Dire Straits - BEST Brother In Arms LIVE

[StGeorgesofMons]

7 dislikes ? Metallica fans assurely....

[TheLaser373]

BEST HEART/SOUL SONG EVER!

[R99MELI]

The title should be Mark Knopfler making love with his Fender!

[MisterSacul]

@R99MELI Actually, Mark is playing with his 50s' Gibson Les Paul on this song (and all others version of Brothers in Arms) and not the Fender Stratocaster/ John Suhr Guitars he uses on most of his songs.

[slickwing]

What's up with all these heebs on this video?

[xaxa835]

no words to describe the gift that he has ,

[iskanderand]

goosebumps.....

[salim1975ful]

Beautiful song, but flying the flag of the devils ground

[DeeArr]

@salim1975ful How so? "We were fools to make war on our brothers..."

Sounds consilitatory to me. i.e. exactly the opposite of the Devil's idea of war.

[doobon]

@DeeArr LOL

i'd say he was referencing the isareli flag at the beginning :)

[slickwing]

@DeeArr Amen, Aryan's killing Aryan's makes the heebs smile.

[gibsonlespaulfany]

unbelievably good!!



[oseasale]

Mandela´s version is the best by far, next is "On the night" version.

This version has a nice ending especially after 6,15.

[RonjSuper]

gives me shivers al the time

[StefanoJP6]

As Mark started to play I started to cry... This song is pure art..

[caroline0566]

Always makes  me cry

[Ditogool]

The mandela 88 version is the best.!

[derjul1981]

mandela is definitiley great like anything mark knopfler and/or dire straits but mandela is played on his custom mk strat body...they song is designed and mostly played on a les paul even though he is mostly a strat guy

[gaborzer]

the mandela 88 version is the best :) so much emotion...

[38Vitale]

"On the night" is a better version in my opinion, but the very best ever played is the one at Mandela Stadium Live 1988. There is one video with a little better sound. It doesn't get any better than that. God bless Knopfler and Dire Straits :)

[evyatarla]

theres nothing like Eretz Yisrael!

P&L

[atoman9865]

@evyatarla Amen ken yehiratzon!

[johnredpath]

great version but have to agree the mandela version was better.much more emotion.

[1973HenkY]

Mandela concert is number 1. Song + Occasion + Execution = Live performance

[steffenbrix]

@1973HenkY

but the sound is bad on the Mandela...

[TheTjw2010]

@steffenbrix try it with headphones, LOUD

[ericohman]

@TheMindfreak86 I second that. Yet to find a better live performance than brothers in arms "on the night". Thats the best I've seen by any musician

[hugosalarm]

It's very rare, I think, to be reminded of our collective stupidity in such an elegant, beautiful way as this. Were that conflicts between nations and other acts of violence be equally rare.

[bluefross]

there are very few musicians having a melodic sense so they play the right tone at the right place at the right time with the right intensity. Mark Knopfler is such a musician same as Finbar Furey in Folk or B.B. King and Peter Green in Blues.

All those high speed guitar pickers are just small people.

[TheMindfreak86]

The best live performance of this masterpiece in my opinion is "On the night"

[steffenbrix]

@TheMindfreak86

I think it's this one!

[rimula01]

@TheMindfreak86 I agree!!

[tjrrockandrollmaster]

@TheMindfreak86 This is superior to On the Night as this was at the height of Dire Straits' game right here. The pedal steel on OTN ruined it and also Mark's Les Paul was absent. Terry Williams' drumming is more energetic here than that Chris Whitten who sounded wooden. Also I prefer how it ends here with the repeat of the intro with the energetic drums and the final drum roll during the F sharp which stops cold and Mark utters "thank you we love you" and BANG with an ending like Gods opening.

[jimmymarshall20]

@tjrrockandrollmaster lol

[Equilibriumization]

the BEST!!!! the BEST!!!! the BEST!!!!

[BenJammin2point0]

@Equilibriumization its the BEST jerry! the BEST!!

[sean70able]

I've never had a song in my life touch me the way this one has. I honor all of our solders, not just on 9/11, but every day. A part of my heart will always be with them. LOVE SEAN POOLE

[MOONyMAN24]

In Palestine EVERY DAY for more than 50 years .. who's killing people EVERY DAY ? who taking there land EVERY DAY ? who's carrying guns against women & children & who's carrying rocks & stones ? who's riding armored tanks in the streets & who's walking with a cane EVERY DAY ? who's destroyed the schools & buildings EVERY DAY ? who's making concrete borders walls EVERY DAY ? who's destroying homes & burning farms EVERY DAY ?

and who's living in encampment TODAY ?

any way it's a good song

[themayklan1]

@MOONyMAN24 go away

[litehouse6]

@MOONyMAN24 Hamas and Hezbollah. 

[MOONyMAN24]

[8mayan8]

[Mooseshagger1]

I remember seeing this tour live. Amazing. I was a bit stoned but wow...

[MOONyMAN24]
