But we live in different ones"
Mark Freuder Knopfler, OBE (born 12 August 1949) is a British singer, songwriter, guitarist, record producer and film score composer. He is best known as the lead guitarist, lead singer and songwriter for the rock band Dire Straits, which he co-founded with his younger brother, David Knopfler, in 1977. bron: Wikipedia.
Band members include: Mark Knopfler (lead vocals, lead guitar), John Illsley (bass, backing vocals), Alan Clark (keyboards), Guy Fletcher (keyboards, backing vocals), Danny Cummings (percussion, backing vocals), Paul Franklin (pedal steel guitar), Phil Palmer (rhythm guitar, backing vocals), Chris White (saxophone, flute, backing vocals), Chris Whitten (drums).
Opgericht in 1977, treffen we op YouTube deze heerlijke relaxte uitvoering aan van hun eerste optreden op TV in 1978: Dire Straits - 'Sultans Of Swing' (Old Grey Whistle Test, 16th May 1978)
Hier de indrukwekkende live uitvoering van 'Brothers in Arms' met The Dire Straits in London, On The Night 1993 (zie anders deze uitvoering in Berlijn uit 2007 of die uit 2009 in The Hurlington Club, London UK).
'Brothers In Arms' Dire Straits
These mist covered mountains
Are a home now for me
But my home is the lowlands
And always will be
Some day you'll return to
Your valleys and your farms
And you'll no longer burn
To be brothers in arms
Through these fields of destruction
Baptisms of fire
I've witnessed your suffering
As the battle raged higher
And though they did hurt me so bad
In the fear and alarm
You did not desert me
My brothers in arms
There's so many different worlds
So many differents suns
And we have just one world
But we live in different ones
Now the sun's gone to hell
The moon's riding high
Let me bid you farewell
Every man has to die
But it's written in the starlight
And every line in your palm
We were fools to make war
On our brothers in arms
But we live in different ones"
