Lyrics:
a lovestruck romeo sings a streetsusss serenade
laying everybody low with a lovesong that he made
finds a convenient streetlight steps out of the shade
says something like you and me babe how about it?
juliet says hey it’s romeo you nearly gimme a heart attack
he’s underneath the window she’s singing hey la my boyfriend’s back
you shouldn’t come around here singing up at people like that
anyway what you gonna do about it?
juliet the dice were loaded from the start
and i bet and you exploded in my heart
and i forget i forget the movie song
when you gonna realise it was just that the time was wrong juliet?
come up on different streets they both were streets of shame
both dirty both mean yes and the dream was just the same
and i dreamed your dream for you and now your dream is real
how can you look at me as if i was just another one of your deals?
when you can fall for chains of silver you can fall for chains of gold
you can fall for pretty strangers and the promises they hold
you promised me everything you promised me thick and thin
now you just says oh romeo yeah you know i used to have a scene with him
juliet when we made love you used to cry
you said i love you like the stars above i’ll love you till i die
there’s a place for us you know the movie song
when you gonna realise it was just that the time was wrong juliet?
i can’t do the talk like they talk on tv
and i can’t do a love song like the way it’s meant to be
i can’t do everything but i’d do anything for you
i can’t do anything except be in love with you
and all i do is miss you and the way we used to be
all i do is keep the beat and bad company
all i do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme
julie i’d do the stars with you any time
juliet when we made love you used to cry
you said i love you like the stars above i’ll love you till i die
and there’s a place for us you know the movie song
when you gonna realise it was just that the time was wrong juliet?
a lovestruck romeo sings a streetsuss serenade
laying everybody low with a lovesong that he made
finds a convenient streetlight steps out of the shade
says something like you and me babe how about it?
#DireStraits # RomeoAndJuliet #MakingMovies - Hudba
Sadly I've only two beers left tonight, I wish I had an endless supply so I could continue my aural enjoyment . Keep safe, enjoy life and love one another.
Oh, yeah, a bitch when ya run outta a beers, and still wanna watch a bunch of great old classics...😭🤯😵💫😵
Lyric’s to a song is a never ending beer/shot🥂
Always another day
I have 30 + beers , two bottles of Evan Williams Peach Bourbon ,and three packs of menthol cigarillos . Wish you were here to share with me . I'm gonna listen to The Pogues now .
It's a beautiful song, I have a long lost Juliet.
This is the perfect song about longing. I listened to it in the back of my dad's car when I was a kid, longing to grow up and understand and feel how song described. As a young man, it described how I longed for the women that I loved and lost. And now I watch it and miss the young man I was, and what it felt like to be young, to be in love, and have my heart broken. It's so bittersweet - beautiful and sad, makes me nostalgic and also connected to each period of my life. It feels so personal, yet when I read all the comments here, I realise I'm just one of many that feels that way.
LNP China as a young guy going through my first love loss. This song is so perfect
Right in the feels...
Even I feel the song....
love the way you put your words together
Petra Europe very well said. Word for word my thoughts😌
Such a beautiful song - a simple melody, interspersed with whimsical guitar licks,
like little flights of fancy. The music light but the subject heavy.
(I met my wife at 15 and had a weird thought that We’d end up together, but one of us was always in a relationship.
It wasn’t until 23 that we were both free at the same time, and we married at 26.💟☮️
Same hear. Listened to this as a kid with my girlfriend. Now at 46 listening to it going through our divorce..
This song holds more meaning for me than anyone could imagine. I was with my significant other for almost 30 years. We had separated, lived apart for a couple of years, still seeing each other almost everyday. By chance we ended up back together and it was so beautiful that we had a chance to fall in love all over again until after being 12 years in remission, he ended up with fatal brain cancer and was given not even 4 weeks to live. He graciously lived for over 5 more months and yet even being bed ridden and paralyzed on one side, my children and I were by his side. We all were blessed to have that time with him and he was so happy even considering the circumstances. He passed away and I was there for every moment including his last breath. There was a time long ago when he said to me... "You and me babe, how bout it? "... This song is so precious to me and I'll never forget those words. When this song appears in my feed, knowing I'm going to cry like a baby , I have no choice but to listen... Scott, you made my life complete. I miss you so much. Even though you've been gone for 2 and a half years already, it's fresh like it was yesterday. I'll forever hold our memories deep in my heart and remember your last breath you were still trying to say I love you even though you couldn't speak. I miss you so very much. Maybe one day we'll be together again. I'll forever be about you babe. Always and forever until we meet again my love... Thank you to whomever took the time to read this. Our love is forever and Romeo and juliet do truly exist. ♥️
❤
Thank you for sharing such an amazing and deeply touching part of your life. Even though your story had an emotional impact on me, , it also echos how much I am in love with my better half, best friend, lover and wife. I am thankful every day for her choosing to share her life with me. I hope everyone who reads your story and my little reply, can take a moment to appreciate that someone is out there for all of us. If you found that someone, take a moment each day to let them know how much you care about them. Use any of the 5 love languages (yes it works) to convey your love. 💓 It makes a difference to them and makes you a better version of yourself, which also feels fantastic. 🤩
Give it a try if you don't believe me and see what happens. 😉
❤❤❤
He loved you like the stars above ,he loved you 'til he died. God Bless x
Same here, we agreed to stay apart till she finds the rest in her mind. I respect that. Stay strong and all the love to you!!!!
40 years ago and it has never lost its magic. Genius.
Knofler X
huh well if u see said dire tell him im comin home
my bad Dyre or Sid or tyedye man he knows im stranded without him im nothin imcomplete broken barbie
"I can't do a love song, the way it's meant to be"
Well that was a lie
Lol
They did a damn fine job..
It's Not always easy to do a love song. But do something ! Keep trying
Did you miss a letter "f" in your last word...
Smartass
One of the most beautiful songs that will ever exist.
From a beautiful story.....!!!!
Yes ♥🎶
@@lunemagick2903 can only be beaten by two other of his songs, telegraph road and my favourite tunnel of love, give them a listen if you haven't already.
So beautiful
Agree. It's a pity the video is so awful.
If you don’t get goosebumps listening to this song then you are missing a soul
У Моей Наташки должны быть, а так только я в гавно попадаю))))
Не Мурашки, значит я Мужик)))
Ok,my daughter is officially missing a soul.
Oh piss off, dude! Like srsly.
Great song, stupid video.
I'm in my late 50's. I come to remember my real first love,we lived together for 6yrs. Separated,met yrs later, I was his last girlfriend 🥺 he passed from liver cancer. U never realise what we have & lost until it's way too late. See ya on the flip side Mick.😘
Love from Norway strong women ❤
The line "It was just that the time was wrong" gets me.
So many of us must know that feeling of completely falling for someone, but not being able to do anything about it.
Yes, a lot of people here say it's about a failed relationship, but to me it's about one that never got started. As in my case.
The dices were loaded on the start
Too relatable. Either the one we fall for are already in a relationship or they just don't love us the same we love them
I always and still do love the line'I cant do anything, but I would do anything for you" . Being in a bad relationship, it was my fantasy to find someone who actually cared enough about me to say that.
Or completely FAILING with someone, and not being able to do anything about it. You just have to make sure you're a better person for the next time.
One of the most gorgeous, sad, wistful songs about a failed relationship. EVER. Just perfect. I owe a lot of needed tears to this song.
Is that your interpretation too? I just had a breakup that I felt would be the one ... and the lyrics seem to point in that direction for me too. The most obvious part would be "just that the time was wrong" since she currently has so much in her life that she had no time for a relationship. The music video points in the direction of them moving on rather than getting back together though- what you think about the songs lyrics?
Me too, hope you've healed.
I like it and it's so ironic
Yes!
But at the same time it has beat that can pick you up
If you can fall for chains of silver you can fall for chains of gold. REMEMBER THIS.
