    Does any one listen to dire straights?

    ive got a dvd here which is a tribute to my mate who died in iraq.
    its got "brothers in arms" playing at the end of the dvd.
    its well sad but a really nice song.

    i love brothers in arms now. it makes me close to tears when i hear it. the lyrics are top.

    apparently the song was written in memory of the drummers brother who was killed in the faulklands with 2para who my mate served for when he died in iraq

    ..Dire Straits.. terrific band and one of the greatest and most underrated guitarists ever - Mark Knopfler.
    Try their album "Love over Gold" and give a listen to "Telegraph Road" - IMHO one of the best rock tracks ever.Pay attention to the guitar work and tell me that Knopfler isnt as talented as Clapton!

    if u want sad songs, i think Ryan Adams is the king of that, imo he has the best voice live or any other kind, and his songs omg they just own
