My late husband loved both of these great musicians. He played All the Roadrunning so much. I chose this song for his memorial service. Wonderful. Thank you.
Hi all, I'm 72 years old. I live on a small Atlantic island in my retirement. Mark knopfler gets me through my day, I listen to his music every night. Thankyou Mark for the wonderful music you have created over the years, I will die a happy man.
Hi, 1:32 in the morning somewhere in France, and my insomnia also leads me to Mark Knopfler's videos. What a superb piece, really it is a pure pleasure. I wish you many more happy years listening to Mark Knopfler.
Hey everyone. I'm 57. Born and raised in Southern California riding waves and chasing the sun. I grew up listening to the very BEST music via my parents. Mark Knopfler represents the very best of what I got!
I never realized until very recently how stunningly beautiful Emmy Lou's voice was, and together with Mark's vocals and guitar, sounds like something straight out of heaven, the harmony is perfect. It absolutely captured my heart and soul. Must be the most soulful song I've ever heard.
@@philiplawrence2785 moi aussi , j'ai aussi 71 ans et je les écoute tous les 2 chaque soir avant d'aller au lit . C'est le meilleur anti dépresseur et surtout sans effets nocifs !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The sorrowful look on Mark’s face tears at my heart. To not have discovered my admiration for Mark’s talents until the age of 72 I figure is better late than never.
I know your feelings I am 79 and have only just found his music . He like Eric Clapton are geniuses when they have a guitar in their hands. Shame that I have missed so many years listening to him.
What can I say...THE BEST OF THE BEST BOTH OF THEM..I AM 80 AND STILL LISTEN TO ALL THESE TALENTED PEOPLE .MUSIC HAS NEVER BEEN THE SAME.SINCE..THEIR MUSIC WILL LIVE ON FOREVER.💖🙅🏻💖
I'm 81 and Emily Lou Harris has always been a favorite of mine. Then daughter who was living in UK and my Son said you've got to hear Mark Knopfler and Dire Straits. Mark then moved to US, cleaned up personal life and is one of the best guitarist in the world. No pick, just finger picking.
Wonderfully sad song remember when I heard the twin towers had fallen and seeing the horror unfold tears and more tears and I live in Glasgow Scotland but could feel the emotion of the people in New York. December 2023 still very raw ❤
Lynn I am 86 on Sunday, they call us the living dead, its true we are living on borrowed time, according to any chart, or graft, assembled by man,, but I love every day that im given, the sunrises, an sun sets, have never been any prettier, the flowers can get no sweeter, nor the birds sing no better, as now, Enjoy the moment,,
Lynne (another one 😏) I'm 74 but have said Farewell to far too many friends in the past 3 years, including my partner of 21 yrs, Mike 😢. There's nothing left here for me now.
This album was superb. Such beautiful talent. Emmylou Harris's crystal voice and Mark's husky tones. A match made in heaven. This song was lovely, so heartbreakingly sad. If this is goodbye xxx
Today is my birthday. I'm 84 now. I love Mark Knopfler music/song. This is a beautiful song. Thank you for sharing, ARIGATOU, from Tokyo, Japan. I'm quite healthy and hope quite a far away from when I have to say GOODBYE. I have travelled around the world when I was young and have had a wonderful life. I do wish everyone of you have a wonderful bless from the GOD.
Happy birthday late, it sounds like you’ve had a wonderful life. Many more. You are one of the lucky ones who are intelligent to realize it. Best wishes for many more.
@@carriesee8547 Thank you, Carrie!... I have lived in the outskirts of Tokyo when we had day-and-night air-bombings by B-29 during 1944 through 45. I was 8 and 9 years old at that time. I was also young enough not to be drafted. Yes, I am a lucky survivor.
Hugs from Norway to you! All the best to you, but drop the "God" thing.. That is always been a control mechanism...nothing else.. Forget the god's in the books and concentrate on the real thing. HBD
My God this is beautiful. The way Emmylou hangs on every note in the opening verse, is absolutely haunting. To know now that this was written to capture a phone call on 9/11 from one of the Twin Towers , knowing it was their last words. Close your eyes, and hear every word. It's just breathtakingly beautiful. Two legends... thank you.
