Dire Straits - You And Your Friend (REACTION) with my wife

[@charlesyateschalfant]

The guitar work, along with the tones he gets in this song, are among the best I've heard. Simply a masterpiece.

[@shivsays24]

That Pensa tone is all about emotions.💔💔💔💔💔. That deep tone touches and crushes your soul very badly. Knopfler is a phenomenon. He knows, the crowd knows that this would be soul stirring masterclass..

[@gillestemprement2060]

Quelle chanson!!! Quel toucher de cordes !!! Vibrato, glissando,fusion incroyable entre la voix et la guitare ! Quel slow à danser jusqu'au bout de la nuit!!!!

[@theobelauthe4636]

Mark Knopfler : The greatest rock guitarist songwriter of the 20th century . That's for sure!

[@julienmarquet8612]

😂HENDRIX IS THE GREATEST ONE, SORRY.....MARK IS THE POET OF GUITAR

[@pheasantplucker6117]

The guitar is his friend . Beautiful. The maestro.

[@Quicksilver51]

Can't stop commenting on this track ! Mark giving the pedal steel player his freedom while smiling at him, and he gets it! I think this tune even puts Brothers In Arms in the shade for emotion. Stunningly beautiful!

[@donepearce]

For fun he has the Strat. For romance he has (this one) the Pensa. For drama he has the Les Paul and for story telling the resonator. So many voices from one man.

[@timelessarrow]

Your interesting reactions prove that great music never dies. I've enjoyed listening to Dire Straits all my adult life (I'm 73), but I appreciate them more as I get older. I love your reactions which are always perceptive and humourous. Sensitive people always appreciate sensitive artists.

[@abdelkhaleqlaaouinate230]

Tanks you so match. nothing elle.

[@mikenorval6331]

The tone on that guitar is extraordinary.

[@davidmoon6096]

its heavenly.

[@charlesyateschalfant]

Agreed. One needs to borrow his fingers and heart though to get that sound. You have good taste!

[@simonashworth8825]

You both do fantastic reactions especially to Dire Straits and Mark Knopfler. . . Thank you! And I smile.when their music brings out a "bloody hell!" From you Dominika!!

[@gliebzeit]

RIP Jack Sonni ... Thank you for your reaction video to 'You and Your Friend'.

[@ekstradycja]

RIP however, no Jack Sonni here

[@marioandreacocco446]

❤❤❤❤Jack Sonni

[@lucianodarciliorodrigues9611]

Thank you,,, Luciano Brazil 🇧🇷🇧🇷

[@franciscohernandezsanchez5695]

Knopfler is the best ❤

[@MartinMcMartin]

Yes, Mark let's his guitar do the singing, and he narrates.

[@suetepeS]

From his solo work : Wherever I go (ft. Ruth Moody) absolutely wonderful.

[@agross12345]

In this particular song one needs to hear the studio version for the dialogue between the guitars. Exceptional!!!

[@anderspettersson9885]

It's one of those songs that gets better every time you hear it!

[@musashimiyamoto586]

Still haven't done "Where do you think you're going". It is bit like this one, but faster, and brilliant, naturally.

[@neiledwards6531]

sooner or later everyone will realise Mark Knopfler was and is a one off, simply beauty and originality at his fingertips. Legend

[@WassPogoreloff]

The guitar here is Pensa MK1 (Mark Knopfler 1). Mark was "a bit tired of all the guitar changes for every song". Mark asked his old friend Rudy Pensa to design a guitar, that sounds like Gibson and Stratocaster combined, with Strat's usability. It was designed on a napkin in a NYC coffee shop. Still available Made-to-Order now for order with several years waiting list.

[@simonettamilani3567]

La miglior versione live di questa splendida canzone. Fantastica!!!❤

[@Quicksilver51]

Behave yourself Dominika! "Wish you were on your own". Poor Andre! Lovely couple, you give me joy every time you post a new video. Bless your hearts.

[@peterlewis5151]

Mark Knopfler and David Gilmour have been photographed at Mark's studio (British Grove) in London a few months ago. A collaboration would be wonderful!! Take care. I love your channel. C'est magnifique!!

[@musashimiyamoto586]

When I look at you enjoying another masterpiece of DS, it makes me insanely happy. Seeing two people experiencing the same utter joy as me is a great gift. Thanks so much.

[@SebTheFrenchGuy]

i was at that concert in 1992 in Nimes France . What a moment ! i still have the ticket !

[@TollGateAB]

Excellent choice!!

