    Love the style of brushes that the drummer used in this song I would class this as the best record that Mark ever wrote and performed with James Taylor the song is a master class on story telling, the song is based on a true story of two Englishmen Sailing To Philadelphia.

    What's wrong with me? When immersed in Mark and his incredibly talented musicians on YT my eyes usually well up and sometimes tears roll down my cheeks. If family are not around (like now) I weep when the music stops. But when listening to the same orchestrations on Spotify, I somehow manage to keep it together and feel joy. No other artist does this for me. Is it just emotional overload from feeling like I am in the audience?

    You’re one talented man !!! Your music helped me after I woke up from a coma after having knee surgery. Too much anesthesia I think. It was the only music that would help me relax enough to sleep. After waking I was up three days n nights in the hospital so I played brothers in arms mostly ,quite a lot. Thank you 😊

    When you're very young and your favorite guitarist comes to be Mark Knopfler in DIre Straits (Alchemy), and years later you hear this comforting song, "Sailing to Philadelphia", and ten years later you read Thomas Pynchon's Mason & Dixon, and you return to "Sailing to Philadelphia" some years later and realize he's writing about that book. Oh, shoot, @MarkKnopfler has a big brain.

    You really don't need Audible. Just listen to Mark Knopfler. He tells a story with deftness, capturing from the opening and holding you to the last page. Every song tells a tale, be it history, love, longing or loneliness. An artist of rare ability and we are grateful. Thank you so much, sir.

Just can't say enough about it. My attention was first given to your beautiful song Walk of Life. It is still one of my most valued songs. What a gift to the music community. So I've loved you ever since that song was released. You are amazing. There's not enough that I can say!!

    I'm what's called a numismatist. I also deal in rare coins so I'm known as a coin dealer. But anyone with a few bucks can "deal" in coins but those of us who actually study history and use these little spheres of knowledge to do so are called numismatists and we are considered a notch above from a standpoint of knowledge certainly about rare coinage.
    Mark Knopfler is a great guitarist and musician. In my opinion he is certainly Hendrix material but musically, lyrically, Mark is even on a different level than Hendrix or Clapton or even some of the classical guitarists, he's deeper, and he understands history and it's importance to study, like Telegraph Road, the Mason Dixon line etc. Mark if a "coin dealer" would be a Numismatist. and I would be honored to call him a fellow numismatist or coin weanie ha! Thank you Mark, your music will forever be in my soul, would just like to share a meal with you sometimes
