    Вы даже не представляете, как Ваша музыка спасает меня прямо сейчас, в настоящее мое время... Когда не понимаешь, что происходит, кажется, что все отвернулось от тебя. Словно одна большая сущность забрала с собой все, что ты любишь, чем дорожишь, оставив за собой одни, греющие душу, но, вызывающие слезы, воспоминания... Когда нет надежды на возврат, ведь оттуда не возвращаются ни дети, ни взрослые. И остается только сглатывать, когда слышишь детский смех и закрывать глаза, чтобы увидеть вновь и вновь лицо ребёнка, которого видишь теперь только во сне и, смахивая слезу, отворачиваешься от тех, кто не понимает своего счастья, жалуясь на нерадивость своих детей. Ведь они -живы...
    Когда любовь твоей жизни остается лишь мечтой, и все, что у тебя от него остается - это вкус последнего поцелуя, который никогда, возможно, не повторится. Но ты молишься Господу, чтобы он, хотя бы он, был жив и здоров, чтобы Благословил его Господь. Спасибо Вам за необыкновенные песни!!!

    I remember, towards the end of the 90's, me, a young Moroccan at the time, living in the little-known town of "Taza" in eastern Morocco. I often took the old train towards an other city "Oujda", where I continued my studies. The journey, lasting nearly 3 hours, traversed almost desert-like landscapes, familiar to my eyes. To stave off boredom, I would slip a Dire Straits cassette into my walkman and let their songs play: "Where do you think you're going", "you and your Friend", "Telegraph Road", "Sultans of swing"... But when "Brothers in Arms" started, I don't know how or why, time seemed to stand still.
    And now, after 25 years, when I listen to this song, all those images come flooding back, and I feel that same sensation. For me, nothing compares to this Masterpiece.

      I always found this song so...calm, even I didn't understand the lyrics (I'm french) when I was 11 years old as you were. Probably, not understanding the lyrics made more simple to let my mind floating in the universe with the music...

      I know exactly how you feel Rob.
      My father was a regular serviceman in the Royal Marine Band during WW2. He played tenor sax and violin. When not on musical duties he aimed the ships big guns (a good mathematician) and was also ship's tailor.
      He saw HMS Hood sunk by the Bismarck and lost many friends that day. But he got his revenge. He was a big gun aimer on HMS Norfolk and sunk the Bismarck with a little help from his Brother's in Arms. He also escorted many convoys to Murmansk, that was dangerous work but he survived WW2 unscathed and was present when the Japanese surrendered. He claimed to have visited every country in the world with a coastline except the american continent as being a regular he had a long career and took part in many goodwill visits around the world playing on shore at functions and receptions - his band was very good at Glenn Miller numbers.
      In later life he stil loved all kinds of music, his only stipulation was that modern bands should be able to play their instruments in his judgement. His favourites were Mark Knopfler and Van Morrison, he even appreciated the Beatles and the Rolling Stones.
      We remember our fathers fondly.

    I have always loved the great works of Mark Knopfler since I was 18 years old. Back in 1988, I never forgot to constantly play cassette tapes with songs like "Sultans of Swing," "Money for Nothing," "Brothers in Arms," "Romeo and Juliet," and others.

