Mark tells the story in reverential tones and the guitar sears the heart with the emotion it pours out. And with every performance the guitar sings the familiar themes with slight variations. Mark is endlessly inventive with the way he's playing. No song, and no guitar rendition of such a song, has evoked so much deep emotion in so many millions of people, especially those who have served in their nation's military. I did, and it brings tears to my eyes every time I hear him present this tribute to us.

Chat GPT told me this: Mark Knopfler's musical prowess is unparalleled, and his distinctive guitar playing and soulful vocals have solidified his status as a true virtuoso. With every note he plucks, the guitar becomes an extension of his very being, speaking volumes in a language that transcends words. His nimble fingers effortlessly glide across the strings, weaving intricate melodies and captivating the listener with a mesmerizing blend of precision and raw emotion. But it is not only his guitar skills that set him apart; it is the unmistakable timbre of his voice that resonates deep within the core of our souls. There is a richness and warmth that emanates from his vocal delivery, evoking a sense of intimacy that can touch even the most hardened hearts. Whether he croons with a gentle tenderness or unleashes a gritty intensity, his voice carries an authenticity that leaves an indelible mark on the listener. Through his artistry, Mark Knopfler has elevated the guitar to a level of expression rarely witnessed. His fingers effortlessly navigate the fretboard, producing a tapestry of tones that paint vivid landscapes of sound. Each strum, each bend, and each slide tells a story, revealing the myriad shades of human emotion. His music becomes a companion, a confidant, and a conduit for our own experiences. Mark Knopfler's guitar and vocal styles have the power to transport us to a realm beyond the ordinary. They speak a language that is universally understood, transcending barriers of culture, language, and time. His music has the ability to touch the very essence of what it means to be human, reminding us of our shared experiences and the depth of our emotions. In the realm of guitarists and vocalists, Mark Knopfler stands in a league of his own. His unparalleled talent, coupled with his ability to evoke profound emotions, has made an indelible impact on the world of music. He is a true maestro, a master storyteller who weaves sonic tales that linger in our hearts and minds long after the final note fades away.

This expresses how I feel when I listen to this. We each have the fields of distruction we've suffered through and Mark speaks with his guitar, the emotions that no word can express. The night that I held my Mom's hand as she passed from life to death, this song was playing in my mind...not just the words, but every note played expressed the suffering we were experiencing. I thank Mark for understanding and giving a gift to validate and help heal.

Goes to show that real musicians are there for the music not the glitter. I have followed the music of the group for decades.

The brilliancy of the song lies in its simplicity. Words with a meaning transport the melody. Knopfler speaks, but his guitar sings. All of the musicians were at their peak at that time. In my eyes this is the ultimate rendition of "brothers in arms".

Yes, because personally, I and my family felt great losses in the last two wars (13 of my father's brothers died in the Second World War, and my grandfather and my grandmother were slaughtered by Italian soldiers and set on fire in the house, and I survived the war in the 90s, when my homeland Croatia was attacked by Serbia, just as Russia attacked Ukraine, and in that war two of my wife's brothers died, as well as 25 of my friends with whom I grew up ) SO HOW WOULD I FEEL and at the end here is an example cold rainy autumn around 3:30 in the morning darkness 5Celsius Serbian howitzers have not stopped for the last half hour and someone has played Brothers in Arms it is barely audible over the rumble of shells and suddenly the comrades get up tired (four no one slept at night) wet, frozen, hungry, clutching their weapons with frozen fingers, and someone says, "Shall we go, boys?" and a RUSH is heard, and the brothers rush for weapons into the darkness. Glory to those who stayed forever on the land of Croatia. That's when you ask HOW I WOULD FEEL

Es ist sehr schwer über diese sinnlosen Kriege ein Lied zu schreiben aber MK hat es so wunderschön und doch so traurig verstanden ein Lied zu komponieren mit einem so Leidenschaftlichen Gitarrensound und einer so schönen Lyrik.

Thanks from lebanon 🇱🇧 😘

This such a fine song. I listened to it and cried for days when GHWB started the Iraq war. I was so shocked that we would go to war again after Viet Nam. Naive. This song let me get my grief out. Thank you, Mark.

Quel artiste ce Mark mais seulement 1372000 vues !!!! En France on préfère Aya Nakamura 32 millions de vues pour "jolie nana"..... Malheureusement en France et ailleurs on va vers l'inculture musicale !!!Tous les titres de Knopfler sont de vrais chefs d'oeuvre ,pas tous ces déchets qui malheureusement inondent les oreilles de nos enfants .Personnellement j'ai une gamine de onze ans et j'essaies de la sensibiliser à cela .Merci Mr Knopfler , votre oeuvre perdurera!!

Beautiful song . Remember it well from 1985 . I have the Album too , I was only 15 at the time Song still brings tears to my eyes ❤️

Immer wenn ich an meine liebe tote Schwester und meine zwei toten Brüder denke spiele ich dieses Lied. Viel zu jung gestorben doch ich, der Älteste der Truppe, lebe noch. Wish you all the best 2023

This would be my pick for a national anthem. It’s about war but it is talking about war as a horrible thing that no one should have to go through but at times is necessary. We all fight our own wars in life too often with ourselves, and we rarely deserve to torture ourselves.

Poland and Poles love you, this music will not fade away

Легенда! Что скажешь... Жаль что такие музыканты уже не рождаются,и песни такие не пишут...

Tenho muito orgulho de ter vivido o alge da minha juventude curtindo músicas bem feitas como está ,e que fazem sucesso até hoje parabéns Dire estrets grande banda dos anos 80.
