Dire Straits - On Every Street
Dire Straits - On Every Street
Dire Straits - On Every Street
There's gotta be a record of you some place
You gotta be on somebody's books
The lowdown - a picture of your face
Your injured looks
The sacred and profane
The pleasure and the pain
Somewhere your fingerprints remain concrete
And it's your face I'm looking for on every street
A ladykiller - regulation tattoo
Silver spurs on his heels
Says - what can I tell you as I'm standing next to you
She threw herself under my wheels
Oh it's a dangerous road
And a hazardous load
And the fireworks over liberty expode in the heat
And it's your face I'm looking for on every street
A three-chord symphony crashes into space
The moon is hanging upside down
I don't know why it is I'm still on the case
It's a ravenous town
And you still refuse to be traced
Seems to me such a waste
And every victory has a taste that's bittersweet
And it's your face I'm looking for on every street

Rolling through the desert on a 2 lane. Windows down at night. This song cranked up.

[@ubastards631]

Yes

[@LakiMihailovic]

♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@dannilaser16]

Hell yeah!

[@hzizedhd6957]

The best song to listen when I’m on lsd

[@dannilaser16]

@@hzizedhd6957 awesome dude double up. Have some for me.

[@po0rix]

shame we can't find such marvellous music these days, will love this one for ever

[@doctorfeinstone6524]

You can. Turn off the radio and look for it. All genres are still alive

[@TheEhsanH]

You are right

[@telegraph2581]

Everyone loves this song for the outro... for me it's all about the lyrics and simple yet beautiful melody of the verses... absolutely sublime.

[@NoName-zs2zs]

Same man! Though that's not to say that the outro isn't awesome. But yeah, the tune and lyrics are what make this song amazing for me.

[@jackthatmonkey8994]

The entire song would not be what it is without either part

[@robsongremio]

Especially the lines about the fingerprints and refusal to be traced

[@gerrithoevers]

Been a fan of dire straits since I was 5 years old. Hands down, to me anyway this is the best song they ever made. Every single part of it.

[@johnconboy8052]

[@zoomboost]

"you're about to witness some of the greatest music ever created on instruments", that's my exact thought!

[@francoishynes7739]

You write (speak) the absolute TRUTH Zoomboost!!! P.S. I hope you have been able to hear this MASTERPIECE through a pair of high quality headphones at some point in your life. Sincerely, François P.S.S. Iron Hand by Mark Knopfler, is yet another Masterpiece that I hope you are familiar with, due to its obscurity..

[@viniciussurkamp6633]

I witnessed it so many times I lost count.

[@ramseiergauvain3647]

Philosophy of the song: - wait until the music realy starts at 2:55 - jump in another dimension at 3:39 - rewind when you are at 4:55

[@deityzero]

Mark's solo that finishes the song at 2:55 is one of the most powerful and beautiful things you will ever hear in music.

[@alexandergeorge77]

One of Dire Straits best music. Especially the last part of the song where only the instruments are being played. Beautiful piece of work.

[@pantone108]

Alexander George Each time I listen to the outro, I shed tears. I wish the music never stops.

[@dannilaser16]

Agreed.

[@ericroberts7969]

Always reminds me of the girl i never got !

[@jfv8144]

me too mate ! thks for finding that sentence.................jfv

[@Sodom1611]

[@manuelgonzalocastillo3335]

Still think about the girl I never got now days

[@radovanpetrovic8569]

Mi too😢

[@joshuajararuse4114]

8 years ago, December 02/2012, I lost my best friend to brain cancer. This was his favorite song.

[@chrystalmcatee6224]

I woke up this morning to this song in my head. My boyfriend loved this song but everytime he played it, it made me so sad. We were together together for 21 years. He just died a month and a half ago on February 7th. He wasn't even sick, something just happened to his heart. Now it's his face I've been looking for, on every street. 😥💔

[@1Galacticweek]

It's the jab...

