#MarkKnopfler
Fuoriclasse assoluto. Talento purissimo. Mark è fantastico. Suona la chitarra in modo meraviglioso. Canzoni nostalgiche e leggendarie. Uno dei migliori di sempre. Eccezionale. Coinvolgente.
I feel like we are all friends here listening to our favorite musician. Mark Knopfler, no one else is like him!
Hes the best 🎸
It's because one simply cannot buy cool. Most aren't that open minded "for much".
Nobody my favorite 🤩
@@odettepross2435 I've been his fan since 1985. He is my favourite musician/songwriter,
he is the best it's not even close different league
An incredible and unconventional multi talented artist. Mark Knopfler is not only a legendary and divine guitarist but also a rafined and cultured songwriter and storyteller. A true living legend of the music.
Well said. Agree 100%.
Spitze .
Meu amor 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Well said Right words!

Around 2:30 he takes a bit of time to acknowledge the playing of the other guys on stage, gives a nod and a smile to the violinist who’s face lights up. Mark has done this all through his career, he has always shown appreciation and respect to the people who play alongside him, despite his talent he never made it all about him. A class act and a gent.
Thank you so much for saying that. A gentleman is a greatness that cannot be acquired
And WHAT a talent and longevity
You are born with it .. . .
So true
He’s a very modest and private person with a heart of gold. Never forgot from where he came. Knew him well. A brilliant musician! Cheers
No make up, no snobbish, no flamboyance. Mark just came with his pajamas and shake the world. Absolutely stunning performance!
Blessed! Born to this.♥️🌹🎼🎤
In a league entirely of his own
Blessed! Born to this.♥🌹🎼🎤
the greatest
Stupire con le cose strane è facile. Il difficile è stupire con le cose semplici.
The way he plays..omg, there will never be another like him. I listen and I'm a teenager again. It never gets old.
Memories. I was 22 and in college when the Sultans of swing came out. Imagine, getting him and Elvis Costello in the same year! That was special and still is!!!
James Harris i just turned 22 and am very upset I never saw him live. My favorite musician and it’s not even close.
First mk/ds song I heard was Your Latest Trick, I was 12 years old in 1985?and I never looked back, beautifully technical guitarist whom I owe it to for me picking up a guitar. Also he was born in Glasgow just like me x
Yes ! He is Superb Guitarist ... the Best we know

هذا الرجل مبدع و عبقري ، و موسيقى داير ستريت لن تموت ابدا، انا تجاوزت 60 سنة و لازلت استمتع بهذه الموسيقى الرائعة و الفريدة من نوعها، انها تنبث من اعماق الذين يقدمونها،
السيد مارك و رفاقه قدموا لنا أشياء جميلة جدا و الفرقة تعتبر ايقونية في الموسيقى الروك
انا كذلك أكثر من 30 عام، شرفني ببلدك انا من المغرب
لكي تستمع لي Mark Nophlerمن الضروريات في الحيات ان يكون لك اصدقاء يتمتعون بالدوق الرفيع.
لاني تعرفت على Mark من خلال صديق له دوق رفيع.
انا عمري 30 سنة واول اغنية سمعتها كانت calling elves عندما كنت في 5 من عمري
حينها ادركت انا mark knopfler ايقونة صوتية و موسيقية
This is absolutely beautiful. Ironclad proof that he's one of the greatest musicians in history.
Mark knopfler imo is the most underrated guitarist /songwriter ever. He's written hits for some of the biggest stars and his guitar style has a beautifully emotive and melodic flavour unlike anyone else. After all these years he still often references his homeland in his songs, which adds to his authentic and earthy tone. One of the greatest of all time for sure.
Exact. Sound and lyrics of extreme sensitivity. They make me very emotional.
What let you think that he was/is underrated ?
@@trucbidule3939 A point! MK never had a label spend a million bucks promoting his albums- Mark's choice. He has always been Mark Knopfler, and the One!
@@fredericrike5974 are you sure?
I maybe wrong but Brothers in arm was the first commercial cd.
And that's why Phillips spent lot of money to promote this album.
And as far I remember the two last Dire Straits tour were Big promoting tour.
And during the last MK & Bob Dylan Tour, MK brougth to Dylan 'his' public (At least in France)
I fully agree that MK is greatest ans probable an admirable man.
But he was not underrated ans Dire Strait was Big Music Machine as Pink Floyd for instance.
@@trucbidule3939 All long after Knopfler had proven "doing it his way" would make them money- he didn't work with producers that tried to tell him "what his sound should be". MK has been performing at this level for several decades- he was always fantastic, never formulaic. I don't have a large disagreement with you- but Phillips was never as bad as several of the labels- and MK was established. As the saying goes, don't mess with it, if it aint broke!
