    It's just so great to see the performances from this iconic show being released officially on RUclips (free of charge) for everyone to enjoy now, and all the future generations.
    Thank you Mark for this kind gift. You are truly a legend.

    👍I wish the whole Wembley '85 concert were restored now, especially since it couldn't be included in the Live Box. It's an iconic concert. However, better a song here and there than none at all. This is such a powerful song and sadly very up-to-date with what's going on in the world.😢🌎 Amazing MK & DS!

      Looking forward to Brothers In Arms and Tunnel Of Love from this show - incredible performances. I wonder if Expresso Love will also be released, along with some other songs that weren’t broadcast at the time?

      I love that album--when it came out on compact disk only, it inspired me to scrape together the money to buy a CD player. Is there actually such a thing as a "worse" track from Brothers in Arms? They're all good.

    The album version harks back to early Dylan, but live it’s more explosive with the drums. The flute takes it into Moody Blues territory. Excellent.

    Questa è la mia canzone preferita di tutti i tempi dei Dire Straits. Quelle chitarrate del ritornello mi fanno pensare che qualunque cosa sia accaduta nella tua vita non è stata invano, perché l' hai vissuta e ti ha insegnato qualcosa. E ora puoi vivere in base a ciò che hai imparato.

    The man's too strong
    I am just an ageing drummer boy
    And in the wars I used to play
    And I've called a tune to many-a-torture session
    Now they say I am a war criminal
    And I'm fading away
    Father, please hear my confession
    I have legalized robbery, called it belief
    I have run with the money
    I have a-hid like a thief
    Re-written history with my armies and my crooks
    Invented memories
    I did burn all the books
    And I can still hear his laughter
    And I can still hear his song
    The man's too big
    The man's too strong
    Well, I've tried to be meek
    I have tried to be mild
    But I spat like a woman and I sulked like a child
    I have lived behind walls that have made me alone
    Striven for peace
    Which I never have known
    And I can still hear his laughter
    And I can still hear his song
    The man's too big
    The man's too strong
    Well, the sun rose on the courtyard
    And they all did hear him say
    You always was a Judas, but I backed you anyway
    You may have got your silver, but I swear upon my life
    Your sister gave me diamonds
    And I give 'em to your wife
    Oh, Father, please help me
    For I have done wrong
    The man's too big
    The man's too strong
