When I was going to Vietnam, Joan was protesting, but with style. I loved the lady and the music, then , and she is still just as beautiful inside and out now, as then.
Wonderful voice. She sang beautifully about all of our suffering under oppression. But Mark Knopfler’s creation is a lesson on any voice you can think of. Thanks to both of them
sie ist vor allen Dingen normal geblieben, obwohl sie mit völlig abgedrehten Typen zusammen ihr Leben gestaltet hat. Sie ist glaubwürdig in ihrer Aussage und in dem was ihre Lieder ausdrücken. Insbesondere das Mitgefühl, was ihr dem Cellisten in Sarajevo ausgedruckt hat. Not und Leid hat sie nie zu Ihrem Vorteil genutzt, sondern immer der Hoffnung auf eine bessere Welt.
Once every five years or so I stumble upon a song that actually makes me cry. This is one of them. A stunningly beautiful performance. Joan looks and sings like an angel and one can only dream of the emotional impact this would have with Mark's guitar added on top. I'm truly grateful to have heard this.
OMFG,,,, 47, ex service and sat here blubbing like a frikkin baby,, this song has meaning to me and to hear it sang like this, it really is , im lost for friggin words ,, so will end it at that,, love this version,,
Jimmy Cricket Lopez, I believe you are paid for your job also. Soldiers made our lifestyle a life of choice! Thank you to all who served so we that we may have freedom
AS someone who has been in the forces, this song brings tears to my eyes. Joan gives it justice. No complicated lyrics with hidden undertones, just simple words that mean so much to us. Friends I have lost and live in different worlds now---to me anyway.
This morning (12/25/16) I saw the ESPN 30 for 30 episode: Once Brothers about Yugoslavia, Serbo-Croatia. Vlade Divac and Drazen Petrovic. (I was a peace-time Russian linguist). So after the show, I went out to the lake for a cigarette. The first guy to walk by had a basketball jersey on. The 2nd guy was a Russian from Moscow. I could tell by his accent that he was almost for sure Slavic, so I asked him in Russian what country he was from. We spoke for a moment, enjoyed a good chuckle over a joke that one of my schoolmates had made about peace-time "spies". Peace.
This album was newly out when I was in US Paratrooper training. We all stood at the head busters bar jukebox and listened, beer in hand. There was a silence as this song played and we all knew right away that this was our song.
When you have a voice as rich as this lady's you dont need a guitar solo, but having said that can you imagine her and Knopfler doing this song together. Excellent song
What an idea. That would be a meeting of, possibly, the sweetest electric guitar sound of all time and, most likely, the sweetest folk rock voice ever on planet earth. It might be almost too good.
I swear that Joan Baez should be a saint. Her dedication, her continuous non- violent protests, her voice and her quest for peace, are unsurpassed by anyone on earth. God bless you Joan Baez and thank you for everything you have given us!!!!!
While I was fighting with my brothers in arms against russia for our independence I listened this song many times. And I remembered my lioved city - Dnipro
Respect from Hamburg Germany for Singing and Fighting 60 Years for Peace and Justice in these cruel World.Joan you are an Angel sent by GOD.A Warrior of Peace!!! GOD bless you and your Sisters Mimi Farina.
Erreur, ce n'est pas Mark Knopfler qui est a l'origine de la chanson, Elle a été écrite par dire en 1982 (guerre des Malouines) Ce tube a été reprise par Mark et Johan Baezz
WOW! im into heavy metal and guitar bands but this lovely woman really moves me, she still has that lovely voice from all those years ago . now we have two perfect versions of that amazing beautiful song
Me also Metal-Head (mostly, not all the time). Her performance on the Silent Running- Soundtrack is taking my breath away every time. Of course this one too! There are only very few singers that can touch my heart and make me (almost) cry... 👍
