Mark Knopfler - Cleaning my gun OFFICIAL VIDEO

[hunchdrunk]

How is Knopfler not in the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame ?

[heegterp]

is there any better guitar player?????

[vanyk1]

Cпасибо и пой ещё, pliz!!!!!!!

[Ghengiscould]

Truly the most underrated guitar player....ever

[Mr5maggio]

Mark e' come una Ferrari.

[PAOSLIM]

Ascoltare e vedere Mark è sempre una cosa eccezionale! Per me è il più grande chitarrista del mondo

[chord972]

Thanks Mark! You continue to enrich our lives. In this song I discern a tip of the hat to John Prine's influence!

[arenasel10]

The best music I've heard in my life

[109296]

Boom like That.

[cleptow]

When I listened to this beautiful song there were 4 people who don't know great music.

[manydman]

Mark , I FUCKING HATE YOU. THE LAST 2 HOURS BEFORE MY ESSAY HAD TO BE DONE WERE SPEND HERE.

[mikebuyt1951]

love this song, love those guitar tones, love the cinematic lyrics

[jhffmn1]

Hey, Doesn't God playing the guitar look just like Mark Knopfler???

[KMT698]

@jhffmn1 Hey, isn't Mark Knopfler god?

[jhffmn1]

@KMT698 He sure is when he picks up a guitar!

[Ghengiscould]

@KMT698 No,,,he just sounds a whole lot better

[Fyremael]

I've had the pleasure of growing up listening to Mark Knopfler thanks to my parents, who played Dire Straits albums all the time while I was little and then getting interested in his music again later as a young adult. Love this music!

[Zelmquist]

awesome!



[MissesJoplin]

knopfler rocks.

[gtobayou]

Nice.

[SangMarocain]

i am moroccan hunter

[moreufm]

Great sounds, great voice, great Mark! Lot of thanks!

[LSMO57]

Mk always knows what to play but what is more important is that he knows when NOT to play' Playing a zillion notes at lightning speed pales to MK's ability to create that mood with just the right amount that draws you in to the song. Yeah. It's like that.

For me, anyway.

[GeorgeTel100]

@LSMO57 Excellent point about those self-absorbed "zillion notes"...!!!

[ripoff3]

@LSMO57 for me too, long live mark knopfler!! ripoff3

[MrMigue143]

3 people can not cleaning their guns

[hofmen75]

all the song has a perfect sonar unity..just love it.. :)

[YoAchilles]

For me, the beautiful thing about Mark's music is that it has never been fueled by drugs, violence, anarchy, etc. So many people think that you need to get high to make good music, but if you rely purely on drugs for your inspiration then you're not a proper musician (Hendrix and Clapton did some great stuff sober).

Going dweedely-dweedely up and down the neck with some kid's Hallowe'en costume on isn't music - it's a circus. Playing with your heart, with your soul...that's what counts.

[holeinmysoul1]

Respect from huge fan Morocco

[SangMarocain]

@holeinmysoul1 dima knopfler 

[33minutos]

mark´s voice is magic

[guitarguyger]

Mark is the reason I play guitar.

[ArmanHaddadzadeh]

Day without his songs is impossible for me...... this song reminds me the days of our last president election with blood and victims.....Mark wish you hold a concert in my country IRAN......

[magicwheel1]

Great song from a true musician's musician.

[alkhouzama]

great mark knopfler...

[NICKYmaster2010]

i listen to Mark KNopfler since i am 4 years old, and this song is one of the best ones =D

[goofi1able]

Great man,great muzician!!!!!

[misslistening]

I can watch it a thousand times and it's the same feeling!

[TheYankeeGardener]

I hear a lot of JJ Cale influence on this song

[bppieterse]

This man is a genius! One of the best tracks ever.

[rakotkrumpli]

Genius with experience <3

[zabblaszlo]

A legnagyobb király

[eddeduiker]

amazing great man

[goldenknopfler]

Love the guitar solo! It isn't a fast solo, but doing it as beatiful as Mark is maybe a mission impossible

[TheStepnen]

heads up

[HORTI]

In The Meantime

PERFECTION

[nastynate1229]

Great. Thanks a lot Mark. Now that I know this song exists I'll never get anything done.

[cheesynounou]

@nastynate1229 It's the opposite for me, This song helps me get things done!

[cheesynounou]

@nastynate1229 But I know what you mean.

[ThePreciousguitar87]

Marks music is a part of my life, I grew up listening to the Brothers in arms Lp!

So what can I say? I hope he´ll bring us much more music that follows us on the way of life!



