  • Mark Knopfler, 4 times, Knockin` On Heavens Door, until wartime before the escalation,
    Ted Christopher - vocals, Mark Knopfler - guitar
    This version was recorded in memory of the Dunblane Massacre on 13 March 1996, where 16 children and one adult were killed. A new verse was written, and the children's choir who sing the chorus are brothers and sisters of the victims. The song was released on 9 December 1996, and it reached number 1. The proceeds went to charities for children.
    The new verse added of Bob Dylan`s lyrics:
    `Lord, these guns have caused too much pain, This town will never be the same
    So, for the bairns of Dunblane, We ask, please, never again!`
    Bob Dylan's original Lyrics:
    Mama, take this badge off of me, I can't use it anymore
    It's gettin' dark, too dark to see, I feel I'm knockin' on heaven's door
    Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door, Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
    Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door, Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
    Mama put my guns in the ground, I can't shoot them anymore
    That long black cloud is comin' down, I feel I'm knockin' on heaven's door
    Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door, Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door
    Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door, Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door.