[@lotfikhalil6164]

Sorry for your lost Chrystal, my sincere condolences, truly the power of music make us live on and on, it's kinda magic

[@marcusorillious8339]

GODSPEED!

[@ericroberts7969]

The same has happened to me I am listening to this song now after losing my wife of 45 years to MND >I look for her where ever i go ?

[@nahuelfunes]

This outro is everything....

[@DudemeisterNL]

All the tears I cried to this song and all the smiles I gave to this song. So many memories and feelings all coming together. Amazing

[@zacatecas2002]

This is an impossibly beautiful song. It's like a poem set to music.

[@willritter4076]

I'd be honored if some Dire Straits fans would give a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performance of ON EVERY STREET on my YT channel in tribute to the genius songwriting of Mark Knopfler. Live acoustic with no autotune or digital enhancements. Thanks and RESPECT to the legends.

[@Mekratrig]

A man wishes he knew why the end of this song brings tears, just the same refrain ovar and ovar, and yet...and yet... something poignant and powerful in the buildup, a man wondars what has this song done to him???

[@SoniaMaria-dy5ug]

Priceless... wordless.... Mark's modulation of all that wonderful velvet voice is simply touching great!!!🫠❤️

[@buddjonathan]

The best band ever,,,head phones on and ‘do not disturb’ sign around my neck.

[@Sunisrisin]

Passing ships in the night..... Unrequited love..... The person you see once in your life then never see again. ...

[@colinfisher9408]

For my dad ,died 2008-miss you pops❤️

[@GerardoC01]

Abbraccio!

[@elenhnikolakopoulou5737]

Colin Fisher stay strong, sending love!❤️

[@nathf4698]

One of the most beautiful songs ever! 2:55 onwards is pure bliss 👌🏻👌🏻

[@irinaphoenix2169]

Does anyone know if that concluding instrumental has ever been used in TV or film? Someone really should do - it would be so perfect for a montage of passing time, or a concluding scene of leaving now a house/town/relationship.

[@Frank.V.L.]

I think the same¡¡ Live version sounds even better, more deep and nostalgic...

[@Srikstar]

Yes..the final scenes of the last episode of "Six feet under" would be an amazing combo...

[@dannilaser16]

Would make an amazing ring tone!

[@kirawooton3226]

So Amazing! Never get tired. Keep coming back to this song. Since I was a kid.

[@irinaphoenix2169]

Kira Wooton me, too. My Dad and I used to listen to this all the time.

[@deadstickfpv]

this is whats real music should be like. it touches me in side out

[@viniciussurkamp6633]

2:54 "Você está prestes a presenciar uma das maiores músicas já criadas por instrumentos" Eu já presenciei tantas vezes que perdi a conta.

[@leostaehli6098]

Roses are red, Violets are fine. My house exploded At 3:39

[@charlottefarine4565]

mine too and I landed in space, filled with flying musical notes :P

[@CJ3B1]

Léo Staehli Hahahahaaaa.

[@vincentwitjes5106]

2:55 is it not?

[@szymonkunda2197]

Made my day😅😅😅

[@Brixxter]

This definitely is one of the most underrated songs ever

[@likethemapples3049]

The melancholy of the song reminds me of a lot of sad things and ineffable events......

[@TheDamnWalterWhite]

THIS, this is music Do you hear me Miley?!

[@NoName-zs2zs]

Hahaha! Yep, most of today's musicians could learn a thing or two from Dire Straits and Mark Knopfler.

[@chicocha8673]

at 0:22 it must be " the SACRED and profane"

[@ivankahol2892]

that was lectiness

[@catherinelorberter2537]

Reminds me of the man that never got me.

[@66meimei]

I LOVE DIRE STRAITS AND THEIR MUSIC!!! I LOVE YOU MARK KNOPFLER !!!!!!!!!!

[@МарияАндреева-я4ч]

[@TheCreasa]

I love his music, it more than just a song it is a bunch of colorful vibrations that touch deep in your soul

[@robertwood272]

this is the greatest song, hauntingly beautiful yet a sad undertone.

