THE GREEN FIELDS OF FRANCE The Fureys A Scottish-born Australian called Eric Bogle, wrote ‘The Green Fields of France’ in 1976. The song is also known as ‘No Man’s Land’, and as this alternative title suggests, it’s an anti-war song. The singer muses at the graveside of a soldier who died in 1916: Willie McBride, and wonders about his death and burial, and ponders over the futility of it all.
