The song my father let me see on you Tube a few years ago when i was very Depressed and hè said these words to me, now iam out of it and iam happier than i was before after 6 yaers 🙏🏼 i must cry when i hear this song.....my father passed away 6 march 2024 ✨️💖and i miss him so much😢....he was my my rock!
Your father chose wisely. For the moment and for musical excellence. I'm playing his work for my young kids as well and they like it. A wonderful way to remember your dad.
My heart split in two when I heard Chet Atkins died. Part of me was just destroyed. I called my brother (also fingerstyle picker) and tried to not cry. I’ll always miss him.
My first celebrity crushes were Don and Phil back in the late 50’s. To me they will always be the fresh faced young men who charmed me with All I Have To Do Is Dream. Rest In Peace.
Mark Knopfler looks at Chet Atkins like a kid would look at Santa. The admiration and appreciation is obvious. Even though Knopfler has carved out his own niche in the music world, it's still humbling and nice to see such respect for one of his icons and guitar heroes. A beautiful song made even more so by the vocal brilliance of the Everly brothers, Mark wrote it but the EBs took it a level higher.
Chet Atkins, the maestro, Mark who wrote this beautiful song and plays beautifully with Chet, and the most wonderful duo ever, the Everly Brothers. I shall always remember this.
Chet Atkins would have turned 100 years today 20 June 2024. Salute you sir, what a true legend. I am 60 years old and enjoy listening from down south in Africa. One word of advise, be grateful if you are happy within you skin. Discovered him way too late in my life.
Mark has zero ego. You would never guess he wrote this masterpiece and his original version is over 8 minutes long. He just enjoys the company of fellow musicians and appreciates each one's talent: you can see it in his face. The Everly Brothers influenced his own music and he and Chet were close friends. Wonderful video.
We don't have to oversell Knopfler. He is a fabulous artist and does subordinate his play in service to the song, but he is a human being, just like the rest of us. Also, you need to have some ego to be healthy; you just want balance. From what I see, he has a love of music that has no bounds and has dedicated his life to it. He is amazing to watch as he practices his craft and reveals it to an audience...
Great version of this song by the brothers, you can see how much it means to Knopfler playing this song with them. They will be sadly missed by everybody. This song really suits their vocals.
I have listened to the Everly Bros.for years and this song by Mark Knopfler is such a great tribute to them. God rest their harmonious souls and also Chet Atkins "The Country Gentleman"
@@Kerpieanne I have the greatest respect for Chet, and maybe Mark Knopfler too, but Don and Phil will pull just about anything together. Long as they're not hitting each other with guitars.
Chet the master, Mark the next generation. What a wonderful collaboration! Add the Everly voices and Michael McDonald keyboard...Nirvana. Saw this live and had on VHS. So excited to find on u-tube to enjoy again. So much talent and a beautiful song!
Chet, Mark, Phil & Don. I'm speechless, it's only a gigantic Wow!! You might even think that this ballad was written especially for the Everly Brothers. It's wonderful to see the complicity of these four together. Sad too to realize that there is only one left among us. Thanks for this magic moment gentlemen.
Oh My God. I have never heard this song. I am crying, overwhelmed by the beauty of the song and by some of the greatest musicians doing what they are supposed to do, overwhelm us.
The finesse of Chet Atkins playing , Mark perfect accompaniment, McDonald sweet piano and the Everly Brothers harmony vocals , all very humble pure enjoyment that’s what You call Greatness✨💫🌟✌🏻
Just watch Chet's face, if the number one Certified Guitar Player was happy, it was all going just as it should, and it's for sure that everyone on stage for that session won themselves a place in musical history over and above their previous triumphs.
My dad loved this show and would watch it repeatedly on videotape. He said the same thing about Chet's face more than thirty years ago. He said you could see the pride in Chet's face as they were playing this song.
Wow, this is such a beautiful song, sung by two of the most beautiful voices. I watch this when I am worried and stressed and it helps me relax. Thank you Don and Phil. You left us with some beautiful music.
Biggest gems in the music industry..brightest stars of several generations, coming together to perform this masterpiece..how lucky are we to watch and listen..moments like these are once in a lifetime, it is that good...it is that good!
True to say Mark is a genius so unassuming and sweet, the three other men are so sadly missed I listen to this song with these treasures every week or so my most favourite song and this is the best I have ever heard. Miss you guys no one can beat you - the saddest thing in life is us having to leave, so very sad.
Perfect harmony.... Today the heavens welcomed another angel and the Everly Brothers are together again.... Rest in Paradise!! Your music will live forever in our hearts and memories.....
