"Green Fields" is the third single by British alternative rock band The Good, the Bad & the Queen. "Green Fields" is also the eleventh track on the group's 2007 debut album The Good, the Bad & the Queen (see 2007 in British music).
The song was released April 2, 2007 as the band's third single in the United Kingdom. The single debuted—and peaked—at #51 in the UK Singles Chart on April 8, substantially lower than "Kingdom of Doom" which had reached the Top 20 upon release in January.
In the album's review for NME, Hamish MacBain called the song "the best thing Damon's ever written." The Sun considered the song with Beatles-references, referring to the songs ability to "cast as a latter-day Lennon and offers wistful, woozy psychedelia as Strawberry Fields are replaced by green ones."

Up in the broad fields of the sky:”