[@knopfleru]

"Love over gold" 😉

[@joaoroberto6080]

Meu sonho e ter condições de comprar um cruze e sair com essa canção

[@CyberBeep_kenshi]

An entire generation was conceived on this song 😂

[@foodsitiy4722]

Согласен

[@RideAcrossTheRiver]

When Knopfler turns the flat 6th to natural 6th at 9:46 .. sorry Bonamossa, you never did

[@frankiefourfingers6717]

Simply exquisite…like nectar in your ears

[@wrk9851]

The discovery of this reaction channel is such joy. It's more than the reaction, it's the interaction between you both. With each reaction your expressions be they voiced or facial emotes such truth and beauty of your souls. There is such intrigue in every look among you both. I hope that you always experience the joy you both bring here in life. My day is so much more when I find a moment in time to stop/drop by!

[@MerchantOfAlba]

Thank you so much for your kind words 💚

[@ulisollweck5144]

Mark Knopfler puts heart and soul into his music and makes the guitar sing like no other. ❤️🎸

[@danieleciprari9041]

May I suggest "Ride across the river" live in Sydney 1986? 😊 And, to check out some good stuff from the early years, also "Where do you think you're going" from Rockpalast live show in 1979

[@bydavidmitchell]

Yet another amazing Dire Straits song. Thanks again Scott for a great recommendation. I love the emotion Knopfler evokes in this song. He can make that Pensa sing. Keep up the great work ♥

[@musashimiyamoto586]

For me, this one actually has the guitar play closest to Brothers in Arms. Hauntingly brilliant!

[@julienmarquet8612]

Watch that last tour, in NÎMES, FRANCE, in the old romans ruins! IT'S MAGIC....😄✌️👍🌹Peace from France....

[@ravinderchauhan7255]

come on guys, plz do studio version next of this very song. It really is the best, this live version don't do enough justice

[@Mind-your-own-beeswax]

Oh shut up

[@stuartwhite24]

The guitar tone is great on this song like brothers in arms

[@xxFORDIExx]

Masterpiece. Added to the many others. What a sound.

[@LuciferPat]

Thanks for this reaction ❤! How I love this song!! I love so much!!! It's so touching, sexy, soft, deep... You have also to check the studio version that has a bit different final... Love you guys 🎉

[@cssodre]

"I'm a hungry man too!!!" lol

[@neillschwartz3418]

Wow - I had almost forgotten how great that song is.

[@bhaskarganguly9643]

This is one of my all time favourite Dire Straits songs.. from the absolutely brilliant "On Every Street" album..this is a very underrated song since it's not played as much as the band's other more popular numbers..this song matches the atmosphere and mood of the album: more personal, deep and inward looking..the singing and guitars are exquisite as always, the duet with the Pedal steel guitar is out of the world..the crescendo at the end takes you to another planet.. Thanks for reviewing this song..my personal suggestion would be for a reaction to the title song of this very album: "On Every Street"..and you can also check out a few of his brilliant solo numbers like "What it is", "Sailing to Philadelphia" and ofcourse "Book like That".

[@everestguy8850]

Another true story shared somewhere on KZbin: Guy discusses with a pro as to how to play like Mark Knopfler> Reaction:" Dude, we ALL want to play like Knopfler if we could"

[@tootz1950]

That guitar and voice is pure sex.

[@SashanMusArt]

Aaaaaw Dominica, a girl after my own heart, I’ve always found Mark, his singing guitar and his gorgeous voice incredibly sexy. I think a lot of false hope was taken from a recent photo of Mark and David G together. I believe the photo was taken by David’s wife when David was recording at Mark’s British Grove Studios, but never heard of any collaboration plans. But what do I know, just saying.

[@MinistryOfDarkness11]

Another great reaction guys. I second that suggestion of the song Wherever I Go from Marks solo album called Tracker featuring the gorgeous and angelic voice of Ruth Moody. When they sing together they really compliment each other. Also recommend the song called Just A Boy Away From Home from his album Down The Road Wherever. You'll find it hard to stop crying lol. R.I.P. Jack Sonni. guitarist with DS Brothers In Arms Tour🙏🙏🎸🎸

[@johnfallon3525]

#metoo!

[@gilbert7253]

Bonsoir les amis, Héllo de France Gilbert, regarder le live de wembley 1985 (Why Worri)une jolie Mélodie !!!😊😊😊😊

[@bugsyboy2840]

Couldn’t wait for you to do this one!! It’s the layers of guitar that me it special and the progression of the chords. I always interpreted this as about a man who finds his partner has been unfaithful and this is him confronting her. Check out ‘Where do you think you’re going’ if you can 🙂

[@CyberBeep_kenshi]

Love this song. Heavy fuel (if that's the title) is a bit of a funny song from them, an ode to the roadies :)

[@bwilliams463]

Country Hall-of-Famer John Anderson covered 'You And Your Friend,' and Knopfler came along to play guitar on the track. He also played guitar for Weird Al's 'Money For Nothing' spoof, 'Beverly Hillbillies.'

[@piggypiggypig1746]

Great reaction as always.

