#MarkKnopfler - เพลง
I was born in 1998 in Post-Soviet Ukraine, and my Dad (a self-taught guitarist and a huge fan of MK and Dire Straits who doesn't even speak English) bought a CD player around the same time. From day one I've been listening to Mark's voice, he's my third parent in a way. I'm 23 now, and every single song of his has accompanied my life in a special way. I still have rediscoveries with Mark's discography, every age seems to align with certain moods and sounds. I'm glad to see Mark come up with more and more music and I'm so grateful for it all. He evolves as a songwriter and helps me evolve as a person, too.
Thats awesome! I was lucky my friends father introduced met to dire straits when I was 12, back in 1996. He always said: good music must be played loud.
What do you think is Marks top three best songs at the moment? Greetings, Mark from The Netherlands
Cool man! I discovered him along with Zappa and Van Halen in 78.... I was 10. What a year! 🤘🤘
What the world needs, right now, is more Mark Knopfler music.
Mark knopfler...The best guitarist in the world!!!
Mark is truly a living legend. So humble in carrying out his purpose in life. God knows him well. Bravo!
I started listening to Mark's post Dire Straits stuff when I read the lyrics to Telegraph Road. Being from Michigan and having family from Toledo I wondered what would make an extremely talented and successful rocker from the British Isles write a song about a road between Detroit and Toledo? So I dug a little further and marveled at the stories, the history, and yes the unbelievable music that you get with his product. This revelation happened at the same time I started to get weary from another famous rocker who thought we were wanting sermons when we just wanted entertainment and songs....Suffice it to say that streaming and supporting Mark Knopfler is a value proposition and I always feel like I get the better end of the deal. I also find his work "fatigue proof" and every month when Tidal sends me my streaming recap there his mug is right out front. Where I hope it will stay for many years to come!
to say someone is THE best guitarist in the world is stupid. Mark is unique and a virtuoso, it's not a competition, he has his own unique style, one of my favorite guitarist today without a doubt, a great guy too. There are many "best guitarists in the world" :) many aren't alive anymore, amoung them the great Jeff Beck who's just left us.....
It is easier to be gracious when you are as jaw droppingly talented as Mark Knopfler.
I've been a Mark Knopfler fan since the first time I heard Dire Straits in my younger days ( I had teenagers in the house)...I'm 81 now and still get the chills listening to anything he does. Don't talk to me when he is 'on'. Fabulous guitarist, most fantastic musical artist. Thank you for this beautiful series.
Not every day you hear something like that
I love this. Don't talk to me when he is on, alright. I do accept a good home made dinner with loved ones when listening to his music though, be it Dire Staits or his latest albums.
Thank you for saying bitiful words like this i copy them to put on wall ,marc nofelots music com strayt from the heven. I love it very much.
Same here ❤
Me too... Iam 52 and I hear the songs with the same emotion...
Without a doubt Mark is the finest guitar player there ever was. But for all his talent, he is a most humble man to express his talent.
Great guitarist, great songwriter, and humble!
Agreed, Mark is a Humble Soul, long may he and his bandmates continue. I was born in Scotland 1943 close to where Mark was born was born. I love the way he has matured in a way that he is happy who he is. I have been a follower since Sultan' s of swing.
I drive 300km everyday and Mark is the only one who makes the drive bearable, sometimes I even look forward to sitting behind the wheel and playing Shangri la or one of his other albums
This your soul speaks bro.
Well said!
There Will never be another like him💖🌹💖i love his voice ❤⚘⚘❤🎸❤
Re MARKS GUITAR Documentary: Without a doubt the very best Music Artist Documentary ever made. Riveting and Compelling. Mark Knopfler is deserves the Title of Virtuoso. In my 60+years of playing and listening to all music genres, Mark has easily become my number one Guitar / Hero / Arranger / Producer of All Time. His splendid life story is equal to the Man and His myriad of talents and unique skill sets. Thank you Gentlemen for the superb journey back down memory lane, insight and creative inspiration. Truly the Best..!!! Mark YOU ARE THE MAN..!! Thanks..!
