Precisely - he's written songs talking against the very establishment that would award him that. For those who have taken pleasure from his music over the years, he's so far above many of those who did get made "Sir" - but knighted in our minds in a way!
I HAVE LISTEN TO HIS MUSIC SINCE I WAS 21 YRS OLD, I AM 64 YRS. OLD NOW, AND I STILL LOVE HIS MUSIC.. I LOVE THE SONG WHAT IT IS.. LIVE IN ROME... AND OF COURSE.. COYOTE.. WITH CARTOON 🤗🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🌼🌻
What I love about Mark's songs is that many of them get to your emotions in one way or another. Whether it's the pain and regret of a lost love brought to mind by Romeo and Juliet, or the peace of Why Worry, the uplifting nature of Love Over Gold, the sadness of Brothers in Arms or the sweet sorrow of If This Is Goodbye, I'm sure many of us have Knofler songs that have special meaning to us, and I hope this new album adds more entries to our "Best Songs" playlists. I was at the Dire Straits concert at Wembley Arena in 1985 - one of the best I've ever been too - and the music Mark was producing then was magical, and it's still as magical today.
I dedicate this album to my late brother who passed away 60 years old .Mother language greek .He always loved mark knoffler always since his early years .Never been to school ,he was speaking excellent english.I got most of his recorts.Τασσαρα μου μιάν ημέρα θα ακούσουμε μαζί Dire straits and Mark knoffler.
Just a great guy, a great musician, a grounded man that has not let fame screw his brain, like the fall of countless others... it's not just his superb music, but how he represents himself, shares his world and relates to others without the need to be ego-supreme. I have so much respect for this guy. Damn, I'd love to have a coffee with him...wouldn't we all?
Ok, a beer or two with me, and then haul him out to Quabbin Reservoir in Massachusetts, where 4 towns were eliminated in 1938 to provide drinking water for Boston.. My playground. Imagine the songs/stories he could come up with that with a little background!
What makes Mark Knopfler more amazing today than he was back in our day is his consistency. He hasn't changed his style or even his voice in over 40 years. His guitar playing remains consistent. He's been consistently unique since I first heard "Sultans Of Swing" when it first played on the radio, I was only 11 then, but it was one of my favorite songs that year and he has amazed me with every album. But with that said, Making Movies remains my favorite album of his.
Making Movies is the best DS album. Get Lucky and Sailing to Philadelphia are my favorite MK albums. All together, I'm with you Making Movies was the one that showed just what he could do. I saw him in Dallas 1980, in a very small place for Making Movies tour. I sat at a table 5 ft from MK. What a show. But I have seen 11 or 12 others. All great,
What a treasure this man is. I'm 66. Been a pro musician for almost 50 years. I am in total awe of Mark. A legend who truly deserves the love and respect of his fans. I love reading all the comments from his international fans. Gotta also love Glen Worf his incredible bass player!
Any other 15 year old, that listens to Mark Knopfler all day long? I can listen to him all day long. It’s some sort pf addiction. You can’t get tired of this... Went to see him in Antwerp. Probably the only 15 year old there.
I wonder how many people like his music like I do and if someone else in Argentina can spend a day without listening to any of his songs. One of the greatest musicians in rock history.
I’m so happy to see the gang back together making amazing music. Mark, Guy, Richard, Glenn, Jim, John and the rest. I absolutely adore this band and, of course, its leader. Can’t wait until November 16!!!!!
That trademark lead guitar and stylish vocals unlike anyone! He hits the notes like Stewart Copeland hits his drums!!! There is a surprise factor that keeps a listener glued to his stuff!
This is a form of magic, the music, the video, the evolution of Mark's songwriting. The songs are happy and tell a story, they are not like many which are born from pain and anguish. Every part of this is a journey which Mark graciously shares, it is a priveldge for those who appreciate life and music.
Wieder mal ein Beweis, dass Musik süchtig machen kann .... ... ein genialer Ohrwurm und komplett - bis zum letzten Ton - toll arrangiert ! Thank You Mark Knopfler You are my big Heart Hero :o)
There is "NO" guitar tone like Knopfler tone Strat, Les Paul, National, Martin, Tiesco, Danelectro or even dare I say his Monteleone he makes it all sound like Magic, thanks Mark been waiting for this one
I just read a Mark's interview for the Guitarist magazine when he says something like "playing less notes on a solo usualy says more". Well... He can do anything he wants and feels better about it, but I really miss his mighty solos like in the final part of Planet of New Orleans in live versions. Anyway, is aways good to see Mark making new stuff. Love you Mark.
