I was going to comment on that just as I saw your post. He has a lot of guitars and he uses a lot of different guitars in a concert depending on the song. The tones that come out of those guitars is unbelievable.
“….tonight your beauty burns into my memory; the wheel of heaven turns above us endlessly…” This line may be among the most beautiful lyrics ever written! ❤
Mark and Emmylou are just the perfect chemistry ,like heaven n earth . Seamlessly natural . Pure talent ,no ego. Lucky to have heard them in my life. ❤
My God! Heard this tonight on our woodland deck, overlooking the river, the music cascaded down throughout the river valley, I sobbed……. Absolutely beautiful ❤
I’m there with ya Jill….sat on the river bank, here in Somerset, England, in the dark, a very warm summer evening/morning not ever wanting this priceless moment to end…
Each musician plays his or her part to perfection. No ego, no pissing contest, no big loud solos or using 10 different notes between chord progression. Just sheer love, mutual respect and admiration for one another as they allow their music to do the talking (or singing). Simply superb. ✝️🙏👍♥️🤗✝️
I have listened to it a thousand times and will forever, never getting old. It makes my heart feel joy and peace every time I listen. Thank you so much Mark and the whole team for such a beautiful song.
Ciertamente es una canción que te invita a escuchar muchas veces por su música apacible y de gran sonoridad. Es agradable al oído, sin estridencias. Muy melódica. Súper. Gracias .
If I was Mark Knopfler, I would be honored beyond comprehension to share the stage with Emmylou. If I was Emmylou Harris, I would be honored beyond comprehension to share the stage with Mark. What a perfect pairing of talent
Talk about laid back. No effort, sheer talent, taking time to let music do the work. Goes down so well it can’t be picked up. Heavy on the soul. Stays there. Thank you.
There are NOT many musicians they are raising up as a legend in her living time. But Mark Knopfler is really one of them. Thanks Mark, for your wonderful music that convoyed me since about 40 years (since dire straits time...) or more. Thanks also to your other wonderful musicians. The wonderful voice of Emmylou Harris and the others...... I love it.........👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Mark really has no peers on guitar and he knows how to put together a band whose music blends in a magical manner. The result is the best live music I've seen and heard.
I just found this song. It is the most beautiful music I’ve ever heard! I’ve been listening to it on repeat. It warms my heart. Thank you to such talented people to share their gifts with us. This song is a blessing ❤️
Knopfler has one of the best ear/feel/understanding of and insight into arrangement of any modern composer. Bringing a violin in for this tune, CONCEIVING of how eloquently it would support then carry the melody, it's almost magical. He does this with so many of his songs. He paints them the way an old master painted their portraits.
Totally agree with this. He's the total package. singer - songwriter - guitarist, pick anyone of these and he's the elite of the elite. It's transcendent to have all 3 in one.
You said it all! Except, don't he and Emmylou duet so well together! I've been a fan of each for many years, but it never would have occurred to me that their voices would blend so beautifully!
Monsieur Knopfler is like a good wine, the older it gets, the better it becomes. I have tasted it tasty, for years. Thank you Mr. Knopfler for the unique guitar sound.
There is so much cruelty, injustice and terror in the world we humans made. But also there is so much beauty! I am so thankful to be able to listen to such a divine music.
The harmonious contrast between Knopfler's monotonic vocals and Emmylou's soft, melodic timbre is just awesome. Two legends come together to make something unique and unforgettable. Thank you both.
Just love Knopfler. He has stayed true to himself through all these years. Great musician, and he seems to be a kind and sincere man. He makes beautiful music.
I disagree with the "monotonic" description of Mark's voice. He has solid technique and inflection, understands pitch well and his voice is warm and melodious. To really understand this , listen to his " Brothers in Arms" song, then play Metallica's rendition of the same song. And yes , Emmy Lou is a true legend!
I believe this Live Roadrunning series is the best all around music on the planet! Mark's superb guitar work is unsurpassed in my opinion. And of course the impeccible harmonies of Harris and Knopfler are outstanding. The other musucians that are involved in the project are outstanding as well. So much talent in one place! Worth listening to over and over again.
As do I, the quality is in a league of it's own, there's a lot of great music and musicians, Knopfler has carved out his own unique place. Better than the rest? Maybe, maybe not, but still my favorite and he surrounds himself with great talent
What makes Emmylou so amazing as a duet singer--she is PRESENT. She LIVES each song, each moment of each song. She is such an amazing emotional storyteller.
You just have to keep coming back to this. The best recording and interpretation. The whole band are outstanding and sheer magic by the best guitarist of all time.
