@qaws12321able apology taken ...i know things are bad ...but just keep preatching...like that and you will go anywhere...like a tall man...nice coment...
I love this song so much...its the perfect song for when you're driving in the summer sun after a hard days work on a friday with a boozy weekend awaiting you
It's a shame that we couldn't hear this complete version on the radio. The short version for radio just spoils this incredible song. Thank you for this original complete version.
Dire Straits..one of those bands that were underated and unappreciated by many but when I'd put their records on at parties all my friends would be scrambling to find out "who it was who was playing those awesome tunes". It would piss me off because I knew they were great long before those ignorant fools even bought "Brothers In Arms". They're great from day one!
DogSwede has synced the full album track to the video quite well. The delay is completely unavoidable, because the video for that part simply doesn't exist.
it is the music we are going to listen too right? We can watch the vid if we want to, and i think its great of him to upload it, but we can expect everything to be the best we can think of right?
Dire Straits is really a great band. and you are true, people today have forgot the ral meaning of art and music. this is the music! not the shit which we could see today on MTV or on other music chanels.
I have it on good authority that he had a massive row with Mark, who directly questioned his musical abilities, thus leading him to storm out of the studio during the recording of their 3rd album.
That's true. They soon agreed with each other that the best would be if David left the band. But it was not really hard feelings between then, as M and D obviously talked and even played with each other not a long time after this. I've also heard David expressed it as "Mark being extra Mark". :D
Ich bin knapp 25 Jahre alt, und ich kenn Paar Leute die Abends mal miteinander musizieren, n paar Joints rauchen, Bier trinken und genießen...
Mit diesem Song beginnt und endet unsre Bandprobe meistens, und ich muss sagen.... es ist ziemlich die schwierigste Art Gitarre zu spielen... Knopfler eben...
Er ist meiner Meinung nach, ein Held der Modernen und vergangenen Musikgeschichte...
Musik zum Träumen.... Balsam für die Seele wie an 3:29 ...
This is without doubt the best version of saultans of swing im 27 my old man used to listen to Direstraits when i was a boy and i thought he was nutts but now i've matured it's one of my all time favorites!!!!! Knopfler in my eyes is a Master!!
no although i imagine Knopfler would go a bit mad :D though sometimes seeing a big act live never can meet your expectations. Saw Bob Dylan last week it was.....different.
Never seen Dire Straits live, as I was born -92. But there's lots of live version here on YouTube, and I've uploaded more than 30 different live versions of Sultans of Swing. So there's stuff to see. :)
i love this song, i think its the best song i ever heard. even if it doesnt rock too hard, doesnt groove too much, this song is a msterpiece. you dont just listen to it, you fell it. this is a feeling but a song.
By the way i just recognized that in the single version there is also a verse missing...i knew the last solo was missing but now i know where that "crowd of young boys" part was in my version...nowhere ;-)
First time I heard it I was in Switzerland, then I heard it a couple of weeks later in Barcelona but NOBODY knew what was the name. I was so happy when it woke me up on my alarm clock couple days ago. Totally random. That song may be the best I've ever heard.
real musicians, that's it!
