Not a very big fan of them but two of their songs, "So far away" and "Money for nothing" are among my favorite songs.

Yeah!!! They are great. Sultan of Swings is still a fav. eh.... Alchemy - Live is still the one of the fav. Albums.... babai, damn, what an awesome drums they play in that Alchemy live album... esp. the "Sultan of Swings" song.. eh... Guitar ko ta kurai nagarum... not a great fond of Mr. Knopfler when he picks up the mic tho... but he is one of the Guitar Gods. eh.. no doubt about that. :D

Oh I loved em! I don't think his (Mark Knopfler) solo acts were on par with his Dire S stuffs.

I_nepali bro, what's the humor in there? Hami ni sunam na.

IndisGuise:)

Nation Anthem: Used to start playing this song first while in rehearsal - those were the days....

You get a shiver in the dark
It's raining in the park but meantime
South of the river you stop and you hold everything
A band is blowing Dixie double four time
You feel alright when you hear the music ring

And now you step inside but you don't see too many faces
Coming in out of the rain you hear the jazz go down
Competition in other places
Oh but the horns they blowing that sound
Way on down south, way on down south London town

You check out Guitar George, he knows all the chords
Mind he's strictly rhythm he doesn't want to make it cry or sing
But then an old guitar is all he can afford
When he gets up under the lights to play his thing

And Harry doesn't mind if he doesn't make the scene
He's got a daytime job, he's doing alright
He can play the honky tonk like anything
Saving it up for Friday night
With the Sultans... with the Sultans of Swing

And a crowd of young boys they're fooling around in the corner
Drunk and dressed in their best brown baggies and their platform soles
They don't give a damn about any trumpet playing band
It ain't what they call rock and roll
And the Sultans... Yea the Sultans that play Creole ...Creole

And then the man steps right up to the microphone
And says at last just as the time bell rings
'Goodnight, now it's time to go home'
And he makes it fast with one more thing
'We are the Sultans... We are the Sultans of Swing'

My uncle was a big fan of Dire Straits. Because of him, I too became their fan. This was back in 80's. Perhaps because I listened to them way too much, now, I feel blah.... Thank God dire straits are no more.

ps-> just my opinion hai, please don't attack me, you crazy Dire Straits lunatics.

Sultan Of Swing... Mark Knopler, in this song showcases his unique style of guitar playing.

Brothers in Arms and Romeo & Juliet..are my 2 favorite ones. Back in I. Sc. days in College I, along with some friends, spent time listening to Dire Straits and Bob Dylan and going over every lyrics...instead of studying Physics, Chemistry....

Few years later in college in the US...I met this Pakistani student...who declared "There is Allah and there is Mark Knopfler."

And going to Mark Knopfler concert was one of the best experience of my life.

Btw, Mark Knopfler's last album was called Shangri-La.

I know there is typo error.Many others before you did not make any comment regarding the misspelling, I am sure they had realized it was typo error. Anyway, thank you for pointing out.