For 50 years, I lived in a world of Shangri-La with my Bonnie until she was called by the Almighty to transcend above the blue sky. She now in a better place. This song reminds me how beautiful our life were from the first moments of our union until it ended with COVID. Each time I hear this song it takes me back to memories of dancing with an angel of such beauty. I will always love her and one day I will dance with her in our own Shangri-La💞💞💞💞
Two sublime artistes together, performing one of the best duets ever.The two voices blend together, warm and like velvet.This will be a classic in the future, forever being replayed.Would have loved to have seen this concert, a lasting memory.Would be great to see these two collaborate again for another album.
Cold evening in Scotland in bed with a dram listening to the best band that ever played,this guys fingers work magic ,if he was a doctor there would be no more illnesses thank you mark from the bottom of my heart🙏🙏✊
These last 4 decades, his poetry, his music .... unmatched (a few close seconds). Knopfler was "right there with me" when I graduated HS&College, married, had 2 children, divorced, remarried, another child, now grandkids..... and is STILL with me as husband and I look back at 35 yrs together. To you, Mark Knopfler ... much appreciation, gratitude and thanks for "sticking by me".
@@Mr.JoeBangles Always has been! He’s simply the greatest in my book! Mark always shined live. Studio just isn’t the same. He literally fed off of and appreciated the energy from his fans, and his maximum ability was shown and heard. His concerts were the best. Calling Elvis, Live on the night proves that! Walk of life, Heavy Fuel, every song, POWERFUL! Thank you Mr. Knopfler for all the awesome music and lyrics over the years! IT’s appreciated more than you can imagine ❤️
It's the end of a perfect day for surfer boys and girls The suns dropping down in the bay and falling off the world There's a diamond in the sky, our evening stone in our Shangri-La Get that fire burning strong right here and right now Its here and then its gone, theres no secret anyhow. We may never love again to the music of guitars in our Shangri-La Tonight your beauty burns into my memory The wheel of heaven turns above us endlessly This is all the heaven we got, right here where we are in our Shangri-La Tonight your beauty burns into my memory The wheel of heaven turns above us endlessly This is all the heaven we got, right here where we are in our Shangri-La. In our Shangri-La In our Shangri-La
Can t make it any better, soothing, warming, comforting, brings the spirit to different level. The gentle music, the harmony makes it so easy to let myself escape to all my best memories of life. Thank you for this peice of haven. ❤
What music should sound and look like! An absolutely exquisitely awesome experience. I'm in music heaven with the tone of Mr Knopfler's guitar and Emmylou's grace and presence. What a collection of talent on one stage.
Music of the very highest order. Two amazing artists and a backing band complimenting beautifully probably in awe of this majestic guitarist and Miss Emylou. Just perfect really is what I mean !
When someone can see and heard these great singer monsters playing and singing, one knows that there is a real beauty in the world. Thanks Emmylou and Mark, to be so fantastic!
never really considered myself a violin lover, but for 1:14..(6:25-7:39) I must say. I was blown away by the violin solo..Kudos to this band and especially Mark Knopfler for this masterpiece of music!!
I am & will always be a fan of Mark Knopfler since Walk of Life fame . Its soothing to the soul & lets you cast away all your worries albeit temporarily.
If you can make magic with music then Mark Knoffler has found the recipe. I have been a fan of Dire Straits and Marks solos for many, many years (I'm 68) seen the band live a few times and bought my son up to appreciate them but I really do think that this song has it all and more. Thank you so much Mr. Knoffler you brighten my days and are never predictable. Just love your music. 💖
So many comments....just love the way she comes in so understately...but yet so appreciated by Mark. A truly humble man...showing appreciation for other great musicians along beside him.
This song reminds me about my wife. It was her favorite song before she lost the battling to cancer, I wish I could change the hands of time, I miss her smiles, she was always there for me and our lovely daughter, and I never miss a moment with her, life could be so unfair most times, there is some pain, I will cry in vain but won’t let you know how I will feel yes, I will miss you to the core! but some times i wonder why bad thing always happen to good people. She’s always in our hearts.
This music so great that i'm cant imagine. I'm Russian and i can say that - Music has no borders. This is my favorite singer. God, bless the world... I'm happy now, and i wish the listeners are too... Peace for all brothers and sisters!
Hello Aleksandr, Really music has no borders. I'm on the other side of the planet, listening the same good music and sharing the same feeling. Greetings from Brazil. Peace for all of us.
perfect, just perfect with great music and voices, as we all need our Shangri-la, and deserve this quality of performance from Mark, Emmylou and his musicians as always.