[@damme78]

A genuine guitar hero!!

[@benjamindehijarornelas4602]

just like someone else wrote somewhere on one of these chats. It´s one of the most underrated song ever, truly unique

[@Simão_Lopes]

Uma das melhores músicas dos Dire Straits On Every Street

[@stevestubbs9362]

when you state that... and I quote.. (you are about to witness some of the greatest music ever). I can only agree 100% my friend... this is just that :)

[@markknopfler3595]

Mark Knopfler can raise the calm in every one's mind with his voice

Lyrics:এটি আপনার মুখ, আমি প্রতিটি রাস্তায় খুঁজছি....... There's gotta be a record of you someplace You gotta be on somebody's books The lowdown, a picture of your face Your injured looks The sacred and profane The pleasure and the pain Somewhere your fingerprints remain concrete And it's your face, I'm looking for On every street A ladykiller, regulation tattoo Silver spurs on his heels Says, what can I tell you as I'm standing next to you She threw herself under my wheels Oh it's a dangerous road And a hazardous load And the fireworks over liberty explode in the heat And it's your face I'm looking for on every street A three-chord symphony crashes into space The moon is hanging upside down I don't know why it is I'm still on the case It's a ravenous town And you still refuse to be traced Seems to me such a waste And every victory has a taste that's bittersweet And it's your face I'm looking for on every street And it's your face I'm looking for on every street গানের কথা: কোথাও তোমার একটা রেকর্ড থাকতে হবে আপনি কারো বই হতে হবে নিচের দিকে, তোমার মুখের ছবি আপনার আহত চেহারা পবিত্র এবং অপবিত্র আনন্দ এবং বেদনা কোথাও আপনার আঙুলের ছাপ কংক্রিট থেকে যায় এবং এটা তোমার মুখ, আমি খুঁজছি প্রতিটি রাস্তায় একটি লেডিকিলার, রেগুলেশন ট্যাটু সিলভার তার হিল উপর spurs বলে, তোমার পাশে দাঁড়িয়ে আছি বলে কি বলব সে আমার চাকার নিচে নিজেকে নিক্ষেপ করে ওহ এটা একটা বিপজ্জনক রাস্তা এবং একটি বিপজ্জনক লোড এবং স্বাধীনতার উপর আতশবাজি গরমে বিস্ফোরিত হয় এবং এটি আপনার মুখ আমি প্রতিটি রাস্তায় খুঁজছি একটি তিন-কর্ড সিম্ফনি মহাকাশে বিধ্বস্ত হয় চাঁদ উল্টো ঝুলে আছে আমি জানি না কেন আমি এখনও মামলায় আছি এটা একটা ভয়ংকর শহর এবং আপনি এখনও ট্রেস করা অস্বীকার আমার কাছে এমন অপচয় মনে হয় এবং প্রতিটি বিজয়ের একটি স্বাদ আছে যা তিক্ত মিষ্টি এবং এটি আপনার মুখ আমি প্রতিটি রাস্তায় খুঁজছি এবং এটি আপনার মুখ আমি প্রতিটি রাস্তায় খুঁজছি

[@barbaramincinesi722]

BRIVIDIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

[@LL-sn9xu]

That’s quite an instrumental, always love that part of the song.

[@rayssamonroy]

Quando eu tinha 09 anos, meu pai me mostrou essa banda. É incrível como como a música atravessa o tempo, a idade, localização geográfica e até o idioma. A música é universal.

[@6380BAN]

Foi com essa idade que eu conheci a banda, num disco que um tio meu tinha, aquele chamado BROTHERS IN ARMS. Nunca mais larguei desse disco e nem do ON EVERY STREET.

[@aussiegirl8594]

One of my favourite songs ever... This song is for my daddy... i miss you so much... i know we will meet again when its my time to leave earth... 💛

[@Lasse3]

Music created by musicians that are playing on instruments, the instruments are not creating anything ;p

[@oobrocks]

A very good album, too

[@likethemapples3049]

Is there anyone to tell us yhe meaning of the song? Can't understund it tells about what?