[orionrodi]

@ThePreciousguitar87 I followed Mark since the first DS album - and i will keep on following him and his great music. It´s just like wine, it getting better and better.

[gelliani]

Great song... thanks for uploading Drugarqt, and for song Mark...

[dunnes]

does anyone know how to play this on guitar?



[Grapefruitossy1203]

Would have been a great opening tune for the GL tour :)))

[weeeercia]

the best voice I've heard <33

[amybabyrobot]

tune.

[milan070vivaz]

right mix of MK guitar and rocky drumms/groove, love it!!!! Can't sit still and in the car hit the gas!

[hesmon]

Mark always comes up with very tasteful notes in exactly the right places.

[MrMelinify]

WOW!!! Nice song - nice sound!

[cmendla]

Fantastic song.!!.. This would go great with his Kingdom Come "I got my very own antitank gun" (Always wondered if that was a Barrett or a Boyz)...Mark has done a lot of other songs with similar themes: "ride across the river" and "brothers in arms" "Done with Bonaparte" to name a few...

[scouserEFC81]

Snare sound is great. Oh yes and mark kicks ass too.

[RetroJenny]

It is so sad that most younger musicians cannot make music this good. Mark Knopfler is a genius.

[dergrossen]

@RetroJenny Cannot expect the younger musicians to make music like this. If this year was 1977 even MK could not make music like this. Suggesting that younger people can do this is ridiculous. Bit like asking a 19 yr old to fly a big airliner across the Atlantic...impossible

[RetroJenny]

@dergrossen I am saying that most of the younger musicians cannot make a decent rock song. By young I was not referring to teenagers.

[dergrossen]

@RetroJenny All of the people that play on this song are around 50 yrs old. This song is a six piece set...that is about 200 years of top line music experience. The equipment used here is top notch as is the production.  The younger musicians can and do make good music but there is always an influence or direct instructional help. MK had no help...

[leisure72]

...In the meantime I'm Cleaning MY Gun... Awesome what a good idea? But which gun too clean first? What a great uplifting song....

[neverendingcortez]

It seems like Bob Dylan's Misssissippi to me. However a good song and Mark's style is always incomparable

[ajwplanet]

@neverendingcortez

maybe its because they are both great? :P

[ajwplanet]

Went to the concert with my father where they played this, I will remember this as one of the best father-son moments!! this is just great ........

[rcarrl]

the class : never die, is simply fantastic

[Niegrzeczek]

Mark - jesteś debeściak!!!

[KingfisherFarm]

My new favorite song.

[hoshangpurveyor]

What is it about British Artists (Be it musicians or actors/actresses) that just puts them Above and Beyond everybody else. They just keep Rocking if u ask me. Keep it on the up and up always.

[coldwind9999]

Oh my god. I love Mark Knopfler. This is how a men talk from the heart.

[faronthefiddler]

Never sit with your back to the door.

[serebrjanka]

Great!

[YoungJim409]

The ringing on the guitar strings totally does it for me.

[miriam5baza]

THE BEST GUITAR ON THE WORLD!!!!

[GBNunes96]

a great musician...beautiful songs...awesome guitarrist

two words...Mark Knoplfer xD

i saw him live (in Lisbon, Portugal)...GREAT concert

[phippogriff]

Just awesome! 

[kawa56saki]

i loved ds, but this is so boring

[33minutos]

i never get bored of this song!

[christtian92]

q temaso por dioooss

[radkid06]

Badass.  Hell yeah.

[BadgerStateVideos]

This the first video I saw to have zero dislikes.

[JamminWagon]

Cant understand the words half the time. Crappy mixing engineer

[tailesill4]

@JamminWagon the lyrics are fab, be sure to google them, so original and macho with the sorta tense details of the whole scene!

[1972finnegan]

The Best!!!

[lezik67]

отлично

[dergrossen]

@lezik67 yeah

[fullimmerzion]

fantastic song, fantastic album... get lucky mark, you're one of the best ever...



[MDPATRIOT71]

Great song! Love the lyrics, love the beat, just awesome :)

[tmcd1952]

the Man just keeps getting better...what a great song...saw him in Birmingham UK recently..pure magic

[tailesill4]

we're gonna might need bullets...so clever

[Eclecticaensemble]

GREAT SONG, GREAT GUITARS and SOUNDS! Looking forward to see Mark soon in Budapest!

[MrFender54]

spelled wrong a devious firm

[hottalk68]

This is a keeper...! I sure hope these guys took a gumbo break after this number!! Rock n Roll, Call the Union... they're ready!