I can to this music 24 hours.per day I love the intence soft way of singing he is a genius in music no matter what kind of music. No wonder even.Diana and the.Queen love his music!!!!!
Eyes closed floating on the sound of Knopfler's guitar tears rolling down my face as I listen to the beautiful words coming from their gentle soulful voices. I feel I've just been given a gift .
what a beautiful and haunting song from emmylou and Mark what a great tribute to all those who suffered and those still suffering may your broken heart's be mended 💔❤️🩹🙏✨️
Wie Traurig,wir haben unsere Geliebte Tochter Anja an den Krebs Verloren,ich Weine nicht nur bei Liedern,ich Tuh das immer und Überall,ein Kind verlieren ist das schlimmste im Leben was es gibt.🙏
My fatherinlaw passed away and my wife thought this song should be played on the day of his funeral in church. After that she listened a thousands times to this song, with tears in her eyes. Now my wife passed away recently and at the end of the burialceremony in the church I had arranged to play this song for her! Now I am crying every time when I hear this song! Soooo Good! Soooo Intense! So oo heartfilling! I am greatful to Mark and Emmylou. This song will last forever in my heart!
Just heard Bob Seger passed away yesterday. This song rings true for so many of us. I’m 76 so just three years behind him. Thanks for your music Bob! RIP
Listening to this video every September 11, since 2006, we remember the many lives that were destroyed, damaged and changed forever and, in particular, the folk aboard the Boeing 757-222 (United Airlines Flight 93 ) whose last communications with loved ones inspired the lyrics and composition of this extraordinary and hauntingly beautiful song, and performance.
O wait a minute I see that nearly 33000 Americans died in the same year due to shootings in the USA. I’m sure things will get better, oh wait it’s raised to nearly 49000 ten years later. Gosh I guess there must be another expensive war on the horizon.. those blooming Canadians must have known.
Today is hardly the first time I’ve listened to this beautiful performance. Mark Knopfler’s way of honoring all of the people who died on September 11th, 2001 is unmatched. Heart wrenching, painful yet absolutely gorgeous, focusing on the very best part of humanity. And Emmylou makes perfect even better. Heartfelt thanks to you both.
Mr Knopfler and Miss Emmy Lou,in my opinion are living legends.I grew up listening to both of them and will never stray from this kind of music.Thank God for good clean music like this that can touch our hearts and stir our souls.
You mix Mark Knopfler’s flawless guitar playing and Emmylou Harris’s Beautiful voice and this is the result,, Perfection , hauntingly serene song,, I never get tired of hearing this piece ,,,
@@ginocandia5770 Oh no sir! This is one of the most heartfelt songs I read the subject of this song and that even makes it very hard to not be tearful! For those that do not know Mark wrote the song about the people trapped in the twin towers on the 9/11 attack calling their families! That is truly heart breaking to listen to and actually think about what was going on in that disgraceful cowardly act by terrorist!❤️❤️❤️❤️
This beautiful song with two well matched voices brings tears.Such a plaintive sound, sublimely performed. Love you both, the world has been lucky to hear your music over all these years.🌹❤
My eye's are now full of tears, the absolute love of my life passed away on 20/9/2019 and I now still I miss my wondeful wife more than mere words could possibly describe. I truly wish that I was present at that paricular concert.
I don't know what to say, except magnificent, superb... What a beautiful duo, between a genius guitarist and 2 superb voices. Thanks to the musicians too. And thank you to all of you, who post these very beautiful videos.
Omg. I can’t believe I haven’t heard this song. A mate of mine just sent it to me. Thank you Mark mate. I cried. Especially at the loss of our Queen Elizabeth II. I also lost an uncle in Oz aged 95. It’s 23:15 hrs 16/09/22 Good bye to our Queen. Long live The Queen. She will be remembered always.