I didn't think I'd hear a performance of this song to compare with the Dire Straits 1985 album version but I should have known better. The amazing Joan Baez brings the spirit of the 1960s into a 1980s song and makes it timeless.
60 Jahre soziales Engagement mit glasklarer Stimme u. herrlichem Gitarrenspiel, Das ist einmalig auf dieser Welt! Deine Musik begleitet mich schon das ganze Leben. Dir noch ein langes gesundes Leben. Danke Joan Baez!!!
"There's so many different worlds So many different suns And we have just one world But we live in different ones" How wonderful are those words . When humans would understand that the world is one!
Mark Knopfler can play guitar like few others with a voice which matches Guitar George, often just pure emotion, but Joan Baez's voice is just pure honey dripping with emotion - Knopfler's raw vocals taken somewhere else. Stunning, absolutely breathtaking.
Une grande dame... Engagée qui sait si bien chanter l'amour... Un moment inoubliable au campo santo de Perpignan! Plus qu'une voix une belle âme! Merci pour ce moment...
One of the greatest songs ever written. You could pick any one of a hundred people to sing this and it would still sound incredible. Amazing how someone can sit and put something like this together.
Joan use to buy tickets from me at a little bass outlet in Palo Alto. I got to know her a little. She’s a wonderful kind lady. I’m sad I never got to play music with her. She offered to jam a little but I had too much on my plate at the time. The last time I saw her she said take care Tommy, you’re a good egg. I miss her
This would never be played on major radio today....such a shame the culture has settled for hip hop crap etc as mainstream choice of music. If not for auto tune most singers today could not carry a tune......
This song is one of my favorites. And Joan Baez has one of the greatest voices I ever heard. That broughts me tears in my eyes even if I'm not sure to understand all the lyrics.
Congrats, Dr. Lee, or returning home and making something of yourself. My brothers, twins, both served, one for two years as an FO, first on the ground and then in the air, and the other for 18 months flying slicks. Each made a career of flying choppers, then, first as oil workers in the Middle East, then as forestry workers fighting fires, and lastly as civilian medivacs. I'm as proud of you as I am of them, sir.
its ok, but i dont think an emotional vocal like this suits the song, I've hardly heard any cover of MK or DS that does it better. This song would be nothing without the minimalistic chill vocals of the legend:)
I already had heard and have Joan Baez cd;s and LP's.... well I am amazed that I thought a song that was an original is not at all. I love this version this artist has the most amazing sound and clarity. She is an icon.
Recuerdo a esta cantante y hoy la redescubro porque mi madre la escuchaba cuando yo era pequeño , que hermosa voz y que lindas letras interpreta!!!!!!!!!!!!
Stumbled across this by accident, but why anyone would dislike what is probably the greatest anti-war song ever, escapes me. On a par with Tom Paxton, check out his stuff, legend.
I saw this after seeing the video clip from SEAL Team where David Boreanz' character walks up the ramp of the Galaxy and takes his spot in the team leader's position as they take the coffin of Bravo 1 off the plane...this is the version they should have used....
Seit 3 Jahrzehnten mit Herz und Hirn bei Ihr und bei mir. Brothers in arms is my live. Wie schön und wunderbar, dass es sie bis heute für mich und uns gibt! We all love she! In Austria, we have so much love to her!
She changed the lyric "we have just on world/but we live in different ones" to "why live in different ones?" Changes it from a simple observation to a challenge to mankind. Makes more sense, too.
JOAN BAEZ has one of the most wonderful voices of all times! Her songs echo anger,protest and determination ! She's unique in her fight for freedom and resistance to injustice and oppression!

