Spent my whole teenage and adult life listening to both these legends that moment i saw tears welling up in Brian's eyes i got a lump in my throat the size of a golf ball. For what they both have done for the music industry over all these decades they should be knighted by now , whose in agreement on this ? Sir Mark Knopfler and Sir Brian Johnson !!!
I agree with you about what they have done for the music industry...deep respect, but I don't agree about the knighthood.....All the great music in probably one of the greatest ages of music was against the establishment & I for one hope they don't become part of it.
Murray, he always gives me the feeling you could sit down and have a beer with him at a pub and you’d never feel like you were talking to a mega, mega rock star. But, like he was just another dude in there with nothing else to do but shoot the shit with you. Might be wrong about that, but I wouldn’t bet against it.
Brian is probably the best guy in the business. Humble, honest and you can see that he has an enormous heart. He's that old friend that you sit with him in a pub have pint and talk about anything and have a big laugh all night long. Cheers 🍻 mate.
Yes Brian feels the emotion in Mark’s music you see with this type of music it can touch the soul and pull at the heartstrings, But something like AC/DC’s type of music cannot do this it’s one style balls to the wall and nothing else...Music needs to have light and shade to fully give everyone the full package and Mark is a genius at doing just that 👍😀
His solo albums are the soundtrack for me sitting on the porch with my elderly father, having a Scotch together, and watching the sun set. And when I'm old, I hope my sons will do the same. That says something.
I watch this most days, when I need to reconnect with the good in myself… always moves me and makes me feel connected. Thank you Brian for reminding me 👍🏻🙏🏻
I have a bit of a list of musical heroes, he's in the top three no doubt, but Mark can't be categorised, he is such a unique genius... he heads his own list. No one talks to the listener the way he does.
Once again I am reminded of just how beautiful this world can be, when it chooses to let go and reveal itself. Made my day when I was feeling really low.
What this song radiates is the magnitude, importance and resonance of the universe's most vital energy - love. These guys connect due to it and through it. They've been there. This is what being authentic and living on purpose looks like. It might be fleeting, but it's there in Brian's eyes and Mark's chimes. If only you could bottle it, eh? Well done, Geordie Boys. You make The Toon proud. #Tyneemanation #worklove #WorkAesthetics #loveofyourart ❤️
I've been listening to you since I was born. My father used to put your records on every Sunday. 46 years have passed and now that father has become me and I listen to your music with my son. Your music will play forever.
I was crying even more than Mr. Johnson the first time I heard this song. I can't imagine how strong was listening this beautiful song played by Mr. Knopfler in front of you.
Finally, at almost 74 years old, people are getting to see a glimpse of what an amazing guy Brian is. Make no mistake, The Young brothers were a demanding, alpha, and controlling duo.... not just anyone could work with them for 40+ years. Brian has such an amazing personality that not only did he step in and take the place of Bon Scott (no small feat) but he's also been able to create a successful partnership with the Young family for now 41 years. Not just because of his vocal abilities, but just as importantly, for being a humble, great guy.
This is just incredible! I've watched this a dozen times and get a lump in my throat every time. Brian is so human for a guy with so much success and money. He's as down to earth as the people who grew up with. He feels life and he feels the music. Beautiful!
What a touching bond between these two--so happy to have stumbled upon this channel, though it doesn't look like Brian is producing new content. Two of my favorite guys here, simply fantastic.
Fans of both of these guys and when first video popped up, I thought an odd pairing. Watched more videos and they are heartwarming. First time I ever used that to describe anything and yet, only word which comes to mind.
I heard that song one night driving in a Montana blizzard, hoping they wouldn’t close the roads before I got back into Canada. I replayed it a dozen times. I think starving musicians and truck drivers have a special bond, because Mark has come up with a few that bring a tear to my eye.
An iconic singer ie Mark K is interviewed by another iconic singer Brian J.......wow a must listen for any music lover, I just love it. God Bless these guys.
Beautiful! Its just so refreshing to see these guys still able to perform, just class and skill right there. Thanks Mark and Brian. True gents of the music industry.
man this is so good! can't get enough of Brian Johnson's interviews. they're always genuine and you can tell the other artists really respect him. maybe he can get Knopfler and Gilmour together to play a few songs. i can't find anything with those two playing together, and i know there are a lot of people who'd want to see that. my personal 2 favorites
You know it’s a beautiful and pure moment when everybody talks about the man responding to the man playing, instead of the other way around. Very touching moment indeed.
It's absolutely touching seeing that persons who have been involved in music for more than 50 years still watching someone are playing live like charmed truly believing that magic just happens right now in front of them. That feeling is the real thing that makes a solid connection between generations. It's nothing but a drug that gathers people together strongly attacking pleasure center in the brain and when you see other people around who also are high from it, it's like breathing in a rainbow from both sides with a second person and meeting at rainbow's center and having soul dance)
For me, this is knopfler at his absolute best. Nothing fancy, just him, his guitar and that raspy ole voice that turns the most mundane lyrics into something melancholic yet beautiful.
Watch out...if you've ever had a lonely Christmas this song can drill a hole in your heart. I agree, Mark is one of the greatest guitarists of all time.
Stumbled upon (and instantly subscribed to) Brian’s channel for the first time late this afternoon... Two hours later and I can’t stop watching! Could listen to these two guys all night. Great stuff Brian!
Oh man, thats really touching. Two of the best, two monsters of music and rock in a pub totally down to earth. And i cant help it: such type of guys you only can find in england: greetings from germany.
Mark Knopfler's words and music married to his distinctive voice gives life to both of their careers. Each of them lions in music and their lives well spent giving joy to their audiences, now to one another.
Brought tears to this old hardasses eyes. I'm man enough to admit I've been on a similar journey when in the Army. No one hates war more than the soldier. For its we who kill and die. For what? This world today? F.U.B.A.R! Cheers Brian! From Utah. We've a long history AC/DC, Utah, Me but especially you mate. I was on the floor, I saw how very hard YOU tried to help. Ten years later Stuff Upper Lip, I was there. A friend is always just that.🍻🙏🤘✌
MK stay always the best guitarists the best songwriter the best singer with his lovely smile. He is fabulous in anything. I wake up with his music with a big smile😊😊. Thank you MK to bring lot of joy in our lives with your lovely music🎸🎸💞🎸💜🎸❤❤❤