We are so blessed to be able to hear these two unbelievably talented performers unite together in some beautiful music, she is still beautiful and so is her voice and Mark is still so skilled on his guitar and his unmistakable voice is so special as the two harmonize perfectly...God bless you both🙏❤️👍
❤I was just finishing my university days in London when Dire Straits with Mark was most listened to. I bought all of Dire Straits albums and still with me. Dire Straits music & songs are unique and will always remain in me. Thanks Dire Straits, thanks Mark. God blessing to you all. 🙏
Possibly the greatest love song ever. The heartbreaking voice of Emmy Lou Harris and the sublime guitar of MK is just wonderful. The backstory makes it even more poignant.
My understanding is that this song is a “conversation “ between someone who is trapped in one of the towers in NYC during 9-11 attacks and his or her loved one.
@@mxaexm I believe the lyrics were written by Emmy Lou Harris as a tribute to all those who died at 9/11, and in particular, to those, in the hi-jacked planes or the towers, who used their mobile phones to call those they loved when it became clear that there was not going to be a happy ending. I am 94 and this still makes me cry every time I hear it.
Another gem by Mark written as only he can do with the deep delicacy and the right respect for the victims and the force of their love.... despite everything. This beautiful duet is very moving and intense. Thanks Mark and Emmylou.
I am kying in this hospital dying, thinking of my beautiful wife and listening to this song and Remeo & Juliet crying like a baby knowing i shall never feel love again.
This woman is so pure of voice, and this guitarist is so beyond words for me, I play guitar largely because of him, and the songs on this album are poetic and beautiful
Een fantastisch duo. Mark Knopfler één van de allerbeste gitaristen ter wereld en Emmylou Harris een icoon op het gebied van Country muziek in Amerika.
i have heard this 120 times, and tears keep coming in my eyes, Everytime this song, these voices, and this music touches me. It is one of the best songs,and for sure the best version.
Unbelievable guitar work at the end of this duet; could not have ended this amazing song any better and anyone who truly appreciates Mark's talent will recognise just how brilliant he finished this song. A master of masters at work!!
Definitely agree, no gimmicks just two superb artistes, on a stage with an excellent band, no silly lighting or pyrotechnics. Perfection can not be bettered, youngsters take note and learn.
Oh wow. Emmylou had and still has the voice of an angel. So much emotion and so much control. Beautiful, just beautiful. Add Mark's guitar and you have perfection
I'm so glad I stumbled on to this. As I expected from these two, there isn't an extra note in the whole piece and there isn't a note missing. I call that perfect.
Beautiful singing and even more beautiful guitar playing. Thank you Mark and Emmylou for this wonderful music, especially at this time when an invisible enemy is keeping so many people at home.
Since his days after leaving Dyer Straits, I have come to really appreciate this man's true appreciation for the guitar. Knopfler's style is truly unique, with his trademark string bending style. Do you even realize you're performing in front of a live audience Knopler? Looks like you're completely lost in your music, totally absorbed, oblivious to anything happening before you. As a guitarist, that's a true pleasure to watch (and listen to!).
I remember playing this song around Christmas when I thought my mom was going to be gone soon. It just seemed like the perfect song and it still makes me happy every time I hear it because it reminds me of her. No one is ever gone as long you keep them in your thoughts. This guy is one of my favorites.
This 'take' could've been the last take of this song and gone right onto the CD. Such an amazing beautiful, sad song performed in outstanding fashion by Mark, Emmylou and their tight backup band. Thank you! Bless all those commenting here and all those in this Covid time.
Well. I make no apologies for this song. It made me cry. I’m in my last decade on this earth and hope that it is how I may be remembered. For the many friends I’ve lost in years gone by.
If I have had a difficult day at work I turn on my music to listen to Mark Knopfler.His music is so beautiful, peaceful relaxing and calming.Some of his music is haunting and sad. His music touches my soul and makes me laugh and cry. Mark, you never cease to amaze me......never stops playing!!!!