Welcome Back, Dear Mark Knopfler,Sir !! Thank you for bringing my youth times back. Your Vinyl Albums and Cassette tapes are still with me,and I listen to them now and then.Stay blessed.
I have no reach of your deepest, most hidden emotions. There is no one in the world who would dare to reveal them, except our God, who can do everything and knows everything. Certainly, when he authorized his parents for his conception, his human materialization was already designed to be present in the world, with all his strength, intensity and greatness of feelings, expressed in his compositions and melodies that were played and enchanted in all corners and furthest points of this planet. Listening to you is like floating on top of each musical note, and in the ecstasy of this emotion, pleasure and love, there is no way to doubt that you keep, within yourself, something very grand and special that only God could reveal. Gratitude and God for allowing me to approach HIM, as I approached you. HE WHO CAN EVERYTHING AND EVERYTHING SEES! I bow to your designs, saying in a loud voice, imagining overcoming the sound barrier, but not your light Mark! There is no one on this planet with your talent and genius. You are incomparably unique! 🎸🌘👏👏👏
I have described Mark as a mix between Dylan and Clapton but he is so much more, a real individual with amazing musical talent, he is Mark Knopfler and still going strong.
imagine being so good in entire career, that you're actually getting better everyday, just a bit. That's what Mark does, and that's what all of us should strive for.
Merci pour tout Monsieur KNOPFLER.. Cette fois-ci je ne raterai pas l'occasion de vous voir sur scène pour la première fois de ma vie.. From Paris with love..!
La même chose ! Non pas vraiment, je l'ai vu en 2015 et j'ai cru rêver ! Le son de sa guitare est magique... Instant suspendu ! From France with love ! ;-)
It's starting to hurt. This guy's music has been at the forefront of what I like for most of my life, and I realize he's turning 70 this year. How much more time do we have with this master lyricist/musician? And that includes myself, as I am going to be 58 this year. As Rodney once said: "58, I could go tomorrow. And I hope I go tomorrow, I haven't gone today yet."
and that's why it becomes so important to be able to see him live this year (possibly the last regular tour by MK), I've gor my tickets already -10.07. Krakow Arena
I walked into Sunrise Records here in Thunder Bay this morning and was delighted to find Mark's new album! Today is a good day! Thanks for all the years of awesome tunes Mark!
I saw him live in 2015 and I'm gonna see him again next year. It was def worth the money it was such an amazing experience the energy in the room just grabbed your soul and gave it a tight hug. Most underrated guitar player. His stories in between songs were awesome too! He def still has the magic and I think he always will. Wish he wasn't getting older so he can always be around. But through his music he always will be.
Ok Mr. Knopfler, it is incumbent upon you to have one more tour so I can see you before either you or I die. At the very least, please keep cranking out the albums & beautiful stories for us to share, with the God given guitar abilities you have, for as long as the good Lord will allow.
This guy does not get the credit he deserves as a song writer, forget the fact he may very well be greatest guitar player to grace gods green earth, incredibly underrated.... simply the best
The landscapes reflect the sober mood of advanced age while the bike tearing through the tranquility bears the evergreen mark of the man. I have enjoyed this album very much.
What is interesting about Knopfler is he is one of the very few advanced guitarists whose playing actually connects with people. That cannot be said of Steve Vai, Satriani, or 100 other tech heads from the 80’s who play 1000 notes when one will do. Proves again that less is more.
You have made my day even better then it was, with your Amazing new album, I love this, your new jazz style 🎺... Looking out my window, seen the leaves comming down, in the autumn wind, in different color's.. And listen to your music..and song....Good On You Son..!!! Thanks for share this Great new album 🎵🎷🎺🎸🎵🎤🎸🎷🎵 Friendly regards from Denmark DK.
Time for Mark Knopfler to be made Sir Mark Knopfler. Agreed?
Yes - Absolutely - who can we petition for this
And what's the plus of being called Sir?
Precisely - he's written songs talking against the very establishment that would award him that. For those who have taken pleasure from his music over the years, he's so far above many of those who did get made "Sir" - but knighted in our minds in a way!