This man takes my breath away. You hope and pray that the solos will never end. You wish you could communicate in a way to do the music and lyrics justice, but you can't. We are blessed to have his music in our lives.
Not sure how many times I’ve played this song. It is so soothing and the beat is captivating…very relaxing. My stress reliever after a long day at work.
Mark Knophler is Humble. The final bow is every musician who played. Indeed... Thank you for a moment in time that superceeds our time on this earth 🦄🌛
he's old win...never forget legend...he's iconic guitar works..amazing depthful voice...amazing simple lyrics...breath taking compositions...Sir Knopfler is a living legend in our musical world...
It's the end of a perfect day For surfer boys and girls The sun's dropping down in the bay And falling off the world There's a diamond in the sky Our evening star In our shangri-la Get that fire burning strong Right here and right now It's here and then it's gone There's no secret, anyhow We may never love again To the music of guitars In our shangri-la Tonight your beauty burns Into my memory The wheel of heaven turns Above us endlessly This is all the heaven we've got Right here where we are In our shangri-la This is all the heaven we've got Right here where we are In our shangri-la
May I point an observation in my thinking ... Don't look it as the Sun going down, think you are on a BIG BALL that is rolling away with your view of the sun
@@francisward9609 From memory, Francis. Stuart Duncan - violin, longtime DS-associate Guy Fletcher on keys, 96-er Glenn Worf on bass, Danny Cummings who played percussion on the last DS tour (and I saw him in my hometown Hilversum, Holland with a DS Legacy only some months ago), also 96-er Richard Bennet on 2nd guitar. Please anyone, add the remaining names. I saw this particular line-up in The Point Theater in Dublin after a 3 week bicycle trip from Newcastle. Short concert but great!
@@francisward9609 It's Matt Rollings on piano, Stuart Duncan on fiddle, Glenn Worf on bass, Danny Cummings on drums, Richard Bennet on guitar, Guy Fletcher on keyboards, and of course Emmylou Harris on the acoustic guitar.
I was fortunate enough to see this live at the Royal Albert Hall in London. As is mentioned below these excellent performers left their egos behind and delivered perfection.
This song always brings me to tears since I met a new love in my life. Our Shangri-La and the setting of the sun. Such a beautiful song to the end of a day.
One of my all time favorite songs - especially this live version. I love the way Mark Knopfler allows ALL of his musicians to shine and contribute to the overall masterpiece. This violin solo in particular is the best I ever heard anywhere. It gives me chills. It' magic.
Mark, you have been gifted with a genuine and masterful talent. And you have been gifted with a beautiful heart. Love Emmy singing with you, you completely complement each other. Never stop sharing your gift with the world.
Few things never get tiring. But SHANGRI-LA seems as fresh and enchanting now as it did the first time I heard it. Thank you Mark Knopfler, Emmylou and Band for a timeless masterpiece!
This is the first time i heard it and it doesn't make any difference to me. Actually the birds singing is far more beautyfull than this. OK, the birds don't play guitar but I do. And drums as well.
What a great piece of music, it amazes me how musicians can play with out a sheet of music , they know their instruments like it’s part of them , they play so naturally and effortlessly they play from heart and soul
Stuart Duncan's masterful fiddle/violin piece starting at around 6:26 is friggin' awesome. Really melds the entire feel/mood of the song together. I love this! Thanks for sharing! Bobby K.
This song/ performance is just mesmerizing. There can't be enough said about the technical expertise. But what I enjoy the most is it's feeling of utter humility and utter love. What a masterpiece.
Knopfler is truly one of the premier guitarists out there…such a sweet tone he conjures out of his instrument.
I was going to comment on that just as I saw your post. He has a lot of guitars and he uses a lot of different guitars in a concert depending on the song. The tones that come out of those guitars is unbelievable.
Can you imagine Mark and David Gilmour playing Brothers in Arms together. Two of the best guitarist ever
@@gibsalisburyhave you listened to his release of ‘local hero’ for kids cancer, mind blowing list of guitarists play on it
@@anethers7545 Yes I have it downloaded. Amazing
I lost my wonderful husband of 40 years. He died suddenly 3 years ago. These words and music, priceless. Thank you Mark.

I love Mark Knopfler’s music, so good for the soul 💖
The entire group are excellant together, such a beautiful song.

Shangra La is a state of mind..... This song puts me there
I listen to this song twice a day morning and evening when I walk along the beach and I am in another world for so many years now. Thank you MK
If I was Mark Knopfler, I would be honored beyond comprehension to share the stage with Emmylou. If I was Emmylou Harris, I would be honored beyond comprehension to share the stage with Mark.