Shangri la !!!🎶meine Lieblingsscheibe von Mark Knopfler ein Traum 🎶⛵ wie mit einem Segelboot im Sonnenuntergang von dieser irischen Welt zu davon zu segeln✝️🙏🌹🍀♥️
All time phenomenal,, love and support from 🇮🇳 INDIA
I was listening to Our Shangri-La repeatedly for a month, moved by the depth of the power of living in the moment and the brevity of our lives that the song masterfully displays. I think it helped me love my wife a little more than I did before. You have blessed my life in many ways MK. Thank you
So cool 😎 l love this
Video WOW, great
MUSIC 🎶 Thank you for the writing. Thank you, everyone in the band and the
Sudio❤❤❤❤❤
🤘🌬❌️❌️❌️❌️❌️❌️
You make my life a better place to be ❤❤
He's so incredible and so humble about it and his song writing has just gotten better and better
A pure Artist with a great heart, a real living legend with such humbleness
Thank you Sir Knopfler
From Dallas, Texas, USA
Hugely talented musician, poet and a genius composer with a refreshingly small ego. Never tire of listening to his work.
Mark is the most seriously talented guitarist and songwriter of the last 40 years. As a songwriter myself and guitarist it’s a great mountain you climb as you start out. Of course for me Hendrix, Neil Young and Willie Nelson are the greatest singer/ guitarists ever, in the sense that they can write beautifully yet also express such profound sophistication in the way they just play the guitar. Mark is in the same category, as a great underrated guitar hero who is both literate and thoughtful. He is a master guitarist and songwriter, and gives me so much inspiration.
good guitarist, and a smart vocalist, never ever strains he's voice singing
Mark Knopfler brings out this terribly enormous desire in me of meeting someone and growing old together in a farm in Scotland, surrounded by nature, music, books, warm home gatherings with nice food and lovely people. Basically, warmth, to go with the ups and downs of life. And kindness and authenticity. So, yeah, someone to share this wonderful music with and kind of be embedded in that mood ♥
These words you make Maria very bitiful bring tears in my eyes, and tuch sole. Hope dream come true for your life in Scotland.
How sweet
@@freddykabulaschnitza2475 thank you so much! 🤗🤗🤗🤗 Hadn't read this before. Thanks, you're a sweet soul. Hope you're safe and well ❤️
All u guyz comments on these guyz playn just buzz me out because it's all in my heart 2 ,so uplifting 2 read so thanku everyone xx
Music that makes the heart beat in such a way that you're so happy to really Feel it❤️❤️☺️
Undoubtedly the greatest storyteller ever!
J'adore !Un grand merci MARK KNOPFLER ! Je TE SUIS RECONNAISSANT TOUJOURS ET POUR TOUJOURS !TU ES MON MUSICIEN PRÉFÉRÉ DE TOUS LES TEMPS ! Thank you !!!
I've always been enamored with Mark's work with Dire Straits, and there is no doubting whatsoever as to his musical abilities in every sense, but "Shangri-La" is by far my very favorite album of his, hands down. It's so warm and unpressured, yet full of another great and varied story with each successive track. I found it astounding to learn that a SCOTTISH musician had to tell the world in song, the real story behind the McDonald Brothers and Ray Kroc, and how it became one of the truly greatest AMERICAN success stories ever - I find that aspect mind-blowing! This fact is chronicled in the director's comments in the film "The Founder", with Michael Keaton playing the role of Ray Kroc like nobody else could. I just LOVED this documentary in how it took the time to allow us to see just how it was done, the other talented musicians that made it happen, and the remarkable chemistry that made the music come alive and yet flow so damn easily! Special kudos to the gentleman on the keyboards in "Everybody Pays", my very favorite song on the album - his special touch just really helps MAKE that song into one of the greatest of all time, IMHO - sends a shiver up my spine every time. Thanks Mark Knopfler for being you, and for sharing your awesome God-given gift with us all, while we're alive to enjoy it! Peace!
My "sultan of swing "! Mark Knopfler! 😊❤🎸🎵🎤🏴🇬🇧🇧🇷❤
Love this guy! Long may he produce! 🎸
Greatest artist off all time, still the best, older you get Mark, better you do your musician, better guitar, and better vocals as well!