Une des plus belles chansons jamais écrites par un terrien , interprétée par la voix d'un ange : Bouleversant !
Beautiful version. Joan has the most beautiful voice!!🌼💛
When you have a voice as rich as this lady's you dont need a guitar solo, but having said that can you imagine her and Knopfler doing this song together. Excellent song
You have to read the lyrics to fully appreciate this song and why it is meant for all of man's history:
What a wonderful version by Joan.
Her voice together with the guitar skills of Knopfler, possibly a dream duet?
What an idea.
That would be a meeting of, possibly, the sweetest electric guitar sound of all time and, most likely, the sweetest folk rock voice ever on planet earth.
It might be almost too good.
I could’nt say better, exactly what went to my mind when I heard this 😊

Great version of a fabulous song. No matter wich side you're from, fallen soldiers have a family, loved ones, poeple they love. Bothers in arms...
Incredible rendering by one of the finest singing voices of all time of a great anti-war song by Mark Knopfler.
not exactly an anti-war song. more of a solidarity song with fellow soldiers

The song in the right voice, no one better than Joan Baez to sing Brothers in Arms. It touches the soul, wonderful! A direct hug from Brazil! 🇧🇷
É nóis. 😊
The original version by Dire Straits was better.
Hug from Italy! 🇮🇹

"There's so many different worlds
So many different suns
And we have just one world
But we live in different ones"
How wonderful are those words . When humans would understand that the world is one!
The World is ONE and the Universe too
This world may well be one but it's one of many identical ones...and in some we understand this.
Beautiful Joan, so fortunate to have been born in a world with her beautiful voice.
Have been listening to Knopfler sing this for bloody years and can now understand the words
Tonight (Dec 2022) is the first time I heard this version and Baez’ is superior by far
Mark Knopfler can play guitar like few others with a voice which matches Guitar George, often just pure emotion, but Joan Baez's voice is just pure honey dripping with emotion - Knopfler's raw vocals taken somewhere else. Stunning, absolutely breathtaking.
I could´ve never imagined that someone could performe this song as well as MK, different version, but an awesome cover
maji1959
Even better!
Right on!
Canzone bellissima e in questa versione di Joan Baez forse ancora più bella. Meraviglia!
Joan Beaz has an absolutely beautiful voice.
And she has had that voice for almost 60 years.
fucking A hasn't changed at all the true great folk singer . if you are a guitar player you will love diamonds and rust step down chords
yes
Awesome rendition...made the hair on my neck stand up. Wonderful!
I never get tired of this version. Play it whenever I`m in the mood. Joan Baez has such a lovely voice.
Wonderful voice for one of The Most beautiful Song of Mark

One of the great moments in my life was when I realized I was on the wrong side of that war. So was the other side.
I love Joan Baez and Dire Straits. They have different styles but they are wonderful.
+joy watson The voice form joan plus the music style from Dire Straits would be the greatest music ever.
+John Constantinides Sheryl Crow sucks! NO talent beotch.
I wish they would get together, Joan's voice and Mark's guitar - WOW!

60年代，私が小学生の頃，私の心からの憧れであり，歌姫でした。この曲は彼女のオリジナルといえるほどフィットしていますよね。ありごとう。ただただ感謝です。

so true
Not like Joan

Linda versão. Joan Baez é maravilhosa, transmite uma emoção particular a música.

I like this version the best. Joan does a fantastic job.

Magnificent. Joan did the song justice. The way she holds the notes. Sweet yet poignant.
This would never be played on major radio today....such a shame the culture has settled for hip hop crap etc as mainstream choice of music. If not for auto tune most singers today could not carry a tune......
RON Dennis Wheeler If I were a veteran I would choose to have this played at my funeral
This song is one of my favorites. And Joan Baez has one of the greatest voices I ever heard. That broughts me tears in my eyes even if I'm not sure to understand all the lyrics.
a beautiful touching song that takes me back to Vietnam 1969, to the people I knew and won't be seeing again on this earth.
Holy shit - Two of my favorites singing a wonderful underrated Knopfler song. Brilliant!
Ouvir essa música sozinho em um dia chuvoso com essa voz é se conecta com a verdade por alguns instantes.
Brilliant cover version of the Dire Straits song, exceptional lyrics by Mark Knopfler
Que bellezón de mujer,además canta como los angeles..Bravo Joan Baez
Joan does a great job with this tune, hauntingly beautiful, wonderful performance..
Guapísima Joan Baez , con esa maravillosa voz que te llega a lo más profundo del alma.
la lengua espagnola es asi cerca al corazon......gracias de Allemagna
A beautiful rendition of one of my favorite songs.
started looking at top 10 crying songs and found this in a circle of beauty.
What God given talent is this. To create a window into mans soul through music such as this.
One of the most haunting songs. Takes me back to childhood when I discovered the Dire Straits album on which the recorded this song.
I humbly dedicate this song to my brothers in arms who never came home. A Marine corpsman who survived two tours in country. Ira Lee, Ph.D.
The Spirits of the lost are among us all.
@@dbarrystock Sometimes for a moment or so I believe that but most of the time I know the loss is just that - gone.

