My only criticism of this song is that it comes to an end. Brilliant.
-
i know.... i know.... the guitar solos are amazing, but.... please ladies and gentlemen, pay attention to the fine bass playing on this song....
-
Such a a beautifully written and performed song… fluidity is the only word i can use to describe it.

Dire Straits è sinonimo di musica indimenticabile! Se poi la ascolti ai Caraibi guardando un tramonto... ragazzi, la perfezione! ❤
-
Arguably, one of the songs of all time.
-
Perfect riff, perfect harmony ,perfect guitar, perfect drums...one of the best rock song ever
-
I never noticed this before, but the entire song is like dueling guitar vs vocal. Line for line. You get a vocal line followed by a beautiful guitar rift.

Dire Straits Lyrics "Sultans Of Swing" 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 that music ring Well, now you step inside but you don't see too many faces Coming in out of the rain to hear the jazz go down Competition in other places Oh, but the horns, they're blowing that sound Way on down south, way on down south London town You check out guitar, George He knows all the chords Mind it's strictly rhythm He doesn't wanna make it cry or sing Left-handed 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 'n' Roll" And the Sultans, yeah, the Sultans, they play Creole, Creole And then the man, he steps right up to the microphone And says at last just as the time bell rings "Goodnight, now it's time to go home." Then he makes it fast with one more thing, "We are the Sultans, we are the Sultans of Swing."

One of the best songs of all time. Masterpiece of Mark and the boys. The Full Album is a Masterpiece in its own class. Set in the History of Rock.
-
Words can never really give this justice but ill try by saying its one of the most iconic rock masterpieces ever written & performed 🔥
-
Most of today's musicians, even very good ones, can't hold a candle to the sheer talent and genius of Mark Knopfler. A guy like this is born once a generation

I Just Can't Get Enough of this song
-
Calgary, Alberta, Canada !! 1984ish..!! Fabulous Band!!

Unglaublich, jeder Gitarrist liebt diesen Song.
-
All folk, I was there.1973. And saw 👍🏻 them in Atlanta. I am blessed 💕

Saw these guys in 70s. As a teenager. Might’ve been my very first Belfast gig. Were so obedient we didn’t even drink. But hey, we smoked. So exciting. Ulster Hall. Much persuading of parents for weeks beforehand.

Mark knows all the chords... The only song you will never get tired of listening to...

Sin duda alguna, uno de los músicos más completos del mundo, su punto más fuerte es la guitarra, éste tema es uno de los más representativos de ellos, muy ,muy grandes.