I have just seen the most natural harmony ever 2 brothers singing and playing even after everything 1 of them went thru alcoholism drug addiction he was still very good they r legendary musicians no doubt about that .and as for the song if u don't get the message I it u ain't human..God bless them beautifull song
I saw the Everly Brothers back in the 60's here in Johannesburg. What a show, what talent, most of all, what harmonies. One of the best shows I have witnessed.
I can't count how many times I meant to UP Arrow a video and accidentally hit the DOWN because my fat phone slipped from my hand in the process. And you can't fix it!
I'm in awe of these guys, I'm 77 and loved all kinds of music, rock, blues, country etc. but this stuff is special in its own way and I'll listen to it and enjoy it to my last days on earth.
Maravillosa canción interpretada por muchos de los grandes. Dan ganas de llorar viendo la complicidad que tienen entre ellos y como disfruta su creador Mark Knopfler 🥹🥹
In 1958 when the Everly's released All I Have to do is Dream, I thought it was one of the most beautiful songs I'd ever heard••••• and I was only 10 years old. I didn't even know what you called it then but I somehow recognized at the age of 10-- as a non-musician-- that their voices melded together like no others. I can't believe at the time of this recording that you're listening to, that those two Brothers still had the ability to harmonize in such a beautiful weaving together of their voices. They still had it! Despite all the years of discord between the two of them. As an old man of 75, it almost seems like they are a Channel for Beauty coming from somewhere on high.
The Brothers were at loggerheads with each other but kept it professional at performances. Mark and Chet gave each other a knowing look. The magic was working. Don and Phil turned to each other, and in that look said, "I love you brother". Mark and Chet, in that moment smiled at each other knowingly, for a moment, the rift was gone. Pure alchemy, pure gold.
Ahhhhhh it definitely is a masterpiece, no doubt. But it does get better, of course there is the greatest, Stairway, but go listen to Ten Years Gone, or listen to the greatest female voice ever, Judith Durham. Now that I've taken the Micky, in all honesty, to say it doesn't get better, or to use the term greatest is pure bullshit, music isn't a competition, it isn't a ranking, it's very personal and subjective. Let's leave it at the opening, this is a masterpiece.
WOW OH WOW 😓 October 27th 2024 I'm 60 year's old and am familiar with Mr.Chet Atkins Mr.Mark Knopfler and the ever famous Everly Brothers 🎶🎶🎸🎸 never ever did I know such a tremendous connection glad I was searching RUclips thank you tissues please 😓😓🎶🎶🎸🎸💙💙🫂🫂💙💙💎💎💎 Ohio here
Loads of talent in this clip. So multigenerational but a great song is a great song, sung by the masters of harmony the Everlys. Their talent as well as Chets is sorely missed. RIP
I have listened to this so many times. Love every wonderful moment. How about Mark Knopfler smiling? Those people in the audience were treated to such a great performance by some epic musicians.
Knopfler actually wrote the song with the brothers in mind. The original version is on Dire Straits' Brothers in Arms album. Mark and Chet were great friends and collaborated on a bunch of projects. This one was definitely special.
This could have been written for the Everly Brothers - their harmonies take a beautiful song to new heights. I love to watch the interactions. These are musicians enjoying being together and doing what they do best.
That's what makes the everly brothers the most beautiful harmonic duo to ever grace this planet. I'm glad they're both back together as the everly brother while they rest for eternity
@@heatherkelly2580 No. It was written for the Dire Straits album Brothers In Arms. Mark had The Everly Brothers in mind when he wrote it but it wasn't written for them. If you want a song that *was* written for them, try, On The Wings Of A Nightingale, written by Paul McCartney.
@@CB-xr1eg Not surprising to hear it was written with them in mind. In addition to McCartney, I should think many musicians have been influenced by the Everly Brothers over the years. Simon and Garfunkel were at one time called 'Tom and Jerry' and based their harmonies on trying to sound like them. They went on to create their own distinctive sound, but the Everly-inspired harmonies were always there.
The Everly Brothers make me feel as if every song was really written just for them to sing... everything they do turns to beauty. I knew as soon as I saw who was performing this it would be sublime...
Everly Brothers and Dire Straits are a formidable classic combination of voise and guitar. Lightning Express by Everly Bros made me cry as a young boy and still brings tears even today since my mother passed on. Words hit a raw nerve inside that’s never healed
what great,beautiful singing, musical back up. This is the kind of music that is inspiring.Wow,fun, pleasurable sounds.I love this presentation ! Great artists,performers, good stuff.To me Chet Atkins is the greatest guitar player of all time!!
Excellent. What a fantastic performance. I was very impressed by your performance. Everly Brothers harmony voice is beau-ty. I`m happy to share this video. Bless you. From Japan.
