Back in 1988 My daughter was burned in a house fire. She was flown to Shriners hospital in Boston for treatment. While driving to the Hospital, I played this song over and over again while fighting back tears. To this day I can't listen to this song without tearing up. My daughter now has a Doctorate in Physical therapy and just received her Masters in Hospital Management !
That is very true Emmanuel,my wife has just left me am listening to this song and men it's really comforting ☺️ guess am just going through walk of life only that am alone.
My Dad's favourite song. Even when dementia had taken everything else from him this song could still get him out of his chair Dad dancing. RIP Dad. Love you always.
I lost my brother when he was 29 and I was 17. This was his favorite song. I am now 49 and it feels like time travel every time I hear it. God I miss him.
What can i say . A time less tune ! We played this at our late father's funeral in January 2016 he loved Dire Straits with absolute passion. Whenever i hear it on the radio i always think of Dad and he is talking too me . Love and miss you so much Dad xxx
Mark Knoffler was the walking, living breathing, epitome of what music is like, if only it were a human being, living, breathing, walking, singing, playing guitar, singing.
This was my grandfathers favourite song I often heard him listening to this every time I came home due to him and my nan living with us and I remember the atmosphere he created around this song, even when he became terminally ill he still listened and loved his music, it will be a month in 2 days I have only just had the courage to listen to this song, I love you Grandad and thank you for all the memories you gave us and keep doing the walk of life,1954-2023
I'm so sorry for your loss. My world fell apart when I lost my grandad. I held his hand 3 days and nights as he slipped away. We' kept him in the house he built when he immigrated to the US. I grew up there. I've never returned since the day he died. I don't know if I ever could just drive past it. That house is him. He poured so much off himself into it, it's not the same w/out him.
I was a teenager when I brought home a Dire Straits cd. When I was playing this song, my dad told me to turn up the volume. Ever since, this was one of my dads favorite songs that came from my music collection instead of the other way around. My dad passed in 2015, when I miss him this is a song I play and thank him for the times we shared. He was definitely the one person I am happy to say we shared the walk of life together ❤
I'm envious. Both my parents were monsters. I thank God every day that I was able to get away from them. That's one reason I like this song so much. It picks me up!
I can relate... I learned it from my dad. For me to have loved music the way I do today was because of such sound from back then. I was so young I could not yet understand English and these taught me about 60% of the English I know.
I’m 15 years old. My life isn’t all too special. I’ve had my ups and downs. This song never fails to brighten my mood. It’s definitely my favorite song ever.
Dad used to tell me stories of how this was his best friends song before he passed. Now both of them have passed. Do the walk of life both of you. Miss you everyday
I used to listen and sang Dire Straits with my elders brothers when I was a child. Now after a big fight for the inheritance of my dad and many humiliations from them, I didn’t had anymore contact with them for the last 10 years. This is the truly walk of life but we must keep smiling and working hard to have something to smile for. I love that song, its part of my life.
This is going to be my father's exit song at his funeral, currently listening to it repeatedly to try numb myself to it but of course, there's 0 chance this is going to work! I'm only 25 he was my world, 55 is also way too young to leave this earth. On the other hand, he definitely did the song justice and did a huge walk of life with great taste in music like this band. RIP Dad
I am so very sorry. I was 21 and my dad was only 52 awaiting a heart transplant 33 years ago. Not a day has gone by that I don't think of him. I miss him today, as I did 33 years ago. Hugs my friend.
I’ve been watching the Big Bang theory since I was a baby I started watch young Sheldon when it realesed my mom and dad were both so happy when this song started playing in the pilot
One of the happiest songs from my childhood - no matter what kind of mood you're in when you start listening to it, you can't help but end with a smile on your face!
I lost my father 4 years ago (and today would have been his 73th birthday), and when I was a kid, we used to listen to this song repeatedly in the car driving to school, at home... pretty much, everywhere. I stiil miss him to this day, and every time I want to remember the good times we had together, I come here and listen to this piece of art. Thanks for everything you've done for me father. I'll make you very proud. I promise.
Your father must have been a cool man if he liked this song. We will always connect with people through our interactions with people. And we still do. Never ends. Remember the love and good times. Apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Be a cool kid like your father.
I am 64 and still listening to this song, in 2021. This was one of my favorites, during my youthful days. It is still on my mind even at this age. Absolutely marvelous!