The 80s: When music was at its peak...Long live the 80s...!
Mark Knopfler is criminally underrated as a songwriter. This and Brothers In Arms are two standout songs that should be preserved in the Library of Congress.
He's my go to guitar player...the best
👏👏👏👏
Your latest trick and why worry too
@@nariosixpence8082 the man's too strong !!!!
And, maybe, "Sultans Of Swing", "Expresso Love", "Private Investigations" and "Money For Nothing"...?
"All I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme " What a great line.
Thank you! I never understood that line. I thought it was about rain.
My favorite one too but I also like I'd do the stars with you anytime
All I do is kiss you through the bars of Orion.
Just said that to my mrs before I read your comment 👌👍
Ah shit, Im always singing Orion. He is singing about the stars the line before, so it made sense in my head. XD
3:19 “all I do is miss you and the way we used to be” so simple yet it’s when I cry harder
Juliet says, "Hey, it's Romeo, you nearly gave me a heart attack" 💯♾🎶💘Always
"Hey La - my Boyfriend's back" :o)
Hey did yall hear, Shakspeare is writing a play based on this song!!!
Yeah
Finally something new for once,

@@brendandoocey7956
What's does K Mean?
@@mikkywhalan it'd slang for Ketamine, a recreational drug that's pretty fun. They must have been on some when they posted that
“Shall I compare thee to a summers day?” replaced by “you and me babe how about it?” 😂
It's been exactly 39 years since this was released, Still one of the best songs ever!
It will be 40 in October... unbelievable.
39 years ago?? Gawd... that makes me feel old 😊 Still, I do love this song... both lyric and score.. they combine to make something so loaded with a sense of longing...
Exactly why I'm listening to it now.
one of the saddest, that's for sure
1st video I ever saw
i’m 17 and this song is just on another level compared to nowadays songs (and to older ones too), too good, too flipping good thank you dire straights for gifting us with this beautiful masterpiece that will forever be 100/100
You've got an old show
im 16 and i agree
Uma ótima musica romântica de direstrait
You will never know the magic of that era. We were bombarded with hits songs day after day by outstanding artists like this. So much in fact we got jaded and did not appreciate the time we were living in. When I go back and listen now the music we had, it is astonishing because nothing like that exists now. I am so grateful to have experienced that chunk of time that artists actually created beautiful music.
I'm 17 too and I totally agree
I grew up in Hungary, Central Europe, in the 90's that was post-communist, expecting a lot from America and itself at the end of the cold war. I grew up on this song blasting from my grandad's radio while I played football with my cousin in the yard, surrounded by the flowers my grandma planted. It was such a special time. We thought everything was possible and we only needed to reach for the sky. I'm living in the US now, but no feeling is as sweet as dreaming away in 90's Hungary, thinking that the world was my oyster.
Yes but dire straits are english
@@jenniferlaughlin47 Duuuuh.... I know. I'm reminiscing of the times I listened to Dire Straits in HU as a child. And now I live in the US for the moment. No correlation with DS beimg English or not :D
This line “Juliet, when we made love you used to cry
You said, "I love you like the stars above, I'll love you 'til I die." It gives me the chills every time I hear it, cuz it’s just so fking beautiful, represents how crazily in love you can be with someone.
The lyrics of this songs are just fucking beautiful!!
Yup and then it all turns to shit.... Been there so many times.
@@ozymandias7940 Yep. Going through the remnants of that now. This song kills me, but I love it. Kinda like love itself
@@julieknox1682 Hey, sorry to hear that. You're probably sick of hearing this, but it does get easier. Keep your chin up, soldier on, one day at a time. 🙂
I still feel the same x
Then it turns out she's a liar!
Early 80s, beautiful years!! Simply life, happy life, beautiful music, beautiful movies, no smartphone and internet... TRUE EMOTIONS!!! TRUE LIFE!!! Regards from Italy
You forgot about AIDS
🏴👏👍
So, please turn off CZcams Chanel and this perfect song. You don't need Enternet!
