The Fields of Anfield Road is an adaption of the The Fields of Athenry song, incorporating aspects from Liverpool’s history. It had already been sung by Celtic fans prior to the adaption. The first two verses and chorus were written by Liverpool FC supporter Edward R Williams from Wallasey, Wirral, Edward (Eddie) was the lead singer of a band in the 60s (Eddy Falcon and the Vampires) and played regularly at the tower ball room, New Brighton. It is well known by older Liverpool fans a long time before the musicians got involved ,
the third verse – written by local musician John Power – was added in 2009 to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the Hillsborough disaster using Phil Thompson and Bruce Grobbelaar‘s vocals. The updated version of the song peaked at number 14 in the UK Singles Charts.
