I want to dedicate this song to all the people who struggle from anxiety to depression, from being bullied to being fatally ill. I don't know if or when things will get better and I don't know your struggles, just know that you're not alone . I hope this masterpiece will give you some type of comfort like it does to me. I'm sending love to all of you 💕
lovely words shani......i listen every day but i have got to the point where i dont give a shit what others think or say about me. i hope everyone can get to where i am
As I continue to fight the battle with Stage IV cancer, this song is the one that calms & comforts, as few can. Hold your loved ones close. You never know what life has in store. Never wait til "later" to spend time with and hug your loved ones. Do it now, while you still can. 4 years and the fight goes on!
I wish you good health and will pray for you. But, more than anything else, we need to remember our Creator and what He has given to us and that we all have to go back to Him. Your love for your Creator will help you fight thru any battle. Nobody lives forever and we all have to return to Him.
This song should be used as a part of therapy. It’s better than most of the counselors and therapists. Seek treatment and help. Listen to encouraging songs of hope and stay strong. You can do it. Don’t let life kill you. I survived stage 4 cancer, multimillion $ bankruptcy and divorce! I feel better than ever. Sometimes losing is winning. Peace, Love & Live.
That may be true but you saying that it's better than therapy is stupid and shows you have no clue what therapy is and how it is discovering mechanisms and barriers within yourself that have been implanted by your life experiences and the people in your life that have effected you negatively.
@chadrew6 Therapy may not be the solution to everything! Also people differs, from each other and also regarding situations.. so subjecting human health to pre-settled standards is full crap!
For my little sister, Mireille. I placed these words on your grave as a teenager. Now I'm 51 years old and you would be 49. You still help me make sense of what I do and when I'm listening, I hear you tell me ... why worry now? 😔🙏💛 Anyway, we both love Mark Knopfler where his guitar continues and tells the rest of the story ... and it's your face I'm looking for on every street
Funny I come across your comment its nearly three yrs from I lost my twin brother, I grieving today like I found out yesterday this song come on and it's like him speaking to me , sorry for your loss hope your ok xx
Lost my cousine 26 years ago, still grieving. She was like my sister, which I didn't have. We saw such a shiny future, where her and my children would be together like we where. She died within 3 month, only 24 years.
I was in a coma on life support for nine days. Not that I know any more about it than anyone else but from my experience if everyone's brain works the same I can tell you for sure your friend is having the greatest most realistic dreams you can't even imagine if you haven't been there.
A Serbian musician living in Hungary, compensates those Western media organs who haven't taken the effort to turn the deserved attention to this song. Zoran Stevanovic, former leader, lead singer and lead guitarist of Metro, has made a cover of it as a soloist. He's dedicated it to his daughter Sandra. ua-cam.com/video/RorrRnLjfJI/v-deo.html
"Why Worry" Baby, I see this world has made you sad Some people can be bad The things they do, the things they say But baby, I'll wipe away those bitter tears I'll chase away those restless fears And turn your blue skies into grey Why worry, there should be laughter after pain There should be sunshine after rain These things have always been the same So why worry now? Why worry now? Baby, when I get down I turn to you And you make sense of what I do I know it isn't hard to say But baby, just when this world seems mean and cold Our love comes shining red and gold And all the rest is by the way Why worry, there should be laughter after pain There should be sunshine after rain These things have always been the same So why worry now? Why worry now?
If you need a good cry and reminiscing the good old days. This is the song for you. When I was a kid this song would be played in my aunt and uncle’s car when we would return from my grandma’s in Wisconsin. Always brings back memories. Definitely a song I need today.
I remember playing this at full blast on a car stereo when I wore a younger man's clothes sat on top of a hill side in Wales...Still touches me deep inside to day....❤
Just think of this - some people including myself will never sit on top a hill in Wales even though we wish we could. You were fortunate - all I ever saw were African vistas....
This song helped turn me around after a bad couple of days after suffering from an anxiety attack. On the third day when the anxiety had lifted, this song kept playing throughout the day in my head. And it was most welcome. I owe a lot to this band.
Anxiety is a killer iv been a victim to it, made me harder than I ever thought, iv been all over a cpl of wars, try look after your health don't over think things, control is just an illusion, but the small things in life you have control over do your best,don't pressure your self or allow anyone else to, exercise is excellent for burning of all that dark energy that anxiety feeds of, and you never know what tomorrow may bring, lastly don't withdraw, I'm not giving you a lecture just came to these conclusion, hope you feel better.
I've buried two brothers I know and feel your pain. This world can be so cruel. I take comfort from the warmth of the sun to the sound of rain on the roof to watching the trees in the wind .
