  • Does anyone know what the instrument is that looks like bagpipes but you don't blow into it????? I want to get one and learn how to play it. What an amazing sounding instrument. Have listened to the theme from the movie "Cal" for years and always wondered about this instrument.

  • @0000jodie They are pipes. Just Uilleann Pipes. They have a truly haunting sound.

  • @0000jodie The Uillean pipes is one of those instruments you can play for 20 yeras or more, and still not master it too perfection

  • soooo beautifull !!!

  • @ lore2222222  Well maybe you've never heard of Mark Knopfler by name. He was better known as lead Singer/Guitar in Supergroup DIRE STRAITS big in the late 70's & 80's. In 1988 he played with ERIC CLAPTON in the FREE MANDELA CONCERT @ Wembley Stadium: which was awesome! It was EC who was guest invited to play IN Dire Straits! They played a long version of 'Sultans of Swing' Including guitars & even a sax solo! It was classy stuff but Rock!

    This is ok but a bit too 'folk-ky'

  • Why the fuck no one knows about mark knopfler in my country?!?! I FUCKING HATE ANYONE who doesnt know about Mark Knopfler! HE deserves a bigger audience! Man, I am so pissed.

  • It's not JUST the music, Mark Knopfler has a pure heart. And it shines thru in everything he does. I've been a fan since the first time I heard skate away, and the more I know about him, the more I like him. Very few people in this world have the ability to let others look into their soul. It's like a sense of honesty. Thank you sir, for every note and lyric you have ever recorded. The world is a better place with you in it.

  • @bpcarman: well put, man!

    wonderful piece of music. this and the smooth transsition to "golden heart" at the end get me every time.

  • great performance

  • beautiful beyond belief the sound is so rich and when the guitar kicks in ...

  • ohhhhhh.. when the guitar sounds in

  • I love how MK doesn't take over with his guitar, but blends it in so well with the other musicians. He truly is an artist.

  • @dajesusblues I never thought of it but now that you said i see how right you are, he does, which makes him even a greater artist, excellent point!!

  • Amazing....thankyou Mr.Knopfler & all the wondrful muscians who played this so beautifully!

  • I hope this man will live forever, so he could continue to bring people together with his wonderful, emotional sound!

  • I'm not sure why, but thinking of my son,  this brings me to tears.

  • @aqx770 me too!!! I miss him so . . .

  • What a God given talent he has! Wow!

  • he is great , he is legend

  • he is great

  • Happy B-Day, Dad! I miss you every day.

  • i could not name a BETTER MUSCIAN

  • Very soothing ! There's a dream-like quality there ! Great music !

  • lost my dad august 5th. this song hurts and is so beautiful at the same time. God bless him please.

  • @elletsco Sorry to hear of your loss. God bless.

  • Mark es el mejor guitarrista de todos los tiempos- he is great!!!

  • Happy Fathers' Day.

  • those high notes are conflicting in a not good slightly out of tune way..love Mark but this is tough to listen to without wincing..

  • Thanks Mark....

    I lost my father today... And the lesson I learn from this song.... is that I Should have told him that I love him more often, that I did........ I miss You dad.... Son

  • @Endimion281

    I felt the same when I lost my dad. The fact you feel that shows you probably told and showed him more than you realize. You will miss him every day, but his memory was his gift to you. Feel better. You loved your dad. That stands up all by itself. Peace.

  • Very very nice... Mark is one of the greatest musicians I've ever heared.

  • Magical song from an original ...... I love his style

  • Splendid, remarkable, gratifying, soul enriching, life changing, ........................., fill in the blank with the superlative of your choice, for like THE MAN himself says in the intro, "They really are believe you me, as good as it gets!" The same can be said of the Master of Ceremony, Mark Knopfler is, simply, in a CLASS of his own! So Thank You : Leksingen for the upload, You Tube for the space, and M. K. for being the BEST! And Rock On you brothers and sisters on The Emerald Isle!

  • bellissima,da sogno,mi sembra di volare su questa stupenda melodia,su di un mondo senza guerre,crisi e calamità,peccato duri solo 3:23.....ma è sufficente cliccare di nuovo su play,e il volo ricomincia,la magia della musica.......

  • how calming this tune is...

  • knopfler-minus geldhof = where is geldoff, be jezzus?? the sinigogue counting his money,

  • What's that he says (in Irish, I think) at about 0.51 ??

  • Scroll down ("OK" in Geordie)

  • @spennithorne1 Local dialect to Newcastle upon Tyne and Sunderland in the UK.

    Called "Geordie" dialect. I am from south of this region so maybe someone can nail it better...prolly to Newcastle upon Tyne...

  • A Free Ireland

  • always giving credit.....

  • If I'm not mistaken, he's got a bayan on there, too... not often seen in that part of the world. I love it!

  • what a line up of the greatest of the greats

  • I think he's talking about an instrument called an irish bouzouki. I play one sometimes. It's like an octave mandolin but with a longer neck. I think it's a relatively new instrument. It sounds amazing.

  • bouzouki is an isnstument that originally came from the middle east and during the 20th century it became the people's favorite instrument in Greece too.

  • You got me curious, so I looked up Irish bouzouki on wikipedia and apparently it was developed in the late 1960's. It has a flat back and initially most of them had flat tops too. The three Irish musicians known for their work on the Irish bouzouki are Johnny Moynihan, Andy Irvine and Donal Lunny. It's a cool instrument. My irish bouzouki is basically an octave mandolin with a longer scale neck.

  • thnx for the info! What i wrote is based on the name of the instrument which is eastern (probaby turkish) and is widespread in my country too. I have no doubt that the Irish made it their own, after all they love music traditionally.

  • Usually when I hear the word bouzouki, I think of Greece. There was a bouzouki player in Cambridge, MA (USA) that played the most beautiful Greek music. It was such a treat to hear him. The cross-cultural musical influences are so interesting.

  • bouzouki (greek instrument) in an ireland band...magik.brilliant!!!!! but how?

  • I love when music gels. Prove we are all of the one soul no matter what. Check out MK's history and see who he's collarated with - rock, blues, trad, hillbilly etc. Gent and genuis

  • Beautiful. MK is a music genius.

  • author kafanı zkiyim her entry altına bunu vermişin. topsun olm.

  • makes you cry!!

  • god beautiful

  • Magic, isn't it,, an augmented 7th that makes everything Irish.

  • what is an augmented 7th?

  • is a type of chord i think, i dont actually know much musical theory

  • And His use of the great .. Uilian Bagpipe.. God Bless Mr Knofler

  • MK is great !!! And his Pensa guitar is a jewel !!!