Mark is the greatest guitarist all time, much underrated.
A friend of mine teaches guitar. I asked him if he openings in his schedule for me. I want to learn to play like Mark Knopfler. He replied, “WE ALL want to play like Mark!”
hat's a great story :)
Such an unassuming and humble man.. No thrills or spills, no drama or theatrics, just a top class musician and perhaps one of the very best guitar players ever.. Certainly one of very few who we can recognise just by hearing the guitar
❤❤❤
" what it is". The best music your ears and your heart will listen to.❤❤❤
Everyone praises his guitar playing - rightly so - but how many people can write lyrics this good? Edinburgh comes to life.
The garrison sleeps in the citadel
With the ghosts and the ancient stones
High up on the parapet
A Scottish piper stands alone
And high on the wind
The highland drums begin to roll
And something from the past just comes
And stares into my soul
Yeah, I lived in Edinburgh for a year as a student and the lyrics to this song just evoke a tapestry of very vivid sights of the city, particularly on a cold, foggy winter's night. He's captured the atmosphere so well.
@@sugoruyo Walking across the Meadows to lectures, in a blizzard! That was me, 1992-1996...
Yes indeed,an absolute poet,as well as a brilliant musician,cheers..!
Over the years (since Sultans of Swing, in 1978), Mark's Guitar has been keeping the same unique sound. Even my son, 12 years old, recognise it and yells: Dad, it's Mark Knopfler! What an amazing musician, what a heavenly guitar! One of the greatest musicians of all times still alive. An honour for us to be contemporary with this man, who must be named Sir Mark Knopfler while is still on Earth!
The man is a total LEGEND, he does't need to try, it just oozes naturally from him, LOVE YOU❤
So thankful that I grew up listening to the right music.
Oh my god.
The best guitar player forever
Just the VERY best! My inspiration - all these years, we've grown old together. Never stop you're just too good.
My cell phone ringtone. I love this song, i love you forever.💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋
Mark Knopfler, en si mismo, es una oda a la música. Sin extravagancias, con una calidad y profesionalismo fuera de lo común. Un estilo único e irrepetible. Gracias desde Medellín (Colombia).
Mark Knopfler ist ein Mann voller Empathie, und Herzenswärme .Seine Musik 🎶 🎸 so großartig.
Danke Mark Knopfler 🙏🌹💕
Da zeigen'se mal wieder was Rock ist, verdammt aber!🐗👍
One of the Best guitar player EVER! Maybe the BEST! His sound come from Heaven! Mark Knopfler.
I'm in a small village in India.
Only radio waves reaches me to the mesmerizing music of Mark Knopfler. It's more than 30 years now, I first listened to his music. Wanna express my Love, my Best Wishes to him.
Thank You Mark, Thank You!
Where in India are you?
Espero que sigas escuchando en tu pueblo de la india. Yo lo escucho casi en el fin del mundo. Compartimos los mismo gustos musicales a pesar que seamos de distintas culturas. Abrazo dónde estés 🖐️😊
Than you may have t o gave a big supply. Of batteries
One of the nicest and most gifted musicians on the planet
Thank you Mark. I've loved you and your music for the past 35 years. Now my grandson is learning guitar watching you. Love and blessings always.
Like me in my young days go on boy,
God has given this man a great talent........I know his music lives in many lives ..............the words and music will carry into the next generation because it’s just too good to fade away!
His live performances are way way better than recordings which means he is a masterpiece of God
We are blessed with the talent and creativity of people like Mark Knopfler...enjoy it anytime you want..
By far, the best guitarist on an electric period! Brilliant artist.
Mark has a way of making everyone play to their highest level. They have smiles and grins because they know they played spectacularly! He glances at the players to show approval. Just a great sound no lights or fireworks for him ,he don’t need them.His music will last forever.
Tal vez Mark Knopler, sabe que el mundo en el que estamos es un universo simulado, y si parece que él lo sabe que todo es un juego y hay que saber jugar el juego de la vida. Músico genial sin lugar a dudas
Who is this? This is KING OF THE WORLD! 👍👍👍 Mark - We Love You so much! ❤️❤️❤️🤛
Yes we do
And who doesn't ?!!
Maro _111 World treasure for sure!
Yes you are right..he is king..
Yes I agree with you....
Mark is King
Yeeeeesssss
The violin guy looks so happy playing with Mark😂 But i understand him,who doesn't want to play with Mark the guitarking! Love this song!! Beautiful 🙌 Greetings from Sweden 🇸🇪
"Something from the past comes and stares into my soul" WOW! That lyric/line jumped up and bit me, right in my ass... wow...
There will never be another like this man. He is incredible. He always. Acknowledge his band members as if they are the ones that make him
successful.