@Jim good to hear Jim i hope you are in a better place now but if you need a long distance helping hand just respond and i will try to do everything i can.. keep your head up man, nothings gonna bring you down!! I by the way totally agree about the album
I remember travelling 26 miles to buy this album on the day it was released, I bought it on both LP and CD. This song is for the memory of my deceased daughter Debbie who sadly lost her fight the day before this album was released! It was the hardest thing I have ever done, looking her in the eyes as I turned her life support machine off aged just six weeks old. 🏴
Baby, I see this world has made you sad Some people can be bad The things they do, the things they say But baby, I'll wipe away those bitter tears I'll chase away those restless fears And turn your blue skies into gray Why worry There should be laughter after pain There should be sunshine after rain These things have always been the same So why worry now Why worry now Baby, when I get down I turn to you And you make sense of what I do And though it isn't hard to say But baby, just when this world seems mean and cold Our love comes shining red and gold And all the rest is by the way Why worry There should be laughter after pain There should be sunshine after rain These things have always been the same So why worry now Why worry now
Baby, sweet angel, blue daze 420. Carmen, you are my miracle, my teenage fantasy dream girl. I'll do whatever it takes 2 tame the demons within if ever you may worry. So why worry now? Im ever indebted to you. For god chose me 2 guard, protect, and help save your soul. For god blessed me, when he chose you, 2 save mine
I played this song on a loop while my Mom was sick with cancer. I had hope even up until the end. God had other plans for her. He took her home. This song still plays in my mind often. It will forever be tied to the loss of my Sweet and loving Mother. I miss you every day. Love you Mommy Forever in our hearts ❤️🙏🏻
Just found out that my wife is pregnant with our second child. She had a misscarriage earlier this year and it’s been a sad year all over. But I listened to this song at work and thought to myself that everything is going to be alright some time and you can’t go and worry and overthink everything all the time. She surprised me when I came home from work and this song is forever going to remind me of this moment. I’m very grateful for that ❤️
I couldn't listen to this song for 2 years aftermy father died. He went way to early and suddenly, it devastated me. He played me this song when I was a child and now I listen to it and it takes me to him. I feel him around me and it feels like he is singing it to me. Music is so emotive. Thankyou Dad for your taste is music, I miss you so much, RIP you beautiful soul 💞
@Glen Camenzuli My father was not the best father. I resented him very much for a long time. But now I am older and matured I see whatever the flaw he had doesn't matter any more. I have realized he loved me in his way. I feel sad because I didn't give him enough love. It taught me to love everyone around me as much as I can regardless their flaw because at the end love is the only thing that matters. I am sending you love wherever you are!
Hi I never heard older music before and I left the play next song thing on and fell asleep . Woke up and this was playing . I sat up in bed and hit rewind and then again and then again and again and again and I couldn't believe it . First time I ever heard this and haven't stopped listening for few days . What a tune . It's funny how you can be humbled by a song . I wanted to say thanks to everyone and give a virtual hug . And don't worry . Peace
That warm summer of 1985. Live Aid, Bruce Springsteen and this amazing album. I was 22 and I took my girl to see Dire Straits on Live Aid day. Whenever I play this, it plants me back into the feel of that summer, which was so much about the transition from teenager to adulthood.
I was 24 in 1990 and served in the Airforce in Lajes Field Azores. I dated a Portuguese girl there during my tour. We used to dance to this song. She was an incredible person. I’m happily married to someone else now going on 28 years but still think about Manuela when I hear this song and hope she is happy.
My dearest wife of 63 years recently passed away, she was very disabled and I had cared for her over 13 years. This wonderful composition was played at the funeral, and when I have a fit of melancholy (such as now) I am consoled by the soothing affect this has upon me, but of course, it will always bring a tear to the eye and I know, that with arms outstretched she is waiting. "Our love comes shining red and gold and all the rest is by the way." My thanks to Mark for this wonderful treasure.
You have my deepest sympathy. I was told in late spring that I was dying. I have been married for 31 years & still am "only" 51. Within a short time of our wedding, my health, which had never been good, quickly went downhill. A neurologist (whom I saw bi-weekly) had become like a father-figure & warned me that MD's are not taught how to handle chronic conditions, never mind pain & to watch out for the time when friends & family would also leave (we're too close, I thought). We three, in our nuclear family, including me, are all I've got now! Due to the family's coldness, I am choosing no funeral or "celebration of life". Sounds selfish but should the family who can't pick up the 'phone be allowed to weep at a grave? Sorry for adding my woes but I am perplexed at it all.
@Ribbons&Bows: Thank you for your kind comment. I just wish that I was able to bring some comfort to your predicament, perhaps my favourite verse line will be meaningful "Our love comes shining Red and Gold". My best wishes for your future ...Vic
@@victorwarwick449 I've had a particularly bad 24 hours & there was your kind comment waiting, when I sat down at the computer! The little secret that I didn't mention but I hope, having chosen their music at your beloved's funeral gives you even a little smile in sharing. My husband grew up with Mark (Knopfler) & his brother David . Mark, especially is down-to-earth & his words, when he writes, are carefully chosen. I love music, all kinds, sang, played keyboards, clarinet & saxophone. Thank you for the words, without my husband, I wouldn't have made it thus far. I must admit that I vacillate about the funeral as it's not like me to seek retribution. Through it all, with deep faith, we hoping that all of my specialists' prognosis will be prolonged or miracle of miracles, I will somehow, "make it". Thank you, once again, Mr. Warwick. You'll be in my thoughts & prayers.
@@CartePostale. I hope you feel better soon! You need to focus on what you have and not what you don't have. When the time will comes, it would be good to have a funeral, so that a priest or rabbi can bless your soul and your husband and friends can say goodbye. Does that make sense? God bless you and I hope you can heal your soul and your body.
The second half of this song, the outro, is almost like a separate song, a hidden track. I remember being driven through the Lake District as a teenager in the late Eighties when this came on the car stereo. It was autumn and the sudden synchronicity between the beauty of what I could see and what I could hear is a moment that will never leave me.
Like probably many of you, my job is a great source of stress and anxiety. I find myself worrying about nonsense that hasn't even happened yet. It can be really debilitating and depressing. This song truly helps center me and puts things into perspective. We've all had misfortunes and setbacks before, and we've dealt with them and moved on with our lives. Why worry about it. Here's to peaceful days, now and always.