I agree. He made milestones in music. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
in the service of the queen,lolo,be a curse.
Dire Straits was the soundtrack of my adolescence. As I enter middle age, its comforting that Mark Knopfler will still be there.
We love you Mark Knopfler, since the early 80s! Came up with you man, some of the best music of the times. !
❤❤❤❤❤
You're loved, Mark. I love you. from SE Texas
As soon as they find the medicine to prevent dying, give this man the first dose!
Yes hes 70,getting up there,i will breakdown when he passes,is there a dr.in the house???mark needs the LIVE 4EVER medicine,soooooon
ok baby
(She's allready exist).😀.
☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️☁️
YES... GIVE THIS MAN FIRST VACCINE.. 🌼☺️🌼☺️🌼☺️🌼☺️🎸
I HAVE LISTEN TO HIS MUSIC SINCE I WAS 21 YRS OLD, I AM 64 YRS. OLD NOW, AND I STILL LOVE HIS MUSIC.. I LOVE THE SONG WHAT IT IS.. LIVE IN ROME... AND OF COURSE.. COYOTE.. WITH CARTOON 🤗🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🌼🌻
Самый искренний и самый талантливый .Скромный и настоящий. Вкуснее гитары не слышал.Песни волшебные по мелодичности и восприятию.
Браво!!!👍👍👍

May his soul go straight to music paradise 😎❤️
The legend is Back!!! In love with this!😍😍
Just another beauty from the man

It's be great to have a good shot of heroin with him
szzzaa,zaaz,,@\@@,dolorsl ñita😜😜😜😜😜😜
tea an a jam ....
Ok, a beer or two with me, and then haul him out to Quabbin Reservoir in Massachusetts, where 4 towns were eliminated in 1938 to provide drinking water for Boston.. My playground. Imagine the songs/stories he could come up with that with a little background!
Coffee,then snuggle up to him...
Listening to him during this awful 2020, he makes you feel better.
Thank you, Mark

@@nathanwhitten8950 Can someone please explain why Making Movies is the best? I've heard this all my life, just curious.
Hes just one of those One in 10 Million musical genius
Gines Nicolas Ortiz Use Google Translate :)
Подарил свой талант миру. Спасибо тебе, Марк!
what a good day ! mark knopfler's new song from new album with video clip. Thanks mark, We had missed you.:)
Yes, it's true ! Lots of people had missed Mark.
Certainly, he should be titled as Sir Mark Knopfler, a title he aptly deserves by now Genius of a musician.
Love this vid - Bunch of ol' guys havin' fun, makin' music & livin' the dream:). MK is awesome!
Polished, professional, tight band, upbeat, good natured, good on you Mr. Knopfler.
Mark Knopfler on his bike ??? Awesome and amazing too, (Sir) Mark Knopfler thank you for this awesome and amazing Video. !!!!!! ❤❤❤😮😮😮😊😊😊
Those old folks give an impression of serenity, it's soothing. It's been my drug for a while, now. Thank you Mark, this is why you are the best.
What a treasure this man is. I'm 66. Been a pro musician for almost 50 years. I am in total awe of Mark. A legend who truly deserves the love and respect of his fans. I love reading all the comments from his international fans. Gotta also love Glen Worf his incredible bass player!
Mike Minton Treasure is right. Nobody like Knopfler. (Also, GW’s brother Neil was a great drummer back in the day)
Thanks for the info about GW's brother. I think Glen is a very creative and vastly underrated player. The perfect guy for Sir Mark!
Any other 15 year old, that listens to Mark Knopfler all day long? I can listen to him all day long. It’s some sort pf addiction. You can’t get tired of this... Went to see him in Antwerp. Probably the only 15 year old there.
The bottomless creativity of Mark Knopfler! He always keeps his dignity and still rocks the house!
I have had the pleasure of seeing Mr. Knopfler live on two occasions. Very cool and his bands were great 😀😊
It doesn´t even fell like a monday anymore! Have a good Marksday everyone.
You too!!
Good song. Not because its Mark - because its good music. Something we desperately need in the states right now.
We are blessed to have knopfler in this world... Fascinating as usual
I will simply second that!