[pacollin]

jjajaa me pase meses sin escuchar nada del GL de wn no mas jejeje ahora ando buscando por todos lados..

Ni sabia que teniamos video de este tema je.

Saludos desde Chile.

[MrFender54]

mark's the man again.

[drmartinezx]

Rodney Atkins---Cleaning this Gun  intro

[Hezzi123]

Best song from the new album IMO.

[rrc1985]

Is that a 12 string? Respect! Great song :-D

[HansPeterJohann]

@rrc1985 It's not hard to play a 12-string ;) it's like a normal guitar ;) but i love knopfler...he's great and the song is great too :)

Sry for bad english ;)

[tailesill4]

but did he play this song at the Tower last night??? NO! What's up with THAT? It

kinda "spoiled my fun."

[dergrossen]

@tailesill4 He has written so many songs...I wish I could get to see him play live..just call yourself lucky you were able to go.

[tailesill4]

Some shit went down in past but songs not about that, its about being prepared. The just in case mentality. So MALE. The animal-preparedness- use-of-ones-time. A post 9/11 song if there ever was one, but so far afield of that, not that trite. Deft use of suggestion triggers you to fill in blanks or just be ON EDGE. Fun can be had but only on cusp of menacing threat--from weather/ nature, returning goons/revenge seekers, or the past (memory, which opens song into even wider metaphor).

[dergrossen]

@tailesill4 wow thats deep...you must be a paranoid LOL

[bentonta]

cool ! and smooth as silk ,

[tailesill4]

so excited for this song to come rolling in at me at the Tower this Friday!

[sam181192]

i just wish mk would sing slightly more and not mumble so much

Apart form that its a great song

[dergrossen]

@sam181192  you ain't listening properely LOL

[Danny0893]

This song is so great!

When I close my eyes I can just imagine what he is singing about.

Beautiful!

[AIC4life47]

I get to see this god preform in a few days, so excited!!

[dergrossen]

Can someone tell me if the tall dark guy on the bass is John Ilsley please?

[21webb]

@dergrossen No it's Glenn Worf

[dergrossen]

@21webb .. good looking guy

[dergrossen]

as tight as a duck's ass stellar

[SuperModwolf]

absolutely brilliant greatest guitarist that ever

picked one up

[mhynds001]

Class. Looking forward to the concert in May.

[dergrossen]

Rmbr when they first hit a radio play with Sultans of Swing back in 1977...amzn sound back then for the UK...

[dergrossen]

@dergrossen or was it '78?

[bluesrockfanatic]

One of Knopfler's best. I feel like Dire Straits has returned. Great, Great tune.

[dergrossen]

@bluesrockfanatic Yeah we are back to '78...amazing..

[dergrossen]

@bluesrockfanatic exactly

[glasgowsailors]

Mk's gear: '58 Les Paul + Reinhardt Amp

Bennet's gear: Burns double 6 + Vox AC15

[tushayaway]

uhh huh!!

[dergrossen]

@glasgowsailors WOW!"! key board is ca. 1969 too!

[docwholunatic]

At my age, I can sing along with this song, and mean every word...! If I had a gun, I'd be right there.....

[masquedroga1991]

yes! very great song...

[thetinkerer]

Man this is just FANTASTIC

[PeeNoYaKo]

They need to make a video for So far from the Clyde or Piper to the end!

[PaulRamos1993]

Can anyone indicate the tabs for this music, please? Thank you.

[pppp3116]

The amp is Reinhardt.

[h0trein]

I think the amp that Mark is using in this song is his Tone King Imperial

[JIMMYJIBLETS]

can anyone pick out what amp mark is playing in this video? I can only see a corner of it and can't tell

[hookedinthefin]

Best tune on the new CD

[benniG87]

jeah great song!

but who`s blarney and malarkey?

[greeneyedsteamengine]

I believe they're a law firm in cahoots with Dewey-Screwem and Howe.

[dergrossen]

@greeneyedsteamengine yeah..findasuker and milkemdry .. nice folks.

[MrFender54]

@benniG87 a devious farm

[DucatiDan1198]

[acanthus211]

Great tune--thanks for posting!

[MrArturomazzeo]

The master is back!

[yuza791]

@MrArturomazzeo I agree with you: every single note is something special. I can't find something like this elsewhere!

[dergrossen]

@yuza791 Well ya can..just this guy is more popular than most.

[kkace]

porque nos hacemos viejos? que vida mas injusta. El mejor rockero, nunca muere.

[dergrossen]
