Favorite Mark Knopfler song: Speedway at Nazareth. John But all of Dire Straits is damned good.

2. I would have to go with these three: |
|
"In the Gallery" and "Sultans of Swing" from the first album and "Industrial Disease" from Brothers In Arms.

I'll second Romeo and Juliet, especially the live recording from "On the Night." That version is just knockout great.

23. "Romeo and Juliet..." |
|
and all I do is miss you and the way we used to be and all I do is keep the beat with bad company and all I do is kiss you through the bars of a rhyme Julie I'd do the stars with you anytime
Still gives me chills and pangs of lost love...

11. Sultans of Swing here too -- but . . . |
|
. . . it might be because we played that first album to death. I never got any of their later stuff grooved into my head to the same degree.

Now here I am again in this mean old town, And you're so far away from me. Now where are you when the sun goes down, You're so far away from me.
You're so far away from me, So far I just can't see. You're so far away from me, You're so far away from me. Alright.
I'm tired of being in love and being all alone, When you're so far away from me. I'm tired of making out on the telephone, Cause you're so far away from me.
You're so far away from me, So far I just can't see. You're so far away from me, You're so far away from me. Alright.
And I get so tired when I have to explain, That you're so far away from me. See you've been in the sun and I've been in the rain, And you're so far away from me.
You're so far away from me, So far I just can't see. You're so far away from me, You're so far away from me. Check it out.
So far away. You're so far away from me. (You're so far.) Alright. (You're so far.) Yes, you're so far away from me. :loveya: :cry: :loveya: :cry: :loveya: :cry: :loveya: :cry: :loveya:
