Glad you got a chance to check this one out, I enjoyed your reaction. 👍 I recommended this official version so you could initially catch all the lyrics and appreciate the meaning and power of the song; now that you are familiar with it, you might enjoy watching a live/ concert version, because let's face it, Dire Straits' live performances -- and Mark's solos -- are always on a whole other level 😉!
There is so much great artistry in this song, and it is among my favorites. The lyrics, vocals, instrumentation, (especially the amazing guitar playing) tell a sad, beautiful, emotional, and powerful story. It's one of the few songs that get me choked up, and close to tears. I thought the graphics were great, and added to the song. Dire Straights are amazing talented. Great choice of song, and great reaction.