Hello Dear Matt, I randomly saw your letter just now after being reminded of this lovely song and looking on the miraculous u. tube..yep; loved your letter , we've gotta paddle through the rapids sometimes..some modern thinking suggests we should be happy all-the-time.. of course we're going to be unhappy too...the trick is remembering to play , even in the bad times . .. Thanks again for your letter. x
As a kid, I would fall asleep to this song - it was one of the first albums I ever owned. Now, my son asks for it almost every night as his bedtime song.
In 1976 I flew to Maui on a one-way ticket with $150 in my pocket, stayed 27 years. It was so much more laid back there in those days, and I used this song when it came out as the soundtrack, starting at 4:27, with a video montage of Maui scenics and happenings. Brings back fond memories of a Maui I miss and will always cherish.
I'd be honored if some Dire Straits & Sting fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of ON EVERY STREET and ENGLISHMAN IN NEW YORK on my YT channel in tribute to these 2 great songwriters from the majestic city of Newcastle. Live acoustic with no autotune or digital editing. Thanks and RESPECT to the legends.
vb3347 yes. I had not thought of this song for years and just was thinking of so many worrying now and it came back to me. Had to share it with my wife.
I was right about to share it in my social networks, specially dedicated to my girlfriend, who works at a hospital and has to deal with a lot of stress and anguish every day.
After battling depression I take comfort with this song I adopted this song as my theme song after trying 2 suicide attempts from stress and losing so many of loved ones to cancer overdoses makes me feel good
This song makes me think of my children and the wonderful memory's we had growing up as a happy family. From bed time to camping sitting by the camp fire to their first broken heart. Love everyone and respect life. God bless.
It is amazing how a single song brings back so many memories and so many beautiful feelings for so many people, for so many years ... Beauty is eternal and cannot be counted by years, but much of God's beauty is in this song. Thank you, Mark Knopfler.
Listening to this wonderful song on boxing day 2021 with my hubby of 24 years and our 3 dogs. May God bless the world in 2022 with love, peace and kindness. From South Africa.
This is a beautiful song lovely lovely words. Yes why worry This is magnifiek I like to sleep to everybody don't Worry Be Happy thank you MK for this lovely song you are the best❤❤🎸🎸💕💕
First time this ever happened to me ... 1985, was walking in a mall, and heard this song - at about the 4:36 mark to the end (you know the part) - wafting through the walkways, and I couldn't believe what I was hearing. I ran into the record store that was playing this over their in store speakers, and all out of breath, asked them "Who is this on this song?" and they said "It's the new Dire Straits album" .. Hit me like a ton of bricks .. I was a fan of DS, but back then you didn't get much advance airing of songs before the album came out. Bought Brothers in Arms on the spot, and I think other people also got in line with the album. Just a peaceful, spiritual song ...
Reminds me of my time in Spain with a most amazing and loving lady. She had to return to US but this song narrows the 8000 miles distance and moves her to here in my heavy heart. Love you Tiny xxxxxxxx
I adore the outro to this track so much. I had this album on cassette all through my childhood and teens. The long outdo was cut on the cassette version of this track so the songs could fit onto the cassette sides. What a joy to discover it years later... and play on repeat forever!
My very first girlfriend made me listen to this. I used to hate this song the most after we broke up but just now, I realized how calming this is. Maybe she knew from the beginning that our thing wouldn't last long. There is sunshine after rain.
I love a good Rockin' song, but I'm of the opinion that if music can reach in and grab your emotions and move you to tears or if it holds irreplaceable memories of those you have loved and they have since passed, it places that music on an entirely different level. There aren't a great deal of songs that are capable of properly honoring such a time in one's life. My mom had breast cancer 15 years ago. I had flown down to spend time with her. I had put her robe on her, moved her to her wheel chair and we sat out in the backyard. We didn't say a word to each other. There was no need. I went into the house and I had a CD playing. This particular song came on when I reached the back door, I stood there and just stared at her and the tears began to flow. She died a week later. Now every time I hear the song, I'm at that back door, taking in every detail of her face because I knew this would be the last time I saw her. That memory is as vivid as it was the day I was standing at that back door. The memory, the feelings and the thoughts I experienced at that back door allowed me to stop the world if only for a few minutes because I needed it. It was a beautiful, extremely sad and powerful moment, all wrapped in one and had the music not been playing, I would not have had the memory in such safe keeping.....the music.
Thank you for sharing your story. I am amazed at how music can make time stand still, or feel as if you are in that moment again. As if no time has passed at all.
MissDistarr I wanted to write a lot of things about what you wrote above...a lot of feelings came to me...but i had just to keep in silence...I lost my mother too...beautiful words...
Marcos Denizard I could say the words that are the only ones we know to say, but I'm not going to do that. I will say that I hope you find some peace from your grief and the incredible pain. Grieve in your own time and in your own way. It's hard to believe that life continues on while we are experiencing such pain. For some reason, we feel the world should stop, but it doesn't. We simply have to catch up to it. Can I ask you why you felt the need to keep in silence? Contrary to what a lot of people on youtube think, I believe people should feel free to discuss personal things. If others don't want to read it, they don't need to. But they should have the courtesy of letting people express their feelings if they so choose. Especially in this forum of music. It brings emotions and feelings to the very surface. And it is often easier to talk with a stranger and I think many people would but are afraid to talk about these things. It helps one to heal by talking. There are many people out there who have no compassion. But there a lot of compassionate people out there as well. You are one of them. Take care and thank you for your kind reply.
On my 17th birthday in 2018, my best friend gave me the 1988 Melodiya record from USSR as a gift. It's called "Greenpeace Breakthrough". That was the final song on the Side 4. Right now I'm 19 and this record - is my salvation, 'cause now there's a black line in my life and I live in constant fear. And once I even considered suicide. But, when I found that record on my shelves, placed it on my turntable and lowered the stylus - I heard this great music from U2, Belinda Carlisle, Peter Gabriel and many more. But when this song came - a different picture was in my head. I'm sure, that this song will be my salvation from fears in the future as well. R. I. P. Gregory, that friend who gave me this vinyl two years ago. He wasn't aware of what this record can do to me. Simply amazing!! Love Dire Straits from 2007. Thank you! With love from Moscow, Russia.
Time has softened my heart and mind as I've aged, thus has this song joined along my life journey. As a 20 something when BIA hit the shelves, the needle often skipped over this track in favor of the upbeat and driving tunes on this masterpiece. Now in my 50's, my mind often travels back more than forward. When I first heard this track and memories that accompany events wherein the needle remained in the groove and this track played on, I am somber, wiser and grateful. I hope you are having a superb day and this album will ease your mind!
@@jasonbarbush4991 hey brother, tears are just a chemical reaction dependent on your bodies ability to produce them. I havent cried a tear in 50 years. My emotions aren't muted by my bodies inability to produce tears, neither is yours. Lots of us non-tear producing people out there. Keep your love, sorrow, happiness real that's all that matters.
@Josina Mual , I'm familiar with your beliefs, but I don't subscribe to them. I'm a member of a messianic synagogue. When I mentioned crying, it wasn't from sorrow or confusion about my life circumstances, but simply from the sheer beauty of the music and the message.
I want to dedicate this song to all the people who struggle from anxiety to depression, from being bullied to being fatally ill. I don't know if or when things will get better and I don't know your struggles, just know that you're not alone . I hope this masterpiece will give you some type of comfort like it does to me. I'm sending love to all of you 💕
I used to protect those who were picked on a i was myself but stood up to them. Then it stopped.
lovely words shani......i listen every day but i have got to the point where i dont give a shit what others think or say about me. i hope everyone can get to where i am
This song makes me more sad . You know when you're depressed and remember your youth
Thank shanai peace and love
@@mrneal9079 At that point you don't give a shit about receving love or hate too from the average people too.
Ty. But for the kindness of strangers, we'd be lost. Ty
As I continue to fight the battle with Stage IV cancer, this song is the one that calms & comforts, as few can. Hold your loved ones close. You never know what life has in store. Never wait til "later" to spend time with and hug your loved ones. Do it now, while you still can. 4 years and the fight goes on!

I'm praying for you right now, Joey.
I wish you good health and will pray for you. But, more than anything else, we need to remember our Creator and what He has given to us and that we all have to go back to Him. Your love for your Creator will help you fight thru any battle. Nobody lives forever and we all have to return to Him.
Hope you are still fighting on.
Praying for your recovery and your life still ahead.
This song should be used as a part of therapy. It’s better than most of the counselors and therapists. Seek treatment and help. Listen to encouraging songs of hope and stay strong. You can do it.

Lost my cousine 26 years ago, still grieving. She was like my sister, which I didn't have. We saw such a shiny future, where her and my children would be together like we where. She died within 3 month, only 24 years.
That's beautiful.
😥😢
Anyone reading this, just looking for a touch of hope, there’s always sunshine after rain. Always laughter after pain. Promise.
The tears run every time i hear this work of art
Today I played this over the phone for a beloved friend who is on life support. May he dream beautiful dreams.
I was in a coma on life support for nine days.
Not that I know any more about it than anyone else but from my experience if everyone's brain works the same I can tell you for sure your friend is having the greatest most realistic dreams you can't even imagine if you haven't been there.
For sure not the most famous song of the Dire Straits, but my personal favorite by far
I agree, it is a wonderful part of my life.
Cool. Laid Back. And always waiting to be rediscovered as it is such an underrated song ... The genius of this Dire Straits band ... 👍👍👍
Yep👍

Agreed , it's my favorite too.
"Why Worry"
Baby, I see this world has made you sad
Some people can be bad
The things they do, the things they say
But baby, I'll wipe away those bitter tears
I'll chase away those restless fears
And turn your blue skies into grey
Why worry, there should be laughter after pain
There should be sunshine after rain
These things have always been the same
So why worry now?
Why worry now?
Baby, when I get down I turn to you
And you make sense of what I do
I know it isn't hard to say
But baby, just when this world seems mean and cold
Our love comes shining red and gold
And all the rest is by the way
Why worry, there should be laughter after pain
There should be sunshine after rain
These things have always been the same
So why worry now?
Why worry now?

Thank You.

Bless you, your brother will always be with, always part of you .
Deepest sympathy.
I've buried two brothers I know and feel your pain. This world can be so cruel. I take comfort from the warmth of the sun to the sound of rain on the roof to watching the trees in the wind .
After all these years, this song is still golden.
only 29 and im not perse a rock fan but this calms me down so much it is magic
@Jim good to hear Jim i hope you are in a better place now but if you need a long distance helping hand just respond and i will try to do everything i can.. keep your head up man, nothings gonna bring you down!! I by the way totally agree about the album
Yes Tricia, this song is still the best slow that I had listened
The great group dire straits
Yes. The whole album is amazing!
But this song is an anthem in the darkest times.
I still have the original album, this song has gotten me through alot over the years... Its Epic.
This is one of those songs that the more you hear it the more you'll like it.
Best song on the album, and that's saying something.
Totally agree with you!

Baby, I see this world has made you sad
Some people can be bad
The things they do, the things they say
But baby, I'll wipe away those bitter tears
I'll chase away those restless fears
And turn your blue skies into gray
Why worry
There should be laughter after pain
There should be sunshine after rain
These things have always been the same
So why worry now
Why worry now
Baby, when I get down I turn to you
And you make sense of what I do
And though it isn't hard to say
But baby, just when this world seems mean and cold
Our love comes shining red and gold
And all the rest is by the way
Why worry
There should be laughter after pain
There should be sunshine after rain
These things have always been the same
So why worry now
Why worry now
Baby, sweet angel, blue daze 420.
Carmen, you are my miracle,

Amazing lyrics ❤️
I hear this song, because a wonderful woman and mom died with Cancer ...I am so sad....

That turn your blue skies into grey.
Brothers in Arms is a great album. This is outstanding.
I played this song on a loop while my Mom was sick with cancer. I had hope even up until the end. God had other plans for her. He took her home.
This song still plays in my mind often. It will forever be tied to the loss of my Sweet and loving Mother. I miss you every day.
Love you Mommy
Forever in our hearts
❤️🙏🏻
Monica C sorry for you....she will be in peace
❤️❤️❤️
So sorry for your loss.
You have a great heart.

Just found out that my wife is pregnant with our second child. She had a misscarriage earlier this year and it’s been a sad year all over. But I listened to this song at work and thought to myself that everything is going to be alright some time and you can’t go and worry and overthink everything all the time. She surprised me when I came home from work and this song is forever going to remind me of this moment. I’m very grateful for that ❤️
God Bless peace ✌️
God bless you and good luck 🤞🏻
I would like to know how things are going for you and your wife now?
@@beverlysandifer548 just about to ask also
God Bless you and yours.
I couldn't listen to this song for 2 years aftermy father died. He went way to early and suddenly, it devastated me. He played me this song when I was a child and now I listen to it and it takes me to him. I feel him around me and it feels like he is singing it to me. Music is so emotive. Thankyou Dad for your taste is music, I miss you so much, RIP you beautiful soul 💞
@Glen Camenzuli They will! They will miss you terribly I know because I miss my Dad.
@Glen Camenzuli My father was not the best father. I resented him very much for a long time. But now I am older and matured I see whatever the flaw he had doesn't matter any more. I have realized he loved me in his way. I feel sad because I didn't give him enough love.
It taught me to love everyone around me as much as I can regardless their flaw because at the end love is the only thing that matters.
I am sending you love wherever you are!
This is why I try to share music with my children.
the pain does not pass you only learn you only understand
These words belong to a song by an Argentine music group called Airbag ... the original lyrics are in Spanish
Hey you random person going through the comment section have a wonderful day
Thank you! :)
Thanks Nana💓✌️
Thx, u2 😊👌
Thank you!
Thank you ☺ you to nana
The second half of this song is perfect.
Hi I never heard older music before and I left the play next song thing on and fell asleep . Woke up and this was playing . I sat up in bed and hit rewind and then again and then again and again and again and I couldn't believe it . First time I ever heard this and haven't stopped listening for few days . What a tune . It's funny how you can be humbled by a song . I wanted to say thanks to everyone and give a virtual hug . And don't worry . Peace
Welcome to the 80’s Patrick!👍🏻

You hit the jackpot!
That warm summer of 1985. Live Aid, Bruce Springsteen and this amazing album. I was 22 and I took my girl to see Dire Straits on Live Aid day. Whenever I play this, it plants me back into the feel of that summer, which was so much about the transition from teenager to adulthood.
I was 13 in '85... Dire Straits, ZX Spectrum, arcade games, school grades, basketball, first love... We were Kings once, too...
I was 24 in 1990 and served in the Airforce in Lajes Field Azores. I dated a Portuguese girl there during my tour. We used to dance to this song. She was an incredible person. I’m happily married to someone else now going on 28 years but still think about Manuela when I hear this song and hope she is happy.
It was a magical day!
My dearest wife of 63 years recently passed away, she was very disabled and I had cared for her over 13 years. This wonderful composition was played at the funeral, and when I have a fit of melancholy (such as now) I am consoled by the soothing affect this has upon me, but of course, it will always bring a tear to the eye and I know, that with arms outstretched she is waiting. "Our love comes shining red and gold and all the rest is by the way." My thanks to Mark for this wonderful treasure.
I wish you all well
You have my deepest sympathy. I was told in late spring that I was dying. I have been married for 31 years & still am "only" 51. Within a short time of our wedding, my health, which had never been good, quickly went downhill. A neurologist (whom I saw bi-weekly) had become like a father-figure & warned me that MD's are not taught how to handle chronic conditions, never mind pain & to watch out for the time when friends & family would also leave (we're too close, I thought). We three, in our nuclear family, including me, are all I've got now! Due to the family's coldness, I am choosing no funeral or "celebration of life". Sounds selfish but should the family who can't pick up the 'phone be allowed to weep at a grave? Sorry for adding my woes but I am perplexed at it all.
