Sting: a song

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.
Among the Fields of Gold.

Which version do you prefer, Eva Cassidy's one or Sting's?

  1. How did you guess it, Nuria? They both are two of my favourite singers!!! It's a difficult choice. However in that song I prefer Eva Cassidy's version: it's more "pure", passionate and authentic, I think. Sting introduces a rhythm too fast and it sounds excessively mechanical, emotionless –even so I like his voice and special style in many other songs-.