This was my dads favourite song. I sat by his bedside in hospital last week and played it to him. I started crying and halfway through he took his last breathe 😢
Very few songs are timeless. This is one of them. Never 😮ever get tired of hearing it. I’m now 83 years old and music as good as this becomes more precious every day. Thank the gods for Mark Knopfler.
jimin.serendipity this was my dads favorite song of all time and I have so many memories of this song being played when I was a kid. This was the number one song we had at his funeral.
They made one of the coolest songs ever- sultans of swing. They made one of the saddest songs ever- brothers in arms and they made one of the most uplifting songs ever- this one
When my Dad collapsed and died at my mum's burial and this music was played in one of our radio stations that same evening I found comfort in it,,I cant hold my tears whenever I hear this. music
True. I listen to this endless times, when I feel down. You simply dont get music like it these days. And this song came on 3 years before I was born. Not many people in my age appreciate the oldies goldies..
My dad's favourite song💜 I lost my dad 6 years ago when I was 20 and had just had my daughter, she was 11 weeks old. His first grandchild. We lost him out the blue to a heart attack and this was his favourite song. Currently playing this song and his now 6 yo granddaughter, 3 yo and 1 yo grandsons are dancing along xxx
same. my dad just got to see my firstborn before he died. he was in agony back then n my daughter giggling at the dog was the only thing that could put a smile on his face. she cant even remember him now
Me, lol Oh the rock of the combo string/drama years. Dire Straights sure promoted the hell out of Ovation Guitars didn't they? Not bad for Bruce Spring in his step either, coming from background singer chorus behind Roy Orberson. The promotion of MTV into the Sat Night Live. I still get a kick listening to this day.
Meu pai amava essa música, amava Dire Straits e sempre que ouço, me lembro dele. Ele partiu faz 2 meses dessa vida, mas se ele estiver em algum lugar, certeza que ele estaria ouvindo essa música! Te amo Pai🖤
Not many songs legit puts an emotional mark on me. But this one sure does. My dad loved this song he sadly passed away in August of last year only 11 days after my mum. He sure did the walk of life now its my turn to venture out there. I will stumble and fall but I will get up again. I will keep strong and be the best man I can be as I hope to unite with my dearest that is in Ukraine
I grew up with this song in my household. My parents played it as often as I can remember we ever had a good time. Despite hardships and trials, we all made it through fairly well I'd say. This song and all the distant memories have and will always stick with me. Can't believe I had forgotten about this song until I stumbled upon it again yesterday. Damn, this is a true masterpiece and so much more this song. Do the walk of life.
0:00 "You lost" "No. I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be" Hearing this made me so sad as this show made up the cliff end of last year and most of this year. Love you Sheldon never change man❤ Edit: today I finished the big bang theory. I saw a few episodes when I was four and I still remember watching penny and lenerd saying their vows from all those years ago. I'm starting young Sheldon now with the big bang theory in mind to see how Sheldon's life was before Pasadena.
A great song that reminds all of us of our fathers - my dad LOVED the video because of the sports fails and the old people dancing. Ah the memories of growing up in the 80's. Miss you dad.
@@gheerock4077 ...or, if you love rock 'n' roll, you can listen to it all! I like this one too... :-) ruclips.net/video/7qO2eEScFYU/видео.html&ab_channel=ABBA-Topic
I lost my son a few months ago only 28, but this is how he would want it to be! I forgot about this song, it just come up, fits perfectly! Do the walk of life and keep their legacy moving on!!!!
A mi hijo le encantaba mucho esta canción cuando estaba dentro del vientre de la mamá, lo sé porque cada vez que la ponía curiosamente se ponía muy inquieto a moverse cada vez que la ponía. A los 3 días de nacido falleció por negligencia del hospital y una mala práctica… Cada vez que oigo esta canción me llena de nostalgia y tristeza de aquellos días que mi bebé la bailaba feliz dentro de panza. Es una canción icónica y favorita
Daniel Holt : Indeed. I am listening to it at this very moment. Brought a smile to my face. Precious little to smile about at the moment so please everyone play it to cheer yourselves up.
Rest In Peace Jack Sonni (the other guitarist). You helped shape my rock music experience here on earth. You’ll always be remembered as one of the finest musicians of our generation.
Lol that's exactly what brought me back to this great song. The 80's was such a great time to be a child. Born in 78' I was a child in the 80's, and a teenager in the 90s.
Everytime we went on vacation, my dad played played Dire Straits music in the car. I was quite young back then, but all these years later I still remember it when I hear it. And to be honest, I cried the first time I heard Brothers in arms again after all those years…
AH YES BROTHERS IN ARMS IS JUST A CLASSIC TUNE, I'VE BEEN A GOOD DIRESTRAIGHTS FAN 4EVER I USED TO ALWAYS LISTEN TO IT AND MY BROTHERS A BIG FAN TOO, DIRESTRAITS some great tunes 👌 👍
sempre, graças a Deus meu pai tem bom gosto pra musica e por causa dele ouvir musica super alta todo domingo, passei a gostar de musicas da epoca dele como essa

