. Not only is this MOST DEFINITELY the original, but it is also MOST CERTAINLY the best! People these days have no musical education!
For years I thought he was singing about the fields of "Bali".
