Fields Of Gold by Eva Cassidy.
I discovered that due to technical video problems
in her first set at Blues Alley in Washington DC
USA,There is not a video in existance of Eva
performing her version of Fields Of Gold. Eva is
no longer with us now. Therefore, I have edited
clips of Eva, slowed them down, and set them to
her beautiful version of Fields Of Gold. I hope
you enjoy this clip as it is probably the closest
we will ever get, short of having been there in
Washington that night, to seeing Eva perform this
beautiful song. Note: I scoured the planet and
this is the only video version you will probably
find of her performing this song.
Birth name Eva Marie Cassidy
Born February 2, 1963(1963-02-02)
Washington, DC
Origin Maryland, United States
Died November 2, 1996 (aged 33)
Bowie, Maryland

Lyrics to Evas' version:
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 will 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 will walk in fields of gold
We'll walk in fields of gold
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

| "Fields of Gold" by Eva Cassidy |
 |
Here is another of my all time favorite romantic
songs . . . Eva Cassidy's version of "Fields of
Gold". I mentioned this in another recent video,
but the world lost this beautiful singer when she
died WAYYY before her time at the age of 33 from
cancer in 1996. (It's why I truly believe that you
have to focus on each day of your life . . . you
never know when your "personal time clock" will
stop ticking.) The other sad thing is that Eva,
during her life, was almost totally unknown
outside her home area of Washington D.C. and
became famous only after her death. The British
newspaper "The Guardian" later went on to describe
her as "one of the greatest voices of her
generation." Her posthumously released recordings
have since sold in excess of four million copies,
and in early 2001 the compilation album Songbird
reached #1 on the UK album charts. It's so sad
she never lived to see the recognition she
deserved . . . I hope you enjoy her music as much
as I do!
Here are the links to a wonderful three part
series about Eva and her music that was on the
American TV show "Nightline"; the series
reconfirms the incredible impact her music had,
and STILL has on the world:

The photos for this video are ones I took in
England on various trips and from when I used to
live over there. The primary castle shown in the
video is Arundel Castle, in Arundel, West Sussex,
England . . . I love wandering around old castles
in Europe and visualizing the dozens of
generations of people who have lived & died in
them . . . it's amazing to look at stone steps in
the castles that have been worn down simply from
the thousands of people who have used them over
the centures . . . it's also always eerie to
visualize the battles that were fought at the
castles and contrast those battles with the
peaceful tranquility around these castles today .
. . The Arundel castle was "remodeled" and
expanded around 1300AD, and the initial castle
built around 1100AD . . . it's always interesting
to me how castles were often times remodeled WELL
before the United States was even in EXISTENCE! :)
For more info on Arundel Castle (one of my
favorite castles for wandering around :) ) please
check out:
http://www.arundelcastle.org/_pages/01_castle.htm
In addition to the castle (which also has a
restaurant), the grounds include a beautiful old
chapel, and gardens, and the town of Arundel is
the quintessential old English town, so yeah, I
highly recommend this beautiful place if you ever
get to this part of England :)
and for castle history buffs, this website has
lots of detailed info on the Arundel Castle:
