I think it’s the other way round. Mark Knophler is the greatest guitar player. He writes everything too.
You are the absolute GOAT when you have Eric Clapton as your backing guitarist.
Ain't that the truth.
That's like having Floor Jansen as your backup singer.
Does SHE knows whom hat is?
and one with eric as rythm, phil collins on drums and sting as chorus... live
I'd forget how to breathe and passout during rehearsal....
There is only one Mark Knopfler. Absolute virtuoso on guitar and songwriting. Welcome to the incredible world of Knopfler and Dire Straits.
Virtuoso he is , for me he has to be in the group with Gilmour, SRV, Beck ETC. all just behind Hendrix of course
@@swfcocs1 the joys of music is the fact it's subjective. Knopfler is the greatest of all, to me. Noone else ever inspired me like him to pick up a guitar. So Hendrix et all, whilst are out of this world, Knopfler's style and songwriting is preferable to me. There is no best of course.
@@xxFORDIExx of course, similarly for me David Gilmour is my favourite, for me he expresses emotions better than any other guitarist, as for best or greatest I tend to go with what other virtuoso have to say as well as my opinion, which is why I would go for Hendrix but as you said the beauty is the subjectiveness
This coincided with the popularity of CD players in the early 80’s. It was almost compulsory to own the album of the same name on CD. (P.S. Lovebites were SO good live I’m going back again in September for the Judgement Day tour!)
I always hear this as a duet. Mark's vocals are the dying thoughts of a wounded soldier, his guitar is sharing his feelings.
This is, in my humble opionion, one of the greatest songs ever written. So emotional, so full of angst and meaning.
So many of Mark's songs are candidates for the greatest songs and greatest performances of all time...
The great thing about Mark Knopfler and Dire Straits is that he lets the music take precedence over his voice. He's one of the world's greatest guitarists and his songwriting & storytelling are unrivalled. Great band. Great frontman and brilliant music. Big shout out to the one and only Eric Clapton who accompanied Mark here. Another one of our greatest ever guitarists.
No disrespect, but with his limited vocal style, the music has to take precedence
@@jameswiglesworth5004 Yes, and it sure does, in bucket loads!
Many people have written great songs about the futility of war and dying for someone else's cause, but this is probably the best of them all.
That fingerstyle playing is why he gets such amazing and expressive tone control. He can play fast, but even when he's playing slowly he gets such feeling out of a single note that half a dozen of them tell you a whole damn story. You should definitely check out some other Dire Straits tracks: there literally isn't a bad one. Telegraph Road is a REAL epic, while Sultans Of Swing is probably their most iconic track and the 'Alchemy Live' version of it is just mind-blowing.
or Coming Home, that's totally instrumental ;-)
I can tell you totally get what makes Dire Straits so special. I’d suggest checking out ‘News’, Where Do You Think You’re Going?’, or ‘Let’s Go Down To the Waterline’ live at Rockpalast in 1978. Also excellent are the performances of ‘Sultans of Swing’ and ‘Telegraph Road’ from ‘Alchemy Live’. Even if you don’t react to them, you should hear them. You get several different sides of the band, especially from 1978 when they were young. There is definitely some similarities between Knopfler and David Gilmour of Pink Floyd, and nowhere is it more pronounced than on ‘Brothers In Arms’: Both are excellent at wrapping melodies around chords, and both are very tasteful players who never make the music sound ‘busy’ by playing too many notes when they’re not called for. I hope you choose to react to some of my suggestions, though; almost no one reacts to the ‘78 Rockpalast show, and it’s a killer show from an era when they were young and hungry-not yet huge rock stars. EVERYBODY reacts to ‘Sultans’, and, quite frankly, it’s overdone.
I very much like Tunnel of Love. The Alchemy album is where I first heard it.
@@riphopfer5816 absolutely Rip
Chris Rea , is another great finger picker on slide guitar .
In "Sultans of Swing" Mark mentions a rhythm guitar player not knowing how to make his instrument "cry and sing," that, to me, epitomizes his guitar style. So much emotion, such a remarkable talent.
10:36 The legend that is Eric Clapton playing second guitar to the enigma that is Mark Knopfler truly shows how fantastic Mark truly was and will always be, a true guitar legend. The only guitarist I've ever heard (and I'm 65 years young) who can actually make me cry when his guitar is singing! And that's the only way to describe it he makes the guitar truly talk in a way that nobody else can......fan bloody tastic!!.
There are tears of joy when I here several of Marks songs. We have been truly blessed to have experienced his talent. (And I don't believe there's a god...)