The secret isn't no smartphone or Internet. The secret is YOU WERE YOUNG.
@@squamish4244 The internet, despite its many helping ways, has detracted from the good stuff in life. Nothing now is appreciated as everything is availabel on tap...it encourages less creativity, more depression, poor attitudes, and general mental illness as evidenced by 95% of twitter. In the older days you were friends with people around you, you were limited in what you heard so would obsess over songs like this for montsh and years on vynl or cassette. I could go on...its certainly not just about being young.
When I was a kid, my father played this song in the car all the time. He died 5 years ago, it just makes me think of my childhood and life before it all got too complicated
Chin up chap!
me to rip dad
This band's early material deserves so much more love than it gets. It sounds very contemporary - it could easily be a song by The KIllers or any number of similar bands.
One of the few songs out there that can bring tears to my eyes every time I listen to it for the first time in a while.
Here for my Dad
R I P Roger
❤️❤️❤️
👍
🙌
me too RIP your Dad
Bless u ñ ur dad God rest n grace u both...Respectfully Ms.M
Who else thinks the line " I'll do the stars with you ,anytime yet " is just so beautiful , gee words are so powerful and some bands seem to get it right ,dire straights did xx
Werd
Some loves are never forgotten because of this song. It was just that the time was wrong : Oh Juliet.
Making Movies
The album
Is timeless.
Great Song
one of my favourite songs. But my god this is the most literal video ever. It's like the director literally interpreted every word of the song on a low budget.
Yes literal. I've never seen another video like it.
I agree love the song it’s older than me, I also remember my dad playing it when I was little. The video clip is a too literal though, it is such a good song a bit of mystery in the film clip would of made a whole lot better
Exactly my thoughts. Almost like Bollywood haha. What a song though.
I absolutely love this video actually
Yeah, I know. Pity. Imagine the vide they COULD have made!
Anyone Here Enjoyng Mark Knopfler Masterpieces during The Covid-2019 ?
The best guitar.
Regardless he couldn't write a love song as stated in the lyrics, this inversion keeps us up at nights.
This album brings back great memories, I didn’t really like the direction they took after this but yeah Making Movies was a great album
Every time I hear this song the world stops spinning and I feel such love, amazing perfection💕💕💕💕💕
Totally!
Great song makes you feel either great or depressed but that’s probably what it’s meant to do. Matt from Australia 🇦🇺
The perfect story of a long lost love, with the justification of failure being 'it was just that time was wrong'. There is a place for 'us', I truly hope.
I learned to play this when my wife passed away and it still breaks my heart listening to it but it is a great song perhaps the greatest love song ever x
The old saying… “it is better to have loved and lost…
I believe this is true. I believe that we can know love is real and everlasting because we have both received and given it.
I am sorry for that loss. I think that we disdain death so much because we know it does not belong.
To be born again, we must die.
When faced with the prospect, let us all walk, or run, to Love, Life, and Light, so that we may see each other again.
Just keep Safe whith love TONY SIMMONS i London north l last my mum and dad LAST year dad in April and in December 2 weeks b FOR xama 93 years old
It’s definitely up there for me. My favourite is Thank you- Zeppelin
I'm so sorry for your loss. Agreed, it's the greatest love song ever x
I actually refer to this as the greatest love song ever written, always. Sorry about your wife.
I’ve been walking wrong all these years
I am 48 now and I have loved this song all my life. A truly beautiful voice ❤❤❤
49 here and I feel the same way...I am sure we aint the only ones but this is me and my beautiful wifes song lol. 30 years married now
You can fall for chains of silver,
You can fall for chains of gold,
You can fall for pretty strangers,
And the promises they hold..............

There is always someone who types the lyrics, why do this, we all know this song mate.
@@marktaylor3809 shut up ya hotdog
lol i love yummy hotdogs with onions and tomato sauce mmmm.
'All I do is kiss you, through the bars of a rhyme' - one of my all-time favourite lyric lines
One of the greatest guitar bands ever
This song is so clever and beautiful, how on earth does the human mind devise something so incredibly wonderful?
