Mark Knopfler's compositions, like "Romeo & Juliet" have the depth normally not seen outside of opera. He weaves rhythmic streams that slowly build emotional tension that boldly become passionate. The lyrics, simply and gracefully build several more layers enabling one to imagine the song from the POV of not only Romeo but also Juliet and at times them both together. I identify this song's pain, joy, lament, and hope with every great love I have had and ever will have. Very few others....
Paisley...You are not alone...I have tears in my eyes every time I hear this song...Knopfler is my all time favorite song writer, story-teller, guitarist, singer...he is a musical genius...
Just can't stop listenig,this song like all the songs that these two masters perform,is simply magnificent,there's so much beauty in the way they sing,it's so nice.love it:)
this is back when music meant to be felt. Love this stuff. Mark Knopfler is simply a god of music. I mean really!!! Just feel it. You will not find this kind of "music" today. Really listen to this. Not just the words but the music. Beautiful!!!
While plastic surgery can improve looks, the vocal cords of lady Harris is a gift shared with us. I have purchased her albums through the years not for her wealth, but mine.
Mark you're a real guitarist - you have it all.My main lead man. Cant stop listening to your guitar works. Your guitar works gives me an energy to carry on with life. Its great to have you around.
I really appreciate this song. lines like 'I can't do everything, but I'll do anything for you' is true, humble..honest, that is Love. That is much better than other people offering nothing but Jewellery and flowers etc. You want love? It ain't in the gifts or the promises, it's in their heart and yours. you can just tell, We can really relate to these lyrics. However, all the feelings about love are easy to muster, easy to feel... yet literally impossible to explain. You can only feel it.
Had the wonderful opportunity to Mark with my then 15 year old son, (who insisted we go) and had a wonderful time. What beautiful music this man has written.
Love, love this song. Loved Dire Straights, but nothing compares to his solo work. Love you today more than the 80s. Re-play your songs over. Nothing compares to your masterful art of playing the guitar!!!
No one can do so much with a relatively simple chord progression than MK. He is the greatest with a guitar and songwriting in my opinion. What a talent!
mio mark,riesci sempre a farmi commuovere sempre di piu'e piu'passano gli anni piu' mi entra nell'anima fino a farmi male. dedico questa unica romeo and juliet , a mia mogile con lo stesso sentimento
I can't explain it - no rhyme or reason to it but there has always been something about this song, his voice, and this story that has often brought me to tears b/c it's so beautiful but on a level that many never understand though I think you're one of those that "get it." I'd also give anything for a fraction of his ability to write music/lyrics. It's like these yrs - songs all had meaning & today, much of the music is simply noise.
Looks like Emmy Lou has aged well. I saw her back in the '70s when she played the Boarding House in San Francisco. I'd never heard of her till then. Fine lady and a great artist, glad to see she is still going strong. Dire Straits I came on them late but loved'em all the same. I wore out the casset driving 150 miles from home to Dallas, Texas and back late at night. I first heard their Brothers in Arms song in the Azores on a video juke box. great stuff. This Romeo tune is most excellent also.
I like a girl so much and am kind of afraid to ask her out!!! but this song gave me inspiration..imma ask her out tomorrow after class......:) thanks Mark....:)
Romeo e Giulietta, miei compatrioti, sono tornati a Verona nelle bellissime note e nel talento di Mark, ed è bello sapere che il loro pensiero non si è perso, che l'amore della storia di questi due sciagurati, resta nel cuore e nel sentimento della gente.
take care all.... you can let go of deafault... we are all Beaautiful Beyond Belief parts of the creations.... let's bring it into the everyday.... thanks, Graciella Sierra
Thank You! hahahah!!... what i mean is exactly what you are saying he is not young anymore...what i wish if he is young still we could hear some more and more music and composition from him.
They were on tour together, and each did some solos. I saw them in Boston, and Emmylou said she was playing "folk guitar 101". Mark said, "I must be doing all right if I have Emmylou Harris in my backup band."