[@everestguy8850]

A true story shared somewhere on KZbin: " guy walks into music shop and asks if he can buy a pedal to make him sound like Mark Knopfler. Reaction: "dude, if i had one like that, I'd be a millionaire" ;-)

[@antonklekar9086]

also, the fact that You and Your Friend is preceded immediately by "When it Comes to You," [Album "On Every Street"] which is about a relationship falling apart in which Mark is at the receiving end of the bitterness, only reinforced the idea that You and Your Friend was about blatant two-timing....or perhaps, the destructive influence of another party (the "friend") on his loved one.

[@amaraljose4154]

Ok❤❤❤❤

[@stevebryant6483]

I love all of your reactions, but I especially like Dire Straits and Rush, I have been looking forward to this one. A "new" favorite!

[@musashimiyamoto586]

Hello, my favourite reactioneers. I am just texting to annoy and plead with you to not forget to attend to all of the great DS songs. So far you left out "Where do you think you are going" (The Rockpalast version is great cause Mark is so young still), "Espresso Love" (Alchemy), "Love over Gold" (there is an Alchemy version that is a bit of a collage but worth watching), "Why worry", "So far away" and maybe some that I cannot think of at the moment. Thanks and greetings to Romania

[@lotharkiermayer7445]

My Suggestion is "Why Worry" the Interpretation from Final Oz 1986 in Sydney! I hope you 'll do your reaction to this! It's one of my favourite!

[@justoalias]

You should react to Mark Knopfler's collaboration with Tom Jones, the song I feel like going home, the sound of the guitar in that song is very emotional.

[@patverum9051]

Mark Knopfler is left-handed, but plays a standard guitar, so he forms the chords with his strongest hand.

[@antonklekar9086]

I know a lot of people think this song is about a 3some, but this never occurred to me at all the first time I heard it. I heard the CD version first, and the way Mark made his guitar cry, and I do mean really CRY in the solo, made me think this song was more about a loved one two-timing him, and 2-timing quite blatantly; and the song was about the death of the love he had with this loved one. Anyway, that's my take; but, as I say, I heard the studio version first on which Mark induces the crying sound out of the instrument more lucidly than on this live version.

[@IsmailMeskine-w1j]

Einfach wunderbar

[@dylanner]

please listen brother in arms live in mandela concert 1988, best version forever!!!

[@Jesusistheway5724]

Lovely reaction❤ One of my favourite songs by them. You definitely should check out Neverland (live '09) by Marillion now ❣️❣️❣️ please 🙏. If you like DS and PF, you sure love Marillion!! Steve Rothery, the 🎸player, is often compared to David Gilmour (PF), so then you know he is good and also delivers emotional solos. But I must warn you: once you've fallen in love with this band, there's no turning back...

[@spartakdauti9783]

Andrei left eye reaction at minute 2.00 says it all..............

[@robertogallego7796]

Recuerdo una entrevista a Knopfler,le preguntaron por el sonido de su guitarra, él contestó que, siempre ha sido muy humilde hasta donde sé,como canta mal y no es un buen letrista utiliza la guitarra para transmitir lo que no es capaz de decir con palabras... creo lo ha demostrado siempre, enhorabuena,lo hacéis muy bonito, como viejo seguidor de dire straits disfruto cuando alguien lo descubre y lo transmite tan bien,mi idioma inglés es muy limitado pero entiendo muy bien lo que decís, por mis conocimientos básicos y porque conseguís transmitir esas emociones 🍻🍻

[@agross12345]

...and now Fade to Black...

[@domenicov_versus3789]

Check out Our Shangri-la live (Mark Knopfler with Emmylou Harris). It's a masterpiece and an authentic peace of art.

[@anderspettersson9885]

"Song for Sonny Liston" AVO Session, more Knopfler magic...

[@edwardr5051]

I get a kick out of you two..You so appreciate the music and though some things are foreign you pick up very quickly. A lot of westerners under-appreciate things and I feel in good company watching you react. Don't take this wrong- but I had to chuckle at your title. Read it again and you'll laugh too

[@yakovnevsky7897]

Speaking of putting a spell on someone, I'd love to see your reaction on CCR's "I put a spell on you" - I'm sure you guys would love this live recording -> kzbin.info/www/bejne/rpa7oqewqth8i5Isi=tN1IkmFT_tRHEWSj

[@redtop1705]

You need to listen to Tunnel of Love Alchemy, live

[@frederickfranchi6408]

You guys are so funny, unfortunately I didn't get any of those feelings to me the song was just quite boring😮 let's face it they have a unique sound but sometimes it's repetitious but don't get me wrong I do love this band✌️

[@johnfallon3525]

Smouldering solo! Not a note out of place... There-are-just-so-many songs!!!

[@gilfinzi922]

YOU GUYS ARE GREAT, GIL FROM ISRAEL