What a perfect pairing of talent
I agree 💯
Mark was like the Eagles. He could play that slow beat easily listening, Or rock the house down!!!!!!❤️
Mark et Emmylou forment un duo fantastique de talents. Shangri-La est la consécration de couple idéal
Finally
Couldn't say it better myself... Let's share this evening with friends and family
I have a 2yr old grandson, and he's always captivated by the instruments and harmony, his teething troubles are soothed.

I disagree with the "monotonic" description of Mark's voice. He has solid technique and inflection, understands pitch well and his voice is warm and melodious.
To really understand this , listen to his
" Brothers in Arms" song, then play Metallica's rendition of the same song.
And yes , Emmy Lou is a true legend!
what a beautiful performance , Emmylou is soo amazing , those 2 made the world a better place , and what an amazing group of Musicians !
Emmylou Harris, the queen of country singers, will always be the best ever. She always sings wonderfully well in solo, in duet, in group🐦😘

One of the most beautiful songs I've heard form Mark with Emmylou.
A quote from Willie Nelson: "There are two kinds of men. Those who are in love with Emmylou Harris, and those who haven't met her."
I m in love but never met her x my quote but get it so much x
A line in this song is pure perfection "tonight your beauty burns into my memory" only knopfler writes songs of meaning
I‘ve heard this song so many times. It always takes me to another world, to my own Shangri-La. Thank you Mark.
Without a doubt about the most beautiful song I've ever heard.
I’ve just split up after three years and this song is so soothing to me thank you Mark and Emo
Thanks, Emmy Lou and Mark
A Duet is one of the most intimate things we can share musically. You both Rock this! ♡♡♡
This is the most relaxing music ever.. Anyone suffering stress or burnout should be prescribed this song.

I am & will always be a fan of Mark Knopfler since Walk of Life fame . Its soothing to the soul & lets you cast away all your worries albeit temporarily.
If you can make magic with music then Mark Knoffler has found the recipe. I have been a fan of Dire Straits and Marks solos for many, many years (I'm 68) seen the band live a few times and bought my son up to appreciate them but I really do think that this song has it all and more. Thank you so much Mr. Knoffler you brighten my days and are never predictable. Just love your music. 💖
So many comments....just love the way she comes in so understately...but yet so appreciated by Mark. A truly humble man...showing appreciation for other great musicians along beside him.
This song reminds me about my wife. It was her favorite song before she lost the battling to cancer, I wish I could change the hands of time, I miss her smiles, she was always there for me and our lovely daughter, and I never miss a moment with her, life could be so unfair most times, there is some pain, I will cry in vain but won’t let you know how I will feel yes, I will miss you to the core! but some times i wonder why bad thing always happen to good people. She’s always in our hearts.
Two icons singing a wonderful song with other great musicians. Musical heaven.
MK is one of my favorites. Love his stories, guitar work, and his style of singing. He only gets better!
This music so great that i'm cant imagine. I'm Russian and i can say that - Music has no borders. This is my favorite singer. God, bless the world... I'm happy now, and i wish the listeners are too... Peace for all brothers and sisters!
Hello Aleksandr, Really music has no borders. I'm on the other side of the planet, listening the same good music and sharing the same feeling. Greetings from Brazil. Peace for all of us.
@@MarcoGenicolo Agree totally, listening here in the US.....music reaches us all!!
Bless you, Aleksandr!
yeah true.. i'm from down under ... but above Australia .... i'm from the Philippines . his songs are great!
Well said aleksandr from Martin in Ireland, keep listen to this top class music mate🇨🇮👍👍
perfect, just perfect with great music and voices, as we all need our Shangri-la, and deserve this quality of performance from Mark, Emmylou and his musicians as always.
This man takes my breath away. You hope and pray that the solos will never end. You wish you could communicate in a way to do the music and lyrics justice, but you can't. We are blessed to have his music in our lives.
I would'nt have been alive without Mark's music..I owe him everthing!! ❤
Not sure how many times I’ve played this song. It is so soothing and the beat is captivating…very relaxing. My stress reliever after a long day at work.
Mark is not only a very good guitarist but a very good composer as well.
Mark Knophler is Humble. The final bow is every musician who played. Indeed... Thank you for a moment in time that superceeds our time on this earth 🦄🌛
he's old win...never forget legend...he's iconic guitar works..amazing depthful voice...amazing simple lyrics...breath taking compositions...Sir Knopfler is a living legend in our musical world...