I hope you all visited some of the nicer beaches like Corona Del Mar. Sounds like Cali drew some beautiful pieces of music out of you👍🌴🌊🎸💕
Mark seems so down to earth and humble, respectful, grateful. I really enjoyed the dialogue, such a great band and great tunes!
Those are some brilliant minds shooting the breeze. Enjoyed this documentary a lot...wished it was a feature film.
Quiet a story of a remarkable man!!
Thanks,you are a myth that deserves to be appreciated more and more
Legendary Mark. We wish u more life and blessings
Everybody pays to play...for sure....such brilliant musicians...you can tell they play off one another..awesome music...
Isn't it amazing that Mark is actualy a LEFT handed guy in his "civil" life.And he play guitar with right hand. Incredible. THAT can be only natural born genious. Which he definitely is.
MK you are more than only guitar player You Are good singer very good songwriter you're always give perfectly performer also your group there are also amazing MK you always make my day most of all I like your voice nobody can do what you doe you give me all in your music What I love thank you MK you and your group there are really marvelous keep good healthy everybody👍🎸❤💜🎸💖💟💜🎸💞
Have followed Mark and his music since I was young, playing his songs with my brothers. He’s a breath of fresh air. 👌🎼
My favorite record of mark’s solo career. Amazingly good!
The man has got a gift.
Pure genius of an artist. Love all your work, Mark!
Indeed..there are only a handful of musicians who are humble and down to earth. Mr. Knopfler is one of them..what a humble and brilliant musician!
@@nischaladhikari3906 why so many grate man from england come? Like George Herrisong and john lennin from Beatle?
I would do almost anything to get a 10 minute guitar lesson from Mark and hear his thoughts on what I've done so far.
Great documentary.
C'est Mark qui m'a donné envie de jouer de la guitare. Il joue comme personne et personne ne peut l'égaler... Pour moi, c'est le meilleur compositeur et joueur de guitare au monde. Je regrette de ne pas avoir eu l'opportunité de le voir sur scène à Paris. J'ai 51 ans et je joue tous les jours un morceau de Mark. K. MERCI
Mark you are a very special man!!! And your band is exceptionel!
Meu amor de fan por você é infinito...
🎸🎸🎸♥️🥰😁
A wonderful body of work for millions to enjoy. Keep 'em coming MK and Band.
We Know hes coming whit new great songs, just what i feel to, god bless is who like him mark knopfler
Love this record.
I was so lucky to saw Mark on his Shangri-La tour in 2005 (Ljubljana/Tivoli) It was out of this world literally mystical experience ! He is one of greatest guitarist, songwritter, producer, artist ever and for me greatest music inspiration :-)
I am loving the tributes for him as a person. This is the impression I get from his lyrics, a thoughtful, respectful man. You can't write the words he writes and be a jerk.
Mimi Speike quite agree with you. it is aĺl about the music with Mark. Dire Straits were huge but I always got the impression he was not that interested in being a super star...even tho he was. Some of the melodies he wrote will last forever..this albumn is beautiful.
Well said.
oh yes you can
@@daphnethurlow5388 i wish i made these bitiful words you make. Thanks very much mate.
I have looked for this everywhere! Is this the first time it has ever been shared? Of all MK's albums, Shangri-La was my least favorite. Then the movie about Ray Kroc started getting some attention, and I revisited the album and now I cannot take it off my player. Why did I ever think I didn't like it? Great stuff!
This has got to be my favorite MK record. Will watch this now!
shangri la gives me shivers every time i listen to it.. such feel !!
#Legend
my first guitar inflence !!

How fortunate you guys are. It's a true gift. Having musical conversations.
I love this man🎸🎶❤️
This album is brilliant.
Such an amazing guitarist ❤
My album favorite of Mark. How hard was it to say this.
Un genio della musica la sua musica è compagna per la VITA
THANK YOU VERY MUCH! WE REALLY PASSE THE DAYS SUCCESFULLY WITH YOUR SONGS!
