when he says "juliet, when we made love you used to cry. you said 'I love you like the stars above, i'm gonna love you till i die' " makes my heart break. mostly from the tone of his voice, and party because of the lyrics.
This sounds like it's in between The Killers version and Edwin McCain's version, but I still like (in order) 1) The Killers 2) Edwin McCain 3) Matt Nathanson and lastly Dire Straits
i think that whatever you first encounter tends to be what you like best in any category - think about when they make books into movies. that said, i encountered the indigo girls version of this song first and it's still the most amazing to me. interestingly, i saw matt nathanson open for the indigo girls last week. great show....
Yeah I heard this before the original, without even being aware that this wasn't the original. I like it much more...as angelsdleadyou said its much more heart wrenching, made to make you cry rather than laugh...I'm also very partial to matt nathanson...
Man, I can NEVER get enough of Matt Nathanson!!! I could listen to him till I die! lol, very good writer! Thanks for sharing the vid, it's awesome! If you have time check out another fav of mine, they have a brand spankin new vid, just search for "Can't Hate You + Brandon Paris Band" They're pop/rock/reggae, and I love 'em!
i like this cover a little bit better than the original. I feel like its more heart wrenching, and the original is more lighthearted, granted i dont understatnd the context of the original since i wasnt around...

I'm a fan of the Dire Straits' original, although as a Killers-obsessed fan I prefer their version, but oh my GOOOODNESS Matt did such a good job!

It's not supposed to be Knopfler this is Edwin McCain's arrangement. But your right, nobody can do Knopfler but Knopler.

I still prefer Steve Knightley's version, but this is much better than The Killers version in my opinion.