As a teenager, I watched these Parkinson clips on repeat for the whole Australian summer of 2006, just wishing for a red Strat for Christmas! Lovely to see them in better quality.
Saw Mark inn a live concert in Toronto too many years ago. ( then I moved to Baltimore!) but have never stopped listening to him.
The Christies Auction a year or two ago was mind blowing - it raised 8 million $$ or more - all donated to help schools to provide music lessons for children who would never have had that opportunity otherwise.
Love him💙
Mark knofler is truly a legend, he is simple and humble, his style is completely different to others, he adds a lot of melody to his solo which makes him different from all.
In an interview some 38 or so years ago Joe Walsh said" Don't be in such a hurry..... no-one makes it overnight, and God help you if you do, because you go down just as quick." Mr Knopfler is the embodiment of this. One of the few reasons to be proud to be British.
Mark Knopfler - Für mich der beste Gitarist aller Zeiten !!!!!
❤
Amazing, and Mark's complicity with that violinist, beautiful
You are a great artist and always will be great
I loved all your songs since my childhood. I am 49 years old now and you still delight us with your wonderful sweet songs
Greetings to you and my warm greetings to you and I wish you a long and happy life
With you, a lover from the Kingdom of Morocco.
…great…great music, great musician and great human being…Thanks….❤
Love this guy. Perfection in a artist. What he done in his life is incredible.
This absolut perfection. Doesnt matter if it is different from album or any other version, he played it with his heart, and with what he was feeling at the time. There is no mistake when doing it with love and life
I love this! Mark’s guitar and voice, and what a band
I've listen to a lot of guitarists there are a ton out there,but the only one that has make me cry like a baby is Knopfler his touch is just out of this world
He makes me cry...for better or worse
But always for good ❤️
I remember i was a child of the year of 8. My dad was driving and i heard this song for the first time playing on the radio. I instantly felt in love with this song
I don’t think, Mark Knopfler has ever played a bad song
Me either. Not able to describe how untouchably happy and never lonely when he plays. Dancing alone happy.
Eu quero outras música dá banda
No truer statement ever spoke.
I understand the truth when I listen to Mark Knopfler.
Never gets old (visually or musically)
marks music is a perfect blend of rock,blues,folk and a beautiful unique soul.i guess thats why no one can play exactly like him.i believe that is a lesson for everyone to remain true to their own likings and soul.
I cried listening... Royal Albert Hall... 2019....
He is coolest ever...
me too
I am listening to Mark since the 1977 until and he's the best player ever,,,,,
The Legendary guitarist 🎸🎸🎸 Greetings from Papua New Guinea 🇵🇬🇵🇬🇵🇬🇵🇬

Lyrics, choice of back up and the phenomenal playing of Mark.♥️ Tomorrow is your Birthday but today mine everytime I hear you .🌹🌹🌹
Nice words Valerie, Mark turned 13 the day I was born.. He and Chet Atkins were the best of Friends, both my heros, Guitar legends
Each time a video of him pops out in my feed I cant help but watch it. He is truly the best.
Wonderful song, great artist, thank you for this kind of music.
What a outstanding guitarplayer/songwriter.
Thanks for all your beautifull songs.
Mark is a hero to me .
Me too ❤❤❤❤
I love this song! It conjures a soul-stirring time & place with its atmosphere.
Chapeau!
20 years ago? No. Couldna be. I was just sitting in the car hearing this for the first time a couple, three years ago. Right? 20? What the hell?
The same and the unchanged our life stories teller, Mark Knopfler..💟.
I saw Mark Knopfler in concert ....Florida .....1980...Fabulous show!
I remember watching this at the time, I was 23. Can't believe it's 20 years ago!
Mark is a gift to the world.
Amo... amo e amo Mark para sempre. Estes solos de sua guitarra estão salvos em meu coração e em minhas lembranças dos meus queridos anos oitenta, minha juventude. 😍😍😍😍😍😍
Hola Angel de que parte de Brasil eres ??? Olá Angel, de que parte do Brasil você é ??? A mesma coisa acontece comigo, essa música me leva de volta aos anos 80, hoje tenho 50 anos, adoro o Dire Strait e o Mark Knopfler ............ a música dos anos 80 é incomparável
respect from libya 🇱🇾👍.
mark knopflir 🎸💪✊.
Nobody knows how to get such a wonderful sound on guitar as MK😘❤
You are the greatest Mark. Thank you. Love everything you do !!
Just what I needed on an Alabama Saturday Night. So entertaining! Tell your stories in song, Mark. They hit the mark!
hello dear Mark
you're probably not the one getting these messages, but still. I'm from Portugal, I'm 45 years old and I grew up listening to Dire Straits and your solo albums.
