Fields of Gold is not strictly a folk song, so is an unlikely candidate to be in my repertoire, but I fell in love with the song when I first heard it sung by Eva Cassidy, and just had to learn it. It was written by Gordon Sumner, (better known as 'Sting') of the 70s/80s group 'The Police'.
Thanks very much.

I'm learning this tune too at the moment; I'll be accompanying a young lady on the guitar at a local folk club. I think it will be on YouTube after it happens. Eva Cassidy sings it beautifully. I never realised Sting wrote it though.
