Dire Straits - Where Do You Think You're Going? (HQ audio)

[@sidhiqali5808]

Once one of my friend asked me why you always listening the old songs.he is a justin bieber kinda music guy. i asked him to sit, and i played this song. during the last guitar part he closed his eyes and i could see he is tightening his grips on the chair, his hands holding tight... then when the song was over i looked at him and i smiled; but he aint said a single word, nor he replied anything, no smiles nothing... then i told myself "hey Mark here is another guy for you, take him.." now he is a mark knopfler fan better than i do..

2:30 and forth is the perfect example of Dire Straits’ ability to not overdo anything, but still be able to create a damn good increase of intensity. I love this song. «Come on..»

This is definitely an underrated song of DS and I think that’s why I like it more. Last solo is phenomenal.

[@wuhanclan]

I think this entire album is underrated. The more I listen to their discography, the more this album grows on me. Whether it's one's favorite DS album or not, Communique is definitely the most groovy.

[@manoahvanderwolf3259]

The world wouldn't be the same without Mark Knopfler and the Dire Straits. it's sad to realize that there is going to be a day without him. thankfully, we can listen to this brilliant music even after. i have been a fan of the dire straits as long as i can remember and i'm NEVER ever tired of hearing it. This, is music. This, is creativity. This, is having a gift. NO autotune. NO computers. Just a man and his guitar. and indeed, lets not forget, the fantastic combo of the band members including that fantastic drummer. It's sad they aren't together anymore. And as good as Mark is and as fantastic his music, i still prefer the Dire Straits. In his solo albums, you can see Mark's 'yourney' with music and his creative capabilities. But in the Dire Straits, it's absolute perfection. Every. Single. Time.

[@GeorgeTel100]

[@milenivanov5436]

This masterpiece must be in my all time top 10 songs ever created! Since the first time I heard it as a teenager more than 30 years ago, it remains for me over there very, very high on Mount Rushmore among the all time greatest songs written and sung by legends!🎤🎤🎸🎸🎸💿📀💿📀

This is a beautifully composed song, with great guitar playing. Where Do You Think You’re Going? is a song of two halves, as it starts off relatively low-key, then turns more upbeat towards the end. Dire Straits were pretty much incomparable.
