Wonderful voice. She sang beautifully about all of our suffering under oppression. But Mark Knopfler’s creation is a lesson on any voice you can think of. Thanks to both of them

When I was going to Vietnam, Joan was protesting, but with style. I loved the lady and the music, then , and she is still just as beautiful inside and out now, as then.

Insbesondere das Mitgefühl, was ihr dem Cellisten in Sarajevo ausgedruckt hat. Not und Leid hat sie nie zu Ihrem Vorteil genutzt, sondern immer der Hoffnung auf eine bessere Welt.

Joan looks and sings like an angel and one can only dream of the emotional impact this would have with Mark's guitar added on top. I'm truly grateful to have heard this.

This morning (12/25/16) I saw the ESPN 30 for 30 episode: Once Brothers about Yugoslavia, Serbo-Croatia. Vlade Divac and Drazen Petrovic. (I was a peace-time Russian linguist). So after the show, I went out to the lake for a cigarette. The first guy to walk by had a basketball jersey on. The 2nd guy was a Russian from Moscow. I could tell by his accent that he was almost for sure Slavic, so I asked him in Russian what country he was from. We spoke for a moment, enjoyed a good chuckle over a joke that one of my schoolmates had made about peace-time "spies". Peace.

This song is one of my favorites. And Joan Baez has one of the greatest voices I ever heard. That broughts me tears in my eyes even if I'm not sure to understand all the lyrics.

Ouvir essa música sozinho em um dia chuvoso com essa voz é se conecta com a verdade por alguns instantes.

She changed the lyric "we have just on world/but we live in different ones" to "why live in different ones?" Changes it from a simple observation to a challenge to mankind. Makes more sense, too.

This singer is in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, without ever a) singing rock n roll or b) having a hit of her own. Crazy world.

One of the great moments in my life was when I realized I was on the wrong side of that war. So was the other side.

Chapeau what a beautifull voice she has and this is music for ever.

Brothers in Arms always makes me cry. I'm a Para. Sergeant -( I WAS, then...) Nostalgia and they don't come any tougher than that, right? - but when I hear JOAN BAEZ sing - well, there you go. She is SO uncontrivedly SINCERE - she sings right into my heart. [Yes, contrary to popular belief, we DO HAVE HEARTS, O.K.?]

Shame on me. I didnt even know ,that „Brothers in arms „ was a song by Joan Baez. I only knew the version of Mark Knopfler. And i am a kid of the sixties and seventies music. But at that time , i wasn t really into singer-song writer music . I admit now : its a beautiful song from a beautiful voice. You always learn something new.

I wish they would release this album. It is very expensive if you can find one. It deserves to be heard more and again.

This is amazing. Such a talented lady.