[@minimal_Sonntag]

In my opinion, he´s looking for a woman he has lost and he waits for her to appear in the street.

[@mohamedkouadria2944]

The best song I've ever heard

[@sadicente]

caro jeff salutami bonzo mad keith e tutti i tamburellatori andati via con il vento

[@robinfleet7094]

Sublime.

[@777albo]

This song seems to pervade me, especially the lyrics, sems to me such a waste,,,,

[@nomerite]

So simple so beutiful reminds me of my wife 12 yrs anniversary just gone

[@lisaj2269]

I like how it's kind of a tale of almost a knight. Fighting to avenge a lady. "She threw herself under my wheels". With nothing but justice to gain. And he must endure and carry on - no matter what. And then the music at the end let's you recover from the story you just heard. Such an emotional rollercoaster song

[@viniciussurkamp6633]

I don't know why, but I see a link between this song and Jess Black from Far Cry 5.

[@ericineffible]

Thank you Mark Knopfler & Dire Straits, and thanks infinity paramount for the upload

[@nirajjani5012]

Wowwwwww... Why was I deprived of this gem. ❤

[@darkxabdel1333]

Adel Houdrouge : This is dire straits, this is " Music " !

[@amonchhetri1053]

[@davidjenkins6921]

Fantastic song, Knopfler and Dire Straits at there best - Thanks for the upload buddy :-)

[@graysonvirtue4058]

Roses are red, Violets are blue, When I listen to Dire Straits, My neighbours do too

[@ivanmay7890]

This song reminds me of the Law & Order theme music

[@bobpovey4957]

How can anyone dislike this they must have shit in their ears, a classic.

[@marcelacalderon4248]

[@BarbarianBill]

It is a song of a man who made love with a whore or prostitute and git attached to her emotionally.Tried to look for her again and failed to find.

[@soundpuppy1212]

The 150 people who disliked this song need to be brought back..to like it again

[@jejdu]

Yes, its true. One of the greatest song man made!! I LOVE IT !

[@raiversonkj7141]

My all time favorite. Forever

[@kyemagee1150]

Great song by a great band ♡

[@SoniaMaria-dy5ug]

It has no scenery or photos or special effects... nothing could change the fascinating and moving emotion that each verse sends shivers down my spine.... Mark's velvety voice sweeps me away... stunning melody and the harmony grows enormously and takes all the surrounding context in an overwhelming way...... sublime!...🫠🌹❤️🌻🎶

[@zinebnettaj7540]

This used to be my ex boyfriend's favorite song. I used to really hate it when he plays it in the car during our road trips. Now, and after more than 5 years of taking separate paths, i listen to it and enjoy every rythm, wondering if i'll ever find love again, cherishing those moments and praying he found happiness wherever that he is

[@alanbond9331]

Why does this song of thousands ,I ve listened to and Enjoy Floyd more - or Motown all -- why this -- / Maybe - its you am looking for on every street -- we searching all .

[@SoniaMaria-dy5ug]

The deep wail of Mark's guitar envelops my soul and drags it into a myriad of endless emotions... sweet feelings...🫠❤️

[@viniciussurkamp6633]

On Every Street é o pior álbum Dire Straits, e mesmo assim é excelente!!!

[@sandraferrington2159]

Your music never gets old to me 🥰

[@dannilaser16]

The only song I know that I could play over and over and not get tired of it.

[@simplekaur]

That's my all time favourite song. I wait for 3 . 10 and can't help but increase the volume ,, close my eyes .. and enjoy , I can't listen to it just once that's for sure . Heaven !

[@boogie404]

Outro-lyrics lies, music cannot be created by instruments. Instruments are tools. Human can write songs, maybe some animal like birds too :)

[@harisbaki]

This is way better every single song on Brothers in Arms except may be the titular song. Amazing...

[@backswan]

Thank's from France!

[@lisaj2269]

No offense intended- it would be somebody's. Not somebodies