Thinking of this performance as the news of Don's death comes out. Legend upon legend on this stage. Such a beautiful song performed by arguably the best duo in rock history (apologies to Simon & Garfunkel, but even they might agree). RIP, Don. :)
Everly Brothers, Phil& Don with Chit Atkins "gone but never, ever gonna be forgoten". Thanks to Mark for his beautiful compositon of " Why Worry" and played with the three (U.S) Music Influencers in the world of Rock 'n Roll and what goes with it. R.I.P. in rock'n roll heaven Chit, Phil&Don
Immer wieder eines meiner Lieblingslieder mit den Everly brothers. Bin immer wieder hingerissen von diesem Lied. Danke fürs teilen. So eine große Freude
A lot of talent on that stage. Can you imagine singing as well as the Everly Brothers sing and being backed up by those two guitarists. What a beautiful rendition of a great song. Could listen forever.
I am so grateful that I have lived in a time of such great music but so sad that so many of these great musicians are already gone. Thank goodness for video so their talent can be enjoyed by future generations.
Mark isn't an interloper on this song because he actually wrote the song. The original version is on the 1985 Brothers in Arms album by Dire Straits and runs for eight and a half minutes. Knopfler gladly let them record it because they influenced his own music.
The song my father let me see on you Tube a few years ago when i was very Depressed and hè said these words to me, now iam out of it and iam happier than i was before after 6 yaers 🙏🏼 i must cry when i hear this song.....my father passed away 6 march 2024 ✨️💖and i miss him so much😢....he was my my rock!
There will be laughter after pain. What a lovely message to you ftom your dad. Believe him!
Thank you for sharing.
Your father chose wisely. For the moment and for musical excellence. I'm playing his work for my young kids as well and they like it. A wonderful way to remember your dad.
Rest in Peace, your daddy.
He will always be with you. Forever
enough to make an old man cry, the world s lost some great great people ,
You're not wrong, old man.
Oh God the Everly brothers, Mark Knopfler and Chet what a combination. Thanks to RUclips!!!! Tears in my eyes
And Michael McDonald of the Doobie Brothers playing keyboard.
It's hard to believe only Mark is left! RIP Don, Phil, and Chet. Your music is timeless!!
My heart split in two when I heard Chet Atkins died. Part of me was just destroyed. I called my brother (also fingerstyle picker) and tried to not cry. I’ll always miss him.
My first celebrity crushes were Don and Phil back in the late 50’s. To me they will always be the fresh faced young men who charmed me with All I Have To Do Is Dream. Rest In Peace.
We still have the music, that never died 👍🏻💞♥️🎶
@@paulaisomura4894 You can prettymuch, include everyone, of a certain age, in that tribute.
Michael McDonald (the keyboardist) is still alive. I miss Don and Phil every day.
Doesn't it give you a tingle listening to this wonderful music?
Mark Knopfler looks at Chet Atkins like a kid would look at Santa. The admiration and appreciation is obvious. Even though Knopfler has carved out his own niche in the music world, it's still humbling and nice to see such respect for one of his icons and guitar heroes. A beautiful song made even more so by the vocal brilliance of the Everly brothers, Mark wrote it but the EBs took it a level higher.
Wonderful tribute..well said, Michael!
Great words Michael.
A pair of the best guitar players in the world and a pair of the best singers in the world. Amazing.
Totally agree, The Everly Bros are World class.
I always watch how they look at each other, and suddenly realized they're singing these songs to each other...and I well up all over again...@@joe9042
They will live in our Hearts forever❤
Edward. Yeah, it's too bad there is absolutely No talent on that stage! LOL
4 legends. God bless them all 😢
Chet Atkins, the maestro, Mark who wrote this beautiful song and plays beautifully with Chet, and the most wonderful duo ever, the Everly Brothers. I shall always remember this.
Chet Atkins would have turned 100 years today 20 June 2024. Salute you sir, what a true legend. I am 60 years old and enjoy listening from down south in Africa. One word of advise, be grateful if you are happy within you skin. Discovered him way too late in my life.
Listening from Norway. I also discovered Chet Adkins recently even if his name was familiar to me. I'm 50.
What a beautiful song, performed by four great artists. The world is all the power for the ones who have passed. May they rest in peace.
Well said Martin.
What a rare video. 4 giants together. Amazing song by Knofler and amazing performance. Long live Mark! RIP the rest.
Thanks. Beautiful lyrics and singing brilliant song by Mark Knoffler. Excellent
Two of the best guitarists in the world with the Everly Brothers and an amazing backing band. One for the history books!
Elke keer weer kippenvel. Het origineel draai ik nog het liefst
Oh who is going to replace or replicate these genius’s of music and song
Mark has zero ego. You would never guess he wrote this masterpiece and his original version is over 8 minutes long. He just enjoys the company of fellow musicians and appreciates each one's talent: you can see it in his face. The Everly Brothers influenced his own music and he and Chet were close friends.