I think the most wonderful thing is to think about that while listening to this songs . It's the situations that people face and try to deal with . I just can't live without music anymore
Its up there with Shelter from the Storm and Tangled Up in Blue by Bob Dylan for storytelling
@@knojohn8787 Nope, you are right. Music is fundamental to the existence for some of us, and with modern technology there is no reason why you shouldn't be enjoying it for hours every day. It turns a bus journey or commute into a pleasure. For postmen and similar jobs there is music all day, and for anyone whose jobs were once solitary and boring there is now a huge world of your favourite music and the opportunity to get into music you may have thought was not to your taste. With so much time to listen, we can try anything. For those of us who've been enjoying music for 60 or 70 years we are now so lucky that we don't have to turn on a hifi and select a record; instead we can simply pop on the headphones, select one of thousands of albums and away we go, and the quality of sound can be extraordinarily good, in some cases to match the best hi-fi systems available.
I really love your statement: 'I just can't live without music any more'. To people like us, life without music would be empty and colourless.
I have wondered that myself. These people are gifted, no question about it. There is somthing special in their brain that allows them to come up with the wonder which is these beautiful songs.
I have played guitar for 50 years, and all the time I have spent, I could never come up with something like this. They are very special, gifted people that allows something like this to happen.
Simply, through their personal experiences. Creative people tend to be more sensitive, so when love is lost, it affects them deeply.
One of my favourite songs for 40 years. Gets better and better. I miss Dire Straits
I'm 25 and it's been my favourite song since 19.
Ye
I love them too❤
❤❤❤😂😂🎉🎉
Yes
prettier women, better dancing, MUCH better music.... damn i wish i grew up in this era
I did, they were better times.
I wuz there n it wuz fkn awesome
Loved this song when a was 15 ma boyfriend did too he's dead now good memories ❤
I've always thought that the closing guitar solo's call and response notes starting at 4:53 were a depiction of the two star-crossed lovers and the wonders of their shared young love, but these hypnotizing notes and their echoes rather portray an entitled Juliet's slow, and unsympathetic stroll down the road of fame, and away from poor Romeo, forever...
released 43 years ago and still sounds amazing now as it did back then
There’s something slightly magical about the fade out on this song. I’m 44 years old, but whenever I watch this now, by the time the song is fading out I am right back to being that 12 year old boy in the mid-80’s, watching it with the lights off in my bedroom on my small portable television, playing from a beat up old VHS player clunking away a pirated copy I recorded from VH1, and with my old CB radio crackling away from under my bunk-bed.
It’s like a time-machine, yet timeless in itself.
I love reading memories like yours
R.I.P Music Video Director Lester Bookbinder (1929 - 2017)
I listened to this when I thought our marriage was failing and it strangely brought me peace. 20 years on (and still happily married) it still does!
W
Yeah, when you get to twenty years, the cracks start showing! I still hanging on now year 30 thanks to great music like this which holds me together when the pain gets too much wondering where the love went!
This song fucks me up every single time
This song is an emotional journey and the line " I can't do anything except be in love with you" gets me every time. ❤️
" I love you like the stars above, I'll love you till I die ," or, " what happened to thick or thin ?" Loss of love, broken vows, betrayal. It's all there.
My favorite song luv Dire Stairs n got to meet the band it was fucking awesome!!!!
Creepy stalker territory ❤
Its just raw honesty. Its the whole song condensed into a single line.
If you think it's "creeper stalker territory" you will never experience the beauty of true, and real love,therefore Your life will never be full, but empty.
I was broken hearted as a young man cos the girl I loved ditched me for another dude , this song made the pain hurt more . When I hear this song 35 years later , I still think of her.
😭😭
Same here
the same history in another place in the world (ushuaia argentina the weather ist rainy and windy like in scotland)
Im sorry my man
Same here brother, " just that the timing was wrong" I've not felt love for 40 years.
Flawless. The best pop love song of the past 40-plus years.