Just can't believe how incredible Mark's guitar is. (Note how he daftly piques " i love you" thumbing up the guitar masterly (what a true maestro!). And Emmie sings like a echo.. or shadow.. blending perfectly like a true duet should be.. Just so beautifully flowing into our hearts.. like a true love should.. I love you... ❤🧡
My late husband loved both of these great musicians. He played All the Roadrunning so much. I chose this song for his memorial service. Wonderful. Thank you.
I love how they just come on the stage and perform - no backup singers and dancers - no crazy costumes - no theatrics - pure talent!
Absolutely. When you are that good--- you don't need any tricks or gimmicks at all!
YES!
Happy birthday .. perfect song.

Makes me feel like a kid back in the 60s again
Do you have to be there?
If I were on an island, I would not need the company of a singer who is oblivious to my existence. Not every night, anyway.
No fluff no distractions .... Just beautiful music from two fantastic performers
Mark Knopfler and Emmy Lou.
What a Gorgeous Musical Event.
Timeless.
Hey everyone. I'm 57. Born and raised in Southern California riding waves and chasing the sun. I grew up listening to the very BEST music via my parents. Mark Knopfler represents the very best of what I got!

Wake the fuck up mother fucker! Not just voice.
Emmylou has one of the most recognisable voices in the world, in harmony she cuts through beautifully, always complimenting the other vocalists.
I was thinking exactly same..
Go back and listen to the Records recorded by Gram Parsons and Emmy Lou,they are some of the greatest duets ever sung. The Lady is Pure Class.
This is beyond stunning ❤
Mark Knopfler ..... the REAL deal. Great guitarist. One of the very best.

Yes indeed they have rewritten the belief that contemporary music is only for the young.
I'm 81 and Emily Lou Harris has always been a favorite of mine. Then daughter who was living in UK and my Son said you've got to hear Mark Knopfler and Dire Straits. Mark then moved to US, cleaned up personal life and is one of the best guitarist in the world. No pick, just finger picking.
God these people are the real professionals of the music industry. It doesn't get much better than this.
Yep, think about this as music at my funeral.
Yes Sir
Agree....
Why are you telling God? If he's up there, he already knows.
Wonderfully sad song remember when I heard the twin towers had fallen and seeing the horror unfold tears and more tears and I live in Glasgow Scotland but could feel the emotion of the people in New York. December 2023 still very raw ❤
Famous last words: I am 84 and most big people in my life I’ve said good-bye to.
So, I thank you two for singing the song of my heart.
I whole heatedly agree . The words " our love comes shining red and gold ", always send shivers down my spine .

When Knoffler or Clapton touch a guitar, it becomes an instrument of heaven.
Absolutely agree. Heavenly's sounds.

Guitarists of the past knew how to make u love guitar and want to buy one. Now what? Who? RUclips shredders and harmonics? Wrong turn for guitar.
And Bruce 😊
While I agree 100 percent, I'm as taken by his vocals as his guitar. He lives where he can live and it's perfect.
Her voice is such a perfect match to his guitar. Love them both individually and together they performed with magic!

The twin towers went down 2001 September 11 and building number 7 collapsed in sympathy.

We are so blessed to be able to hear these two unbelievably talented performers unite together in some beautiful music, she is still beautiful and so is her voice and Mark is still so skilled on his guitar and his unmistakable voice is so special as the two harmonize perfectly...God bless you both🙏❤️👍
❤I was just finishing my university days in London when Dire Straits with Mark was most listened to. I bought all of Dire Straits albums and still with me. Dire Straits music & songs are unique and will always remain in me.
Thanks Dire Straits, thanks Mark. God blessing to you all. 🙏
Possibly the greatest love song ever. The heartbreaking voice of Emmy Lou Harris and the sublime guitar of MK is just wonderful. The backstory makes it even more poignant.
what is the back story?
@@bunnybenchaim7027 I'd like to know too
My understanding is that this song is a “conversation “ between someone who is trapped in one of the towers in NYC during 9-11 attacks and his or her loved one.
