This song belongs in a time capsule ... just in case ... so future generations can hear the very best of our time. Long over due that MK belongs in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.

Just looking at the tabs of this solo on Ultimate Guitar and wow...They look SO simple...Then you try to play them and you realize that no matter how much you practice, you sound like a robot compared to Mark Knopfler. He is SO smooth and puts so much emotion into this. Mark really is an amazing guitar player...

i always wondered what he was going to say at 8:01.

[andreberna90]

Can someone write what Mark have said before starting to play?

@Marikit777 ... I mean "too" heartbreaking, instead of "to.."

[Marikit777]

This performance is to heartbreaking, too beautiful for words. Only Mark Knopfler.

best version ever 

[tonycatman]

It's all very well standing up there playing with such confidence when you are the best guitar player in the world.

I'd like to see him try it if he was mortal.
