Lyrics:
You walk out on the high wire
You’re a dancer on thin ice
You pay no heed to the danger
And less to advice
Your footsteps are forbidden
But with knowledge of your sin
You throw your love to all the strangers
And caution to the wind
And you go dancing through doorways
Just to see what you will find
Leaving nothing to interfere
With the crazy balance of your mind
And when you finally reappear
At the place where you came in
You’ve thrown your love to all the strangers
And caution to the wind
It takes love over gold
And mind over matter
To do what you do that you must
When the things that you hold
Can fall and be shattered
Or run through your fingers like dust

It’s 2024 and I am, still! 🏴
Me too!
The whole album is absolute magic and way ahead of it's time. He never played like this again.
Yes, I think he zenithed on Love Over Gold in a rock-band sense.
🌹
apparently this was such a painstaking album... that they stressed over it...think he was quoted he never wanted to work this hard on an album again...saw this tour in 83...magical.. dire straits at their best...
I think he still plays great.
Still plays great…yes, but this era was MK at his absolute best. Made it look so effortless. I’d go and see him in a heartbeat tomorrow, but he played all the songs so much better then than now. That’s not a criticism. That’s just life, and how things are when you get older.
2024, 32 years old and still here ❤️🇫🇷
Me too^^
me too^^ br
One of the best songs of dire straits!
But the most undervalued.
@@amantesdelosanimales1508 I personally don't thing so. I thin people like Dire straits because the songs are Milestones or Landmarks for them. Love over Gold is so beautiful. When someone ask me, what are your favourite Dire straits songs? I thin I have 2 options. I say hmm.. Love over gold or once up on a time in the west or I say: Really? All songs are good.
I agree. But the difficulty is that they have so many best songs.. 😄
Particularly this live version 💖
⚜ My all time favorite is
BROTHERS IN ARMS ⚜🕊
music to soothe the soul and to make one feel glad to be alive, Mark Knopfler is a genius
So true
Love you always POLA
It's actually a very dark, angry song
2:53 that solo must be one of the most enchanting ever played on a Spanish guitar by Knopfler.
My papa would play this on our DVD before... Time flies... I miss him so much, been 5 years since he died but glad that I could listen to his favourites and feel like he's still around 💖
I‘m sorry for your loss.
beautiful way to pay tribute to your papa 💚
Mark's songs, like this one, have got no age. They are humanly universal and completely timeless❣️✍️🎸
I listen to this every morning on my way to office. Relaxes me
That classical guitar does it for me!
Yeah You walk out on the high wire
You're a dancer on ice
pay no heed to the danger
And less to advice
And your footsteps are forbidden
But with the knowledge of your sin
You throw your love to all the strangers
And the caution to the wind
Yeah you go dancing through doorways
Just to see what are you gonna find
Leaving nothing to interfere
With the crazy balance of your mind
when you finally reappear
At the place where you came in
You've thrown your love to all the strangers
And the caution to the wind
It takes love over the gold
You got the mind over matter
When you do what you do that you must
When the things that you hold
Well they can fall and be shattered
They can run through your fingers like dust
Niall McEntee wrong lyrics
👍💓
Escuchar a Mark tocar la guitarra clásica es una de las cosas lindas que tiene esta vida
Dire-Strait are definitly the best....
Beautiful , this album really gets right into the soul
The very first Dire Straits track I heard that made me aware and become a fan of the band.
From then on it was magic to enclose myself in the room where the stereo was, crank it and play Love Over Gold. Captivating Mark, cheers to you and the band.
This song is absolutly perfect...one of my favoirite from MK...lyrics and music are miracles...😍
But I always wondered why in the "Alchemy" version this Diamond has not been played fully with this fabulous guitar solo till the end...on stage it should have been AWSOME..
This song is magic and it will remain for ever 🎼🎵🎶🎸⬅️➡️
alchemy concert was his best ever
Ive always loved this song and this live version. Theater in yiur ears.
Put your headset on full volume and turn uo bass.
"pay no heed to the danger, and less to advice , and your footsteps are forbidden, but with a knowledge of your sin" My favorite line
happy birthday to the best musician i've ever heard
This song makes me cryin' it's really that...nothing's more precious than Love...more over gold and diamonds...MK is so delicate...sweet...The final nylon strings guitar of this Masterpiece ln the studio record is one of the most fantastic guitar part from Mark...Amazing...💝💝💝
Underrated gem that I just started to appreciate
listened to my very first dire straits in 1983 LP thanks to my sister.
this music always comes back to my mind...
