Dire Straits - You And Your Friend + lyrics

[ThePsyinfected]

Worlds best guitarsolo in this one! dreaming awayyyyy!!!!

[AubieScottHunt]

picking up babes

[felsner1]

Great, under-appreciated record... The low-key tunes like this one fared especially well...

[MrWillywax]

This song helped me through serious kind of shit, indeed

[batnani]

wunderschööööööööööööööööööööö­öööööön...hut ab vor dieser musik

[vaimechemi]

the most penetrating song ever!

[mohamedyehia32]

very gooooooooooooooood

[musicequalhappiness]

I see myself back in the 90s listening to this late late at night, instead of studying, in my student room, lying on my bed eyes closed headphones on my ears , so sweet and so crystal clear in the middle of the night, i was like alone in heaven..

[kaavehf]

@musicequalhappiness same here, I was doing the same thing during the same time period in Tehran, Iran. ur comment made me remember good old times.

[BlackOWLfly]

@musicequalhappiness I recommend you to also listen to Scorpions' song: "Night lights". You might find it a little less chilling, but it's worth it. And, to remember the good old days, search a song ( also by Scorpions) named Hey You! ;)

[AAMaaRyy]

i love this song!!!!!!! :X :X:X

[DHL3476]

ich höre das schon , ach jahr 10te und geht immer noch unter der haut und jetzt noch mehr , ohne meine 4 lieben , <3 <3 <3

[dearylmusatafa]

[1quig]

Just what I needed time to mellow for the holidays, Thanks.

[09wicki]

my soul is DANCING

[snookie60100]

well said Mikkeifrench - a real masterpiece ! soft but strong !

[mikkeifrench]

This song is awsome, it glides like a silk sheet.

[vince89130]

une personne ici n'a pas d'ami

[Mr5maggio]

Semplicemente un capolavoro.

[skiddy888]

jus' wish it wouldnt end

[TheVlupik]

prachtige muziek...wauwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

[MrRoysmusic]

@4:16. Love that guitar work!

[lucio2pereira]

muito bom!!!

[F5Speedy]

I like the sound of the Hammond organ growling away in the background.

[Msdistarr]

@F5Speedy It's perfect isn't it.

[assopantarei]

Da che CD è tratta questa versione ? Grazie.

[galexico]

@assopantarei

"On every street" (1991)

The cover of the CD is the one shown in the video

[RonTaboga]

The guitar improvisations from 3:38 are just so awesome!

[DeathByRock100]

interviewer: mark whats this song about

Mark: Sex

LOL

[Joshuaburbage]

@DeathByRock100

[DeathByRock100]

@Joshuaburbage what?

[71alvarenga]

one of the coolest songs ever!

[qhubbles]

I have it recorded on a Metal cassette! (sounds 1000 times better than the cd)

[jigsawbg]

@qhubbles

There is no reason to be. The dynamic range of CD is far beyond from any cassette type ;)

[qhubbles]

@jigsawbg may be it is... but I have had the best CD players and cassette decks (and also reel-to-reel recorders) and the analogue media sounds loads better than the digital....

The sony CD-101 is the only one that is trying to convince me though XD

[MrAleksandr3095]

Спасибо,Марк!

[CAngel57ful]

This is the ultimate song by Mark Knopfler-I love this guy.

[stileking]

This song exceeds the limits of perfection !

Epic, Mark Knopfler is an idol

[Gshkk]

the one



[fustigamatti]

unique

[92460929]

Just a very good song

In my top10-list from Dire Straights

[12OclockLow]

I have no idea how this song managed to fly under the radar. In my opinion, it is one of Knopfler's best.

[smartalek180]

@12OclockLow

u r not the only 1

[seb8604]

If you want to know the difference between true music and cookie cutter mass-produced mediocrity, listen to today's music and then put in some Dire Straits. Mark Knopfler and DS could create some of the most celestial and profound sounds and imagery with their music. Take this song for example, Love Over Gold, Why Worry, Private Investigations, and Telegraph Road. I may only be 25, but I listen to these guys much more than any current stuff.

[smello79]

1 person doesn't have any Friends.

[queenmagic1982]

beautiful song i love the guitar at the end & the single 7inch has released in france only sleeve poster

[TheCamelFactor]

There is one sick person amongst us

[bassbob42]

Definition of tasteful

[anoop55]

He is killing us, by playing such beautiful music, now! where else can we go, for this guitar and voice...

[archmsm]

@anoop55 you are right !! where the hell are we gonna go to listen to such quality music with so much crap around that sells as music...! god help us !....

[vinnern71]

Im not the biggest fan of Dire Straits, but this song is just amazing and unforgettable. Every night when i go to sleep, I put on Fade to Black, followed by You and Your Friend. The quiteness gets to me, and I fall a sleep right away. Best song ever !!

[Ketusun]

Guitar at its Best ! Spellbinding !

[JWicksful]

I love the inuendo of "you and your friend"...

[MiddleEye512]

Like the grand-child of Six-Blade Knife, only thirty-two times better.

[iuliantacu]

es una cancion que si el dios mismo lo h iciera no solia mas perfecta...!!!

[Tyrfingr]

My favourite Straits album by far this one.

[mkr88lm]

god this is pure magic.

[prober45]

one person has to be the dumbest music hater on the planet

[JWicksful]

I think this is THE sexiest song I have ever heard....baby baby mmmm help me!

[JWicksful]

I think this is THE sexiest song I have ever heard....baby baby mmmm help me!

[chrisjewett63]

@JWicksful MMMMMmmmm Me too !!! Cj

[kumarabhishekjha]

What mystical sound...knopfler weaves another magic out of his six strings...! By the way, the song is about a threesome that mark witnessed or thought about...