My 70th birthday is coming up in a few weeks. I'll be listening and dancing to this epic song. Just like Sheldon said, "I'll be exactly where I'm supposed to be." Taking more steps in "The Walk of Life."
When I was a little girl my dad used to play this song for me on his guitar. When my dad died we played this song on his funeral Today it’s been 13 years since my dad died. Listening to this song (and other DS tracks) gives me the feeling dad is beside me. Thanks for the memories!
@@Buddhamama-on_tour_2022 i never understood funerals, people wear black, make a speech. id wear colourful clothes and poor my favourite whiskey on the grave, ur saying goodbye, everyone eventually passes
My dad would play this many times when I was a kid. I’m 27 now and this song always gives me nostalgia! I can’t wait til I have my future kids and show them this song
Don't worry old-timers... Thanks for loving this song... I'm 27 and I will carry on dancing from where you left and play it for the coming generations, my kids included.
This was my sister's favorite song. We would dance and act so goofy when this song played. Great memories. Cancer took her from me but I'll have the memories.
Dire Straits - Walk Of Life Lyrics Here comes Johnny singing oldies, goldies Be-Bop-A-Lula, Baby What I Say Here comes Johnny singing I Gotta Woman Down in the tunnels trying to make it pay He got the action, he got the motion Yeah the boy can play Dedication devotion Turning all the night time into the day He do the song about the sweet loving woman He do the song about the knife He do the walk, he do the walk of life Here comes Johnny and he'll tell you the story Hand me down my walking shoes Here comes Johnny with the power and glory Backbeat the talkin' blues He got the action, he got the motion Yeah the boy can play Dedication devotion Turning all the night time into the day He do the song about the sweet loving woman He do the song about the knife He do the walk, he do the walk of life Here comes Johnny singing oldies, goldies Be-Bop-A-Lula Baby What I Say Here comes Johnny singing I Gotta Woman Down in the tunnels, trying to make it pay He got the action, he got the motion Yeah the boy can play Dedication devotion Turning the night time into day And after all the violence and double talk There's just a song in all the trouble and the strife You do the walk, you do the walk of life

