Great Love song about the most Loved Lovers!  LOVE IT!

[RobRobertTheMusicMan]

This sounds like The Dire Straits version of a Bob Dylan song, and I know that It's a Dire Straits original. I'm just saying It sounds like a Bob Dylan song.

[DadaTitian]

[chillfmdude]

2 users that hates this song thers a shallow grave for u dumb ass

[1963shaun]

This song must be knocking on the door of 30yrs old and is as fresh as the day i heard it all thoughs years ago.

[MsDeepestmind]

Tjis song was the beginning of a greate story in my own life, an d a made a own song of this, it was the story for the love of my life, but Romeo recognized Julia.

Who I am, only a person which loves to sing songs.

[ArmoredFelix]

@MsDeepestmind And doesn't respect the language nor proofread their posts.So you are worthy only of disdain.

[TheAnnasamson]

its bars of orion

[MrTimmi1986]

beste gitarrist der welt

[raghuveer0509]

great song...great video... removes shitloads of misconceptions!!!

[tracy1105]

Such a good song but what a crappy video agree!

[Bunzypoo]

"When we made love you used to cry-said I love you like the stars above, I love you till I die. There's a place for us, Ya know the movie song? When ya gonna realize-it was just that the time was wrong------Juliet."

I had a boyfriend that would actually make me cry while having sex sometimes. It was like having an outer body experience! Amazing! One time the song came on and he listened to the lyrics and he just looked at me and was like WOW! I just smiled.

[citysue06]

classic song

[Tman4561]

the killers cover is better

[ooooronoooo]

The song and video is good. When you say something like that......You must be from the 80's.

[alternativomuse]

[MarcelloPecos]

...è sempre incantevole questa canzone.

[Swissvilla]

[ninpou23]

Thanks to my school I like this song xD

[benhemoth184]

@noseyas123 ok , with gay i meant not good , im sorry if i offended anyone ..

[TOFROUTO]

This video ruins the song for me... :( Great song though!

[Quilbo]

@TOFROUTO then close your eyes :)

[TOFROUTO]

@Quilbo: Right! :)

[benhemoth184]

gayest vid ever, but good song ^^

[HARRYCANE187]

shut up - du Hinterlader willst wohl Salami in Po wa. MAUL du Honk.

the vid is classic. and classic song is it ever.

buhhhhhhhhhh...

[benhemoth184]

wow,, you got experience with salami in yer behind?" damn  no need to get rude here

[boydegg]

Is this lyric correct:

"All I do is kiss you - through the bars of a rhyme"

[Haufos]

I think yes. ^^

[Lozzeii]

isn't it Rain? Lol... i've been singing rain this whole time :S

Btw, can i ask, who the heck is this man in the vid? Lol, i have an urge to search him on google :P

[boydegg]

@Lozzeii

I also read somewhere that it was 'bars of orion' ...

But bars of a rhyme makes sense to me ... if you think of a rhyme as a song. This song. The song he's singing.

[apepoopie53]

It's bars of a rhyme, as in the bars on a score and the bars on the neck of a guitar.

[apepoopie53]

And prison bars, separating Romeo from Juliet

[Lozzeii]

Yes i understand that but i also think.

Rain makes bars, while it falls, in striaght lines, they may be kissing in the rain, that sounds more romantic i believe haha :D

[Bunzypoo]

@boydegg "Through the bars of Orion". Like in the sky, silly;) I love it that you asked though because my husband sings the wrong words to songs all the time and it's so annoying. lol

[boydegg]

@Bunzypoo

Bars of a rhyme makes much more sense .... she's gone and all he has left to connect her is his song. I'll ask Mark Knopfler if I ever meet him.

[Bunzypoo]

@boydegg Actually you're right, it is bars of a rhyme. Thanks for puttin' me straight.;) Have a great day!

[boydegg]

@Bunzypoo How do you know? Did you find official lyrics somewhere? I've seen it debated a lot before, but I never knew for sure. Just that 'bars of a rhyme' sounded so much more poetic to me. Reaching out to a past he can't have - via a love song.

[cjsim2]

Great song..crappy Video...80's got to love the era

[bat7j]

What do you say? I love that video!

[Carola92Mi]

La canzone di quando ho conosciuto un uomo quasi perfetto

[ha11ett323]

classic song

[apepoopie53]

Please learn how to write. Amazing song!