@Ribbons&Bows: Thank you for your kind comment. I just wish that I was able to bring some comfort to your predicament, perhaps my favourite verse line will be meaningful "Our love comes shining Red and Gold". My best wishes for your future ...Vic
@@victorwarwick449 I've had a particularly bad 24 hours & there was your kind comment waiting, when I sat down at the computer! The little secret that I didn't mention but I hope, having chosen their music at your beloved's funeral gives you even a little smile in sharing. My husband grew up with Mark (Knopfler) & his brother David . Mark, especially is down-to-earth & his words, when he writes, are carefully chosen. I love music, all kinds, sang, played keyboards, clarinet & saxophone. Thank you for the words, without my husband, I wouldn't have made it thus far. I must admit that I vacillate about the funeral as it's not like me to seek retribution. Through it all, with deep faith, we hoping that all of my specialists' prognosis will be prolonged or miracle of miracles, I will somehow, "make it". Thank you, once again, Mr. Warwick. You'll be in my thoughts & prayers.
@@CartePostale. I hope you feel better soon! You need to focus on what you have and not what you don't have. When the time will comes, it would be good to have a funeral, so that a priest or rabbi can bless your soul and your husband and friends can say goodbye. Does that make sense? God bless you and I hope you can heal your soul and your body.
I played this at my dad's funeral. It was one of his favorite songs.
🙏💟
RIP. He had great taste in music
xd
The second half of this song, the outro, is almost like a separate song, a hidden track. I remember being driven through the Lake District as a teenager in the late Eighties when this came on the car stereo. It was autumn and the sudden synchronicity between the beauty of what I could see and what I could hear is a moment that will never leave me.
The song is 8 minutes 20 seconds long which is how long it takes light to arrive from the Sun :)
This is beautiful. I never thought about that. Thank you 🌞
Copernicus had to be your late relative / I didn't know it / guess I finished high school for nothing.
This is my most favourite fact ever.
Also how long it takes for copulation😜
No freakin way
You just wonder....is it all a perfect thought in the mind of our heavenly father?
Brothers in Arms is an outstanding album
this song is so beautiful that it makes listening almost painful, makes me wans to cry.
I feel the same way
I am crying now.
@@willmpet don't be sad
Eu tambem Nina!❤
One of the greatest tracks of all time.
Like probably many of you, my job is a great source of stress and anxiety. I find myself worrying about nonsense that hasn't even happened yet. It can be really debilitating and depressing. This song truly helps center me and puts things into perspective. We've all had misfortunes and setbacks before, and we've dealt with them and moved on with our lives. Why worry about it. Here's to peaceful days, now and always.
TNX
cheers Matt!
Back to you. Peaceful and calm days may come your way.
Hello Dear Matt, I randomly saw your letter just now after being reminded of this lovely song and looking on the miraculous u. tube..yep; loved your letter , we've gotta paddle through the rapids sometimes..some modern thinking suggests we should be happy all-the-time.. of course we're going to be unhappy too...the trick is remembering to play , even in the bad times . .. Thanks again for your letter. x
Fucking shit
I like how they made their songs as long as they want, they didn't feel like they had to obey the "rule" of no more than 3-4 minutes.
@d R Fela Kuti being the specialists of endless songs , I love it ;)
Mark Knopfler (a modern musician, singer-songwriter God) does as he pleases.
This song is like a warm hug that I really need
It’s been 34 years but I still can’t beat the attraction of this classic album. Still listening to it now. Love it. Forever.
April 2022. Still listening, still loving. Bravo Mr. K.
The most perfect guitar tone of any recording artist. Flawless.
Wonderful song.
Thank you from Transylvania
Pretty sure this is one of Count Dracula's favourite tunes
As a kid, I would fall asleep to this song - it was one of the first albums I ever owned. Now, my son asks for it almost every night as his bedtime song.
Sean Rook i just put my daughters to sleep with this song!!
That's beautifull :')
A song of great inspiration. A song that gives hope in times of trouble.
Is he still asking for it four years later? 🤔
In 1976 I flew to Maui on a one-way ticket with $150 in my pocket, stayed 27 years. It was so much more laid back there in those days, and I used this song when it came out as the soundtrack, starting at 4:27, with a video montage of Maui scenics and happenings. Brings back fond memories of a Maui I miss and will always cherish.
This song makes me feel validated, this world makes me feel very alone like nobody is on my side… but this song though it gets me and it hugs me
você nunca está sozinha Márcia. deus está sempre presente. tudo de bom para você mocinha.
👍🤗🤗🤗👍 when I discovered this song this is exactly how I validated myself and I NEVER looked back!
Mr Mark Knopfler. You are a genius. A Masterpiece of a song.
I'd be honored if some Dire Straits & Sting fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of ON EVERY STREET and ENGLISHMAN IN NEW YORK on my YT channel in tribute to these 2 great songwriters from the majestic city of Newcastle. Live acoustic with no autotune or digital editing. Thanks and RESPECT to the legends.
Essa música é linda!
All of Mark Knopfler's songs have the most spiritual, soulful impact of music and lyrics that I have ever heard...
All of them? Like Money For Nothing?
@@docsavage8640 we don't talk about that
Possibly one of the most beautiful songs ever.
Possibly? Probably!
Is 👌🏼
So much healing and love compressed into all of 8 minutes. I love mark knopfler.
This should be the official soundtrack to the Coronavirus pandemic.
That's what I'm doing here. Stay safe.
that's why I am here
vb3347 yes.
I had not thought of this song for years and just was thinking of so many worrying now and it came back to me. Had to share it with my wife.
I was right about to share it in my social networks, specially dedicated to my girlfriend, who works at a hospital and has to deal with a lot of stress and anguish every day.
