Who is watching in 2024 ?
io !
Those who remember when it was worth the effort??
Hello other mark fans
Always and all the way down the grave. Mark's the best! ❤
Me! Hélio!
To all the people that are here intentionally....U have amazing taste...and to all who are here by accident,you are very lucky.
Just saw him at red rocks! Unfathomable
@Ricardo Herrera Carbajal he certainly is
@@bobweir1713 you lucky man
It was about a 12.5 hour drive for us! it was MORE than worth it.
I pop by once a week just for my fix. Incredible performance. Seen Mark live this year and it was a dream come true.
Mark Knopfler is my drug of choice. Just listening to him is medicine. I always feel good after listening to him. He is quite the man.
So true! I always describe listening to him as taking a warm bath after a very long and hard day. Love it!
medicine, yeah - drug, well, in the face of the negative connotations with it: no
@@lorenzorenzmann6631 not real drugs, however music is like a drug. It helps us get relaxed or just helps us enjoy life.
It's a cycle but one of my few vices !
@@lisasaputo9177 I understand what you're saying :-)
He is one of those people that understand that notes are only as important as the silences between them.
I have always said his genius is in what he doesn't play; kinda; God love this man.
Anes, true.
@@williamspain8135 , truth.
This is accurate my friend. He played the silence too well.
Well said. Cheers.
I'm only 14 years old, but Mark Knopfler is one of my favourite artists.
Welcome to our planet or our Universe, Dear Elia Bolzanello.
you have great taste :)
Your now 16 and I sure hope you have grown to love Mark and his music even more cause I sure did when I was 16,Best wishes on your journey through Life and may the sun always shine on you my friend 🇮🇪
PERFECT! ❤
@@jamesgreene4811 Thanks very much 🫶🏻
What's wrong with me? When immersed in Mark and his incredibly talented musicians on YT my eyes usually well up and sometimes tears roll down my cheeks. If family are not around (like now) I weep when the music stops. But when listening to the same orchestrations on Spotify, I somehow manage to keep it together and feel joy. No other artist does this for me. Is it just emotional overload from feeling like I am in the audience?
Damn I thought it was just me
ive admired many guitarists through my 60 years but mister knopfler is definitely the most influential and watchable
Living in remote place , picking olives. Only entertainment was Greek radio. I fell in love with this song. Thanks for your company when I was so lonely
Your songs area drug that I inject whenever I see the Icon of CZcams App. I am 23 but I don't know if this generation is going to realise that noisy songs and too much autotune won't survive as this type of songs that will surely last forever. I am glad I grew up in a family that used to play Sultan of swings and So far away... Mark Knopfler, you have stamped your mark in this world forever. Thanks for everything.
I'm 16 and i discovered mk and dire straits thanks to my dad who's a day 1 fan. His music is truly amazing
Im 19 same story :)
Hes like a fine wine, mellowing and maturing with age. Hits just the right notes and just the right amount, never overdoes it. Singing in his now unique way, just enough. He could go on like this forever. Hopefully will!
u r bloody right,bro.
Mark is a fantastic guitar player and its really nice to listen to him playing and singing. The best to Mark.
Greetings from sweden on the 22nd of April 2023. /JB
I made almost the same comment elsewhere here, only you put it a lot better!
Simplismente maravilhoso, e que voz linda é um calmante e ele é um colirio para os meus olhos.
Es verdad...el Sr. Mark Knopfler es como el buen vino...que adquiere más excelencia y maduración con el tiempo...Gracias Mark, tu música, tu decir, hace bien... Desde Argentina te saludo.
With the percussion I can hear the waves slapping against the ship’s hull as it plows through the sea on its way to America. Everything about this performance is perfect to me.
Yes, perfection. Except for the Woo Hoo from someone in the audience.
Then I'll go on the trailer and Lis.ok

Great comment, nailed it!
I can, too.
Where the talent exceeds the limit, there is Knopfler.
When you're very young and your favorite guitarist comes to be Mark Knopfler in DIre Straits (Alchemy), and years later you hear this comforting song, "Sailing to Philadelphia", and ten years later you read Thomas Pynchon's Mason & Dixon, and you return to "Sailing to Philadelphia" some years later and realize he's writing about that book. Oh, shoot, @MarkKnopfler has a big brain.
Mark and the crying Fender..what a genius...the best composer of all time....
