“ Dire Straits was the latest band or musician to make great music, it’s so pure and well played, i love them !!! “ George Harrison
Me too love them!!! Perfect mucisian .
Are you the George that "knows all the chords"?
I agree
This man is nothing but absolute pure genius.
Pure genius bro,spot on❤
Every time I listen to a live recording of a Dire Straits song I am reminded that they were one of the rare bands that were even better live than on a record. Truly wonderful!
So true
The greatest bands always sound better live and these guys are the greatest
So true. For real.
Not only that...he is playing his strat perfectly CLEAN!! No effects, no pick. Just hands and strings.
To anybody reading this, I pray that whatever is hurting you or whatever you are constantly stressing about gets better. May the dark thoughts, the overthinking, and the doubt exit your mind may clarity replace confusion. may peace and calmness fill your life.🙏
Thanks lot❤
Thank u so much I need it I'm going through depression. ❤😊
God bless you. Shalom
Thanks
❤
Who thought we would still loving this masterpiece in 2023. Absolutely brilliant and huge thanks to mark and the band
All of us
Of course, I am still listening to Dire Straits music which is classic until now!
Mark's guitar with chorus sounds like men at work!! I love it
great observation now you’ve pointed it out i hear it too
I listen to this to be near my spouse who recently passed on to the spirit world, he loved this song and Dire Straits
He looks like he's effortlessly and magically playing that guitar--true artist. Greatness!
So true
A Dire Straits reunion would be most welcome. Fantastic UK band.❤
One of the greatest bands of all time! Classic guitar riffs that instantly identify them! You guys are NOT so far away - can replay your fantastic gig over and over!😀😎👍
Anyone still listening to these amazing guys in 2023 is a legend 💯
Eu ousso é muito bom agente viaja no passado
Of course I do....😅
Treu
That would be me
2024 ;)
If ever feeling down listen to dire straits and your life will get 10x better
Hell Yeah brother. Sending love from Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia, Canada. Love the UK and all you cats.
True❤❤❤
Jack Sonni´s performance on this tour was bringin so much energy and joy to the band and the crowd, a really happy rocker, his smile, his backing vocals and his dances fits so perfectly with every song and of course his amazing light blue blazer
Totally agree. Rest in peace Jack Sonni. Thanks for the tunes.
perfect dancer. He was so wonderful. It's like a baby weasel having fun.
Big respect for the drummer X Trev Dec singer songwriter xx ❤
2023 estamos aqui.... Curtindo essa energia inigualável dessa música... Vamo que vamo...
Badass. You could listen to this go on for like 20 minutes and it wouldn't get old.
Decades ago when I had Limewire I had an 11 minute version of this song downloaded, and have never found it again.
Looking forward to this one! I’d love to see a full DVD / blu-ray finally released from the Brothers In Arms tour.
There is a DVD from this tour and has been out for a while. I have a copy!
@@edwardcarranza3697 presumably you mean the bootleg ones from the Wembley and final Australian shows? I have those too. There is no official release from the tour.
I think the same thing. On the description says "All rights reserved from ITV." Probaly it's a show that played only on TV's transmission at ITV.

Queen's live at the bowl was a live broadxast too, but they released it on dvd, cd and vinyl. So nothing is impossible
Sure, I know. But for some reason seems Dire Straits didn't made the same thing.
Dire Straits was one of the bands that live versions it's always better than music's studio versions, cause So Far Awy don't have a solo in the original record on studio, but in this live on wembley Mark plays one of the best improvised solos of his career.
Totally agree
His solo here is somehow simultaneously gentle and face-melting
But you can see how concentrate is MK to deliver that solo for perfect match with song. Genious.
This is one of the reasons that he are one of the best guitarrists of all time
Please put this 'song back in the charts ' it belongs 🎉
When he's talking, all I hear is asdfadfapoeurapojfde. When he's singing, I can clearly hear the words. Amazing!