Fernando Fernandez
Thank her for all of us.
After battling depression I take comfort with this song I adopted this song as my theme song after trying 2 suicide attempts from stress and losing so many of loved ones to cancer overdoses makes me feel good
Hang in there pal. You're not alone. Many people struggle but put up a facade. If not for Christ I'd long been given up.
Good man
Good luck to you!
I hope you are well. Outstanding song
Goodluck to you!! life goes on.....
This song makes me think of my children and the wonderful memory's we had growing up as a happy family. From bed time to camping sitting by the camp fire to their first broken heart. Love everyone and respect life. God bless.
And God bless and protect you and yours I mean that, one day this nightmare will be over and there will be laughter after pain
what happened to them?
@@adrianpaul1985 they grew up. And started family's of their own. Cherish the simple things in life. Because time is a thief. God bless.
So many touching posts have gone before mine. This is truly for anyone and everyone who has ever loved
I'm sitting watching the sunset while I listen to knoppflers gentle voice singing this soft beautiful lulaby. I'm ready for tomorrow now
My teenage memories from the eighties.
It is amazing how a single song brings back so many memories and so many beautiful feelings for so many people, for so many years ... Beauty is eternal and cannot be counted by years, but much of God's beauty is in this song. Thank you, Mark Knopfler.
Another reason this album is so beloved
This is one of my favorite Dire Straits song.
The lyrics are so true.
Knopfler has truly captured the sound of Newcastle.
The absolute definition of beautiful music
Essa música trás uma paz de espírito tão grande que é difícil de explicar, muito boa, grande Mark Knoplfer...
Isso mesmo. Tenho saudades do Brasil e a gente que conhecia la. Faz 36 anos desde voltei aos Estados Unidos. Tudo de bom Marcelo!
Like aqui de Minas Gerais.
@@robthebeekeeper8997 like aqui de Minas Gerais.
Que levemos este tipo de música na mente e no coração, eternamente. E passemos esta herança para nossos filhos e netos.
Música linda
This song is flawless - beautiful music and amazing lyrics.
Listening to this wonderful song on boxing day 2021 with my hubby of 24 years and our 3 dogs. May God bless the world in 2022 with love, peace and kindness. From South Africa.
Thank you! 😉 Greetings from Germany Christian
Great hearing the full version...the vinyl version faded out around the 4:40 time.
A truly classic piece from Marc & Co. in the Dire Straits.
It's almost an hallucinogenic drug for the ears, it's so good.
What such an wonderful song!
This should be used as a therapy against anxiety!
Mark is a genius with a great talent!
this song should never end
alejandro erazo never. I teach u baby
That's what I said.
This is a beautiful song lovely lovely words. Yes why worry This is magnifiek I like to sleep to everybody don't Worry Be Happy thank you MK for this lovely song you are the best❤❤🎸🎸💕💕
Never listen to this Master piece without crying. So beautiful.
I'm with ya in that camp man...
First time this ever happened to me ... 1985, was walking in a mall, and heard this song - at about the 4:36 mark to the end (you know the part) - wafting through the walkways, and I couldn't believe what I was hearing. I ran into the record store that was playing this over their in store speakers, and all out of breath, asked them "Who is this on this song?" and they said "It's the new Dire Straits album" .. Hit me like a ton of bricks .. I was a fan of DS, but back then you didn't get much advance airing of songs before the album came out. Bought Brothers in Arms on the spot, and I think other people also got in line with the album. Just a peaceful, spiritual song ...
Quem do Brasil está ouvindo essa belíssima canção e em pleno 2020, dá um like aí?
Musica eterna que nunca enjoa
Eu ouço pra desestessar
Muito melhor que qualquer música feita no Brasil.
Descobri essa música há algumas semanas, foi paixão a primeira batida kk.
Música linda, as lágrimas rolam aqui.
For me, Dire Straits will always be considered the second best 80's Rock Group from the 80's after Queen. They're still so underrated
As opposed to queen, which is actually extremely overrated
@@user-zb8tq5pr4x hahaha sure
@@ren2871 glad you agree
Even without the words this tune is so beautiful...soulful 💔
The most beautiful song on the album imo.
Brothers In Arms the title track is the most deep of them all.
Most emotional, magical song ever. It is blessing to live at that the same era with these legendary people.
Not just a masterpiece, my all time favorite band. When I was in paratrooper school, this band made my day!
Amazing what the human brain can create such as this mans
Mark is a great guitar master, I love his music, is wonderfull.
Amen Marcelo!!!!!
One of the most " Low key" tune which turns out be one of the most beautiful song. It sometimes only takes a singer and a guitar to work wonders
This song is a masterpiece of the highest quality! "Why worry, so why worry now?"
In the times of Happiness, trouble, Wellness or pain, life or death, this song will always remind me that everything's going to be alright.
This is a jewel of Dire Straits. Love it
The drum solo and Knopfler’s guitar at the end is pure class !!!!
My Dad's Song. He wanted played at his funeral. Says everything. Miss him lots.
😪🤧
Reminds me of my time in Spain with a most amazing and loving lady. She had to return to US but this song narrows the 8000 miles distance and moves her to here in my heavy heart. Love you Tiny xxxxxxxx
I adore the outro to this track so much. I had this album on cassette all through my childhood and teens. The long outdo was cut on the cassette version of this track so the songs could fit onto the cassette sides. What a joy to discover it years later... and play on repeat forever!
