Ein Film aus einer anderen Zeit. Ein Märchen. Über einen Oligarchen, dem es noch genügt hat, die Sterne nur zu beobachten – statt Raketen zum Mars zu schicken. In Schottland. Vielleicht der schönste Film, den Sie dieses Jahr gesehen haben werden. Mit Sicherheit ein lebenslänglicher Lieblingsfilm. (ARD, Wh.)

Mark Knopfler - Lights Of Taormina

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4pyWTF20cgM

"Private Dancer" is a song written by British musician #MarkKnopfler and recorded by singer #TinaTurner, first released in October 1984. The song was intended to be for Knopfler’s band #DireStraits, but was never fully recorded or released by the band. He ended up giving the song to Turner, with her recording being produced by #JohnCarter for her fifth solo album of the same name and released as the album's fifth single. In a fresh recording session.

I've loved Mark Knopfler since that late 70s night when a friend & I were mesmerized by a song we heard on his car radio: it was "Sultans of Swing" (Dire Straits)!

Nothing tops that first mind-blowing experience, but only it makes me doubt that "Why Aye Man" is Knopfler's best song.

It's the most elegant critique of Thatcherism I've heard, & beautiful to boot!

One more very tasty clip, classic guitar/rock - unfortunately on the un-tasty "X"....

But this accidental find has some real gems.

When I was 12yo, I didn't listen to

Heart-Shaped Box
https://song.link/at/i/1440859107

because I preferred Blümchen over Nirvana. I was madly in love with her, you could say

I know, I know, I guess your

Brothers in Arms - one of my fave #AntiWar songs from #DireStraits.

It's about bonds between soldiers on both sides of trenches during the #FalklandsWar.
#MarkKnopfler wrote the song in 1982, when the war happened. Falklands War was a conflict between #Argentina & #UnitedKingdom over islands off the coast of Argentina that each country claims rights to.

A new version of the song was released in 2007 by Knopfler in order to raise money to bring #veterans of the war back to the #Falklands as a way to treat their #PTSD.

Knopfler is one of my fave top 5 guitarists of all time 🎵🎸🎶 He is a brilliant songwriter too.

Lors de la première écoute du best of Dire Straits, j'ai pu entendre le morceau 🎶 "Going Home (Theme of The Local Hero)" (1983), que j'avais l'impression de connaître depuis des lustres, alors que je le découvrais vraisemblablement...
J'ai fini par retrouver d'où je le connaissais : une compile, des parents, de thèmes de films interprétés par le grand Gheorghe Zamfir ♥
