dude what you should do is play it on an acoustic, kus fuck bro it will sound amazing, if you play like a classical style with it, it would be awesome
big mistake my friend... Hank Marvin from The Shadows (who was a great inspiration for Knopfler) has covered the song in the mid 80's. The song is originally written by Mark in 1983 for the soundrack of the movie "Local Hero". And that's a fact...
amazing guitar

Very good..
You're well on your way to become a great guitar player.
Listen to other versions of this song to really get the 'feel' to it. But you already play this song very very good.
Peace to everybody on earth

try to play it without a pick, you can get a better sound with fingerpicking, and use a pedal volume, it's useful for this
very good
