Guest Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 Okay so these past 2/3 weeks i've been listening to the Dire Straits non-stop (as Yamisonic has noticed ). The 'Brothers in Arms' album is awesome, my favourite song is Your Latest Trick but i also like 'Why Worry', 'Money for Nothing' and all the others.I've also heard the album Making Movies and i think 'Romeo and Juliet' is a great song.So yeah this is an appreciation thread to the Dire Straits. You guys rock! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yamisonic Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 Greaat band. I should get Brothers In Arms though.I like most of their hits. Your Latest Trick and Sultans Of Swing are my favourites. Sultans Of Swing is one of the few songs that changed my life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yamisonic Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 the guitar on sultans of swing is actually unbelievable. i hate to say it but had gnr ever done a piece of guitar that good?<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Well, it isn't very hard (except for the parts where Knopfler goes completely insane and plays the same riff like seven times in two seconds or something), but it's my favourite guitar song ever.
