I asked my alexa this morning for a song to cheer up the Friday and Walk of Life started playing. Minutes later they published this remaster video. I confess it was one of the best Fridays.
I subscribed to the Dire Straits TH-cam channel sometime ago because I genuinely just loved the music and really didn’t expect posts at all. And they went and re-uploaded (?) what is one of my all time favorite songs. What a nice surprise.
There was always really something cool about the band back in this era. MK playing the guitar like nobody else can, John on the bass and the way he just had the cool bass player vibe and my favourite Jack Sonni with his energy and smile and always bare foot - I was about 15 when this came out and I just wanted be exactly like him. Great times and memories 😊 So sad that Jack has now gone 💔
Vc que tá ouvindo essa música em pleno ano de 2022, parabéns! Você tem bom gosto musical. 🤌🏻🔝🇧🇷 Essa foi a primeira banda de rock que eu ouvi, marcou minha adolescência.
Hola, que día tan hermoso acompañado de nostalgia , yo oía esta música con mis hijos adolescentes , ahora a los 77 años me sienta muy feliz de escucharla de nuevo ❤
Oh that guitar 🎸 playing, if only I had learned to play just a little bit...I could teach it..or just strum and slum' Cool and off one of my favourite albums. Thanks for sharing...Dire Straits and Mark ..(K) no one does it better! xx
First time I heard this song: I had just received a call about the passing of one my close friend. It's not relevant but I couldn't let it go, so I Shazamed it and that's how I got here. Can't get the song out of my mind, even though it reminds of my late friend, but I still call it a masterpiece of art.
I'm wondering whether or not this song was dedicated to John Lennon. "He plays Be bop a Lula, baby what I say" - Lennon played be bop a Lula. He also did a song about a 'sweet lovin woman' in 'woman'. etc. It's a great song and lyrically darker than people assume, in stark contrast with the upbeat/feel-good melody, akin to many tracks by dire straits. The lyrics take a turn at the last verse: And after all the violence and double talk, there's just a song in all the trouble and the strife. You do the walk, yeah, you do the walk of life. Hmm, they do the walk of life". I think it implies that although he had a great time, playing his music, earning a living doing what he loved, at the end of the day they were only songs, and as he heads home realises it no longer matters. He's only playing a song amidst all the 'trouble and the strife'. Perhaps this is inferring Lennon's desire to do more with his music, using it as a political platform to shake things up. I may be over-thinking the last part, but you never know..
Here comes Johnny singing oldies, goldies "Be-Bop-A-Lula, " "Baby What I Say" Here comes Johnny singing, "I Gotta Woman" Down in the tunnels, trying to make it pay He got the action, he got the motion Oh yeah, the boy can play Dedication, devotion Turning all the night time into the day He do the song about the sweet lovin' woman He do the song about the knife He do the walk, do the walk of life Yeah, he do the walk of life Woohoo Here comes Johnny, gonna tell you the story Hand me down my walkin' shoes Here comes Johnny with the power and the glory Backbeat the talkin' blues He got the action, he got the motion Yeah, the boy can play Dedication, devotion Turning all the night time into the day The song about the sweet lovin' woman He do the song about the knife Then he do the walk, do the walk of life Yeah, he do the walk of life Woohoo-hoo Here comes Johnny singing oldies, goldies "Be-Bop-A-Lula, " "Baby What I Say" Here comes Johnny singing, "I Gotta Woman" Down in the tunnels, trying to make it pay He got the action, he got the motion Oh yeah, the boy can play Dedication, devotion Turning all the night time into the day And after all the violence and double talk There's just a song in all the trouble and the strife You do the walk, yeah, you do the walk of life Hmm, they do the walk of life

Mark Knopfler : Yesterday, Today and Forever the Best
Oh yeah!
A far better video than the horrible sports one.
Hear hear! Actually relates to the lyrics and it has a dash of humour in it, rather than completely unrelated clips of American sports.
Just got Dire Straits vinyl for father's day as a gift. Bragging :D
All I needed is this ❤️
Gracias por Compartir
I really wish I could bring those days back. Would not make the same mistakes. DS made my life easier. Life was so good then. Bring them back.
Grazie ! what a surprise!❤️
Salve do Brasil!!!

Here comes Johnny singing oldies, goldies
"Be-Bop-A-Lula, " "Baby What I Say"
Here comes Johnny singing, "I Gotta Woman"
Down in the tunnels, trying to make it pay
He got the action, he got the motion
Oh yeah, the boy can play
Dedication, devotion
Turning all the night time into the day
He do the song about the sweet lovin' woman
He do the song about the knife
He do the walk, do the walk of life
Yeah, he do the walk of life
Woohoo
Here comes Johnny, gonna tell you the story
Hand me down my walkin' shoes
Here comes Johnny with the power and the glory
Backbeat the talkin' blues
He got the action, he got the motion
Yeah, the boy can play
Dedication, devotion
Turning all the night time into the day
The song about the sweet lovin' woman
He do the song about the knife
Then he do the walk, do the walk of life
Yeah, he do the walk of life
Woohoo-hoo
Here comes Johnny singing oldies, goldies
"Be-Bop-A-Lula, " "Baby What I Say"
Here comes Johnny singing, "I Gotta Woman"
Down in the tunnels, trying to make it pay
He got the action, he got the motion
Oh yeah, the boy can play
Dedication, devotion
Turning all the night time into the day
And after all the violence and double talk
There's just a song in all the trouble and the strife
You do the walk, yeah, you do the walk of life
Hmm, they do the walk of life