It's the end of a perfect day
For surfer boys and girls
The sun's dropping down in the bay
And falling off the world
There's a diamond in the sky
Our evening star
In our shangri-la
Get that fire burning strong
Right here and right now
It's here and then it's gone
There's no secret, anyhow
We may never love again
To the music of guitars
In our shangri-la
Tonight your beauty burns
Into my memory
The wheel of heaven turns
Above us endlessly
This is all the heaven we've got
Right here where we are
In our shangri-la
This is all the heaven we've got
Right here where we are
In our shangri-la
thanks a lot dear John!
Great 👍
May I point an observation in my thinking ... Don't look it as the Sun going down, think you are on a BIG BALL that is rolling away with your view of the sun
Amen X 2!@@jesusalfaro2286
What beautiful lyrics..thank you Parth 🙏🏻
Her voice ! When she comes in ! Wow, Fantastic ! Mr Knofler is very, very good.
The musicians that are with him are brilliant
Does anyone on here have band members names the pianist and violinist in particular
@@francisward9609 From memory, Francis. Stuart Duncan - violin, longtime DS-associate Guy Fletcher on keys, 96-er Glenn Worf on bass, Danny Cummings who played percussion on the last DS tour (and I saw him in my hometown Hilversum, Holland with a DS Legacy only some months ago), also 96-er Richard Bennet on 2nd guitar. Please anyone, add the remaining names. I saw this particular line-up in The Point Theater in Dublin after a 3 week bicycle trip from Newcastle. Short concert but great!
@@bobstringa5433 thanks mate I love this song and the craft of the musicians
@@francisward9609 It's Matt Rollings on piano, Stuart Duncan on fiddle, Glenn Worf on bass, Danny Cummings on drums, Richard Bennet on guitar, Guy Fletcher on keyboards, and of course Emmylou Harris on the acoustic guitar.
I was fortunate enough to see this live at the Royal Albert Hall in London. As is mentioned below these excellent performers left their egos behind and delivered perfection.
You are lucky gem as ive to mention, you might think what i mean as a fool man.
This entire concert is one of the best I've ever watched. Pure magic.
Al vanaf ik een jong meisje was hield ik hier van nu ben ik 63 en nog steeds ben ik er weg van bedankt voor deze geweldige muziek❤
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤Eu tbm amo
What a pretty song. Like “Never seen blue like that before “ a song that describes just a day, when we are so glad to be alive.
Always loved this song... THIS version... WOW! The intro is amazing!
This song always brings me to tears since I met a new love in my life. Our Shangri-La and the setting of the sun. Such a beautiful song to the end of a day.
This is so good. August 2024
One of my all time favorite songs - especially this live version. I love the way Mark Knopfler allows ALL of his musicians to shine and contribute to the overall masterpiece. This violin solo in particular is the best I ever heard anywhere. It gives me chills. It' magic.
Matt Rollins on piano

Few things never get tiring. But SHANGRI-LA seems as fresh and enchanting now as it did the first time I heard it. Thank you Mark Knopfler, Emmylou and Band for a timeless masterpiece!
Vero
@@paolovignini7244ciao Paolo! 🙋♀️😍😘💘🍀
This is the first time i heard it and it doesn't make any difference to me. Actually the birds singing is far more beautyfull than this. OK, the birds don't play guitar but I do. And drums as well.
Per me è una delle 10 poesie musicali più belle del firmamento musicale mondiale!! Grande Mark !
The exquisite harmonization of voices & instruments brings us back into the Valley of the Blue Moon
I never had listened to this song. Everything is amazing: voices, guitar, violin, keyboards...
I loved the instruments, especially the violin. It was all amazing 😊
What a great piece of music, it amazes me how musicians can play with out a sheet of music , they know their instruments like it’s part of them , they play so naturally and effortlessly they play from heart and soul
Mark and his friends are a one of kind angelic blend of music and magic
Two of my most favorite artists, just perfect, thanks.
Stuart Duncan's masterful fiddle/violin piece starting at around 6:26 is friggin' awesome. Really melds the entire feel/mood of the song together. I love this! Thanks for sharing! Bobby K.
I cry with joy when I listen to this song .. Mark & Emmylou create music that touch your heart & soul
Great voices, an exceptional theme and great musicians. Thanks Mark and a kiss to Emmylou. Greetings from Portugal 🎈🎼💙💛
This song/ performance is just mesmerizing. There can't be enough said about the technical expertise. But what I enjoy the most is it's feeling of utter humility and utter love. What a masterpiece.
