    In 1992 I went to a music store and bought 5 cassette albums. Michael Jackson's Dangerous. Dire Straits On Every Street. Donna Summer's Mistaken Identity and Enigma's debut album. Think what a beautiful time it was.

      I'd be honored if some Dire Straits fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of ON EVERY STREET and IF I EVER LOSE MY FAITH IN YOU by Sting in tribute to this genius songwriting. Live acoustic on my YT with no autotune or digital enhancements. Peace and stay safe.

    We are in 2024. A Brazilian man, far way from his home, seating alone in an Irish pub, in a raining day. Alone. Just him and his pint of Guinness in a lost pub in Dublin cold city.
    This song starts to play in the pub. A 5o and something years old man alone in a pub find rejoice and starts to remember the first time he heard that song. He was what, 20 and something years old? It doesn't matter: that song brought him back so many good memories from a very long time ago.
    God, what a wonderful experience. How good was the feeling to remember the past, the friends, the memories from a very long time ago.
    Thank you for sharing this beautiful music. Thank you for bringing me back so many good experiences and memories.
    Happy Easter!

    She passed away in 2004, and this song gets me every time I hear it. It's been awhile, and I sold the Scout years ago, but I still look for her face. Never shows, but I keep looking.

    The outro is as close to perfect as there is.

    2:50 onwards the magic moment when a band, without talking, without looking, feels eachother with some undescribable connection to make this absolute magic. it's amazing when everything fits and comes together. this is what i still miss about Mark Knopfler today; the dire straits. Knopfler alone is great. But with the Dire straits, it was legendary. I do miss that.

    This song reminds me eternally of a certain girl who once approached me at a baker several years ago quite soon in the morning. She spoke to me in a very kind way. She asked what kind of perfume I wore. I was looking at the offered food, lost in thoughts, still tired, reacted dumb, answered "Just usual shower gel". I did not pay attention, didn't even care to turn my damn head to look at her as it is considered polite when you are talked to. I barely noticed her appearance but, boy, it was so calming and her voice was pleasant. Most likely I wouldn't even recognise her if I saw her again. When I realised what was going on, she had left. I never saw her again and today I still blame myself for being so stupid. Of course I would want to get to know her, but I would give a lot just to let her know I apologise for my rejecting behaviour as maybe she took all her courage to talk to a stranger like me.