What a beautiful lady. I have been blessed by her voice since the 60's and given many thanks for the experience.
I was a little boy when someone gave me a tape with songs from Joan. The memory and especially the chills remains...thank you Joan..... xx
Excellent rendition of a phenomenal song. I never thought anyone could do it as good as Knofler..this is very good
Thank you so much Joan for your beautiful and touching honoring of Mark Knopfler Brothers in Arms. God bless you and everyone from Patrick
Thank you Joan for sharing such a beautiful rendition of an extremely inspirational anti-war song for everyone's benefit. God bless everyone from Pat
The voice of Joan add more feeling to this fantastic song. Great interpretation.
This is one fantastic version of this song. I love the guitar parts in the Dire Straits version but her voice is unbelievably stunning. wow
its ok, but i dont think an emotional vocal like this suits the song, I've hardly heard any cover of MK or DS that does it better. This song would be nothing without the minimalistic chill vocals of the legend:)
The Dire Straits version? they fucking wrote it !!
i forgive you because you're a woman
Incredible voice for this beautiful song.
A truly amazing cover of the original...it brings a lump to my throat when i listen to it.

It's difficult to listen to this version without singing the guitar lines!! Mark Knopfler is a Genious!! :)
Everyone in the world should listen to these lyrics and let them sink in. There's Hope.....
Beautiful lady with a timeless voice
Still brings a tear to my eye. BROTHERS!
GREAT VERSION. I LOVE IT.
Very nice. Glad I found this. Love Joanie and love Mark K. He wrote so many beautiful songs.
She knocks this out of the park so beautifully!
She does this song well; with justice...
+Garegh62
Joan's beautiful voice makes up for the absence of Mark's guitar,
however, both versions are beautiful in their own right.
Now here is a musical soul with a reply that cuts through those with a less perceptive one ?
I agree. Both versions are fabulous depending on your music fix for the day or night.
I think the melody and harmony are brilliant in their own right (together with the lyrics!)
OH WOW! I can only dream of Joan's angelic voice over Mark's devilish guitar!
Chapeau what a beautifull voice she has and this is music for ever.
Trés grande Dame de la chanson internationale, et quelle carrière, merci pour ce bon moment.
Фантастика! Потрясающий голос! Великолепное исполнение!
Great Cover Joan ... your like a good wine ... get better with years ...
Had forgotten the beauty of her voice, thank you
Absolutely beautiful . Wonderful voice 🥰
It's fantastic! Beautiful song, pretty voice!
Quando una voce meravigliosa incontra un testo intenso e profondo, viene fuori una magia.
what a great version. Stunning Joan, as usual
I hav to say this is beautiful song and sang beautifully.we all feel like this I think at times especially when we are away from loved one's or home.
Seit 3 Jahrzehnten mit Herz und Hirn bei Ihr und bei mir. Brothers in arms is my live. Wie schön und wunderbar, dass es sie bis heute für mich und uns gibt! We all love she! In Austria, we have so much love to her!
love it , such a beautiful voice .
She changed the lyric "we have just on world/but we live in different ones" to "why live in different ones?" Changes it from a simple observation to a challenge to mankind. Makes more sense, too.
JOAN BAEZ has one of the most wonderful voices of all times! Her songs echo anger,protest and determination ! She's unique in her fight for freedom and resistance to injustice and oppression!
Always - the voice of an earthbound angel!
