For 50 years, I lived in a world of Shangri-La with my Bonnie until she was called by the Almighty to transcend above the blue sky. She now in a better place. This song reminds me how beautiful our life were from the first moments of our union until it ended with COVID. Each time I hear this song it takes me back to memories of dancing with an angel of such beauty. I will always love her and one day I will dance with her in our own Shangri-La💞💞💞💞

Monsieur Knopfler is like a good wine, the older it gets, the better it becomes. I have tasted it tasty, for years. Thank you Mr. Knopfler for the unique guitar sound.

[@cathylevin7273]

This song is one of the Hymns of My Life, which is a playlist that tells the story of my life. I originally put it there because it reminds me of my beloved Bonaire where my husband gave me the universe when he introduced me to scuba diving and where we regularly go. Watching the sun sink into the sea each night and a place where I am in tune with the stars and the joy that it brings us both. As I grow older, though, it reminds me that my whole life with my husband has been my own Shangri-la. Lucky me. Thank you, Mark Knopfler, for singing so many beautiful songs that are just perfect nuggets of history and life and beauty. Your music has been an integral part of my life for 40+ years.

Great to have a diving partner Cathy. I introduced my wife of 16 years to scuba 12 years ago and she's my go to buddy.

Listening to MK for 50 years. First time ive ever seen him use a pic. Listen to that.......wow.

[@SkeeterMcTavish]

This may be one of his greatest song performances ever. Every note, vocal, and interpretation is just so, so good. Listen to other live versions of this song to realize just how good this one is. Near perfection.

[@joandixon6233]

If you can make magic with music then Mark Knoffler has found the recipe. I have been a fan of Dire Straits and Marks solos for many, many years (I'm 68) seen the band live a few times and bought my son up to appreciate them but I really do think that this song has it all and more. Thank you so much Mr. Knoffler you brighten my days and are never predictable. Just love your music. 💖

There are a lot of professional artists out there. However, no one can compare to Mark. He is in a class all his own. His creative genius is matched by no one. Unbelievable music. I could listen to him for all eternity .

[@terfar5195]

Agree Indeed

[@ApocGuy]

i'd still put Gilmour one place higher than Mark. both are gods of music, so ranking doesnt matter anyway :) .

[@rpetrics]

@@ApocGuy Not even close. There are or either were a lot of great guitarists such as Stevie Ray Vaughn, Eric Clapton, Slash, Keith Richards, George Harrison, Don Felder, Chuck Berry, etc. But no one, and I mean no one can compare to Mark for melody, passion, feeling, etc. Tell me if you could listen to the others for the same amount of time without wanting a change of pace as you could Mark. In any event, each to his own opinion. I could listen to Mark without ever getting bored.