@@francobarni4136 I'll triple it ;)
❤️
Can't resist Mark Knopfler music. Unique and beautiful as always. Thanks again !!! :)
This man is definitely a great legend, his music gets better and better!!👍🎼🎵🎶🎹🎤🎸🎷
I wonder how many people like his music like I do and if someone else in Argentina can spend a day without listening to any of his songs. One of the greatest musicians in rock history.
I’m so happy to see the gang back together making amazing music. Mark, Guy, Richard, Glenn, Jim, John and the rest. I absolutely adore this band and, of course, its leader. Can’t wait until November 16!!!!!
Thank you Mark for keeping music alive. Nowadays in this electronic era, you again showed music is alive.
Thank you Marc, for being a LocalHeroWorldwide!!! You are part of many people's lives!
*Your music rocks my soul Mr. Knopfler!! I'm digging your vibes again big brother.*
Dire Straits , Mark Knopfler...my first hero, my first love....40 years now....keep walking Mark....greetings from Thessaloniki Greece....
Πες τα Χρυσόστομε :) ενας και μοναδικός.
αυτά είναι..
Έτσι!
Great comment. U are also the same as me
Love Mark Knopfler. Love everything he does. One of the best guitarist ever.
That guitar always gives me goosebumps :o) Can't wait for the album. Fan since early 80s
That trademark lead guitar and stylish vocals unlike anyone! He hits the notes like Stewart Copeland hits his drums!!! There is a surprise factor that keeps a listener glued to his stuff!
I couldn't stop smiling through all of it!
Some great Mark Knopfler again :D
Good on you Mark.
This is a form of magic, the music, the video, the evolution of Mark's songwriting. The songs are happy and tell a story, they are not like many which are born from pain and anguish. Every part of this is a journey which Mark graciously shares, it is a priveldge for those who appreciate life and music.
Peter Margetic I agree with you and like your comment !
Yes , one of the great storytellers of our time with "Boom, like that" at his best.
And the songs are never flat.
Замечательный певец, благодарю! Получила истинное удовольствие!!!❤❤❤
THAT Guitar TONE is unmistakable! The Voice and snaky groove, Yeah! Looking forward to hearing the rest in November 2018!
Made so many geordies proud with his work , blessed by us all .
He exudes talent. Each day I have to have MK’s music. Bless you and live on my friend.
What sets him apart is that his songs are about something. Not just "I lost my lover " like today's manufactured stars.
Wake up and see new Mark Knopfler stuff, thats a good morning!
Cool shots of him riding a retro bike ,and the stunning countryside.
Not everyday such legends are born. You sir made my childhood awesome
Thank you Mark, and big thanks for your friends ...💖🎸🎶👌✨💖🙋friends who play with you!!
Nothing better could have happened today.
Wieder mal ein Beweis, dass Musik süchtig machen kann ....
... ein genialer Ohrwurm und komplett - bis zum letzten Ton - toll arrangiert !
Thank You Mark Knopfler
You are my big Heart Hero :o)
Love this album. Mark's still got it in spades.
You're a genius Mark!💕
A great song!🎶🎸🎶
Thank you so much !
Living legend. Makes a song and it instantly becomes a classic!
❤️ Great guitar sound and rhythm. Thank you Mark Knopfler. ❤️
Glad you are back!!!👍👏👊🤗 Sounds awesome. 🙌🙌 Thank you for entertaining us again. Good to see you again. Looking good!!!💪👍👏👊. Love ya!!💕💕😉😎
There is "NO" guitar tone like Knopfler tone Strat, Les Paul, National, Martin, Tiesco, Danelectro or even dare I say his Monteleone he makes it all sound like Magic, thanks Mark been waiting for this one

Welcome Back, Dear Mark Knopfler,Sir !!
Thank you for bringing my youth times back. Your Vinyl Albums and Cassette tapes are still with me,and I listen to them now and then.Stay blessed.
What an intro! Brings tears to my eyes. He's one of the most melodic guitarists ever and he recorded with the legendary Chet Atkins. Says everything.
This song just keeps getting better and better with repeated listens. Those guitar licks just burn an impression in your brain.
I have no reach of your deepest, most hidden emotions.
There is no one in the world who would dare to reveal them, except our God, who can do everything and knows everything. Certainly, when he authorized his parents for his conception, his human materialization was already designed to be present in the world, with all his strength, intensity and greatness of feelings, expressed in his compositions and melodies that were played and enchanted in all corners and furthest points of this planet.