I just want to tell you that you are one of the few people that I consider great in music and that I would like to meet you in person. I know it's "almost" impossible, and I say "almost" because anything is possible as long as we want, but given the current situation, I believe I think I'll never meet you in person. I'm also a musician, I play guitar, piano and drums. I have a great RESPECT and Admiration for you. May you live many long years composing great music. It fills my heart. Believe me!!!
Hug from Jorge Santos.
No make- up needed, no fancy clothes MARK JUST CAME OUT IN HIS PJ'S THAT SHOULD SHOCK THE CROWD! WHO CARES HE'S JUST SO CLASSY. IT'S HIS SINGING THAT COUNTS " THAT'S SO COOL" AWESOME DUE!
The very best live version of this song! Thanks Mark
MARK KNOPFLER ...WHAT A GUITAR MAN ! WHAT A MUSICIAN ! ONE OF MY MOST FAVOURITES.... I HOPE HE WILL STILL MAKING MUSIC.....HE LOOKS GOOD ON HIS AGE ....
I’ve been a massive fan ever since my mate played me the first Dire Straits album in ‘78. Saw them in ‘79 in the Birmingham Odeon and have all of their albums and most of Mark’s solo work. A superb performance here from a great artist with a unique and unmistakable sound.
How dare some people dislike such a performance!
Wow. As we age most singers voice fades with use,not Mark. His voice just gets fine tuned with many depths in tone. Thanks Matk I enjoy many hours of entertainment listening to you.
Grazie mille tvb ❤️ buona Vita 💪💯un bacio grande da Napoli Italia 💋
Mark Knopfler has completely mastered that instrument !
Absolutely one of the very best. Thank you Mark for all the wonderful music.
One of the worlds best guitarists ❤
No one of the best, but the best
Happy memories of two great Mark Knopfler gigs at Manchester Arena. Obviously I love his Dire Straits music, Brothers in Arms is as perfect an album as can be. But I also love how he gas embraced more folk and roots music in his solo career. And his duets with James Taylor are pure magic.
Mark Knopfler, il est absolument génial, on peut l'écouter en boucle sa jamais se lasser !! c'est de l'orfèvrerie musicale...merci
I’m so proud to come from Mark’s neck of the woods. Smile every day going over the Tyne.
Mark knopfler is a legend. Love from Pakistan ❤
Accomplished diverse repertoires in typical Knopfler style and panache. Best thing of all is how humble this man is. He is musician that loves music and not the pizzaz that usually is associated with it. Truly inspiring to Me. Thank you Mark Knopfler. A role model.
This song is so beautiful, it makes me cry!!!
This song uplifts me everytime i hear it, beautiful. Wow, not seen this version before.Thanks to whoever uploaded it.
Excellent story teller! Paints with his lyrical brush and dips his guitar in blissful colors to display what he's thinking.Great artist!
I not live in a small island like Zalucine, but in France, and me too, i have no chance to hear M.Knopfler, my favorite musician and singer. Up internet !
icedbass
Huh? Last year he played in Bordeaux, Toulouse, Lyon, Strasbourg, Paris, and Nimes. He tours all over Europe, and I can guarantee he plays within 2 hours of your home. What do you mean ‘no chance’ because you live in France?
@@rickroll9086 Hi Rick Roll ! it's not because i live in France, it's because i work 6/7 days by week at the same hours of his concert and i can't take 1 day of free time suddently if i can't prevent my boss1 year before: ( :(
icedbass
Sounds like you need a different job! Isn’t there a 35 hour work week...and who works 7 days a week? Anyway, good luck and you should try and see him soon; he’s 71, and time plays no favours.
@@rickroll9086 thank for yor answer, and it's true, if i could change my job, i'll do . i work 6 days on week, not 7 but it's hard anyways. Yes, he's old now, and if i can't see him soon, never i couldn't :(
@@icedbass Unfortunately he retired one year ago.....
Am from Fiji. So hapi to be able to see him.before only song ..now we can see him.
Just love him music and his playing.
God bless
Невероятно.... Как в одном человеке мог поместится целый мир... У меня каждое утро начинается с этой песни)))
Un genio, Mark es sin duda excepcional. Nadie como el, a pesar de los años conserva esa riqueza técnica y habilidad para darle a la guitarra. Pará mí que lo sigo por muchos años, es sino el mejor, uno de los mejores guitarristas del mundo....
one of the guitar greats, such an original style and take on electric guitar
Sensacional ! Mark você é simplesmente o melhor guitarrista de todos os tempos!
Sen duvidas !!!! 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸👍👍🇵🇹
Verdade Fátima!
Super et merci 🗼🎵🎶🎼💚💛💚💗🧡💜💙
Never get tired of your music and your magic. God bless you, Mark Knopfler!
