    Mark Knopfler will always be a legend in my mind. The guy has a gift. The fact he was a finger strum was amazing

  • @vif13vf

    Thank you for not spoiling the FC by putting it in the title.

    • @JasonParadise
      @JasonParadise  6 років тому +35

      For sure! I've actually stopped mentioning FCs in titles altogether. This is also why I've shared some chokes like the recent John 5 "Perineum" video. :)

      thank you for spoiling the fc by typing this comment :P

    @CJG4L 6 років тому +92

    Now realize to the fact that Mark Knofler plays all of this WITHOUT a pick, just with his fingers

    • @masterchat1998
      @masterchat1998 6 років тому +9

      It would be impossible with a pick. Fingers are required.

    • @Paul_C
      @Paul_C 5 років тому +3

      What's more, he uses 6 strings. I HATE PEOPLE PRETENDING THEY CAN PLAY

    • @masterchat1998
      @masterchat1998 5 років тому +2

      @Michael Persico Believe me. It's impossible. I haven't found a single video in which that specific version of the song is covered at its fullest with a pick. Also, I play flamenco and I have fast fingers. That version is very difficult to pull of even with your fingers. It requieres a folk/country picking that would take years of learning. Surprisingly, the best cover that I've found of this version is played by a kid. Fast learner, huh?: ua-cam.com/video/COKrrhjFFvk/v-deo.html

      Also the man is left handed

    • @hellrose18
      @hellrose18 2 роки тому +2

      This chart needs a loot of work, a lot of unnecessary notes during the breakdown section and unnecessary tremolo picking when it's clear the guitar was just doing vibrato

  • @pixelsthered

    Guy called astsevum said in the chat that this reminded them of the Princess Bride.
    Same guy. Mark from Dire Straits composed and played the soundtrack to that movie.

    • @JasonParadise

      I had no idea about that! How cool.

  • @MrMetalhorse
    @MrMetalhorse 6 років тому +130

    Mark knofler is god. I fucking love how he keeps delaying the climax to the solo and it keeps building up and then...
    9:30

      I got blueballed so many times, but it has been worth it every single time.

    • @MrMetalhorse
      @MrMetalhorse 6 років тому +6

      Maro Delić I know right!!
      Every time I watch the live version I go insane, it builds, and builds up and when it finally comes is satisfying as fuck.

    • @sisisisi112
      @sisisisi112 6 років тому +1

      Mr. Metalhorse There’s a video Mark doing What It Is live in Rome and it is just astounding the guitarist he is

    • @DeusExProcella
      @DeusExProcella 2 роки тому

      This is a super late response, but I just agree 1000% one of the most satisfying things I've experienced in any song haha

  • @latinajoseph
    @latinajoseph 6 років тому +18

    Best version of this song. He actually natural strums the whole song too making his play even more impressive

    • @TheKiingmau5

  • @Droulix

    If you haven't seen the live video of this version of the song, i highly recommend it, such an amazing performance and probably best rendition of the song!

  • @landrybasket
    @landrybasket 6 років тому +17

    Thank you for playing this song! When my dad told that when he picked up guitar as a kid, his dad would always tell him he should learn the song, so he learned the song in honor of my grandpa. This is song is very important to us so thanks!

    Now we just need someone to chart the rest of the alchemy live songs. All the songs from that concert and arguably the best renditions of them and would be more fun than anything to be able to play.

    Jason, I want to thank you for recently inspiring me to get an X-Plorer controller and play Guitar Hero again for the first time in years. I’ve had an incredible amount of fun playing and listening to the songs you play on your channel and your streams. Keep on rocking!

  • @totz_the_plaid9625
    @totz_the_plaid9625 6 років тому +2

    I've got the Alchemy live double vinyl and DVD, and am so glad Dire Straits finally got into the HoF! There are many other great bands/artists that still deserve to have been in already, but hell yeah on Knopfler & co. finally getting their due!