    • @astiandprema3594

      Lagu "Brothers in Arms" karya Mark Knopfler dari Dire Straits memiliki makna mendalam yang sering dihubungkan dengan tema perang, persahabatan, dan kehilangan. Lagu ini diciptakan pada masa Perang Falklands antara Inggris dan Argentina pada tahun 1982, meskipun maknanya bisa mencakup konflik yang lebih luas.
      Makna Lirik:
      Kesedihan dan Penderitaan Akibat Perang: Lagu ini menceritakan perspektif seorang prajurit yang melihat kehancuran dan penderitaan yang terjadi selama perang. Frasa "These mist-covered mountains" dan "desert wastes" menggambarkan lanskap suram yang penuh dengan kesepian dan penderitaan.
      Persaudaraan di Tengah Konflik: "Brothers in arms" merujuk pada hubungan erat di antara para tentara, di mana mereka berbagi pengalaman pahit, ketakutan, dan pengorbanan dalam pertempuran. Ini mencerminkan persaudaraan yang terbentuk di medan perang, meskipun situasi di sekitarnya sangat kejam.
      Refleksi Kematian dan Kehilangan: Lirik juga mengandung rasa kehilangan dan penghormatan bagi rekan-rekan yang gugur di medan perang. "So many different worlds, so many different suns" bisa diartikan sebagai perbedaan di antara manusia dan cara hidup mereka, tetapi pada akhirnya mereka semua bersatu dalam kematian dan pengorbanan.
      Kritik Tersirat Terhadap Perang: Meskipun dinyanyikan dari perspektif seorang prajurit, lagu ini juga bisa dianggap sebagai kritik terhadap absurditas dan kehancuran yang ditimbulkan oleh perang. Ada elemen refleksi moral, di mana perang tidak hanya menyakiti prajurit tetapi juga kemanusiaan secara keseluruhan.
      Terjemahan (Versi Singkat):
      Berikut adalah beberapa potongan lirik dan terjemahannya:
      These mist-covered mountains are a home now for me Gunung-gunung yang tertutup kabut ini sekarang adalah rumah bagiku
      But we have just one world, but we live in different ones Namun kita hanya memiliki satu dunia, tetapi kita hidup di dunia yang berbeda
      There’s so many different worlds, so many different suns Ada begitu banyak dunia yang berbeda, begitu banyak matahari yang berbeda
      But we’re brothers in arms Namun kita adalah saudara dalam senjata
      Makna lagu ini sangat kuat karena menggambarkan kesatuan manusia dalam menghadapi penderitaan, meskipun sering kali dibagi oleh perbedaan politik dan geografis.

I'm 55 years old and has been listening to him since he started with the Dire Straits in 1970s. There are a lot of versions of this song out on video. To me this is the best version he ever put out. Again just my opinion. Thank you Mark Knopfler

In another room I read there have been 104,000 victims of land mines and uxo since 1975. 18% of the country is so contaminated it will take another 100 years before people can walk around without worrying it will be their last step. Add to this the 2 million Vietnamese civilians killed by the bombings and torture and massacres, the 1 million killed revolutionary fighters, plus all the horrors inflicted on villages in neighbouring Laos and Cambodia. Adds up to a LOT of wasted lives.

    I am a retired firefighter from USA. When I hear this song about the Brothers in Arms, I am reminded of my own Brothers in Arms in the Fire Service. I was from a department that had an exposure to some terrible cancer causing chemicals and most of my mentors and brothers in arms I served those years with are now deceased. In some cases I was on a shift of people that faced all the dangers and death and destruction and now I alone am left alive. He captures the feelings I have about my brothers and sisters, both those who are left behind and those who are gone. But I know the bonds that are forged in such circumstances, and that even though the brothers come from different worlds and many times they are very different kind of people, you know you share that bond of shared experience and trust that is created in time of danger and facing tragedy together.

      Veteran Brother, Hang in there and know they are near... for our loved ones are in all things in the realm of we all being Spiritual beings. I served in the Marine Corps during the Vietnam Era... lost a dear friend 9-16-1970 who was a Marine tank assault rifleman. Our birthdays were the same day just 2 years different. Lance Corporal William Franklin. As long as we continue on in life, as they would want us to... just give kindness somewhere to someone. They are closer to you than you think! Thank you for serving this Country we once had. Semper Fi! Namaste.

      I'm sorry, but I disagree and don't believe that is the message at all. For those who have served (I assume, perhaps incorrectly, that you haven't), this is more of a "love letter" to the people to the left and right of you as you face the enemy. I know, from experience, that you will never be closer to anyone else in your entire life than you are to your brothers in arms. These are the people that you would give your life to save; to not let down. Yes, we are fools to make war on our brothers in arms, but that is not our choice.
