Der beste von Fiddlers Green ist immer noch "I'll be there", dieser hört sich sehr nach REM an, finde ich.

pretty sure that fiddlers green is a reference to a place equivalent to a sailor's heaven.... far from the water and free from hard labour. My grandfather was a seaman, and used to say he deserved to find his fiddlers green. but he didn't drown so won't ever get to walk inland from the shores of the dead to a place where noone even knows what a 'godforsaken oar looks like' mind you he did like to rant a bit. and he looooved a tip of rum

its not based on any folk song, fiddlers green is a mythical tale of a place where sailors go when they dont die at sea, but this version was written about gord's young nephew who died too early due to heart failure and theyve rarely performed it live due to emotional impact

Last time I heard this song was about 9 years ago...on the way to my boyfriends (& and a good friends) funeral. I can still remember the feeling I had while listening to it...sad...crying...but such a great song. Everytime I hear this song I will remember him. He (they) will be remembered EVERY time I hear this song...Love and miss ya guys!

Lately, Gord's voice during shows has been less than spectacular. However, he sang this song perfectly. This has to be one of the saddest songs (lyrically) that I have ever heard. Is it based on actual events? Don't know. It's a powerful work though.
