First like. Then I watched 4 times and finally listened for the 5th time (let's not lie, we all did it). I love the song Sultans of Swing and the group Dire Straits, I like how you played it because it's hard to imitate Mark Knopfler. This is my first time commenting on Sophie and I have listened to a lot of videos. I subscribed to this channel a long time ago. Keep up the good songs from the last century.

I listened to your performances of Pink Floyd (Comfortably Numb), Guns N' Roses, Bon Jovi, The Beatles, Queen (Bohemian Rhapsody), AC/DC, Led Zeppelin... I would like to hear another Pink Floyd or Queen songs. Even though it's a different style of guitar playing, I think a lot of your followers would love to hear something from U2. Anyway thanks for the wonderful music.
Brilliant performance. It’s all too easy to forget the thousands of hours this lady has spent getting to this standard. Much respect.

I really liked that because her version was true to the music so I could hum along, but she took it to a whole new Sophie Lloyd level which I could hear all the time. So nice.
Possibly one of the best solos in history, and I saw them in concert 3 times. Well done luv. The spirit is alive. Thank you.
Those guitar licks were Knopfler-worthy even before the shredding, and that was awesome too. Great cover of one of my favorite songs.
Sophie - Thank you for your hard work and time to lay down this song. Every note and movement perfectly clean. Incredible. A true pleasure to experience your work. Thank You...!!!

My favorite part of this video is watching you become inmersed in the power of this song. It's one of the best things about music... the connection with emotion.
Super rendition of the BEST song ever written. Mark would be pleased with your version and pleasantly surprised at the talent shown here. Got my thumbs up straight away.
When you play a classic song like this, there are certain things you listen for from the original. Iconic licks for example. Your version of this song was spot on. Amazing job. You are beautiful and gifted on the guitar!!!
I love that song, that band is classic. Great job Sophie is a master.
Complete package here. Beauty n shredding them Sultans ❤️🇺🇸
You have a high talent. What a gift for music!!! Thanks to share to us, yours fans.🌹🌹🌹🎸👏👏👏
Men of culture, here we gather again to appreciate Dire Straits. Also, Mark Knopfler is one of my favorite guitarists and songwriters! I am pretty sure he would love this "shred version" of yours, especially since you never disappoint us fans and your smile always reels us all in.

I can't get enough of this song! It's my most listened to guitar solo ever since I discovered it a few days ago. I believe complex guitar solos like this are good for brain cells.
I used to listen to Dire Straits as a kid until my tape gave out. Sultans of Swing is a classic. I absolutely love this version you've given us. You stayed true to the original, but you also gave it a nice little twist with the shred. I echo what others have said. Mark Knopfler would be proud!

It's a very tight music and song. It sounds like a guitar track but when you see the sina drums version you realise how tight the persuasion was.
What a fantastic arrangement, and played to perfection as always! One of my favorites for sure. Thanks for continuing to share your talent, truly appreciated!
One of the most recognizable guitar riffs, love it, well done!
I keep coming back to this performance. Every note is just perfect.
Wonderful... wonderful... wonderful... one of my favourite songs and just so nice to hear it from you. Great talent. Thank you for your great music.🎉
Love this Sophie. My long since departed Dad & I were big Knopfler fans back in the day. Keeping the melody alive in 2023 & true to the original 🥰🥰 Stunning guitar paint job & love the hybrid picking 😁

Amazing work. such amazing technique
Absolutely awesome,amazing you have some skills..blown away!
OMG Sophie...I am going back to school now. You just gave me a lesson on how to spend the next months trying to perfecting your solo work with your interpretation. Thank you. If you see a spike in hits...it is me playing over and over and over..thanks
Phenomenal. As a 60 year old man that has heard that song many times she nailed it. I love watching her play and playing songs with her twist on them. She's very talented and her dedication shows.
Had to be heard to be believed. Flawless performance.
She's a pleasure to look at and a pleasure to listen to as well
wow she plays really well! Good clean lines, great precision, musicality, and dare I say, even joy. A pleasure to listen to and watch. I particularly enjoy the camera work on her fingering technique. Really gives me a deeper enjoyment of the music and her talent and hard work.
The cream always rises to the top....absolute phenomenal guitar player. Beautiful performance!
Wow! There're a lot of truly brilliant cover versions of this song on KZread, but this one's the best by a country mile😍

That's absolutely amazing. I just watched it for a second time, and again I had chills all over my body. Great job. You are truly gifted in ways I can't describe. The best way to describe it is ( it's everything I would want to see in any guitarist.)
Pleasing to both senses, ears and eyes absolutely stunning talent.
That song has at least 3 "typical/standard" songs in it's complexity. Sophie's brain must have several thousand more convolutions and synapses in than is typical to play it - perfectly. You are a majestic wonder, Ms. Lloyd. Doing these videos enables sooo many people to enjoy your masterful artistry.
