Fields Of Gold
Ê·Í¡Sting Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You'll forget the sun in his jealous sky as we walk in 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 fields of gold
See the west wind move like a lover so upon the fields of barley.
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 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 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 fields of gold
When we walked in fields of gold, when we walked in fields of gold
In Sting's song "Fields of Gold," the lyrics create a sense of romantic nostalgia for a time gone by. The imagery of the fields of barley, the west wind, and the sun in its jealous sky all add to this feeling. The singer speaks of a love that bloomed in these fields, and as they walk together they forget about the rest of the world. The line "Feel her body rise when you kiss her mouth among the fields of gold" invokes a sense of intimacy and passion between these lovers that is only heightened by the natural setting that surrounds them.
The second half of the song fast-forwards through time, and we see that many years have passed. The children now run among the fields of gold as the sun goes down. The final lines of the song "You can tell the sun in his jealous sky when we walked in fields of gold" suggest that these memories have lasted long after the love affair had ended. The song is a bittersweet tribute to a romantic relationship that had occurred in a beautiful setting but had also come to an end.

The last part of the video, was the original parts of the castle. I also noticed a lot of Art Nouveau details in the first dining room ( It was probably a breakfast room), and in a few of the bedrooms. Also Art Deco.
The long cord hanging in the last bedroom you checked out, would be connected to a bell system, it was designed to call on the servants when they needed their service.
The dayroom with what you thought was the four seasons in the ceiling showed not just the 4 seasons but also images from other countries. (Pyramids are usually connected to Egypt and South- Amerika, and more of them are being discovered all over the world.) Astonishing work of art!! <3
I think I even saw a reference to the Freemasons in that ceiling.
The picture from WWII was what I belive, a picture of Mussolini at the start of his facist regime.
Old noble families often leaned towards facism at that time, due to their upbringing.
Not all of them, but some.
Some were forced to side with him, to not lose their properties and lives.
It was fascinating to see, the castle is like a mausoleum or a time capsule of days gone by.
I was surprised to see so little damage to it, especially to the furnitures.
Mesmerizing <3

I agree with you. This castle should be under protection. It's over a thousand years old. It's just mind boggling to even think they could build this beautiful beautiful castle. That dinning room ceiling is absolutely gorgeous. So many beautiful rooms. Thank you for sharing this castle with us

It would be much more rewarding. If the person that conducts these tours had a real knowledge of the era and the history they are discussing. It would add so much depth and at the same time avoiding giving off too many clues as to the location.
@Knightsbridge.
Honestly one of the most amazing castle exploration vidoes on youtube. Tha fact that you took as long as you needed to go into the most minor details is what makes your channel such a delight to watch.
Thank you for being respectful towards the castle, its history and its owners.
@heidigordon1868
I am binge watching your European castle tours. I love old places and stepping back in time imagining how the residents lived, worked and played. Thank you for doing these wonderfully done guided video tours of these lovely old places and for taking me back in time.

I would absolutely love to go along with you guys to do what you do. I am a doctor but it wasn’t until after my education that I realized how much I love history. I am so envious that you get to spend your days exploring. Thank you for showing us these amazing relics of history
@Tracy_R

The absolute beauty of this Castle takes one’s breath away! Such a shame the family has left it to ruin. The incredible antiques left behind is unimaginable. Thank you for bringing us on this journey with you.

That would have to be the most amazing finds yet. This one is right up there. Loved the the wall art. Amazing stuff left behind. I felt that those bedrooms and the adjoining dining rooms were dedicated to certain family members over the years. As there seemed to be certain previous pictures of family who may have had those rooms in their lifetimes. And those TUNNELS! oh my gosh it's another world down there, and rather creepy too. Fabulous video. This one won my heart