I believe this song was inspired by the Falklands conflict and is sung from the point of view of a mortally wounded soldier and his last minutes with his mates who didn’t desert him …..
Yep. It's a classic anti-war song but written more cleverly that banging the hippy drum of pacifism. It was written from the perspective of a dying soldier. But no judgement, just the poignancy of the moment and the insanity of putting our loved ones in this position of sacrifice left for us to ponder.
when Mr.Clapton stays in the back and plays a bit rythm..your the man.
Love how Eric Clapton was able to restrain himself and let Mark Knopfler do his epic work! ;-) Two of the best guitar players ever!
Such an emotional piece of music. Did you notice EC was there too?
Parece que no!. Increíble actuación de D.S. con Eric como guitarrista rítmico. Aparte, esa noche tambien tocaron W.Tonight.
Don’t forget to take a look a the official video. The studio version is so delicate and powerful at the same time!
Rather go with the full length album (CD) version!
This song is so special to my heart. Telegraph Road, and Romeo & Juliet are beautiful too. Mark Knopfler’s guitar playing is unmistakable once you know it.
His tone is incredible, both on the guitar and his voice.
The Dire Straits performances to watch are the Alchemy Live versions of Sultans of Swing or Telegraph Road
And tunnel of Love live Wembley
Agreed. The Alchemy version of Telegraph Road is an absolute gem and shows just what good musicians the other band members were. Would love to see a reaction to it.
One of the best guitar players ever
He not only plays with bare hands, but also he's a lefty, but still plays on right-handed guitars.
He may be "a lefty" politically (I would hope so with his upbringing) but he plays right-handed, he may be ambidextrous in other things but he still plays right-handed.
Mark Knopfler makes such great use of a volume pedal too, striking the note with the volume right down then bringing it up so the note swells in. Beautiful stuff.
I strongly recommend checking out Mark Knopfler, Sting, Eric Clapton and Phil Collins performing Money For Nothing at the Music For Montserrat concert at the Royal Albert Hall. A fantastic, fun live performance of a very different song to this one from Mark's Dire Straits days although the two were on the same album.
Among David Gilmour’s five favorite albums is Dire Straits’ self-titled debut. Knopfler is epic, as a guitarist and a storyteller. Six albums as Dire Straits, nine movie soundtracks (including The Princess Bride), nine solo albums (working on #10). There’s more! A deep rabbit hole!
In just about every Dire Straits song, it's as if MK is singing a duet with his guitar. It's like a voice. Eric Clapton just stands in awe!
Mark Knopfler and Eric Clapton together this is classic of world music...Show , show man's .
Absolutamente fantástico , Mark se emociona todas as vezes que toca esta música ...Show .
Great selection! Nice to see this majestic track get the love it deserves.
Thank you for appreciating my favourite song of all time. Your respect and articulation did it justice. I still can't watch Brothers in Arms without crying!
That's pretty much exactly what the album version sounded like, too. My mother had it on cassette, back in the day.
If You didn't know,now you know. Legends no doubt .
influenced by Pink Floyd? why don't you recognize that they have their own unique style, with their own unique ideas and technique?
Watch mark pick the strings he picks them the opposite way than other guitarists does. He pick in the upward motion
The greatest guitar player ever
Thank you to RUclips, for moments like this.😊
His performance should be the 8th wonder of the world 🥺
I reckon this is the best written song in music history and even the guitar sounds tell the story along with the vocals
Amazing song and an absolute masterpiece
Bro, so epically bitter sweet 😢🔥🔥🔥🔥
The insane thing about Mark Knopfler (lead singer/guitarist) is that not only does he pick with his fingers, he plays with the wrong hand - he is left-handed but plays right-handed. Insane talent
Playing is sophisticated to that point where LESS IS MORE...
Hi millie Dire straits I boughtit in 86' elghty six it was number 1 in england and Usa, nothing song such as money for in so far away, they arrived the number 1 in england and usa. Reaction excellent millie ❤️🇬🇧
Mark Knofler always still supports the old British soldiers charity causes, I imagine as he's from that British generation whose parents, teachers, health service and pretty much anyone that age was in ww2.
Millie, did you notice that Eric Clapton was playing backing? Both of the two greatest guitaristsa of all time playing together.
March 30th 2024 that was very emotional, that was very emotional. You can hear it in his voice she could see it in his eyes you could hear it in his guitar.
Its obvious that this song brings Mark to tears as well as everyone who has experiences serving their country, in any and every country the people who fight the wars and die are why Mark wrote this.