😂😂😂
Dire Straits A Very Rare Band. 👍👏👏👏
As huge and old MK and DS fan I watch this video and after 38 years in my mind the question is always the same: why this incredible and historical concert never released? Why all the material from the BIA tour never realised in CD and DVD? I hope one day someone will decide to realise all the DS's live music possibly before the end of the world.
Ñ
Totally agree with you
00j
Nelson Mandela, Wembley 85, Australia 86, 3 concerts must be in dvd. Knopfler no interest in legacy band
@@joseandoain9418 There are also official records from the first DS era, Alchemy and On the Night tour never realised (and tv and radio shows with great audio/video quality). Fverybody knows that On the night deserved to be published in double, triple or quadruple cd/DVD with all the wonderful material officially recorded. It was the last tour!!!! I don't know why but as huge fan it's very sad and incomprehensible.
The little lick he plays at 3:55 is just brilliant.
such a great album that it was the first to sell a million copies in CDs
One of The greatest Rock band ,DS forever ❤
What a masterpiece of a song.
Music dont get any better than this !
In my humble opinion as a Dire Straits Fan, this is the band's best Live Show !!!!!!!!!!!!
❤️❤️😍😍🎸🎙️🎸🪕🎹🎹🥁🪘
Classic rock that rocks ....one of Dire Straits best tunes.
I’m here loving this song in 2024!
So do I!!! ❤❤❤
Dios Todopoderoso, ¿Cómo podría alguien no amar a Mark Knopfler y Dire Straits al ver y escuchar algo como esto..??
Llevo 40 años escuchándolos y sencillamente solo puedo decir: nunca me aburro. Jamás. Cada oportunidad es un viaje cósmico al placer y a las entrañas de la felicidad misma!!!
Sublime!!!
Согласна с каждым словом. Точнее не скажешь!
Wow! Take me back to the time/era! Best days/years, the 80's!
Going back to year's old memories with best music's...
Oh 😲 wow. This may be the best live version of this song. 👏 Bravo 🎉
This is fresh off presses. Thank you for the post. 😊
Australia is the definitive version of this song, for me
2024 and I'm on the slippery slope to 86 still listening❤🎉
I'm hearing once again from 1000 today here in Brazil
The band is having so much fun... It's great to see that!
I remember watching this on TV as a 13 year old (still have the recording on VHS) and love watching this gig to this day.
A fusion between rock and country rock music which fit perfectly with the finger picking style of Mark, a heavy country music influence guitar player. We will never hear these style of songs again as the audience is quite different and will not consume this style of music anymore. We now can enjoy a very special time in our history where quality of music mattered more than what anyone looked like.
Agree but MK does look great. He is what he is, no artificial "improvements"
Great to see and watch Terry Williams play Drums.. He had a great groove .. And realize just a few years before he was playing with Dave Edmunds, Nick Lowe and Billy Bremner in Rockpile ..Great Scoop by the Band.. Toe Tappin'..
Williams is one of the best! Check out live Sultans of Swing.
i am 69 years old. i had a stroke on 3/6/24. i am okay. i am now taking care of my 2 adopted daughters who are 6 and 4 years old.
Great performance by Jak Sonni and the band Dire Straits! I was 6 when this was performed, I was born in 1978! Thank you for posting and sharing this classic performance!
Thank you. Wonderful! A very memorable concert. See you Friday
You will always be the Sultans of Swing ❤

Isso sim é música! Tive o privilégio de ter vivido tudo isso. Anos 80, 90!
Well written composition and an absolute perfect performance from the beginning to the end! 😊🎉
I am also a huge DS/MK fan and have been since first hearing Sultans way back in 78. I saw the BIA tour at the Greek in LA during the summer of 85, what a phenomenal show! After the encore, their manager came out with a bottle of Champagne and announced that the band had the number one Song (Money for Nothing) the number one CD, BIA the number one music video (MFN), and the number one highest-grossing tour for the year. What a great memory that is!
