[MBM111]

Thank you for the upload :) Such a great song

[pedro884everandever]

sailing to the clients :-)

[Makethemhearragtime]

Life sounds better to music.

[rdj410]

Check out 1:55 when they go into the chorus and sing "Sailing to Philadelphia" and the keyboard player sings a terrible flat/sour note when he sings "Philadelphia", look at Mark Knophler's reaction and the look he gives him! It is awesome! As if to say, "WTF are you doing?" I love it. Killer song.

[asabodacha]

Muzyka wzrusza.Marka podziwiam.

[badasz09]

What a great voice he has!

[yakadee1]

Great audio but the aspect ratio is buggered.

[deltaflayer]

Dio mio!!

[Heroasango]

Awesome sound!

Thanks a lot for posting!

[GuitarTosh007]

Thank you for this! :) So beautiful, this song :O

Perfect to listen when just came home from school! :)

[dwittersnacker]

I love the serene quality of this song, it is absolutely beautiful. Thank you Mark. And thank you Dog... again.

[rampagesk8a]

5:00 soooo good :0

[jerakje]

He is coming to Holland in a few months. It's a pity he is sharing the stage with Bob Dylan, not such a great singer anymore...

[radkid06]

God.

[jgribhamnz]

gotta be one of his best, this song NEVER gets old. Paints a vision of a city of sails, of dreams coming true

[magicelliotth]

@jgribhamnz That's a beautiful comment.

I hope it get's the thumb's up that it deserves

[fireandrain1]

That makes me feel so good...If I could..I'd bottle that feeling and take a sip when I needed the hit...

[fireandrain1]

Just quality..

[Triton61]

So relaxing that I could almost feel the sea breeze and hear the sea birds flying overhead.

[gatiboti08]

Un autentico crack, maravillosa balada. Y esa guitarra ufff, como suena!!!

[DirkjeA]

This live version is realy beautiful, I have the cd but hadnot heard this version, I am swept of my feet, thanks for sharing, great upload.

[fireandrain1]

God bless Mark...what a gentleman and talent

[BertrandGoethals]

0 people hate music

[EvelcyclopS]

perfect

[WalterSugar]

I surely do not agree with that...

[bullybullseye123]

My hero!

[lennonpondleaver]

1 of the few live songs from mark that is better than original i love it

very good

[robinjohanssonmdh]

@lennonpondleaver Are you crazy? There are plenty..! Border Reiver to name one.

[jackesko]

i missed his concert ...:'(

[emmfiction]

I have listened to Mark for over 30 years.....and every time he left me out there embraced with magic...

[AdFhoc]

Nowdays you dont realy find music like this..This music finds you.

[picpic25]

for me it's definitely the best version of this amazing song !!

[RoadHouseLexxie]

4:46 - 5:05 owns all those nu-metal noobs....

[heilahdus]

what the F*ck is Prince's trust??

[grizzlylegend]

@heilahdus what a silly little comment

[quayler85]

@heilahdus Prince Charles' charity

[petermillerguitar]

These clips are great. coming back for more

Thanks again for posting!

[petermillerguitar]

These clips are great.

Thanks for posting!

Wish they were screened downunder

[davehb9]

Mr. Knopfler, you are one great great song writer, guitarist and singer!

[shayAmon]

A living GOD

[petermillerguitar]

yeah, thanks mate for loading all these up on the ol' web.

It would make a great DVD. I wonder if it will be released

[tannerr96]

its hard enough to sing and play the guitar, how can you play sitting down and actually be heard

[gathyman]

@tannerr96 ...with a microphone?

[tannerr96]

@gathyman you still have to sing strong enough for the microphone to pick up the words and for the words to be clear and understandable

[wornpick1]

Possibly one of Mark's most significant songs. A true appreciation of his north-eastern roots (forget the European stuff). He grew up there, and Jeremiah Dixon is/should be a local hero. Beautiful song.

[davidovsky7]

You are the Best Mark...Tomorow i wil see you in Campo Pequeno - Portugal for the first time...its a dream :)

[thechoicewife]

Oh my goodness! It's John McCusker playing the low whistle...

[DireMan79]

This man is a genius. The guitar caught us, but the lyrics kept us. You're timeless Mark.

[marcisgreatAA]

when he is playing rythm he always plays it folk picking style.

[paulo0747]

You can put the full concert for us in torrent

[jgribhamnz]

The guitar is too quiet as some have said

and having another singer perform with the song, i.e. a duet like the original cd version, would make it even better. One of his best songs i believe, amazing artist

[mekh10]

simply gr8 ... no words fot this masterpiece

[Ferry72]

I love this version. It's fantastic. Beautiful solos also.

He is still great. Thanks man.

[Alex280592]

@esseaindanaotinha

I think the guitar is perfect

[jxn9988]

well, i don`t make any decision, just my 2 cents.

Guy is such a great singer and i love the original cd version and i think Guy would be perfect for it!

:)

that doesn`t mean, that mk isn`t doing it great ;)

[jxn9988]

that`s a really touching song, but i can`t understand why guy isn`t singing the other character in the live versions! that would be amazing

[HidalgoTub]

Thanks Dog ! ! ! !

[dnavidad]

again dogswede.

[TheBJKiD]

Best version ever

[nationalo]

Brilliant keep them coming Max. You have created THE BEST resource and MOST comprehensive site on the net for Knopfler/Straits material, you even found the original Straits demos that I thought Id never hear. THANK YOU!!!

[radkid06]

I love you Mark. Your music is beauty that has no words.

Live forever.

[natanielb]

Thanks for uploading all this great videos man!

[DogSwede1]

Sharing is caring

[petermillerguitar]

@DogSwede1

yeah, thanks mate for loading all these up on the ol' web.

It would make a great DVD. I wonder if it will be released

[radkid06]

Oh...MY....GOD. This melts my heart. This may be the best performance of this song that I have seen. Pure Gold. DogSwede1, you are seriously the best ever.

[jonasjar]

liten besvikelse dock att man inte känner igen ett enda av outro-riffen från skivan, eller ens någon släktskap med dessa. Det är naturligtvis bra och sevärt men jag är inte säker på att han var så himla inspirerad just den där kvällen.

[DogSwede1]

You have much to learn, young Jedi.

[Knutty4Knopfler]

i love the flute... they should have included it on the recording!

[TomMarvan]

Love the pipe-guitar interplay playout (reminiscent a little of Ride Across the River, Sydney '86).

[digmark49]

thank you - DogS u made my day !!

[emognr87]

I love the stage, the trees etc

[cmk7]

What a master guitar player he is!

Only gets better with time, like a fine wine.

[Zeilentransformator]

SCHÖN :-) Danke

[chauvera]

Very nice thanks

[jonasjar]

nu börjar det likna nåt...men försök få till lite längre outron tack!

[DogSwede1]

Låtarna är inte längre än vad de är.

[jonasjar]

det var ett försök till skämt :)

[DogSwede1]

Jag är seg, :D

[Granada28]

I love the duet-thing between mark and John with the cittern. Reminds me of the Albumversion where the duet is between Mark and James Taylor=) Thanks Mark and youre band, and thanks DogSwede!=D

[Kristalyviz]

: ) Thank you!

[thefriedishow]

Love it!

[DogSwede1]

How I wish I'd been there, :)

[thefriedishow]

Me too...