HE WHO CAN EVERYTHING AND EVERYTHING SEES! I bow to your designs, saying in a loud voice, imagining overcoming the sound barrier, but not your light Mark!
There is no one on this planet with your talent and genius.
You are incomparably unique! 🎸🌘👏👏👏
He's in a rare category. Guitarists know who it is after the first two notes. Just brilliant.
WOW! Thats the sound quality!!! My headphones sing like never before!!!!
I have described Mark as a mix between Dylan and Clapton but he is so much more, a real individual with amazing musical talent, he is Mark Knopfler and still going strong.
Mark knopfler is mark knopfler one and only
He is nothing like Dylan or Clapton...
Put some Chet Atkins in too.
...more like J.J. Cale
To me, Clapton and Knopfler have very different guitar styles.
WHY YOU SO GOOD MARK?!
imagine being so good in entire career, that you're actually getting better everyday, just a bit. That's what Mark does, and that's what all of us should strive for.
Mark should you read this, thank you for such an uplifting song.
Merci pour tout Monsieur KNOPFLER.. Cette fois-ci je ne raterai pas l'occasion de vous voir sur scène pour la première fois de ma vie..
From Paris with love..!
La même !!
Idem. Ça va être énorme =D
La même chose ! Non pas vraiment, je l'ai vu en 2015 et j'ai cru rêver ! Le son de sa guitare est magique... Instant suspendu ! From France with love ! ;-)
Oui c est magique la première fois et pour moi c était en juin 2015 pour Tracker!!
Concert mémorable en 1979 à Paris plus tte jeune continue d’apprécier merci pour ses bons moments
Thank You so very much forever Mark.
a bunch of old geezers having a great time-this is Music at its very best-riding close to the white line again Mt Knopfler LOVE IT!!
Lapsesta saakka olen kuunnellut musikkiasi ja kuuntelen kuolemaani saakka. Kiitos kaikesta terveisiä 🇫🇮

Beautiful, Mark has a distinctive sound that is timeless..
Qué temazo. El álbum promete. Larga vida a Mark. Nos vemos en Valencia!

Sir, you have amazing talent to create beatiful melodies.
Nice username!
Thanks :)
Please keep pumping out more music Mark. The world needs more of your music!
Ok Mr. Knopfler, it is incumbent upon you to have one more tour so I can see you before either you or I die. At the very least, please keep cranking out the albums & beautiful stories for us to share, with the God given guitar abilities you have, for as long as the good Lord will allow.
This guy does not get the credit he deserves as a song writer, forget the fact he may very well be greatest guitar player to grace gods green earth, incredibly underrated.... simply the best
What a great Monday morning. Mark, you have been my hero since 1979, the Communiqué year. Thanks for the upload. Loved the outdoor footage, too...
Zs
Mark is on my top 3 male vocalists of all time. His voice is precious.
That was awesome. Looking forward to the documentary by Henrik Hansen!
The landscapes reflect the sober mood of advanced age while the bike tearing through the tranquility bears the evergreen mark of the man. I have enjoyed this album very much.
The best of all . This is what we call music 🎻🎸🎷🎹
What is interesting about Knopfler is he is one of the very few advanced guitarists whose playing actually connects with people. That cannot be said of Steve Vai, Satriani, or 100 other tech heads from the 80’s who play 1000 notes when one will do. Proves again that less is more.
Another part of Mark’s journey in music. Just brilliant! I hope you are going to tour Australia again!
Zdecydowanie najlepsza solowa płyta mistrza nastrojowej gitary!
You have made my day even better then it was, with your Amazing new album, I love this, your new jazz style 🎺... Looking out my window, seen the leaves comming down, in the autumn wind, in different color's.. And listen to your music..and song....Good On You Son..!!!
Thanks for share this Great new album 🎵🎷🎺🎸🎵🎤🎸🎷🎵
Friendly regards from Denmark DK.
Голям мъж,голям певец,голям китарист, голям човек! Жив и здрав! Благодаря!
Ho my God, this song is so wonderful. Your new album will be great I think. I hope to see you in concert, at Bordeaux, France maybe ;)
Super Mark knopfler 💗💗💗💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
so many years and you can still tell just from the guitar that its Mark..
He´s back!!!The best musician on earth!!!Great music!!!looking forward for the new album!!!