Wish I had a fifth and Emmy Lou... And Mr. K. hacked MTV when most needed and stayed true to his calling with some great rock and roll and brilliant guitar riffs all over the world all these years, wow man.

Listening to this gives me chills down my spine . Simply Amazing
Great song. Takes on a whole different feel with Mark's older voice.
this is back when music meant to be felt. Love this stuff. Mark Knopfler is simply a god of music. I mean really!!! Just feel it. You will not find this kind of "music" today. Really listen to this. Not just the words but the music. Beautiful!!!
I can't get over how good Emmy Lou still looks! I think she is getting more beautiful with each passing day. And the voice of an angel! ♡♡♡
Lucas McCain yeah, huh?
+Ray Unseitig yeah huh what?
+Lucas McCain That was Frank Rizzo talking….not Ray Unseitig!
She got money...
While plastic surgery can improve looks, the vocal cords of lady Harris is a gift shared with us. I have purchased her albums through the years not for her wealth, but mine.
"Ya know I used to have a scene with him". Beautiful.
Listening to this for the nth time, I still get goose bumps.
+billieredsocks millionth
How could anyone not like this - it makes me cry every time.
This is one of the greatest songs ever written. Thank you Mark Knopfler it is just beautiful.
RIP my romeo missing you everyday until we meet again...x💔
great audio quality. really good version of this song. thanks for posting
Fotographia bellíssima!!!!!
Mark you're a real guitarist - you have it all.My main lead man. Cant stop listening to your guitar works. Your guitar works gives me an energy to carry on with life. Its great to have you around.
This gives me chills. Such beauty.
That's who he reminds me of!! Thanks! He and Dylan are both phenomenal lyricists too.
Exquisite ... nothing less ... Mark Knopfler ...
I don't think I'll ever get tired of that guitar riff
I really appreciate this song. lines like 'I can't do everything, but I'll do anything for you' is true, humble..honest, that is Love. That is much better than other people offering nothing but Jewellery and flowers etc. You want love?

Mark Knopfler is getting old. I'm getting old. I remember playing the album Making Movies when I was in college in 1982.
è stato come ricevere un Regalo, grazie ancora
Take one voice, not perfect but extremely passionate, lyrics as deep as the ocean, and amazing guitar, you have the recipe for tears.
I could not agree more, his writing abilities along with his outstanding guitar work are so easy get lost in.
god,this guy sounds effen great. i cant believe this is live.Great post.
He has such a great, strong voice on this version. I love it!!!!
Emmy Lou et moi avons la meme date de naissance : les meilleurs ! et c'est bien elle est belle et de les entendre (avec Mark ) c'est formidable
Had the wonderful opportunity to Mark with my then 15 year old son, (who insisted we go) and had a wonderful time. What beautiful music this man has written.
Dear Mark, thank you very much for let me feel alive with you music. And you Emmylou all my love for the eternity. God bless you both.
Czapki z głów, geniusz gitary....sama przyjemność wysłuchać takich utworów .....
Love, love this song. Loved Dire Straights, but nothing compares to his solo work. Love you today more than the 80s. Re-play your songs over. Nothing compares to your masterful art of playing the guitar!!!
to my late wife-KATHY-I miss you badly-GOD BLESS...
God bless you 😍
''the stars above' thanks for sharing them with us babe.
best love song ever. casting love aside the guitar speaks. this is what being human means.
Amazing...simply amazing...work of a musical genius!
I love this song!!!!
Still the best song. Ever .
the gutsy genius whose playing transcends his music to reveal soul, our soul, all of ours.
No one can do so much with a relatively simple chord progression than MK. He is the greatest with a guitar and songwriting in my opinion. What a talent!
Simply - Wonderful ! - Dam ! But where Is Emmylou in this version?...
Awsome pic of two huge and amazing artists
Awesome song Mark!!:)
