we stood with heads bowed in prayer while factors laid our cottages bare

My comment is several years too late but please get real. I'm a Mark Knopfler fan, and have the Local Hero album on vinyl from the day it was released. However, Mist Covered Mountains is a tune from circe 1856 (I have it in a book of bagpipe music printed in 1962). It must have been played on accordions for decades. Mark appears to join in for Going Home onwards (great, of course) but probably had little input on what had been played in Mist Covered Mountains for the previous 100+ years. Credit where credit is due, and here it is that he recognised a good tune to incorporate into the movie.

So, so, so very beautiful ...

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL

Misty covered mountains- Such a beautiful tune that was even played it at the late queens funeral .

Fun fact: the melody of Mist-Covered Mountains was composed as a modal variation of Oh, Dear, What Can the Matter Be?

This was such a nice surprise on that tour, as was "Father and Son" later on. I love how he weaves in his movie legacy.

awesome. always loved that tune on Screenplaying

my favorite singer....!sidi

Monstro, gênio.

check out john renbourn's version. absolutely, do it

if you don't like that you're clearly not human !

Newcastle Utd are underachievers great fans deserve a lot better probably fingers crossed they stay up fuck all else to play for shame

Better version than the bagpipes one!