Thank you GOD for giving us such a musical soul
It was my fate from birth to make my mark upon this earth. I was a civil construction engineer and Mark made me realize that I did just that.
Mark is a rare gem born on this planet. Bless him.
♥️🎶👍his guitar playing melts my heart …add his voice and I’m a huge puddle.
😂😂😂😂😂 puddles hahaha
song still makes me misty eyed. god bless you mister knopfler.
What a fantastic songwriter…the morning tide has raised the capes of Delaware..come up and feel the sun.. a new morning has begun..
Thank you, Mark, you were part of my childhood and adolescence and now you're part of my adult life! With all your classics and also beautiful songs from your solo career, all the lyrics and melodies touch my heart! I'm going to take you as my favorite composer to the end of my life!
that's right, there's nothing more to add
Tenho 56 anos , ouço Mark desde os meus 17 anos . Hoje meu filho com 24 anos tem no Mark sua inspiração músical . Meu sonho na vida é um dia poder levar meu filho a um show do Mark. Minha eterna gratidão ao Mark por tudo de maravilhoso que ele tem nos proporcionado com suas composições .
your post touched my heart as I feel 1000% the same about this genius
There's nothing more to say! All the best! Moscow Russia

Mark, you are oone of God's greatest gifts. I appreciate you man!
Probably my favorite song when I'm in a philosophical mood.
yes
I'm a durham lad and i could sit and watch Mark noodling about on an acoustic all day. Superb
I've loved Mark's work for 40 years now and I believe I'll love it even more when I keep getting older.
God.....what a beautiful song this is...its silence conquers my heart..Thank you Mark. You're just amazing..
Truly great. The most underrated musical genius of all time
The strings of your guitar are whispers and your voice is sweet as honey. What a song, what an artist!
He’s a genius! Is this your favorite song?
Can’t agree more. I haven’t stop listening to a Mark since I discovered it three days ago… he’s amazing ❤
Beautiful beautiful beautiful!!!
Love the style of brushes that the drummer used in this song I would class this as the best record that Mark ever wrote and performed with James Taylor the song is a master class on story telling, the song is based on a true story of two Englishmen Sailing To Philadelphia.
The two men have long been forgotten, They do not have graves to actually tell future generations where they are buried.
Really; this is how history can and should be taught, as well as the poetry of a beautiful land, and a beautiful man...peace
Can you imagine a classroom full of say, eight year olds, reading the Founding Papers, and just laying back and listening. That would not be a boring class, and a room full of us doesn't hurt, either.
I grew up in WV, within a couple miles of the MDL where it turns south along the Ohio River. I probably crossed over this point a thousand times rarely thinking about the significance of it. This song sets me straight.
MARK KNOPLER THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR BLESSING OUR SOULS WITH YOUR BEAUTIFUL MELODIES I HAVE LISTENED TO YOU SINCE MY YOUTH IN LIMA PERU NOW IN 2022 I LIVE IN SÃO PAULO BRAZIL GOD BLESS YOU WITH GREAT HEALTH AND LONG LIFE.
His tone - his words - his musical excellence.
Such a great great talent.
Love you Mark
I'm what's called a numismatist. I also deal in rare coins so I'm known as a coin dealer. But anyone with a few bucks can "deal" in coins but those of us who actually study history and use these little spheres of knowledge to do so are called numismatists and we are considered a notch above from a standpoint of knowledge certainly about rare coinage.
Mark Knopfler is a great guitarist and musician. In my opinion he is certainly Hendrix material but musically, lyrically, Mark is even on a different level than Hendrix or Clapton or even some of the classical guitarists, he's deeper, and he understands history and it's importance to study, like Telegraph Road, the Mason Dixon line etc. Mark if a "coin dealer" would be a Numismatist. and I would be honored to call him a fellow numismatist or coin weanie ha! Thank you Mark, your music will forever be in my soul, would just like to share a meal with you sometimes
I’m old now have loved all of Marks music. My dream would be to see him perform in person
It's a History lesson set the music🎶
Mark Knopfler is a great Songwriter
Sending Love and Best wishes from🇩🇪 Deutschland !!! ❤
Mark's and Dire Straits will always be the best music to exist to me. I love how Guy Fletcher is on the piano.
"How nice to see you all. How are you?" What an amazing man, so kind.
It’s addicting listening to him, always leaves one in a state of awe. Is this your favorite song?
