Brothers in Arms is literally one of the greatest compositions ever made in history.

I cannot get enough of this man...I love just listening to him sing, talk play whatever...I can watch these over and over and still love every minute of them...

Beg to differ Mark - the album did so well because all the songs are superb!

6:52 therein lies the genius, when the left hand isn't even linked to the mastery of the behind the scenes right hand, just ticking away underneath. And yet they are absolutely linked. It's just that one is mastered so well it can operate separately or so differently from the other. Often imitated, never mastered like this...Knopfler just doing his thing so naturally. PURE MAGIC!!!

There may be an artist more generous and humble about his work than Mark but I've not run into him or her.

You are the greatest I like your style of music Sir MK you are the best guitar player, songwriter de beste singer Sir MK . You always gonna be my hero. Stay Safe💯💯🎸💜🎸💋🎸❤❤❤ I listen to this song also Day by Day

I can perfectly understand what you have said about all the globe trotting gigs sapping you out. But there is something about Dire Straits that is flabbergasting. The first Dire Straits album came out in 1978 and Brothers in Arms happened in 1985. That's just 7 years which is like switching from a car to a rocket. It is as good as impossible to touch that pinnacle of success in such a short time. The reunion of Dire Straits which fans (including myself) are clamoring about is not just about listening to the erstwhile Dire Straits tracks. I was just a year and a half old when the first Dire Straits album came out and I grew up in a sleepy little place with no exposure to English songs. I heard Dire Straits songs for the first time in 1992 and since then I have been stuck in a sort of time loop. Dire Straits has a distinct sound and us fans want to hear more of that sound in the form of new songs. It is that sound we are yearning for. There is almost a Dire Straits song for every mood swing I have been through in my growing up years. Only you and the Almighty knows about all the crazy things you do with the guitars but it feels like every chord is speaking to me.

Back in June 1978,I had just graduated from high school, had my own apt. ,and after I hooked up my stereo, the 1st song I heard was Sultans of Swing, and that was that.♥️

I can listen his music on and on.....with the same pleasure always !

Can we just take a moment to apreciate the wondrous ways in which great artists like these forever link us with their music. I always loved Dire Straits, but it seems like when you get older and the pace or stlye of music gets too fast or even foreign/fake you go back to your roots so to speak. I have been known to cry at Dire Straits songs, actually far less so at Brothers in Arms, actually. The songs of the Alchemy Tour in particular blow me away every single time. I know there was Queen and others, but these guys were something so rare and special an unbeknownst to them gave me (us) something unforgettable.

Mark Knopfler has said that he is very aware that his music has been an overture for the lives of a lot of people. He's certainly correct in my case. I will never forget the day I walked out of Addenbrooks hospital in Cambridge (1986) having just been told that my mum was going to die and nothing could be done to save her. She was 59. I was an emotional mess but I had to go to work, I had a night shift as a London fireman to do and I couldn't let my mates down. I got into my car, switched on my "stereo" (remember them?) and the first thing I heard was "Brothers In Arms". It broke me and fixed me all at once. I than God for people like Mark Knopfler because for sure they are his gift to us.

You Are pure gold Mark 🎸🎶❤️

Money For Nothing may be the cleverest most memorable guitar riff ever ...

You are the best of the best in the universe. Best whises from MEXICO.

You are the best...I love your music !

I don't know if you will be seeing this comment of mine @Mark but you are the #1 person I want to meet before I die.I can't be more honest than this.

Gods I hope before I die I get to hear an album of Mark and Gilmour working out some lovely guitar music on the Astoria. Just imagine the beauty of that pair.

Linda trajetória de sucesso🎸,visto q markknopfler tem muitos compromissos musicais,filmes...sem contar com sua numerosa família. Mas apesar de nem saber de minha existência,eu continuo na torcida pela vinda dele ao Brasil. Aproveito o comentário para desejar um Feliz Ano Novo.Amo Mark knopfler 💖🇧🇷

One more great documentary. Good tips on how to play the guitar too :)

Something about "Brothers in Arms" reminds me of "The Partisan" (made famous by Leonard Cohen) .... is that just my imagination working overtime ? Hey, love your music !

I guess , I was the guy in the Appliance Store , @Mark, I guess you owe me some big buck...LOL LOL ... P.s: You're a Genius, a Legend - Much love from Luanda - Angola

Mark - I only hope you can create more great music when it happens on your own terms . It has to feel right . This is art . It's not about a deadline . It's finished when and if you say so .

I was one of those wanting to witness the live experience, Woburn Abbey 92 , On Every Street album tour