That fella with the beard is pretty good at guitar too. 😉
You need to listen/react to Dire Straits sultan's of swing alchemy live - it's probably the best live performance of all time
The song becomes even more powerful from the venue and occasion. Right before the start of this clip he ways talking about he performed this song and that is what got him BANNNED from South Africa.
crowded house said when they tour great britain they are the best voices singing from the crowd and in harmony typical Celtic sounds. they sing so very well Neil Finn said. mark Knopfler was able to announce his soul in this song, not many people can do this world wide, only other for me is Van Morrsion and to a lesser extent Eric Clapton.
DIRE STRAITS is the BEST👏👏👏
If ever a song could ever be cinematic, where the music & lyrics paint a picture in your mind, this one is on that list.
Watch the video for it, and definitely check out the other Dire songs. Knopfler is a legend, his ability for sonic contouring is exceptional, a result of his unique playing style.
I believe this song is about a soldier dying on a battlefield in the Falklands war. Hence the mood.
Nice catch on the Pink Floyd comparison - David Gilmour is another genius, like Mark Knopler,that can turn a guitar solo into a vocal....making it speak to your soul.
Yes, but not really an inspiration to mark.
This was my brother's favourite song, he's sadly not with us anymore so I just couldn't listen to this song until recently it was just so heartbreaking, now I'm ready to celebrate his life, dire straits are one of my favourite groups, I like the man's to strong about a dying man, thank you for your reaction
Did you listen AT ALL to the story he was telling? This is a heart-breaking song. Listen to it again. And this time pay attention to the story being told.
A masterpiece of a song.
That is pure Mark Knopfler. I don't think that Dave Gilchrist had any influence on this.Knopfler is probably the most versatile guitar player of any generation.
The original studio version reflects the meaning of the lyrics much better than this live version. Having said that, the music in this live arrangement is epic.
I absolutely LOVE this version. The live concert meant MK could play his heart out with some epic solos that the studio version cut short. Every time I hear the original album version it feels like something is missing. The final fadeout is a crime against art.
I am italian and there's little to comment or analyze, here we're talking about Mark and Dire Straits. They marked musical history with fire. to think that someone does not know them is hallucinating. Influenced by Pink Floyd? Listen to me change jobs, Pink Floyd are the greatest of psychedelic rock, of music made with 20-30 musical plans at the same time. Dire Straits are Roots Rock with blues, country and traditional music genres. They are vastly different..
I love so much Dire Straits and Mark Knopfler. I was lucky to see him in concert for his last tour.
Thank you for this beautiful reaction.
That entire album is amazing.. And timeless! You never get tired of listening to it....Mark Knopler never gets the credit he deserves sometimes....
Gabbie loves Dire Straits. Carly Simon's "Your So Vain", has background vocals by Mick Jagger. Worth a listen.
Did you reconized... Eric Clapton? Nice react 👍 i cry everytime when i listen this masterpiece of a Song
Mark Knopfler. One of the greatest lyrical guitarists ever! Dave Gilmour too.
How overwhelmed with emotion MK is at start of this gets me every time. He was really struggling to get the words out.
About the singing and guitar, it's like his voice recites the lyrics and the guitar does all the singing - two sides of one entity speaking in different ways emotionally, still telling the same story. It's at least as much about what's not said that what is said (in thelyrics). Sublime.
Do you Know, that one of the guitarrist is Eric "Slow hand" Clapton colaborating with his friend Mark Knopfler? May be two of the best guitar players in the world
This song was written about British soldiers and paratroops involved in retaking the Falkland Islands after Argentina invaded them in the 1980,s
Did you notice Eric Clapton playing Rythmn guitar for mark in the background?
The song tells the story of a soldier dying in the Anglo-Jamaican war of 1977. Many a good reggae artist died in that war.
This is my all time favorite song
Telegraph Road - Live or Studio version
Sultans of Swing - Alchemy Live performance
Tunnel of Love - Live or Studio
Romeo & Juliet - Live "A Night in London" BBC Performance
Being an old Marine myself and growing up an Air Force kid, this song literally saved my life (a story far too long for here), but this song came out at the end of my junior year of high school when I was hitting rock bottom.
I have listened to and watched this song at least 3 to 5 times a week since then. Every tour, he retools this song. Every performance brings out the tears I learned to stuff deep, deep, deep in my soul. Try and watch his "A Night in London" performance with a backing string quartet. As great as this performance was, the "Night in London" performance IS what this song was meant to be.
Enjoy perusing Mark's DEEP catalog...
Telegraph road (live )and tunnel of love (-alchemy live)are another masterpiece
This is the title track to a great album. You should give it a listen. ❤
All comsumate professionals make it look so easy. Mark always said he just 'picks the strings'..WOW. Always loved this.
