Mark Knopfler has such a huge catalog. 6 Dire Straits albums, The Notting Hillbillies, Neck and Neck with Chet Atkins, 9 or 10 solo albums, 8 or 9 movie soundtracks, All The Roadrunning with Emmylou Harris, guitar and production on Bob Dylan's Slow Train and Infidels albums.......this isn't just a rabbit hole it's an entire warren. Enjoy, I have since he started sharing with us all.
The video for this song is emotional, but if you want to really enjoy this song and the virtuosity of this band, you must react to this song but in the live version of the On the Night concert. It is something insurmountable.
This song is written from the perspective of a dying soldier saying goodbye, it’s worth keeping in mind when you next listen. Romeo and Juliet is fantastic.
Mark wrote this after the Falklands war between Britain and Argentina, but it can, of course, be applied to any conflict. The video artwork, by the way, is called rotoscoping, where a drawing is made over a piece of film. A prime example is "Take On Me" by the Norwegian band a-ha.
Nice to see someone discovering Dire Straits and getting hooked! 🙂 If you liked their live performances, I suggest you check out "Calling Elvis" (live, 1993). I don't think "the King" has ever had a better tribute.
You may want to check these titles from Dire Straits: Private Investigations (On the night version), Tunnel of Love (alchemy version), Ride across the river (Sydney version), Romeo & Juliet (On the night version), Local Hero (on the night), Once upon a time in the west (alchemy)... (no specific order here - they are all worth it)
All of their songs are great, but if you want to enjoy listening to the best performance ever: Tunnel of love (live at Wembley Arena). It has everything you need.
Hi love your channel. This song Live from Dire Straits-Live "On The Night" 1993 is something to be seen. It's so much better. Also from this concert I really recommend Private Investigations and Calling Elvis. They are fantastic Live. Cheers from Australia 👍👍🎸🎸

"Tunnel of love" from Alchemy concert.
A beautiful hommage to Marks youth in Newcastle.
So emotional in the second part!
"Tunnel of love" from Wembley 1985 is better ua-cam.com/video/6rlk34NuIoI/v-deo.html

It's my favorite performance (by Dire Straits,) too.

The version from On The Night 1993 is just out of this world. Check it out.
Enjoy your reactions brother. Next Dire Straits must be Romeo and Juliet. Beautiful love song.

Héllo de France Bonsoir regarder le live de 1993 super 😊😊
-We can see a classic scene with this song, on the TV show "Miami Vice" in the 1980's, (in last scene of the episode: 'Out Where the Buses Don't Run')
Ah yes, the voice 😂
All of their songs are great, but if you want to enjoy listening to the best performance ever: Tunnel of love (live at Wembley Arena). It has everything you need.
Ahh you also in this rabbit hole, I wave to you once I pass you there 😊
This song was censored in the EEUU during the first gulf war. Knopfler talk about the Falkland war (UK vs Argentina, mid 80's)

You are such a sweetheart! Thank you so much!❤️❤️
Many parts of the Military have taken this song to be theirs.
You now need to watch the live version, Mandela 88, even if you don’t react to it.
React Anne Silla , i'm a crepp
I would urge anyone who is a Dire Straits fan to watch Guitar Stories with Mark Knopfler here on You Tube.