@@mxaexm I believe the lyrics were written by Emmy Lou Harris as a tribute to all those who died at 9/11, and in particular, to those, in the hi-jacked planes or the towers, who used their mobile phones to call those they loved when it became clear that there was not going to be a happy ending. I am 94 and this still makes me cry every time I hear it.
It's a 911 song. Emmylue didn't knew this at first. When she realised that....then this happend
First time I have heard this it's beautiful. The guitar playing fits Emmylou's voice and the lyrics. Fabulous thanks Mark for posting.
Another gem by Mark written as only he can do with the deep delicacy and the right respect for the victims and the force of their love.... despite everything. This beautiful duet is very moving and intense. Thanks Mark and Emmylou.
Emmy and Mark compliment each other. Just great.
The whole album is really good, I wish they'd do another one!
So respectful
Perfect!Emmy,ou is one of my favorite female voices and he and she together, absolute perfection🎈💜👍🏼
I am kying in this hospital dying, thinking of my beautiful wife and listening to this song and Remeo & Juliet crying like a baby knowing i shall never feel love again.
💔
I'm sorry for the pain your experiencing.
I saw this in DC. One of the best concerts I've ever seen. Knopfler never left the stage in almost 3 hours. Just awesome.
Knopfler goosebumps....... Guitar King forever .
This woman is so pure of voice, and this guitarist is so beyond words for me, I play guitar largely because of him, and the songs on this album are poetic and beautiful
The guitar speeks love beautiful xx
Emmylou Harris...angel voice. Thanks Mark!
❤️
Agree...it's a taste of heaven .

Een fantastisch duo. Mark Knopfler één van de allerbeste gitaristen ter wereld en Emmylou Harris een icoon op het gebied van Country muziek in Amerika.
i have heard this 120 times, and tears keep coming in my eyes, Everytime this song, these voices, and this music touches me. It is one of the best songs,and for sure the best version.
Ad Van Gool You have a excellent taste in real music sir
Time for 121!
me too, don't count anymore the replays, hahaha what a perfect combination, flowless
With you hombre, it was difficult to hit your thumbs up for sure!
Two extraordinary talents, how she still has a voice like that is incredible. Sounds like she did 30 years ago.
Unbelievable guitar work at the end of this duet; could not have ended this amazing song any better and anyone who truly appreciates Mark's talent will recognise just how brilliant he finished this song. A master of masters at work!!
The nocturnal voice of Mark Knopfler gives charm of the duo!! Wonderful, magnificent.......if this is Goodbye.
This is the definition of perfection. When the music and the singing are perfect, you don't need weird gimmicks.
Definitely agree, no gimmicks just two superb artistes, on a stage with an excellent band, no silly lighting or pyrotechnics. Perfection can not be bettered, youngsters take note and learn.
Is it true Mark plays only by ear?
@@lencalneggia8884 he almost certainly can read music very well. But at this level of skill he can almost certainly work anything out by ear
Thanks my info was wrong. I consider myself the best guitar player
Sorry that should be "consider MK" the best guitar player
I love to see these two greats together! This is TRUE PERFECTION, I close my eyes & drift away hearing each note & tone. Thank you Emmy & Mark!
Oh wow. Emmylou had and still has the voice of an angel. So much emotion and so much control. Beautiful, just beautiful. Add Mark's guitar and you have perfection
When I learned that Mark and Emmylou drew inspiration to perform this song together from the events of 911.....I wept uncontollably!
Brilliant Duet by two of the most Genuine Music Genius’s of our generation! 😊
Excellent collaboration. Ms. Harris, you are simply stunning.
Two gods of music coming together for utter perfection
One God and one Goddess 😍
I'm so glad I stumbled on to this. As I expected from these two, there isn't an extra note in the whole piece and there isn't a note missing. I call that perfect.
Lo mejor un clásico me encantan los diré straits
Well put. I totally agree.
Michael Colloton
Couldn't agree more!!!
Yay, Mark and Emmylou! what could be better? Eric and Sheryl doing Wonderful Tonight, maybe?