This song reminds me of my father, he had the best musical tastes. He passed away 4 years ago but still lives on in his favorite music, kisses to heaven.❤
I’m 70years old now, I used to play Dire Straits and especially this song when my children were young. They still love this group to this day. Brings back many happy memories.
This song was played at my dads funeral two weeks ago,it was played at my mum n dads wedding too,he played this song at least once a day he absouletly loved it,hes probarly still singing the now,ive started playing at least once a day ,cause it always remmbers me of my father,god bless his him ,he was a great man n i miss him millions.xxx
This song holds a lot of special meaning and memories to me in my heart. When me and my sisters were younger, my Dad would play a lot of music on his stereo in our living room. Sometimes we would be in our room doing something else and my Dad would start blasting this song out there, and as soon as the first note played we were out in the living room, full-stop. We used to call this the "Carousel Song", because it sounds so much like a song you'd hear on a merrry-go-round. Being from Jersey, we would go down to Seaside Heights as a family and we'd ride the carousel as soon as we got there. Anyway, me and my sisters would grab random accessories like hats or sunglasses and run to the living room, put them on, and start forming a circle as if we were on a carousel. When the song started really hitting the rock-and-roll, we'd just totally let loose and pretend we were rockstars dancing and playing some air guitar. My Dad was also a really good voice impressionist, and he'd sing along with this song in his best Mark Knopfler voice. We had such fun times like that growing up. I'm 32 now, and this has still been as relevant to me as it has since the day I first heard it. Last year, we included this song in a birthday picture montage video we created for my Dad's 61st birthday. When we watched it together, my Dad's smile instantly lit up the room and fun memories came rushing back in all our minds as we smiled right along with him. This past July, my Dad sadly passed away at 62, from a bravely hard-fought battle with kidney failure. He passed away eight years and a day after my Mom passed away from pancreatic cancer. It's been a really difficult year for me and my family, but my Dad always told me he'd want me and my sisters to keep going no matter what, and that if anything were to happen to him, to "know I'm out there looking for your Mom," since he dearly missed her these past eight years as much as we did. Listening to this gem among other awesome songs my Dad loved that we grew up on has helped me to get through the past few months, and I have no doubt they'll continue to in the years ahead. Just had an air guitar jam session by myself blasting this in my earbuds, and I smiled and sang all the way through. My Dad showed me what doing the walk of life is all about, and as I continue on my own journey, I'll never stop to think about my Dad's own walk of life that got me where and who made me who I am today. Dad, this one's for you! ❤🎸🎶
@@glorioskiola Very sorry for your loss. It's amazing how music can bring people together in even the saddest times in our lives, and lift our spirits up when it matters most.
35 years old and still.play this regularly,reminds me of my father that sadly past away when I was 15...he used to play this all the time...it doesn't bring sadness,it brings happiness love 💔 ❤
38 and this was my dad’s favourite song too… always played it when we went anywhere together… lost him when I was 13! Always make me so happy and sad when I listen to it ❤️