Be careful of this click bait folks.
I worked with Mark at the Yorkshire Post when he first had a band.
A thoroughly nice guy.
That’s awesome!
You really don't need Audible. Just listen to Mark Knopfler. He tells a story with deftness, capturing from the opening and holding you to the last page. Every song tells a tale, be it history, love, longing or loneliness. An artist of rare ability and we are grateful. Thank you so much, sir.
Mark músico inigualable! ...hermosa voz y letras...y rodeado de músicos de primer nivel! Felicitaciones! Admirado siempre! Desde Bs.Aires Argentina, un Abrazo!
Da 40 anni ti ascolto. La tua chitarra ha ritmato i periodi più belli della mia vita. Non c'è giorno che non ti ascolti. Buona vita Mark
Mark is always measering up our great feelings with his hands in guitar
Knopfler is always leaving his marks upon our heart with his songs
Thank God the stars guided us here to listen this fabulous master piece: Mark-Knopfler line.
Best regards from a Brazilian surveyor. ❤🌎
One of my favorite songs. It's sad that so many people these days have no appreciation for the lives that built the USA and the freedom it offers to all. My heart weeps for Philadelphia and what it has become.
MK you are simply the best you bring lot Joy and Happiness in your music this is really touch my soul I really like your voice you are so amazing with all your songs thank you so much to share this music with us keep care off yourself Thank you MK🎸🎸❤💜💜💋💋 I feel always happy when I hear you singing thank you to bring joy in my life❤❤❤
🧑🦰🧔👨👨🦰👦🧔♂️🧒👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Always loved this song...and in 2020 even more grateful for it transporting me to a different place
Crazy year 2020, wasn't it? Continue to move forward in life though. Like MK says: "another day will make it clear, why your star should guide us here."
The legend guitar player & voice...Could ride hours & hours by listening him and Dire Straights..😎
Mark's passion during this most beautiful performance brings a tear to my eye. God has truly blessed us with this musician.
Amen 🙏
I give credit to the man and all his hard work to put up flawless performances like this ❤
Thats pure will and dedication. Abundance of talent too.
But all his own doing!
Dont discredit the man.
I was turned onto Mark by Princess Di when she responded “dire straits” when asked who her favorite band was. Thanks Di !
thank you for that story!
He is the Local Hero and we are fools to make war on our brother's in arms. Piper to the end
This arrangement is gorgeous...the drumbeats are the waves crashing on the ship's hull as it sails...the flute is the seabirds flying overhead.
Who does watching It now 2021 ? ... Beautiful song ... !
In my opinion this is the greatest song ever written, and this performance of it is truly breath taking, The look in marks eyes gets me everytime , Feel honoured
❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤
I can't hardly explain what this man's music does to me, I'm crying from a sadness and a joy that absolutely overflows from Mr. K
Fake fake fake
Same here, crobilly. Same here.
I’ve read so many of these complimentary reviews, sad thy all resonate my feelings
about this iconic talent.
His feel for rhythm is sweet, if not genius
I love fully mature artists.
This world sorely needs mature artists
The great Mister Knopfler often makes me cry with his creative genius mastery. Genius.
story telling through song.....how lucky we are to be here....a lost art....thank you Mark and Company......
Rare emotions in complete disclosure
@@susanrichard1653 that, Susan, is a great line from a song you should write......" rare emotions in complete disclosure "..cool....
Danke Mr. Mark Knopfler! Sie sind ein Mega Geschenk! Sie berühren meine Seele sehr Tief!!! Greatings from Germany Rheinland Pfalz
Mes nuits d’insomnies, je les passe avec Mark, il adoucit mes peines, il me met en joie, cet homme est un génie et je l’aime tant
Bien d'accord avec toi!
J’adhere a ton propos. Je ne me lasse pas de Ce génie tranquille et humble depuis 1978…
Luckily we can listen to best of best these days at the ouch of the button, It was different back then. Thanks
mark is a poet,singer, guitarist. he is the best artist on the earth
I'm 20 years old and i've been a fan of Mark for as long as i can remember. Such pure and raw talent and emotion.
