The most beautiful version of this wonderful song! Not too fast, not too slow, and with much feeling in every word and chord. I always get goosebumps when Eric starts to play the final guitar solo! Epic!
Knopfler supporting Clapton/Clapton supporting Knopfler. The two greatest guitarists in the history of music bar NONE on one stage. Its the stuff dreams are made of
I'm still crying when I here Eric Clapton. I know it's stupid. It brings up so many old memories. In addition to Mark. Simply: Marl+Eric=God of Guitars
Sometimes i wish i was born 10 years earlyer so i was 18 and could have seen stuff like this. Unlucky me eh. But my children will grow still with songs like this played in our house.
I feel that way about Sinatra - Dean - the Rat Pack, most thankful for what I've had, the people, friends, music, and meeting him - my husband was managed by his people. I understand the Passion of the music / genres - that define us - who we are... Eric Clapton and so many great artists - were my daily feed in the 70's - (high school & college), the time passes so quickly, I'm thankful for UA-cam - opportunities to revisit the eras. :-) Peace! :
OMG never seen this version before. My two favourite guitar players, one of my favourite songs, and I'm lucky enough to have someone who this could be the wedding song for x
One of the all time great love songs. Patti Boyd should be in the Rock-n-Roll Hall of Fame as an inspiration. For this song Lalya and Something. I always thought she was very pretty but never understood the impact she had on George (rest his soul) and Eric. But, it was undeniable. Thanks Patti.
Here are 2 British men this Irish American girl has immense respect for - (their gifts/talent and the person each is).... My heart goes out to EC - I know he is suffering the loss of his friend - my sweet homie, Mr B.B. King. RIP PEACE to all -
even though erics' marriage didn't last so long, he was in love with her for the longest time - and we are the ones who benefit, as it is said that eric wrote some of his most beautiful songs/ballads due to this. AND... this particular version collaborating with dire straits.... Sensational!! the two different guitar styles of clapton & knopfler together is so nice. really enjoyed this track.
Totally same here, but I was only 14. This gig made me life-long fan of both of them. Especially MarK and the band. Actually Walk from same evening was the final hit that changed my whole understanding of music. Goosebumps from neck to bottomcheecks from first note to very last. I think I still have this original Finnish television live recording on vhs somewhere in my parent's home. It hardly works anymore but it's worth of gold.
You think the 90's were good, you should have been a teen in the 70's! These were the best times. We could get wild, ride with guys we never knew, walk home alone at night, smoke with folks we had never met and not worry about catching something or someone killing us. The music and everthing was the best from the 70's to the 90's.
I'm sixteen, and i MUST see an Eric's concert , he came to Brazil but it was far away from my town, hope i can make it to England someday and see him on a live show.
42 thumbs down? Hmmmmmmmm, that tells me 42 people have never fallen in luv. If/when they ever do? 'then' they will really understand this song. Thanks EC for keeping my dream alive
This is my favorite live performance of this song I -3 this song it reminds me of the boy I liked though he hurt me in the end :/ this song always brings him to mind plus he had blonde hair.
This is the best live version of Wonderful tonight
Agree! This is the one I was looking for!
Played for Dire Straits band!
Amazing!!
Absolutely! The best by far!
how did the stage not collapse under the weight of so much talent?!?!
npc ass comment
Knopfler & Clapton: This is champion League. This is more than music, it's at least 3 levels above it
Its "OP" as the kids say these days...
@@firewfire Nah - they'd just call them "Boomers" =.O

He (Mark Knopfler) also
played with him (EC) on a tribute album to J. J. Cale.
eric clapton + mark knopfler = legendary
You know you're good when you have Mark Knopfler playing rhythm guitar for you
Since it was actually a Dire Straits show and Eric was supporting
But in the end it's all the same! They are amazing!
Brilliant comment!!!
Actually Eric played rhythm guitar for Mark Knopfler in this show.
I,m 56 hrs old and have been at a fair few Wembley concerts but this stands out as one of the finest I attended...
I'm still crying when I here Eric Clapton. I know it's stupid. It brings up so many old memories. In addition to Mark. Simply: Marl+Eric=God of Guitars
Two legends on the stage... Playing such an wonderful song
When a great song can't get any better. Dire straits came along and did just that.
Listening to this song somany years after the Nelson Mandela concert makes me feel like I'm there again. Brilliant concert!
Sometimes i wish i was born 10 years earlyer so i was 18 and could have seen stuff like this.

I wish I was born 30 years ago :)
I already do 🙏 i'm 12 and this music, it makes me THE happiest i have ever been. 😩💗
And the Grandkids 👊💥🙌
something in the way, Layla, Old love, Wonderful Tonight have what in common, songs written for Patty Boyd
Jimmy Sackllah. And Patty answered it was George Harrison whom she loved.

The whole Dire Straits and Eric Clapton set was brillint at this concert worth checking out other songs on you tube
Gods on Earth
Clapton and Knopfler
are Legends forever
Here are 2 British men this Irish American girl has immense respect for - (their gifts/talent and the person each is)....
My heart goes out to EC - I know he is suffering the loss of his friend - my sweet homie, Mr B.B. King. RIP
PEACE to all -
Don't forget George. He invited him to play on "While My Guitar Gently Weeps".
The Best Ever Version Of This Beautiful Track. EC, MK and The DS Lads were magical at this Wonderful Gig.
The most beautiful love song ever produced. For a lovely lady Pattie Boyd.❤
I remember watching this version on TV at the time and crying my eyes out. It’s so beautiful.
The first time I saw EC. Since then I am addicted 🎸🎸🎸
stunning version, love this song played by legends, all of them
even though erics' marriage didn't last so long, he was in love with her for the longest time - and we are the ones who benefit, as it is said that eric wrote some of his most beautiful songs/ballads due to this. AND... this particular version collaborating with dire straits.... Sensational!! the two different guitar styles of clapton & knopfler together is so nice. really enjoyed this track.
Yeah. Clapton wrote the perfect love songs while he was in love with her.
Classic Rock at it's best it gives me goosebumps!

2 of the best guitar players in the world + wonderful tonight = a very wonderful night indeed
i saw this concert on tv when i was 16. i think, it was the first time i heard that song. and i still love it today ❤️.
Totally same here, but I was only 14. This gig made me life-long fan of both of them. Especially MarK and the band. Actually Walk from same evening was the final hit that changed my whole understanding of music.
Goosebumps from neck to bottomcheecks from first note to very last.
I think I still have this original Finnish television live recording on vhs somewhere in my parent's home. It hardly works anymore but it's worth of gold.
this actually brought a tear to my eye
Such a fantastic song played with two of the greatest guitar players to walk the earth backed up by a band that were just epic live
I was there...........................amazing, unforgettable experience. 2 Gods on stage together
This song is like an arrow straight to the heart

And that this song will become Our...
Ich Wünschen für allen eine schöne guten Abend zusammen und viel Spass mit Musik Songs💋💋💋💓💓💓👍👍👍
This is such a great song... it has me thinking about a girl I lost.
I dialled up 'Romeo And Juliet' with EC on solo guitar, and I did not see MK as pleased as EC seems here.. 🎶🌟👍
This man is a legend and so is mark love this song as been my all time favourite
Am I wrong or is Eric Clapton touched at the end?
Cant believe it took me this long to find this
Clapton and Knopfler playing on stage together is better than a bank vault full of gold!
