    It's funny how I can hear a Mark Knopfler song I think to myself "that's my favorite song." Then I hear just about any other MK song and think "No, that one is my favorite." What an incredible talent and song catalog.

    This song still makes me cry over a lost/missed love. We were great friends, but there was always the sense it could be more. One night when I was at his place he put this song on and sat close behind me. The atmosphere was heavy with unexpressed emotion. It WAS that the time was wrong - we missed our chance. He died a few years later.

    I saw Dire Straits at Woburn Abbey on the most glorious day in June 1992. It remains one of the most wonderful days of my life, and im now 65 and still loving Mark's music. My son was born the year after that concert, and now he plays guitar too, and his father plays saxophone and flute in a Dire Straits tribute band! Thank you, Mark, for all the wonderful music. Very best wishes from Devon.

    cracking classic by Mark ❤
    Romeo and Juliet's timeless love left a mark, but today's love lives remain a puzzle - _still muddled by their message?_

    • @melodicRaconteursDen
      @melodicRaconteursDen Год назад +1

      _"What makes a relationship last", you say?_
      _Three marriages after, got a checklist, with no delay:_
      First, pick someone you're _grateful_ for
      Good to feel them _superior,_ never a _bore._
      Compatibility in _perversion_ simply a must
      Being normal in _bed,_ we'll quietly bust.
      Accept that you're _both_ crazy and mad
      _Apologize_ for everything, even when not that bad.
      No pride, be an idiot, _jokes_ will suffice
      _Disappointment?_ let it hit, won't be nice.
      _Listen_ when they speak, avoid labels, categories
      Express _fear_ gently, and _ease_ the disparities.
      Expect _imperfection,_ frustrations will arise
      _Crushes_ on others? just let them _fly by_
      Embrace your _inner child,_ don't be silent, shy
      Learn _attachment theory_ will come in handy, _oh my!_
      _Laugh at yourself,_ don't be defensive, be smart
      And _remember,_ love _can't_ fix all, so don't break your heart.
      Be prepared to _leave,_ but choose to _stay_
      Don't be desperate, it's not the only way.
      A good relationship, _patient_ journey worth taking
      With these as guide, your story won't be mistaken.
      _now, go ahead, make Romeo and Juliet feel envious!_

    When I was sixteen, I first heard Romeo and Juliet. Mark's voice and guitar… I began to dream day and night of looking into his eyes.
    My unconscious knew that sooner or later I would meet him.
    I stood in front of the poster pasted inside my wardrobe door and, looking into his eyes, I said to him “Mark, are you going out? Come to me?"
    After 16 years, Lui entered my shop in Venice.
    A fairy tale come true 💜

    The irony of Mark Knopfler writing the perfect love song containing the words "I can't write a love song the way it's meant to be"!. I'm sure many of us have our own Juliet (or Romeo or Jenny) that we can't do anything but love and miss and kiss through the bars of a rhyme, till we die, and this song perfectly encapsultes those emotions. Personally, I prefer the version from the "All The Roadrunning" live recording, with the superb piano intro and the electric guitar outro, but any versin of this that Mark sings brings a tear to my eye. Juliet, I miss you.

    Mark Knopfler made me buy a house in Scotland in the early 90's, after I watched 'Local Hero'. Being English, I expected a rough reception in the Highlands. The most welcoming, warm people I have ever met and the most tranquil time of my life. Don't always believe what you read. Never been sadder to leave somewhare. My telephone number had three digits and I felt transported to a more innocent time.

    What a muso (and great accompaniment).
    How is it that one man can bring so much to the world of music?
    So simple yet simply brilliant.
    Love ya work lad!
