Mark Knopfler & Emmylou Harris - Why Worry (Real Live Roadrunning | Official Live Video)

[@benbarclay5546]

Like, when he wrote this, years ago, he probably thought "good song, I like that", but never in his wildest, craziest dreams, would he have foreseen this night with Emmy Lou Harris laying it down like gospel. In front of her daughters, yet. This is why you dedicate your life to music.

I would play this song for my Wife way back in 1985.. It was the Second CD I purchased when CD Players came out.. This Song was Our Song then.. She is gone now.. I am still here today.. This Song now brings back so many memories and Feelings.. I cry now and think of her when I hear this song.. Today was no exception..

[@joe22589]

Greg Szeman hey dude, mark isn't underrated in any way. He belongs to the peers and all musicians name him as a world class musician - instrumental, singing, songwriting. How can you say he is underrated? Chet Atkins said that MK is one of the best around, so did Eric Clapton. He is in the Rolling Stone ranking - what else do you need?

[@cpharris41]

Joe & Greg: Mark Knopfler may not be underrated among fellow musicians, critics and the discerning public, but he does seem to have a fairly modest demeanour, avoiding self-promotion and not projecting a massive ego on the public consciousness the way some others do or have done. Perhaps that low-key persona is what you were getting at, Greg?

@@joe22589 I disagree, he is very rarely mentioned by guitar heads and other guitarists. I think they are honestly intimidated by him and his very honest and beautiful playing.

joe22589 Naming Rolling Stone as reference doesn’t prove or help in any way. Those “writers” and that magazine haven’t been relevant in 30 years.

Sometimes I wonder where Mark's got his melodies from ... they are so incredibly soul-touching. Long ago I heard people say that each melody man really could invent had been composed before somewhen in the past so that there couldn't be something quite new ... and how often has Mark taught us ... that exactly this ain't so ... man, I'm so glad to live in a time where music like Mark's is celebrated and risen to such an extreme level!