Mark Knopfler is the best guitarist to me
how good is the '' knopf '' wow
Why do folks who is here in 2024,people with taste will always be here, long after Taylor swift and those schmucks will be long gone ❤
Hammersmith Odeon in London, 1983, the live album recording''Alchemy'' was released in 1984
Underrated album😍
Incredible, atmospheric and haunting. Some of the sections .29 to .34, 2.23 to 3.23 are totally mesmerising.
2024!!!
You walk out on the high wire
You're a dancer on thin ice
You pay no heed to the danger
And less to advice
Your footsteps are forbidden
But with a knowledge of your sin
You throw your love to all the strangers
And caution to the wind
And you go dancing through doorways
Just to see what you will find
Leaving nothing to interfere
With the crazy balance of your mind
And when you finally reappear
At the place where you came in
You've thrown your love to all the strangers
And caution to the wind
It takes love over gold
And mind over matter
To do what you do that you must
When the things that you hold
Can fall and be shattered
Or run through your fingers like dust
your lyrics are incorrect pal.. not hatin, just letting you know.. eg. im pretty sure its "crazy realms of your mind" and its "a dancer on a hill" not "thin ice" i dont KNOW, but thats what i hear when i listen :)
@@johnchristianstiff308 nope, you are wrong
They are both actually wrong. Listen to the song properly
@@niallmcentee9400 actually those are the real lyrics from the song, the video uses the alchemy live version so it has slightly different lyrics from the studio version
Lol
Guitar genius!
Amazing..i prefer this solo live to the one recorded in the album..in particular the part from 3:07 to 3:15 is spectacular
Sublime!
I lost my dad this year and it was really hard for me and my family to get over it and mark was one of his favourite music artists of all time and we grew up listening to these songs.. still gives me goosebumps and chills when i listen to dire straits🤍✨
Força pra vc Rishi.
SO GREAT
I heard this for the first time this morning and in 2:54 I began to think It reminds me the "Private Dancer" verse of Tina Turner. I Googled about It and found out that "Private Dancer" was composed by Mark Knopfler for the "Love Over Gold" álbum, but was ceded to Tina Turner as Mark realised that a female voice would suit better on It... How curious.
Exactly
Terry Williams did support Tina Turner during the 80's - another link
Just stunning
I don't usually rank live performances over studio, but a faster pace takes this song to a higher level.
Como eu amo Dire Straits 😍❤🇧🇷
most of you if not All of you have just discovered Dire Straits in the last 10 to 20yrs while i was in the front row of All his concerts(best part of working in security:))
Máximo de sonoridade musical
OMG this is like my favorite song off all time :D :*
What a great song! Thanks Dire Straits!
sublime Mark, incantevole musica
Hola.. Siempre fue música adelantada a su época, algo más mas música pero que incluso en el 2016 es continua siendo algo fuera de época sitio y lejos para entender pero claro si esta nos embellece oír estos sonidos Alomejor dentro de algunos años comprendamos dedonge provienen estos sonidos tan especiales.
Dire straits
probably my fav DS tune...
Probably my favorite live album
Super botty on that acrobat girl! Getting back to Dire Straits, this is their best song, and I love the Chet Atkins solid body nylon guitar sound. If I had a time machine I would go back to this concert every night for a month, even though Knopfler's jacket is quite funny!
While I agree with the sentiment, very much, I must say that the logistics of that would be problematic. You would either need 30 or so tickets to this performance, which would get expensive, or you would need to find hiding places inside the venue for 30 of you. ...Hmmm. There may be a nice little SF story in that, actually...
It's probably best that I DON'T have a time machine. If I were to meet either Mark Knopfler or Hal Lindes when they were close to my age, I may not be able to resist the temptation to, um, be a stereotypical groupie... And that would be a mortifying experience in the very likely event that I fail, and very difficult to explain to my husband in the very unlikely event that I succeed.
Hardly likely to have a giant lardass really is she if you think about it?
also thinking about it a time machine could only produce 29 other selves on the last ticket to this concert from one to two to three selves ect up to 30 on the last visit back, it wouldn't produce 30 KRAZEEIZATION
's to require 30 tickets as the concert runs in normal time so it would be the same ticket purchased in a repeat loop 30 times, assuming the ticket sales office sold one ticket once to one person they wouldn't notice the repetition as long as the time machine controls could cope without having to queue behind yourself to buy the same ticket 30 times.