[obiwan383]

@apepoopie53 Ineed, the drugs blowing idiot is probably jealous.

[FEDERICAMOS]

ADORO QUESTA CANZONE E ADORO TE ....

[FEDERICAMOS]

[pietrodibe1]

Io nn voglio dire il tuo cognome per galanteria ma io ti voglio per sempre con me

[FEDERICAMOS]

la nostra prima canzone........ che dire...... solo che sei la mia splendida vita!!!

[pietrodibe1]

Federica avresti il coraggio di dire al mondo intero che ti sei pazzamente innamorata di un uomo?

[KGBfbiSECUpolitia]

I heard anUNfounded gossip that Mark wasN't Gay (Not @the time anyway) but all other SADlove songs too, were written coZ of this ITALIAN (looking) Shy Lady he couldN't get, either coZ she was too-young/UNDERage, couldN't travel 2marry him inUK (not coZ she wasN't allowed to get a passport, leave that country) but didN't want 2 leave her family+a "DEEP-Purple" GUITARist/ROcker was SAFEr, Better 4her than Mark (cue purple car, etc). Her english grammar was poor like DS/Mark's in sum hits' Lyrics

[Bunzypoo]

@KGBfbiSECUpolitia Poor english grammar like yours? lol No Mark is not gay you dope! He's married to a lady.

[EddyRainbow]

where is the live Alchemy video to this version. It was great and now its gone. Get it back on guys its great

[KGBfbiSECUpolitia]

I doN't see how the streets could be "of SHAME", "dirty and mean". I bet it wasN't coz she might have had a boyfriend with the Red tie, RED& Black (+white) car. It might be that ROmeo was married ?

anyway never mind he was

allegedly a composer/MADE-a-LOVE-song himself, like Mark who was indeed married. Anyhow, both of them fall-about too much, too much tripping-over and falling not? failing

[MetalGuitarMayhem]

What were they thinking when they made this video??

[drewbeda1]

Without a doubt one of the best songs written. Love the girl's sexy dancing as she's making her exit at the end. People need to put this video in proper perspective. MTV wa nothing but an experiment at the time and these types of videos gave birth to what some of you enjoy today.

[raffymercury]

dire straits in my heart!!!

mark 4ever!

[KGBfbiSECUpolitia]

2:50 a pity ONLY TWO Men r LEFT watching the classic -ROmeo'n'Juliet-Movie when Girl in the MIDDLE(withRED hat)Leaves too. Or were they watching the joke/MESSy DS vid? It's an UPside-down, Rubbish Vid. Too much falling/failing? 0:33 Even the ppl listening 2ROmeo's song (nevermind him+Juliet) keep on falling. The Rubbish being thrown about..I hope it was McDonald's packaging NOTlove letterS.Too much: white, Black n RED with sum GREEN and Blue,pink+once deepPURPLE. NO orange,yellow/Cream?

[KGBfbiSECUpolitia]

2:14 myEx pen-pal from US, an OK detective has also just noticed another coincidence. The (bespoke?) car is Black and RED + White at the back. I missed this bit. It is shown QUICKly/in-a-hidden-way !?! I saw a lot of RED [and even (with) BlACK cars] but I never saw many/Any with White too. Were they common @the time '80s/'90s? It looks like sumone

/the-owner-from-whom DS's Vid director had rented it BRIEFly, put sum White removable paint/paper/sello-tape on it @the BACK BRIEFly,on purpose?

[ginoppetto]

Wonderfull song one of the best but an ridicolous video ......

[KGBfbiSECUpolitia]

I'm not worried ab the vid but why is ROmeo seen "gay"(in Pink)+a musician 2? the Brit older/STRANgEr boyfriend in a RED and BLACK car, theITalian looking ROmeo's in the RAIN. In Italy there's sunshine and RED Ferraris! like theCOMmunist-RED tie of the old man. The BAD COMpany ppl+ BLONDtemptress @ the end R in GREEN(shoes). ROmeo was poor? not UK/ITaly-"royal" like Juliet!?! but knew 2'serenade'? What Brit/STRAiNe promises? The music's OK but the vid's upside-down, NO man gets the brunetteGirl?

[garyeeyip]

any1 heard the killers cover of this... it's fantastic!

[PeeNoYaKo]

No one can beat the original thoughzzz

[simonmoves]

excellent song and excellent quality--vid this is the best condition ive seen of this vid--one of the best songs ever--