Interesting you compared it with Pink Floyd, since Dire Straits and Pink Floyd are my two favourite bands and Mark Knopfler and Dave Gilmour my favourite guitarists by a mile. I think what they have in common is, they concentrate on the sound and they give the music time to breathe.
Private Investigation's is well worth a listen especially with headphones in the dark.
If you like this, then you should listen to Home Free's revision of this song.
The song is from the perspective of a dying soldier in the Falklands war. Without shouting or screaming, it makes such a strong anti-war message. I'd say the studio version conveys the message better but Dire Straits are always fire live.
Look up Mark Knopfler at Skavlan 2015 (the one that is 4 min 12 sec) where Mark shows how he learned his finger picking style.
Well, just a little tipp, if you liked this live recording of the song, you should have a look at him singing it at the 1997 charity concert Music for Montserrat. Absolutely epic.
I find it funny, and sad, that you smile at this song, and I cry. Listen to the studio version, it is better, you can actually understand what he is singing.
Hey Millie! Mark Knopfler is a guitar legend! A Master of pulling emotion from the instrument, as well as a master storyteller. If you want to appreciate his Genius, listen to Dire Straits "Telegraph Road" Live, or "Romeo and Juliet".
The guy is the master of all guitarists, on the same level as Gilmour, the 2 best.
The thing that makes Mark Knopfler a true master is the fact that he's left-handed but mastered a right-handed guitar to a level a lot of right-handed players can only dream of. One of the few guitarists that can make even Eric Clapton have to work for it.
If you like the fingerstyle guitar of Knopfler and that natural tone voice, then check out his amazing solo on "Sultans of Swing live Alchemy" version, it's truely mind blowing!
You are just so adorable! I love watching you. ❤
My uncle was kia and is buried at Sangro River War Cemetry, Italy, so this is special to me.
You can hear the amazing guitar playing it's a shame they didn't show more of it. Just knowing there is no pick involved in anything he does amazes me personally. How great do you have to be to have Clapton playing rhythm for you by the way.
My disc favorite.snd number in England.usa.Reaction excellent.millie🎶🎼🎸🎤🇬🇧🐕😅😘
Dire Straits, LOVEBITES, and "Back To The Future", you always find what I like!
"Brothers In Arms" is one of my all time favorite songs, it always gets me!
Mark Knopfler is one of the guitarists, who doesn't play it, he celebrates it (David Gilmour, Eric Clapton being another examples).
There are some pretty nice suggestions possible, I'll leave it at "Telegraph Road" (unless you don't react to "Sultans Of Swing", "Walk Of Life", "Money For Nothing", "Tunnel Of Love", or "Romeo And Juliet").
LOL, Eric Clapton and David Gilmour are mentioned more than once in other comments! That's purely coincidental!
Yes, you get callouses on the tops of your fingers. Ask any violinist or Cellist if you can look at their fingers just as much!
Awesome
Mark Knopfler the lead guitar man had an special sound when he played guitar. And his voice was very unique too. Dire was big in the 1980's, "Money for Nothing" was a big one for them....... A huge M-TV song... Lots of air play on the radio.... I realize this was before your time, but once again you show us how special YOU are... And we need to thank you for that!!!! I wish you only the very, very best...... The doggie is telling us they like the song!!!! Take care on crack on!!!!!
Millie great job with your reaction and analysis of the live performance of Brothers In Arms from Dire Straits.
The dog wanted more.
Dire Straits “Tunnel of Love” has one of the greatest guitar solos ever. That and Funkadelic “Maggot Brain.”
When Clapton is playing your rhythm section in the background - you know you've made it
Seen them in concert 88 Darwin Australia,one of my best concert,AC/DC my favourite concert
Lucky! I missed them in Mackay, still kick myself! 😢
The original video as mentioned many time is heart breaking, especially the soldier with his leg blown off and hanging by a thread
You have to watch the same concert, sultans of swing
To me I hear a lot more of a Jeff Beck influence than Pink Floyd in his performance.
His control of tone and texture makes his guitar sound as if it has a human voice.
Don’t think he was influenced by anyone.. I think he is only 3/4 years younger than beck and gilmour he is totally unique knofler, nobody sounds like him
Rip Jeff
I love this song! Love it as a song, but when you add the meaning of it, it is really powerful. But, somehow, mostly American s piss me off because vthey think it celebrates soldieds and military in general. Yes, it does celebrate the soldiers. The dead ones, no matter which side they were on. It is anti-war song.
As for Mr. Mark Klopfler goes, his lyrics are not 'in your face', you have to listen and think. That's why he is one of the greatest artists.