Agreed 💯
Mark Knopfler is the best of the best and this song is simple and special!
Love this song so much. This video on the other hand... WTF???
The silver chain, the tear....the 80s mixture of surreal & very literal. So weird!
After filming this video the director shouted “your move Spielberg”
Aa-Ron S. LOL
HAHAHAHA
😂😂😂😂😂
Lmaooo werd!¡ can u top that Steven?
One of the most beautiful songs ever! And if you disagree - What ya gonna do about it?!
Absofucknloutly
Oh fuck yeah.
I concur... second only to Nickelbacks- How You Remind Me.
Stood the test of time, mosey definitely....

I’m 13 and ever since I was a kid, I’ve loved the songs my dad played for me, he is playing this one now, appreciate your loved ones, they won’t be there forever, and we are lucky to have any at all 💗
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Very wise comment. Love your Dad he won't be there forever, though his love will be
Sono passati 40 anni e questa canzone dovrebbe essere dichiarata Patrimonio dell'umanità.. 🎉
Fantastica!!!! Anni 80 unici!!!! Abbiamo vissuto momenti indimenticabili..... Non ci servivano i telefonini di oggi per divertirci. L-"emozione di aspettare una telefonata al telefono fisso non aveva eguali!!!! TI AMO BETTY E TU AMI ME LO SO!!!!!!
That closing guitar solo at 4:50 is so damn melodic. Doesn’t hurt that the babe can really break it down too…
He makes a 🎸 😢
Why are the rest of dire straits members so underappreciated, the bass in Sultans of Swing, the keyboards in the song Brothers in arms, the drums in this song and tunnel of love are all brilliant.
Fun fact: many of bruce springsteen's E street band were playing on the tunnel of love album, including this song.
@@mrgilbe1 You mean the Making Movies Album?
@@stevestefanick9886 Yes he does, the keyboard player from the E street band, Roy Bittan, played on Romeo & Juliet and Tunnel of Love etc.
the drummer in sultans of swing (alchemy live) is the most amazing ive ever heard
because most people dont even want to analyse the components of the music, if it sounds good, thats enough. Roses smell nice no-one cares about the protein structure of the chemical compound that makes the smell. Getting in too deep in the analysis often obstructs your appreciation of it.
I’m 15 and it’s 12am on a Friday night, this song just plays in my head on repeat 24/7 and always will be
I was born in 1979, I remember my Dad playing these in the car. Marvellous ❤
“Can’t do anything except be in love with you”, masterpiece, nothing to add but said everything. Just beautiful 🤩
Shakespeare liked this song so much that he traveled back in time and wrote a story about it, mad respect
This song is the anthem of my school sweet heart break up and aftermath. Such sweet memories and regrets. I've lived a whole life after that... This song is like a time machine and all I will say is I still yearn for her. Just don't tell anyone
Yeah
Knopfler gets into your soul and rummages around.
My sister loved this song 😞. But couldn’t play it at her funeral she passed away at 27 with a heart attack ❤️❤️❤️
Rip ur sis
my condolences ❤️ your sister had beautiful taste in music
So sorry for your loss Janice . She knows you miss her 🙌🙌🙌🙌
We played it at my fathers funeral since it was his favourite song too. I’m sorry for your loss
I am really sorry for your loss
Two hours into 2022 and I’m crying at beauty and hope that this song brings.
✌🏻💜
The hope never die
I agree after decades , so riveting, and after 53 years apart I'm now with the first love of my life , you can't make this stuff up ❤️ love you til I die. .....
Mark's vocals are so gorgeous. So much emotion in this song.
Mejores tiempos de oro
@@jxchamb And the guitar solo at the end. Devastating.
One of the best rock bands of the modern era!
I was born in 1979 and my Dad was a huge Dire Straits fan.
Mark Knopfler will always be a legend in our house ❤
I was also born in 79 and my dad also was a huge Dire Straits fan. Listening to this music really brings back memories of my childhood.
After so many years, still absolutely the best love song ever....
" You said 'I love you like the stars above, I'll love you 'til I die' "
"I can't do everything but I'll do anything for you
I can't do anything except be in love with you" THIS... these words are what it means to love a woman with every ounce of your being. This isn't a song - it's a beautiful poem.
yep
Dire Straits were perfect in a perfect time.
wonderful song, horribly video to accompany it. Think slightly less literal, when the story is that vivid
Yes I agree with you
Ricky. If you’re still listening.....
How about it Babe?
Miss you everyday. Even now ❤️
Lucy
Absolute classic. 2019 anyone?
Shut up.
4-ever! Now quit asking :P
Still here after some years.
Just added to my list. Gets better every year.

My dad loved Dire Straits. Same birthday as Mr. Knopfler. Miss you dad 😢 every day ❤
We use to share our thoughts, influenced by discovering and listening to great songs like this.
Now, everyone shares thoughts influenced by what social media tells them to listen to.
Echo that!!💜
“If ever there was a tale of woe, it was of Juliet and her Romeo.” - Simon Skinner

"You never watched Bad Boys 2?!?!"
Given enough time, even regrets become beautiful...
Legend has it; those actors are still walking like that today.
Gotta do another vid--this is a nightmare.
Knopfler at his understated best. A true gem of a song. Magical !
This song is a wonderful piece of art, the lyrics are so powerful and mean so much, Mark is a master of melody and is a bloody genius on the guitar.
You forgot about the lyrics!!! He is a frikking godd!
For never was there a story of more woe. Than this of Juliet and her Romeo...
Thanks for sharing your genius with the world Mr. Knopfler. Your music will live on for thousands of years.
15 years later and this still gets me in the heart. I wish the time had not been wrong... 😭
You promised me everything, you promised me thick and thin. Now you just say "oh yeah Romeo, I used to have a scene with him".
This band will always give me good memories for my dad who passed.. I will always listen to these songs and remember you dad.. your were a one off.. love ❤️ you. Big man ❤❤❤
I regret losing the woman Iove. This song makes my heartache. Listen to it every night sighhh

I had a guy play this song as he was breaking up with me when I was 17 - little did I know he was sleeping with his best mates missus....I was heartbroken...ended up in hospital after a suicide attempt...My 46 year old self would like to go back in time and throat punch the waste of space x I love the song though x
Hunny KARMA will get his ass without a doubt.Just watch her go!!! Ms.M
Throat punch because two animals want to root? That's right I can tell my kind from a CZcams comment away, and you got issues sweetheart! Imagine actually careing about something so menial and boring as to try and do that over something that should have been so inconsequential.
This video is AI before AI! Great song!
hats off to the designers of this music video.
One time, just on a whim, I took my wife's hand (maybe it was before we were even married), and said, "You and me babe, how about it?"
This became, forever, my song for her.
She left the planet eleven years ago. (Childhood illness finally caught up with her.) I'm even happily re-married, to a childhood crush. But today, with my wife out of the house, I listened to his and had a good cry.
Happiness doesn't relieve pain. It just counterbalances it.
Beautifully put.
Oh. Sorry for your loss.
Sounds like you're a lucky man to have had two amazing women in your life from the 80's. This kinda sums up my own experience with a first love from the 80's too. To have loved and lost is both sweet and painful.
This made me tear up!!
stay strong
Great guitarist. Great songwriter. Great storyteller.
Oh the past, the look to the past more and more. My time was then, the greatest music, times and love. The future uncertain, outlook questionable. Lets turn this ride around and head back to everything that was great. Wish i could live the rest of my life in reverse. A much better outlook.
"The dice was loaded from the start... and I bet... then you exploded into my heart." That's some of the most romantic shit ever.
This song is the most beautiful expression about true love, which is eternal. 🌹
yes it is!
The song is actually about Mark Knopfler’s brief romance with Holly Vincent. During an interview about it, she said about Mark Knopler ‘I used to have a scene with him’. So that went into the song.
Wahnsinnsnummer ❤
this and tunnel of love .. standout
