My mam was from Medomsley Co Durham, and worked at Consett Steelworks for 3 and half years in the steelworks during WW2 driving a crane hauling tons of steel for the war effort, she then came south to London to be a volunteer auxiliary nurse helping the dying and severely injured servicemen evacuated from the liberation of Europe. She was the most beautiful woman I have ever or will ever meet, and I can see her tapping her foot to this while she knitted warm clothes for others.

I saw this in his hometown Newcastle then again in London’s O2 ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE made me cry both times 😍

I did Newcastle and Dublin on the last tour and may have had something in my eye as well when I thought it may be the last time I see him play live...

If there was any song that would symbolises Newcastle it would be this

ahaha love that he started by playing blaydon races on his guitar

man, that ending just grabs the soul....and doesn't let go.

Even the intro I didn't realise i was singing Blaydon Races in my head 😁 Took me right back to St John Vianney's jnr school Hartlepool were we taught about everything from music to how to grow cress out of cotton wool 😂

Listen to Milan Concert, Longer version and clean Absolutely epic !

Eternal love and music = Mark Knopfer,

Politics should always solv people's problems but..... not always so!!. Thatcherism an example critically composed/sung by Mark in this beautiful song..🌹🎶❣️

Im a Smoggie from a town a little south of Newcastle (Middlesbrough). Some of the best fellas I ever worked with were Geordies.....an excellent breed!! Anyroad.....this is ultimately a working class song, folk had to travel far and wide to earn a crust...from all parts of the country, still do. But never forget yer roots. If you asked a Geordie in Australia or Germany or America 'are you from Newcastle?'.......they wouldnt say yes....they'd say.......WHY AYE MAN!!😄