The problem really would be the repetition itself, seeing as there would be no additional input from seeing the performance a second time because the second time would still be the first time ad infinitum unless your memory held the previous visits which is doubtful. The atmosphere of once is the only time you'd be aware of so the theory is not backed up by practice beyond deja vu x30 in one performance.
The Camera really is the closest to a time machine there is, recording time is possible and it can then run back, repeating time itself would be as self defeating as would a large butt on a Trapeze be, or similar at least.
Iam still watching it in 2024 ❤
[Verse 1]
You walk out on the high wire
You're a dancer on thin ice
You pay no heed to the danger
And less to advice
Your footsteps are forbidden
But with knowledge of your sin
You throw your love to all the strangers
And caution to the wind
[Verse 2]
And you go dancing through doorways
Just to see what you will find
Leaving nothing to interfere
With the crazy balance of your mind
And when you finally reappear
At the place where you came in
You've thrown your love to all the strangers
And caution to the wind
[Verse 3]
It takes love over gold and mind over matter
To do what you do that you must
When the things that you hold can fall and be shattered
Or run through your fingers like dust
I Love this band
Adoro esta banda sinceramente, y yo que se que tendrá
Calidad!
It was many, many years before I realized what this song was about. :)
mark is unique!!!!!!!
Epic.You touch my heart in a very special way!
Épico
this is epic!!!!
Last of the greats.
MARAVILHOSO ❤
Dire straits are a class act 100 percent
I've got the Alchemy DVD and the vynil but this song isn't included. I don't know why. It's a masterpiece
I've got all too. And I have Love over gold on it. This song is a Milestone
Love Over Gold was only included on the Compact Disc release
It was on Dire Straits - The Videos 1992 Laserdisc/VHS release but not on original 'Alchemy Live' video.
Playing this on repeat as I am going through the same thing he did with his first wife right now. Betrayal. Mark and I have birthdays this month too.
Unusual but so close to my heart.
Not too many love-songs in history of popmusic are just mere descriptions of a woman’s strength, instead of admiration of some sort - apart from Billy Joel’s. And Knopfler is in his diction not even sugarcoating it up but just ‘informs’. When it comes to musical texture and complexity of form, this hidden gem in his oeuvre wins from any other love-song, even his own.
It's got elements of "Private Dancer" in it.
Yeah Mark recorded Private Dancer for the album but thought it needed a female vocal . And the rest is history
La mejor de las bandas en mi gusto muy personal.
Adel Houdrouge. THANKS MK Love this song since the 80, s
Muito bom! Época boa que dava gosto de ouvir Rock .
Браво...
Fantástico
💥 ABSOLUTELY 💥
In my opinion it's the best Dire Straits song but it's very very underrated song :(
absolutely classic ！
Всем привет вырос на этих песнях, и до сих пор когда еду на машине далеко ставлю..... И дороги становятся лучше!!!!!
Done some hard roads to this band ...
Mark knopfler ❤
Gosto de praticamente todas do Dire Straits mais essa é meu xodo
Che bravi i dire straits.. MAMMA MIA brividi
Why is Mark Knopfler so fucking good ?
Show de bola
I guess we'll never find it,man.Dire Straits forever!
Some of the phrases here are just the unique sound of 1982-83.
Ese solo de Mark es AMOR puro
Who is watching this video in 2025?❤
I will be!
So will I if I'm still here.
Brividi
Best song a musician ever wrotten
Anos se passam... muito bom!
i still don't understand why this song is so underrated?
Amazing song = )
Queria conhecer uma mulher que goste de dire straits e que goste dessa música , n deve ser tão difícil assim né? Kkkk
Did you know private dancer was wrote by Sir mark and gave it to Tina Turner 😄.
Mark is a religion
Totally agree 👍 👏.
Who is watching this video in 2019 ?
Fredtouch me
Ilya Tutarov 😆😉
good music has no year assigned
Yessssssss😎☮️
Me 🙂
the best DS song, if you ask me
Why this song was not included in the bluray release I still don't understand. What a shame.
Le Maître !!!!
Mark really was a handsome chap. Looks like a friend of mine who left us.
Mark or MARLOW?
Have you face off Eric r DUNN
The fact that part of the chorus sounds similar to Tina Turner's hit Private Dancer makes me wonder which came first, this song, or the original demo of Private Dancer. (if there was a demo by Dire Straits)
Im guessing Private Dancer would have came first, even though this is the title track of the album.
gracias!!!
es la crema de la nata
buena music de dire straits
Yes