Adorei esse documentário ele também ♥️🌹🌺🥂🇧🇷🇬🇧🎸🎁🍾🍷🥰
Great gang of souls....
'Mark style... Boom Like That...'🥁👍🎶🍻
O melhor guitarrista de todos os tempos...
I "liked" it before I even saw it all. I knew it was good. Thank you!
Thank you brother Mark for the retrospect. Your a winner in this life and the next.
Thank you for uploading this for free, this is the best channel ever.
A true artist, incredible guitarist!!! And a great person
Thank you for sharing this video. I have been listening to Shangrila almost every day for the last two months and it is such a pleasure in every possible way! My 2 1/2 year old grandson can't get enough of the Song for Sonny Liston..."more Sonny Liston!" We have listened to the song about 100 times now (and I am sure there are a couple hundred more times to come in the not too distant future). He has started to throw out lines from the song now and then. As a consequence I have spent hours thinking about the song and contemplating what makes it so great and I will have to say everything. It is an absolutely perfect song and very compelling story telling.
I agree...It is perfect.
Ironic, because I think it is one of the weakest points on the entire record ... even though the entire record is a 'classic album' in my view.
This record and `on every street` are my favorits😊
Quality and class.
I admire you very much, Love you Mark Knopfler ❤
Richard Bennett is a wonderful musician to work along side Mark. There are few guitarists out there with the pedigree and the experience he has. Love his musical skills. Guy Fletcher I believe can take a pack of cigarettes and make music with it. :)
Aren't we glad Mark didn't remain a journalist? You betcha!
Gina 1965 indeed. But we’re also glad he became a journalist in the first place which undoubtedly has helped him become such a great writer and critical thinker 😉
@dans h right on. Totally authentic.
@@Fanzindel very good point.
Loved watching this...and I love all of your Music.......I too rode the Waltzers at the Spanish city all those years ago :-)
Oh,l just love your music, l love your perception of Music❤❤ ,all of it and your mate's are extremely special too.thank you so so much for what you share with me. Yes, of course it's personal .l hear it in my heart ❤
Seems pretty humble ,regular guy love his tone
Bravo monsieur mark knopfler
I love all the Mark Knopfler documentaries. Wonderful viewing. So heart warming to see how all the guys respect him and value playing and recording together with him. All such excellent musicians.
I love Mark more than his own mother.
Gracias por acompañarme durante toda mi vida
Thanks for sharing this! I love this album so much!
Great music! Never quit listening to your .music. !!
Thanks a lot for this documentary that I haven't seen before!! I really am very fond of this Shangri-La album!!! And I love specially Postcards from Paraguay which is my favorite!!
Yes it's amazing with Postcards from Paraguay.... imagine what a hit it might have been if he'd written it in his Dire Straits days..... and so simple compared with a lot of his other works!
Postcards from Paraguay is my favorite, too. I love the feel of the song, and the instruments playing under Mark's voice sound great.
por ahora es mi album favorito♡ te amo mark!
Simply my guitar hero
Thanks for sharing this great video.
Fabulous documentary! Adds so much background to that fantastic solo album. First fell in love with the title track via the Real Live Roadrunning concert DVD/CD set. Set about working it out on my kid’s Strat. Love to play it, love to hear it. So many GREAT songs on this and all of MK’s albums. What else can be said about his musical genius and appeal that hasn’t already been said?
It is SO Gratifying to hear Many of Mark's Fans Inspirational Feelings we All get from all the Varied Facets of his Music. It is Even More Heartwarming to hear Mark's Thoughts and Philosophy about his Music. He makes US Feel we are his Friend. He is Such a Great Human and Soulful Being because he is Not Only a Musical GIANT and a Sensitive Lyrics Writer, but a Humble GENIUS. His Guitar and Lyrics Really strike a Chord (pardon the Pun) in Everyone's Soul! THANK YOU MARK FOR ENRICHING OUR LIVES WITH YOUR EVOCATIVE MUSIC!
Such a great record and film. More please.
Thanks for posting. Gets me out of my misery over the latest politics of the world.
Really? Even with "5:15am"?
Love you
i have been a mk music lover since 9 im now 53