[adry2637]

bellissima !!!

[markillingworth1972]

[snookie60100]

Perfection exists - the proof is

[MultiCimabue]

bellissimo brano strepitosi dire straits

[jjtopp99]

Ahh, to have such talent!

[chucknorvald]

Sinnsykt bra.



[labyonnette]

Rarely do we see such excellence in the combination of voice and guitar playing. mark has a God given talent that was sent to please us all in the same way that some of the classics please some of us. It is a nuique talent and sooooo pleasing. When Ive listened to this I go and give my wife a big hug and tell her how much I love her

[darrengovier]

love love love xxx

[dolphinrunner6]

Funny. An Englishman wrote it.

[KGBfbiSECUpolitia]

6 BLADEdKnife, Follow meHome, PrivateInvestigations, Romeo & Juliet, RealGirl,_LOVE OverGOLD_ , ExpressoLove, PrairieWedding, etc = muchBetter !

[julieburlot]

Between Knoffler's voice and the riffs...it just scratches my skin all the right ways; you're totally right dolphinrunner!



[dolphinrunner6]

The ultimate love-making soundtrack. Sexiest song I've ever had the pleasure of hearing/sharing. Who cares what it's about......it's pure sex to me.....

[KGBfbiSECUpolitia]

dolphinrunner6, _FadeTo BLACK_ is ( even) better for LuvMaking/sex especially since _Once U go BLACK, U never look Back _ as they say.

_Follow Me Home_ , SixBladedKnife, Your latest trick, Planet of new Orleans, LoveOverGold,etc ,etc even The TelegraphRoad,etc are just about good for getting in the mood as .... Black ( & Latino, Hispanics + ASIANs, etc etc but not English !) MEN know how to work aLady

[dolphinrunner6]

The ultimate love-making soundtrack. Sexiest song I've ever had the pleasure of hearing/sharing.

[westwind15]

I know there is debate about what this song is about. Sounds to me like he's trying to set up a second three way with a couple of chicks!

[MrTiborBuza]

One of my favourits. Great music. We listened to this song (and album:-))) while making love the first time:-)))

Beautiful memory

[MrTiborBuza]

What a great music and we were listening to this album when I made love the first time:-)

Great music!

[1ok4u]

This song and some Drambuie makes for a nice trip

[hymenopteros]

thought there was nothing i did not know from MK - big mistake ;o) what an awesome song !!!!! thanx for sharing!

[jsebsteelguitar]

Thank you for posting this beautyfull song!

If you have time, take a look at our modest cover we made with my friend...

[MrWillywax]

I often drive at night in the streets of Lyon (France) just to listen to this CD in my car audio device... just to die for

[Bobbylatope]

@MrWillywax : i come from lyon too. (walking from Sans Souci to Grange Blanche, i'm listening too this song, by night).

[samhimself2009]

NO 1

[hyperboogie]

Simply perfect.

Nothing should be added and nothing should be taken away.

[MrPivx]

Le son de la guitare acoustique est tellement chaleureux...

[dragknuckle]

So many great textures.

[cris23dumi]

you and your friend and your latest trick - if u get these songs u'll see that this life is hard tooooooooooooooooooooo hard and for what?..

[vitorro1970]

Magico-demassie-geniales.

[PaulC39]

Great song. The music and lyrics are so good. Mark can sing well.

[09amitava]

I just wanna cry. How can a human being sing like this beautiful!!

[hessam1977]

lots of memories

[fedra64]

4,16 magical

[MrDelfin967]

Это просто чудо!!!!

[kosanichf]

@MrDelfin967

pravda

[kosanichf]

@MrDelfin967

pravda

[digoutursoul1980]

 wow!....eargasm...

[luciaaa233]

@digoutursoul1980 I Like your pun !!!

[tonit]

@xxxxwhyohwhyxxxx exactly. It's what I feel everytime i listen to dire straits, and I'm no musician or expert. Even to someone like me, it's clear that mark's music comes from his soul, which makes it very beautiful.

[okowykol]

Amazing outro!

[MizukiXian]

Love. <3

[mykky1969]

sempre i numeri 1

[snookie60100]

D'après le nombre de vidéos que tu as mis en ligne , ca sent le fan 120 % , et ca fait toujours plaisir de retrouver ca. Celle-ci est particulièrement mélancolique. Enfin , quelle bonne idée d'avoir rajouté les lyrics sur chacun de ces excellents enregistrements. Tu es le Sultan des video !

[deansusky]

Hear it loud ,,,,,,and well ,,great tune yes too bad this music and the song ends

[TheTammylee513]

@deansusky There are sooo many of his songs that should never end!!!!

[systemshock73]

@TheTammylee513 sure!

[lynn123ification]

@TheTammylee513 i agree i luv a lot of dire straits tracks and replay them as i dont want them to end...:)

[Melodia466]

@TheTammylee513 - so right

[Defsolid]

@poovegan999 talk about musical ignorance.

[Christoph251188]

Mark Knopfler is a stunning genius!!!

[74lad]

hell of a song hits when you hurt!!!!

[Bobbylatope]

this song hurts my soul.

[mariaortensia1]

Che dire, è bellissima.

[TheTammylee513]

This song should never end.

[Zazinikki]

@TheTammylee513

You're absolutely right Bro!!!

[TheTammylee513]

@Zazinikki Have you listened to Fade to Black?

[Montecco]

@TheTammylee513

You are right .

From 3:20 till the end Mark is showing how guitar can cry .

Excellent arrangement and probably best guitar solo .

Mark is probably the best guitar player ever .

[TheTammylee513]

@Montecco You are so right, too bad more people don't know how talented he is.