He is amazing to watch as he practices his craft and reveals it to an audience...
Well, he has plenty of ego. Plenty. But: his respect for Chet blows it all away, appropriately so.
4 virtuosos - priceless!
I love to see him watching these masters perform his song. He's looking at them like a little kid, though he's the genius behind it. So wonderful.
@@vickilawshe4650 well said!
Great version of this song by the brothers, you can see how much it means to Knopfler playing this song with them. They will be sadly missed by everybody. This song really suits their vocals.
Best.version.ever.some
Talent.there.god.bless.u
All❤❤❤❤
Listening to them brings me to tears; now they are both gone. This was wonderful....with Chet and Mark....and even Michael Mc Donald on keyboard.
One of my favorite songs! Thank you Mark, Chet, Don and Phil for this masterpiece! 💖 🎸
R.I.P Don. What beautiful magic you created for us with Phil. Sublime experience to see Chet Atkins and Mark Knopfler with the Everleys !!!
I have listened to the Everly Bros.for years and this song by Mark Knopfler is such a great tribute to them. God rest their harmonious souls and also Chet Atkins "The Country Gentleman"
I fell in love with the Everly Brothers music in the late 1950s. Still love them.
I literally wore out the Everly Brothers 45s, over and over, night after night. There's no harmony like theirs.
Yes, l grew up trying to sing like them
You have excellent taste in music. No one sings and harmonizes like Don and Phil.
How many legends can you put on a stage together. I'm blown away by this!
Doesn't always work, but it did here.
@@stewartfenton7660 Spot on Stewart.
@@Kerpieanne I have the greatest respect for Chet, and maybe Mark Knopfler too, but Don and Phil will pull just about anything together. Long as they're not hitting each other with guitars.
@stewartfenton7660 Like Duelling Banjos you mean?
Think of the people on the stage for We Are The World.
One of the sweetest moments in music I have or will likely ever see...Phewww! Powerful...!
INDEED!!
Perfection
When they start to sing the goosebumps appear. INCREDIBLE!! ❤
Chet the master, Mark the next generation. What a wonderful collaboration! Add the Everly voices and Michael McDonald keyboard...Nirvana. Saw this live and had on VHS. So excited to find on u-tube to enjoy again. So much talent and a beautiful song!
You saw this on life, when was it, please? Mark was young then... and cute somehow...
Beautiful song!
@@jfhbfthb5737 When I was young...and cute somehow!
So very cute!
FIRST TIME SEEING THIS. EVERLY BROTHERS SANG THIS SONG AT ITS FINEST. CHET& MARK SMILING. THIS IS BEAUTY IN ITS TRUEST FORM!
Chet, Mark, Phil & Don. I'm speechless, it's only a gigantic Wow!! You might even think that this ballad was written especially for the Everly Brothers. It's wonderful to see the complicity of these four together. Sad too to realize that there is only one left among us. Thanks for this magic moment gentlemen.
Recorded 5/15/87: Chet Atkins, Mark Knopfler, The Everly Brothers & Michael McDonald. BEAUTIFUL! LOVE Mark’s smile! ♥️🙌🏼
Lights up his whole lovely face! What a guy!
@@jenduk1 yes, indeed! 😊
Oh My God. I have never heard this song. I am crying, overwhelmed by the beauty of the song and by some of the greatest musicians doing what they are supposed to do, overwhelm us.
I love the way their bodies and voices are in perfect harmony 😍. No one comes close to harmonising like The Everly Brothers!
The finesse of Chet Atkins playing , Mark perfect accompaniment, McDonald sweet piano and the Everly Brothers harmony vocals , all very humble pure enjoyment that’s what You call Greatness✨💫🌟✌🏻

