The first few notes always make my hear flutter with joy...I am so happy I stumbled over this beautiful rendition. Thank you so much for sharing and have a lovely day! Greetings from Germany
Awesome rendition of a great song! Congrats Mark on a superb performance with feel, precision and tone. And your vocal is as good as your reso playing. I look forward to hearing more from you!
Well that was a lovely surprise! Was expecting the usual bland you tube video but you sir were incredible, guitar, vocal and sound all brilliant, im jealous of your talent.
One of my Favorite Dire Straits songs and I enjoyed it just as much as I did back in the day. Has it been that long?...It just can't be . Beautiful cover!! Thank you.
I must say you sang and played this song so nice. Ive only just started to play resonator guitar so this will be a video to keep me inspired. Thank you Paul
Absolutely beautiful, especially the end riff, on the record Mark plays that i think on the Stratocaster, what gives it a haunting sound wich gives me goosebumps every time i hear it. You are the first one who actually plays the end riff near to perfection, again top notch ❤ Greetings from The Netherlands 🇳🇱
Thanks so much! I couldn’t quite pull of the little electric guitar riff at the end but I think the idea comes across fairly well. Greetings from New York! 😊🎸
@@markbateman_music Absolutely, that end riff is so special, i have the same feeling with Telegraph Road, i the middle of the song you have that piano piece and Mark joins it with that delicious guitar playing. I don’t know if you like The Eagles? but at the end of I can’t tell you why, you have the same, the end playing is so beautiful, i know its another band but i recognize top music immediately 😊
Not many people out there with the ability to do this song justice like you did. Awesome stuff!
Thanks so much for the kind words and for checking out my video. 😁🎸
Nicely done sir. I'm impressed
As always, the man brings a "life long music loving heart" to the table and kicks ass. Hand down.