Beautifully expressed… I cannot think of a lovelier tribute.❤️
Beautiful singing and even more beautiful guitar playing. Thank you Mark and Emmylou for this wonderful music, especially at this time when an invisible enemy is keeping so many people at home.
Ganz großes Kino - just wonderful
The sea is endless as is time... . .
@@herberthoeck3720 👍👍❤️❤️🇨🇭🇨🇭
Ich bin 80 Jahre. Mark Knopfler ist einfach großartig. Danke für die wunderschöne Musik. Ich liebe sie ❤❤❤
Since his days after leaving Dyer Straits, I have come to really appreciate this man's true appreciation for the guitar. Knopfler's style is truly unique, with his trademark string bending style.
Do you even realize you're performing in front of a live audience Knopler? Looks like you're completely lost in your music, totally absorbed, oblivious to anything happening before you. As a guitarist, that's a true pleasure to watch (and listen to!).

DRailroad: thanks for a great comment! Enjoyed reading it quite a bit, especially the last part.
So true x
I loved him in Dire Straights and he has just continued to get greater through the years !

Emmylou has the most wonderful voice for sad songs. She could sing the telephone directory and have us all in tears by 'Aardvark'.
🥰
Stunning, wonderful from a legend, she never fails to deliver her beautiful vocals, always touches the most sensitive souls 💕
Just beautiful, words can’t describe this master peace. Nostalgia of days gone by when music had a meaning of our generation.
I remember playing this song around Christmas when I thought my mom was going to be gone soon. It just seemed like the perfect song and it still makes me happy every time I hear it because it reminds me of her. No one is ever gone as long you keep them in your thoughts. This guy is one of my favorites.
Your memories are always yours , tunes ,words, weather whatever it's all yours , enjoy .
Your guitar sends a shiver up my spine Mark. Absolutely beautiful.
This 'take' could've been the last take of this song and gone right onto the CD. Such an amazing beautiful, sad song performed in outstanding fashion by Mark, Emmylou and their tight backup band. Thank you! Bless all those commenting here and all those in this Covid time.
Bless you richly!
Was für ein wunderschönes gefühlvolles Duett. Danke für die tolle Interpretation.
Well. I make no apologies for this song. It made me cry. I’m in my last decade on this earth and hope that it is how I may be remembered. For the many friends I’ve lost in years gone by.
Heavenly music can only be obtained when you have two geniuses like these coming together making MUSIC !! LOVE YA MARK... LOVE YOU EMMYLOU !!
This song is heartbreaking and beautiful. The outro solo sounds like the guitar is crying for all of those people. Wonderful tribute.
So Beautiful, a wonderful tribute to Chris Kristofferson. RIP Kris, forever free ❤
What a great song...And the outro solo, what a piece of art, just pouring his heart into the crying guitar. Beautiful!
All the Roadrunning, love this album, every track is masterful. Nothing like Emmylou and Mark.
If I have had a difficult day at work I turn on my music to listen to Mark Knopfler.His music is so beautiful, peaceful relaxing and calming.Some of his music is haunting and sad. His music touches my soul and makes me laugh and cry. Mark, you never cease to amaze me......never stops playing!!!!
Such good stuff...and Emmylou Harris singing sweetly it is a gem....
And when I read what this is about it is a prefect music .
Same here. His voice is rich and beautiful, his guitar soulful and lovely. Can't help but be moved.
Absolutely through hard times that guitar and Emmylou takes me to a better place
I hope not
Just can't believe how incredible Mark's guitar is. (Note how he daftly piques " i love you" thumbing up the guitar masterly (what a true maestro!). And Emmie sings like a echo.. or shadow.. blending perfectly like a true duet should be.. Just so beautifully flowing into our hearts.. like a true love should..
I love you... ❤🧡
Straight to my heart, thank you Mark and Emmylou. One of my all time favourite.
Emmylou is as beautiful as she ever was and truly a phenom along with one of the best guitar players in the world~!!!!!