It's a special thing being able to share this music with my grandparents who listened to it when it was new and still love it to this day. It brings people together, this is what music should be.
i just love it. play it over and over
You’re one talented man !!! Your music helped me after I woke up from a coma after having knee surgery. Too much anesthesia I think. It was the only music that would help me relax enough to sleep. After waking I was up three days n nights in the hospital so I played brothers in arms mostly ,quite a lot. Thank you 😊
'It was my fate from birth to make my mark upon this earth"You sure did Thank You!!!🎸🎶💃❤️
He most certainly did.
I love the fact that you can see tons of different languages in the comments section.
Makes me think how music is universal and touches different people from different cultures. Mark, you're the best! 😋
I don’t know what it is but Mark hits a frequency I just can’t get enough of.
This evening with Mark Knopfler at the Atrium is for me one of the best stage performances full of finesse with a lot of soul
A lifelong fan...
In this version it is the
Very best
Mark Knopfler, para sempre!
Uma canção com harmonia e melodia inefável. Parabéns Mark! 👏👏👏 Você é o melhor! Nada se pode comparar. Ual!!!

Dziękuję .....to bardzo sentymentalne wykonanie-kiedyś byłam w Philadelphii i bardzo miło wspominam pobyt.
Pozdrawiam z Polski.

Thank you Macca on ABC radio for playing this great classic so we all can reminese❤.
Ich bin 71. Noch immer das Beste ❤️❤️❤️
Very much enjoyed this. A top band in all parts with the incomparable Mr Knopfler. I especially noticed the great drumming, the constant brush on the snare, underpinning the performance. Lovely! 🌟🎶👍
Mark grande amore musicale. Hai accompagnato tutta la mia vita con la tua chitarra 🎸 mi ha sostenuto nei momenti più bui consentendomi di potrmi rialzare. Grazie con te fino alla fine ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Such an uplifting song one of my favourites
The best there is. Insanely good
Mark, tu me ayudas con tu musica a olvidarme de la pandemia, cada dia te escucho, Gracias Genio!, y recuerdo la unica vez que pude verte en Vivo, en The Royal Albert Hall, durante tres dias en 2010.
Desde Buenos Aires, Cristina.
Awesome. I listen to this song once a week. Reminds me that we all make our mark and matter.
Only once?
Well said
It doesn’t get better than this. Few songs bring me to tears.
I didn't discover this man until I was 40, but he and Dire Straits just get better and better.
A man with matured music, fantastic voice and God given guitar skills. God bless.
A sublime musician that sings with no effort and makes his guitar talk. have been listening to him since Dire Straits 1st Album and I hope he never stops singing...
mark bring us to another world .. your music will be for always mark i m 18 years old
Mark Knopfler my genius of guitar , unforgeteble voice and mood . Keep going Mark and im waiting for more , You are the best .

So true Charlotte. Every note this man plays touches the deepest reach of my soul. Especially a lovely, slow song like this one.
Listening to you for 41 years. Thanks Brother. 😭😊❤️💪👍
Hey Mr Knopfler, I am not sleepy and I have no place for going to.
Hey Mr Knopfler, in my jingle jangle morning I'll come following you.
Hey mister Tambourine man!
A million times and I can’t get enough of this piece! My legend thank you!
First day of 2021, and I thought I would sail to Philadelphia. Safe travels everyone, Happy New Year.
My brother Paddy introduced me to Mark Knofflers incredible music.
I will be forever grateful.
Mark is a truly wonderful writer, singer and musician.
A real joy to listen to.
Absolutely! He always leaves one in a state of awe. Is this your favorite song?
This is the most beautiful song I’ve heard in a while - I guess because I was born in Mississippi I just love thd history. You are a genius sir!
With a middle name of Dixon as a boy I was embarrassed, My family come from Cockfield and listening to this I feel so proud
i love this song, his voice is so deep and relaxing. I wish I could sail to philadelphia too, seeing it first time on the boat on the road to a new life must be just crazy. Can imagine those Irish guys back on the days. Sad and magestic.
Mason and Dixon were English.
@@patrickkelly7085if they’d listened to the lyrics they’d know!
This is such a beautiful and soulful performance by the whole band. Specially towards the end. We can even hear Mark moaning quite a few times. :D
Should definitely be released on Apple Music and other platforms.
Sublime masterpiece. Lyrics and music show all the poetry of an immense songwriter. Thank you Mark.
That is the most Beautiful song I have Heard in a Long Time, I am loving his Music thank you my friend for turning me on too his music
Tears goosebumps happiness a true essence of creativity