Still does

Such a happier and simpler time. The 1980's and 1990's my youth and young adulthood. Back when the world just seemed a little more joyful.
the most American song written by one of the most British bands, love it
In all my years I never knew they were from the UK. Thanks for letting us know.
One of much more Amercans who're created by these Britains.
One sentence from Balkan man;)

Very few songs are timeless. This is one of them. Never 😮ever get tired of hearing it. I’m now 83 years old and music as good as this becomes more precious every day. Thank the gods for Mark Knopfler.
I am 68 , but the oldtime was a normal, boys, girls. ( dogs , cats ) And these music can be show to the idiots the normal years .

Dire Straits Walk of Life is one of the classiest songs back in days. I play it every morning before I go to work

jimin.serendipity this was my dads favorite song of all time and I have so many memories of this song being played when I was a kid. This was the number one song we had at his funeral.
Good old times cant be forgotten and cant be replaced. Gotta hold on to it.
this song also reminds me of my funny uncle 😀
I hear this song at Raley's and bee bop through the aisles.
The 1980s were one of the best times to be a human on planet Earth.
Right now 2!!!!

100%. It's pretty cool right now. America is back and so is the mean Orange Man. UltraMAGA 🇺🇲 🇺🇲 🇺🇲
The only thing good now is we can enjoy the 80s legacy easily.
They made one of the coolest songs ever- sultans of swing. They made one of the saddest songs ever- brothers in arms and they made one of the most uplifting songs ever- this one
And don't forget one of the best love stories/love songs ever - Romeo & Juliet. All the best my friend! Do the walk of life (:

I recommend this song for the people who fight depression and anxiety. We deserve to be loved and to be happy.
Yep, from England
Like 2 weeks a go I feel so depressed thinking bad things a bout my life,but I'm here surviving
Yep, and it sucks 🤗🇦🇺
True. I listen to this endless times, when I feel down. You simply dont get music like it these days. And this song came on 3 years before I was born. Not many people in my age appreciate the oldies goldies..
Followed by Any Major Dude… 🎶💜
Mark and the band look like they're having a lot of fun doing this set.
The keyboards, the damn keyboards is what makes this song a masterpiece. Simply sublime. Wish I could have seen them live😢
I saw them live in Southern California; I remember this song specifically.
This is probably a DX7.. Yamaha.. Awesome to this era.. 80's😮❤❤❤

We lost him out the blue to a heart attack and this was his favourite song. Currently playing this song and his now 6 yo granddaughter, 3 yo and 1 yo grandsons are dancing along xxx
:) nice thought tho your children dancing to his fav song:)
same. my dad just got to see my firstborn before he died. he was in agony back then n my daughter giggling at the dog was the only thing that could put a smile on his face. she cant even remember him now
GOD bless your dad & your children I enjoy listening to older music Rush Limbaugh just went to heaven to be with your dad Rachel 🇺🇸🐱
Just came ro show my 8 year old my dads favorite song. He died when I was 20. 1 year before any of my kids
Great history
Who is listening this year 2024
Eu ❤
Always. Been a classic in Australia for years 🍻
Me, lol Oh the rock of the combo string/drama years.
Dire Straights sure promoted the hell out of Ovation Guitars didn't they?
Not bad for Bruce Spring in his step either, coming from background singer chorus behind Roy Orberson.
The promotion of MTV into the Sat Night Live.
I still get a kick listening to this day.
Not only listening but want to dress like Mark Knopfler!!

Not many songs legit puts an emotional mark on me. But this one sure does. My dad loved this song he sadly passed away in August of last year only 11 days after my mum.

Thank you Martin for such a beautiful lasting memory of Tigger 😢 my little 'sweet pea' ❤❤
I grew up with this song in my household. My parents played it as often as I can remember we ever had a good time.
Despite hardships and trials, we all made it through fairly well I'd say.
This song and all the distant memories have and will always stick with me.
Can't believe I had forgotten about this song until I stumbled upon it again yesterday. Damn, this is a true masterpiece and so much more this song.
Do the walk of life.
Excellent lyrics. Can never forget when the album was released early 80s I think when I was studying in the UK

Hearing this made me so sad as this show made up the cliff end of last year and most of this year. Love you Sheldon never change man❤
Edit: today I finished the big bang theory. I saw a few episodes when I was four and I still remember watching penny and lenerd saying their vows from all those years ago. I'm starting young Sheldon now with the big bang theory in mind to see how Sheldon's life was before Pasadena.
Dude they should make a show about Sheldon’s experience at Caltech
Oh, my beloved 80s. Remembering today March 2024!