Dire Straits fills my soul.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Clássico, eu amo Dire Straits 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Bar do índio em Bh só tocava esses clássicos, comida Boa, cerveja gelada, etc! Melhor época da minha vida.
Another masterpiece from the BIA tour. RIP Jack.
I recorded this from TV in 1986! It was an hour long! All the hits. John Illsley is one cool dude. Love the way he swans around onstage calm as. Mark’s heavy on the ol’ chorus effect here!!!
superb tour. your music has been in my life forever and I thank you
Dire Straits is pure genius! Genuinely good musicians. My go to
Now tell me, how can anyone better this brilliance?
Quando eu era pequeno, uns 6, 7 anos, lembro de ouvir e achar a música mais bela que já tinhas ouvido, hoje com 45 eu continuo tendo a certeza de quando era criança.
Simplesmente sensacional
I love these older songs they are great and make me smile. ❤😊😊❤
A melhor formação do Dire Straits, com Terry Williams na batera arrebentando a boca do balão.
Talent lasts forever 👊
Such a joy to watch. What a gift to mankind these lads and their music are
This song is so good that the neighbors threw a brick through my window so I could hear it better. © 🌹
Amo muito essa musica maravilhosa linda demais ❤❤
Lovely song
Musica sensacional!!! Banda perfeita !!! Não sou dessa época, mas isso sim que é música de verdade!!!
Bro. The look Mark gives his bro at 3:27? You just know when you and your friends are just nailing it. Best buds forever. Gotta love friendships, especially those based on building each other up.
Um dos mais lindos tributos ao Rock!!!
DS music never fade😊
Если смотреть без звука, то 16 - летний Армен из Ростова может подумать, что это пел его дядя с папой, в далёком Советском Союзе. Шнобеля зачОтные, музыка - ОГОНЬ)

[Verse 1]
Here I am again in this mean old town
And you're so far away from me
And where are you when the sun go down?
You're so far away from me
[Chorus]
You're so far away from me
You're so far I just can't see
You're so far away from me
You're so far away from me, alright
[Verse 2]
I'm tired of being in love and being all alone
When you're so far away from me
I'm tired of making out on the telephone
Cause you're so far away from me
[Chorus]
You're so far away from me
You're so far I just can't see
You're so far away from me
You're so far away from me, alright
[Verse 3]
And I get so tired when I have to explain
When you're so far away from me
See, you've been in the sun, and I've been in the rain
And you're so far away from me
[Chorus]
You're so far away from me
You're so far I just can't see
You're so far away from me
You're so far away from me, take it down
[Outro]
You're so far away from me
(You're so far)
Oh, you're so far away from me
Yeah, you're so far away from me
So far away from me
(You're so far)
And you're so far away from me
So far away from me
(You're so far)
So far away from me
Oh, so far away from me
You're so far away from me
So far away from me
(You're so far)
So far away from me, yeah
So far away from me
(You're so far), right
(You're so far)
You're just so far away from me

Please release the COMPLETE WEMBLEY GIG! All fans trough the years we've been dreaming for a entire release of this wembley concert, with ride across the river, romeo and juliet, two young lovers, wild west end, etc. Please!!
Did they film the entire thing? Because none of the bootlegs have all the songs in them
@@dagbakka9995 Hi Dag, the full recording i think exists in any site. The only problem is that never seen the light. But anyway, i hope that someday the full recording appears.. as the same way as ALCHEMY. I thought Alchemy in any vault its complete, but we only know the "cutted" version that its oficially released.
Sorry for my bad english dude
@@enzociollaro668 It's ok, your english is good, I understand what you mean
Wembley, England 1985 great rendition great days.
Believe and trust him and he will answer all your prayers amen 😢
Such an amazing song, you guys rock ❤❤❤
Can't wait!!!❤
Masterpiece thanks for sharing ❤❤❤👍😀
Always loved this..always ❤️❤️❤️
