    5. Lady Writer - Mark Knopler (Lyrics)
    Lady Writer on the TV
    Talk about the Virgin Mary
    Reminded me of you
    Expectations left to come up to yeah
    Lady writer on the TV
    Yeah, she had another quality
    The way you used to look
    And I know you never read a book
    Just the way that her hair fell down around her face
    Then I recall my fall from grace
    Another time, another place
    Lady writer on the TV
    She had all the brains and the beauty
    The picture does not fit
    You talked to me when you felt like it
    Just the way that her hair fell down around her face
    Then I recall my fall from grace
    Another time, another place
    Yes and your rich old man
    You know he’d call her a dead ringer
    You got the same command
    Plus you mother was a jazz singer
    Just the way that her hair fell down around her face
    Then I recall my fall from grace
    Another time, another place
    Lady writer on the TV
    She knew all about a history
    You couldn’t hardly write your name
    I think I want you just the same as the
    Lady writer on the TV
    Talking about the Virgin Mary
    Yeah you know I’m talking about you and me
    And the lady writer on the TV
    Lady writer on the TV
    Talking about the Virgin Mary
    Yeah you know I’m talking about you and me
    And the lady writer on the TV

    I'm 52 years old, and this is and will be my favorite band forever, since I was 13 years old.

    Durante “la movida madrileña” hicieron su aparición en nuestro país y me enamoré platónicamente con 18 años de Mark un gran virtuoso de la guitarra que junto a Eric Clapton son los mejores guitarristas que ha dado el rock. Toca la guitarra sin púa lo que le da ese sonido tan característico. I love you Mark 💟☮️♎️

    Very nice video to watch.
    Mark Knopfler gently in control and with style,
    & David playing along like a young wild happy musician.
    And the sound of the early albums ...
    Great !
    Y GRACIAS !!!

    If we go back in 1979 with the Lady Writer Track I can only understand that Dire Straits as Group has Big ambitions on their Art Music ... I was really excited with Dire Straits and said to myself " it's a new Group whom Had mean unique art music School which Can exceed their Legendary as Group and Can Add many things in Art Music School

    Music piped in and some great acting to sale those albums - even though was some great times to live through. I wouldn’t want it any different. Now days isn’t even living and no such thing as true life true pple or music .

    something tells me this song is not played Live. Its too perfect and to the dot as per the studio recording which is never the case when Knopfler plays. He uses a lot of improvisation and creativity when playing Live.

    • @jesuscatena3879
      @jesuscatena3879 3 роки тому

      Yeah it was playback although they mimic the entire song amazingly well. "Aplauso" was a very good Spanish TV show where lots of bands from across the globe performed there most of them playback.

    Exactly as per the Album recording, it's mimed (in a nice way though) .. 3:22 here you can tell the lead guitar sound and video don't match haha

  • @markknopflerisnot
    @markknopflerisnot 2 роки тому

    Something about this performance does not fit, it does not look live......the sounds coming at us do not synch with the actions of the players...there are a few occasions when both guitarists are strumming whilst the soundtrack has a lead guitar line playing simultaneously with the vocals, yet neither guitarist is even attempting to mime the fingerwork