Brilliant! Their music will be loved forever!
I love mark's voice and his performance of this song is fantastic. But I gotta say the everleys lifted it above and beyond.
Wow this song has Marks presence all over it. wonderful performance!
Just watch Chet's face, if the number one Certified Guitar Player was happy, it was all going just as it should, and it's for sure that everyone on stage for that session won themselves a place in musical history over and above their previous triumphs.

Can't get over how beautiful this song is.
Hi Anne💐💐
Was für ein tolles Lied, Musik und Gesang, WUNDERSCHÖN! 👍👍👍👍👍
It is like a beautiful lullaby. A stunning combination of talent in perfect harmony with each other. I sometimes play it half a dozen times in a row!
Me too. But more like two dozen.
Makes my heart flutter with emotion ❤️💔
We have a great taste in music ,musicians ,composers and singers
Best rendition of this song I've ever heard, but then again look at all the talent on stage.
Just stumbled across this, and my mind is blown. What an incredible collaboration ❤

Who could ever downvote this amazing song and lineup?
Only a true loser would, this is a pure masterclass:-) Screw the haters.
Just your low life trolls. Their specialty is hate
I can't count how many times I meant to UP Arrow a video and accidentally hit the DOWN because my fat phone slipped from my hand in the process. And you can't fix it!
Nothing beat the music of those time.i still have and play my records and sing along. So many beautiful song.
This is amazing. Such a talented bunch of musicians, and the best harmonies ever
Best memories, wonderful music,still brings a tear,thank you.
Rest in peace, Don Everly. Thanks for the music and sweet harmony!

