楚楚心曲9：fields of gold黄金之地———往事如风

这首歌从歌词到音乐宛如一首绝妙的爱情诗歌，那种似氺般柔软的情调却有着钢铁般坚硬的固执，并强硬地闯入每一个听者的心底，唤醒了一些沉睡的已经深埋了的东西。



首先它以简单的白描手段勾画出一幅绝妙的画面：秋天，金黄色的大麦地，缠绵的爱人
；而后有残忍地暗示：这对恋人将远离，永不再聚！当西风吹起，思念就在这金黄色的大麦地里升起，而这种思念永无绝日。

至于音乐：在风琴，钢琴，吉他和管弦的柔和怀抱中，歌声以一种近似于残忍的平静述说着我们的往事，我们的爱情。。。。

"Fields Of Gold"

You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Upon the fields of barley
You'll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we walk in the fields of gold

So she took her love
For to gaze awhile
Upon 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
We'll forget the sun in his jealous sky
As we lie in the fields of gold

See the west wind move like a lover so
Upon the fields of barley
Feel her body rise when you kiss her mouth
Among the 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'll walk in the fields of gold
We'll walk in the 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
You'll remember me when the west wind moves
Upon the fields of barley
You can tell the sun in his jealous sky
When we walked in the fields of gold
When we walked in the fields of gold
When we walked in the fields of gold

The Police 应该不是我喜欢的乐队， 除了那首抱走格莱美年代最佳歌曲，蝉联全美单曲榜8周冠军的《 every breath you take》外， 它给我的印象就是愤怒。

喜欢Sting是在他离开Police后，可能他随着年龄的增加，厌倦了乐队内部无休无止的明争暗斗，他的音乐开始变得越加内省，睿智。而他本人就像一个历经沧桑的高人，临悬而立，万里长风。看他的人和听他的歌，不由自主地想起“英国气息”：彬彬有礼的绅士，繁琐的礼仪，严肃的幽默感，固执并充满悲剧色彩的浪漫爱情，保守和严格的理性，甚至多雾的阴天，还有古堡，，，



听另外一个女声版本：（Eva Cassidy），味道不同。