My very first girlfriend made me listen to this. I used to hate this song the most after we broke up but just now, I realized how calming this is. Maybe she knew from the beginning that our thing wouldn't last long. There is sunshine after rain.
Heard this in the 90's and when I tried to find out what it was......Nada. No one would say anything. I think Chet Atkins covered it on guitar.
Yes, you are right...Why worry? Lovely music!!!🌹🙏🧡
Realmente, é uma linda musica.
I love a good Rockin' song, but I'm of the opinion that if music can reach in and grab your emotions and move you to tears or if it holds irreplaceable memories of those you have loved and they have since passed, it places that music on an entirely different level. There aren't a great deal of songs that are capable of properly honoring such a time in one's life. My mom had breast cancer 15 years ago. I had flown down to spend time with her. I had put her robe on her, moved her to her wheel chair and we sat out in the backyard. We didn't say a word to each other. There was no need. I went into the house and I had a CD playing. This particular song came on when I reached the back door, I stood there and just stared at her and the tears began to flow. She died a week later. Now every time I hear the song, I'm at that back door, taking in every detail of her face because I knew this would be the last time I saw her. That memory is as vivid as it was the day I was standing at that back door. The memory, the feelings and the thoughts I experienced at that back door allowed me to stop the world if only for a few minutes because I needed it. It was a beautiful, extremely sad and powerful moment, all wrapped in one and had the music not been playing, I would not have had the memory in such safe keeping.....the music.
Lovely and touching sentiments. May the memories always be with you.
Thank you for sharing your story. I am amazed at how music can make time stand still, or feel as if you are in that moment again. As if no time has passed at all.
MissDistarr I wanted to write a lot of things about what you wrote above...a lot of feelings came to me...but i had just to keep in silence...I lost my mother too...beautiful words...
MissDistarr Peace be with you Miss Distarr & your Mum is looking over you i believe :)
Marcos Denizard I could say the words that are the only ones we know to say, but I'm not going to do that. I will say that I hope you find some peace from your grief and the incredible pain. Grieve in your own time and in your own way. It's hard to believe that life continues on while we are experiencing such pain. For some reason, we feel the world should stop, but it doesn't. We simply have to catch up to it. Can I ask you why you felt the need to keep in silence? Contrary to what a lot of people on youtube think, I believe people should feel free to discuss personal things. If others don't want to read it, they don't need to. But they should have the courtesy of letting people express their feelings if they so choose. Especially in this forum of music. It brings emotions and feelings to the very surface. And it is often easier to talk with a stranger and I think many people would but are afraid to talk about these things. It helps one to heal by talking. There are many people out there who have no compassion. But there a lot of compassionate people out there as well. You are one of them. Take care and thank you for your kind reply.
One of the best songs ever.

Magnifique morceau ! Une pépite ! I love this song so much !!!
Sensacional .musica para lembrar os ótimos dias de 1986 .o tempo não volta o que volta e a vontade de voltar no tempo
My dad bought me this album when I was 13, when no one knew them. I could have loved him more, for realalising I was different , he is 80 in September
God preserves him and prolongs his life
Anne Howard a good dad .....
They've been famous since the 1970s somebody lied to you

@@PanglossDr Not in Scotland lol.
hard times like buying liquor with your fake hawaiian id?
So calm, and yet so powerful! Man, Dire Straits was my first music band and i love them ever since!
Que música linda, faz agente viajar ao passado,nos dá uma sensação de paz e leveza na nossa mente.ESPETACULAR!!!👏👏👏👏👏
Se eu nao me engano foi tema da novela roda de fogo . Eu tenho um cd so novelas e tem essa musica
On my 17th birthday in 2018, my best friend gave me the 1988 Melodiya record from USSR as a gift. It's called "Greenpeace Breakthrough". That was the final song on the Side 4. Right now I'm 19 and this record - is my salvation, 'cause now there's a black line in my life and I live in constant fear. And once I even considered suicide. But, when I found that record on my shelves, placed it on my turntable and lowered the stylus - I heard this great music from U2, Belinda Carlisle, Peter Gabriel and many more. But when this song came - a different picture was in my head. I'm sure, that this song will be my salvation from fears in the future as well.
R. I. P. Gregory, that friend who gave me this vinyl two years ago. He wasn't aware of what this record can do to me. Simply amazing!!
Love Dire Straits from 2007. Thank you!
With love from Moscow, Russia.
Time has softened my heart and mind as I've aged, thus has this song joined along my life journey. As a 20 something when BIA hit the shelves, the needle often skipped over this track in favor of the upbeat and driving tunes on this masterpiece. Now in my 50's, my mind often travels back more than forward. When I first heard this track and memories that accompany events wherein the needle remained in the groove and this track played on, I am somber, wiser and grateful. I hope you are having a superb day and this album will ease your mind!
Everyone needs a lullaby now and then.. first time I heard this, i think i cried.
November Rains ain't bad.
i wish i could cry real tears. i never do not even when someone dies.
@@jasonbarbush4991 hey brother, tears are just a chemical reaction dependent on your bodies ability to produce them. I havent cried a tear in 50 years. My emotions aren't muted by my bodies inability to produce tears, neither is yours. Lots of us non-tear producing people out there. Keep your love, sorrow, happiness real that's all that matters.
@Josina Mual , I'm familiar with your beliefs, but I don't subscribe to them. I'm a member of a messianic synagogue. When I mentioned crying, it wasn't from sorrow or confusion about my life circumstances, but simply from the sheer beauty of the music and the message.