A mi hijo le encantaba mucho esta canción cuando estaba dentro del vientre de la mamá, lo sé porque cada vez que la ponía curiosamente se ponía muy inquieto a moverse cada vez que la ponía. A los 3 días de nacido falleció por negligencia del hospital y una mala práctica… Cada vez que oigo esta canción me llena de nostalgia y tristeza de aquellos días que mi bebé la bailaba feliz dentro de panza. Es una canción icónica y favorita

Just saw it now. I can't stop crying.
Lol that's exactly what brought me back to this great song. The 80's was such a great time to be a child. Born in 78' I was a child in the 80's, and a teenager in the 90s.
If you go back to the 1st ever episode of Young Sheldon, this was also played in the train toy scene.
That's precisely what brought me here.
362 million others think this song is great, just like me .
Everytime we went on vacation, my dad played played Dire Straits music in the car. I was quite young back then, but all these years later I still remember it when I hear it. And to be honest, I cried the first time I heard Brothers in arms again after all those years…

Dire Straits - Walk Of Life Lyrics
Here comes Johnny singing oldies, goldies
Be-Bop-A-Lula, Baby What I Say
Here comes Johnny singing I Gotta Woman
Down in the tunnels trying to make it pay
He got the action, he got the motion
Yeah the boy can play
Dedication devotion
Turning all the night time into the day
He do the song about the sweet loving woman
He do the song about the knife
He do the walk, he do the walk of life
Here comes Johnny and he'll tell you the story
Hand me down my walking shoes
Here comes Johnny with the power and glory
Backbeat the talkin' blues
He got the action, he got the motion
Yeah the boy can play
Dedication devotion
Turning all the night time into the day
He do the song about the sweet loving woman
He do the song about the knife
He do the walk, he do the walk of life
Here comes Johnny singing oldies, goldies
Be-Bop-A-Lula Baby What I Say
Here comes Johnny singing I Gotta Woman
Down in the tunnels, trying to make it pay
He got the action, he got the motion
Yeah the boy can play
Dedication devotion
Turning the night time into day
And after all the violence and double talk
There's just a song in all the trouble and the strife
You do the walk, you do the walk of life

Same bro. My dad has this on stereo full sound on!
This song holds a lot of special meaning and memories to me in my heart. When me and my sisters were younger, my Dad would play a lot of music on his stereo in our living room. Sometimes we would be in our room doing something else and my Dad would start blasting this song out there, and as soon as the first note played we were out in the living room, full-stop. We used to call this the "Carousel Song", because it sounds so much like a song you'd hear on a merrry-go-round. Being from Jersey, we would go down to Seaside Heights as a family and we'd ride the carousel as soon as we got there. Anyway, me and my sisters would grab random accessories like hats or sunglasses and run to the living room, put them on, and start forming a circle as if we were on a carousel. When the song started really hitting the rock-and-roll, we'd just totally let loose and pretend we were rockstars dancing and playing some air guitar. My Dad was also a really good voice impressionist, and he'd sing along with this song in his best Mark Knopfler voice. We had such fun times like that growing up.
I'm 32 now, and this has still been as relevant to me as it has since the day I first heard it. Last year, we included this song in a birthday picture montage video we created for my Dad's 61st birthday. When we watched it together, my Dad's smile instantly lit up the room and fun memories came rushing back in all our minds as we smiled right along with him.
This past July, my Dad sadly passed away at 62, from a bravely hard-fought battle with kidney failure. He passed away eight years and a day after my Mom passed away from pancreatic cancer. It's been a really difficult year for me and my family, but my Dad always told me he'd want me and my sisters to keep going no matter what, and that if anything were to happen to him, to "know I'm out there looking for your Mom," since he dearly missed her these past eight years as much as we did.
Listening to this gem among other awesome songs my Dad loved that we grew up on has helped me to get through the past few months, and I have no doubt they'll continue to in the years ahead. Just had an air guitar jam session by myself blasting this in my earbuds, and I smiled and sang all the way through. My Dad showed me what doing the walk of life is all about, and as I continue on my own journey, I'll never stop to think about my Dad's own walk of life that got me where and who made me who I am today. Dad, this one's for you! ❤🎸🎶
An old friend introduced me to Dire Straits. He loved this song. Sadly, he passed from cancer last year. RIP dear Rob; you did the walk of life.
@@glorioskiola Very sorry for your loss. It's amazing how music can bring people together in even the saddest times in our lives, and lift our spirits up when it matters most.
