Product Description

Amazon.ca

A good overview of Sting's radio hits and popular album tracks with only one major omission ("Mad About You"), Fields of Gold also offers three previously-unreleased songs. "This Cowboy Song" and "When We Dance" appear on no other album, while "We'll Be Together" is an alternate version. The import version of this collection offers a substantially different (and expanded) track listing, dropping "Fortress Around Your Heart," "Be Still My Beating Heart," and "Why Should I Cry for You"; and adding "Mad About You," "Nothing 'Bout Me," "Seven Days," "It's Probably Me," "Love is the Seventh Wave," and "Demolition Man." --Gavin McNett

5.0 out of 5 stars Poetic, Metaphoric, simply Beautiful!!! Jun 25 2004
By Debby
Format:Audio CD
This "Fields of Gold" collection enables us to take a glimpse at Sting's brilliant songwriting and awesome vocal performance. Every song on the CD is solid and thought-provoking.

Sting expertly mingled different genres of music, making the CD full of varieties, such as the jazzy "Englishman in NY," the rock flavored "If You Love Somebody Set Them Free," and the melancholy "Fragile." The two new additions "When We "Dance" and "This Cowboy Song" are as excellent, very creative works. I certainly found enlightenment from listening to the songs.

In addition to music, the lyrics are moving and poetic. I was on the verge of tears when I read the lyrics of "Be Still My Beating Heart" and "Fields of Gold." The words of "Fragile" are probably the most genuine portrayal of human life.

The only drawback is that the collection is not complete. Some of Sting's most moving songs, such as "Mad about You" (my favorite), "Shape of My Heart" are missing. In sum, if you have not listened to lots of Sting's songs, the collection can serve as as a guide. For me, a loyal fan, it is a CD that continually reminds me of Sting's surpassing expertise in music.

5.0 out of 5 stars Songwriting Brilliance Aug 5 2003
By "blackjack7"
Format:Audio CD
"Fields of Gold: The Best of Sting 1984-1994" is a compilation of ten years of brilliant songwriting by Sting. In a project like this, there are so many bright spots it's difficult to pick a spot to even start.

Without question every song is a gem, but my standouts would have to be as follows:

Fields of Gold
Be Still My Beating Heart
Fragile - Inspired by the passing of his mother.
Englishman In New York
Russians

Sting reveals passion and compassion in this wonderful collection of tunes and effectively reflects all moods in the process. A fan of Sting in sure not to be without this recording. This is a CD not to be missed, this truly shows sincerity of this amazing artist.

4.0 out of 5 stars I've been stung. July 21 2003
By H3@+h
Format:Audio CD
This once punk "policeman" just keeps getting more mellow with age. But that's ok. I like his newer stuff too, even if some of it does approach "Phil Collins" territory. His first solo album sounds closest to "The Police" of course, especially in the excellent song "Fortress around your Heart". Most everything he released in these first 10 solo years is great, as well as what he's done since. You can't really do wrong when your name is "Sting", (his real name is Gordon). I also like the new songs almost as much as the hits. There is also the "Best of Sting and Police" album, but I would stick to the seperate collections. Enjoy.

Dignified compilation of ten years Sting. The bass player and singer of the Police has also solo quite something to offer. This CD invites to relaxed listening pleasure. Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars A very good collection.
For a single disc collection of STING's works, FIELDS OF GOLD is pretty darn solid. I don't care for two tracks, otherwise it's all good. Read more

As much as I enjoyed The Police, I credit Sting with broadening his and my musical horizons at some point with his move toward jazz-inflected pop. Read more
