    Sometimes I feel just such great covers of old songs keep the music alive.

    This deserves so much more views, you sound like mark! When you started singing i thought this was just a guitar cover

      Literally same here. I had to do a double take. Been a fan of Dire Straits since I was an toddler.

      Why not just to mark, no voice

      I admit I like his voice and performance but this recording is some hot garbage. I wish it were better quality.

    • @WhisperingWempe
      @WhisperingWempe Před měsícem

      Absolutely agree. Maybe asame voice
      But i stimulate singers ti "find their voice"
      For instance.
      Bob Dylan master of war
      Eddie vedder version
      Great stuff
      Eddie is a semi tone of, live acoustic
      Now you think I'm a critic; im actually a fan.
      Eddie does that in purpose actually, for more drama effect in the song.
      I couldn't even do that. Make itvdirty like that❤

    Heard this song a million times one of my “desert island” albums. Made me stop and realize that Knophler is a genius entwining his guitar style & vocals to create his music. The manner in which you play magnifies his talent. Great job !

    @RiptonFarm Před rokem +1

    You couldn’t have covered this better. Respect for the thousands of hours that you’ve spent perfecting your skills. You should start calling yourself Mike Knophler.

    That's so beautiful! My favourite Dire Straits song. Your technique is so clean and your sound is spot-on! I can feel every note. (I'm a similar age to MK and remember the places he sings about in the song as I'm from the North East originally). I hope you will have a great career in music Mike.

    The whole song is done perfectly, but the way you nailed that ending goes through marrow and bones. Great to see there’s great talent out there who’s not afraid of showing their true colors! Good job man! If you have some work of your own, do not hesitate to contact me. I’m running a music blog, called: Andy’s Muse Corner and I’m always happy to do reviews of your work, or do an interview with great artists as yourself.