Mark and Chet, in that moment smiled at each other knowingly, for a moment, the rift was gone. Pure alchemy, pure gold.
As they reformed in 1984 and this was recorded in 1987 I think the loggerheads was long over
You need to see why Don ans Phil we fighting.
The Devil himself was their manager and he stole everything they had.
There voices together next to godliness,they have be singing this somewhere , surely I believe this to be true. ❤❤❤❤
Just in case people haven't realized it yet, THIS is what musical perfection sounds like. It honestly just does NOT get better.
Oh we realised alright ❤ I listen to this over and over again. 😊
Wonderful Song 🎼🌹🌹🌹🎸🎸
Exactly: just perfection in all!

Hi Carole 👋
I had no idea these 4 amazing artists had performed this together.
I knew Knopfler and Atkins collaborated a lot.
Michael McDonald on the keyboards
Absolutely , some of the best musicians to play and listen to .
Knopfler actually wrote the song with the brothers in mind. The original version is on Dire Straits' Brothers in Arms album. Mark and Chet were great friends and collaborated on a bunch of projects. This one was definitely special.
This is MT first time hearing this fabulous song....fabulous, talented artists here ❤
This reminds me of my father. He's passed now but he was a beautiful person who appreciated beautiful art.
This must be one of my favourite Ev's tracks - helped by the superb composition by Mark Knopfler
This could have been written for the Everly Brothers - their harmonies take a beautiful song to new heights. I love to watch the interactions. These are musicians enjoying being together and doing what they do best.
I THOUGHT IT WAS WRITTEN FOR THEM
That's what makes the everly brothers the most beautiful harmonic duo to ever grace this planet. I'm glad they're both back together as the everly brother while they rest for eternity

Kan er naar blijven luisteren.
Everly Brothers and Dire Straits are a formidable classic combination of voise and guitar.

Beautiful song and well done to everyone 👏, *** western Australia 🇦🇺 ❤

Beautiful song, bring back beautiful memories. Anita Jackson, SA
It should have been released on the single. It would have topped the charts.
what great,beautiful singing, musical back up. This is the kind of music that is inspiring.Wow,fun, pleasurable sounds.I love this presentation ! Great artists,performers, good stuff.To me Chet Atkins is the greatest guitar player of all time!!

I think they would be smart enough to agree.

So beautiful. What makes this song great, everything!
Imagine hearing Chet Adkins ( my musician father’s favorite) and Mark Knopler (my favorite) together 😢Wish Dad were still here to listen
I've watched this on and off for years and tonight I've just spotted Michael Mcdonald on the keyboard!
Absoluter Rhythmus in Musik und Übereinstimmung der beiden wundervollen Sänger
Beautiful my big bro luv this. ♥️ still listening to it brother gone now was played at his funeral 😢 💔
Hi Elizabeth
Yes I thank you so much for sharing this talent with me. Just so love this beautiful song and lyrics.
Wow. Brilliant, stunning, deceptively simple music made by four masters of their craft.
Immer wieder eines meiner Lieblingslieder mit den Everly brothers. Bin immer wieder hingerissen von diesem Lied. Danke fürs teilen. So eine große Freude
Beautifully sung love to the singers🌹
A lot of talent on that stage. Can you imagine singing as well as the Everly Brothers sing and being backed up by those two guitarists. What a beautiful rendition of a great song. Could listen forever.
What a wonderful video! thanks for such a gift for the eyes and ears! those voices, so harmonious! and Chet's niceness, Mark's smile! 🤩
Wonderful harmonies coupled with the best electric guitar accompaniment from Mark make this a real treasure !
I am so grateful that I have lived in a time of such great music but so sad that so many of these great musicians are already gone. Thank goodness for video so their talent can be enjoyed by future generations.
When you've grown up with Chet and the Everlys....Mark is a welcome interloper....doesn't get any better does it
What about the keyboard player. Have you not recognised him. Michael mcdonald
@@martindavis4632 I saw The Hair!
Just magic!
Mark isn't an interloper on this song because he actually wrote the song. The original version is on the 1985 Brothers in Arms album by Dire Straits and runs for eight and a half minutes. Knopfler gladly let them record it because they influenced his own music.
Mark's chops are off the chart. One of the greatest.
