12.01.11 | What's your favourite Dire Straits song? |
BigHans
12.01.11 | fuck yeah Tunnel of Love. 7 is my favorite.
WELL JULIET, WHEN WE MADE LOVE YOU USED TO CRY
I LOVE YOU LIKE THE STARS ABOVE, I LOVE YOU TILL I DIE! |
BigHans
12.01.11 | and dude Sultans of Swing is so boss |
CrisStyles
12.01.11 | 7 is one of the greatest songs ever. |
TheNotrap
12.01.11 | Indeed.
That song brings back good old memories :-)
Probably Knopfler's greatest solo. Amazing lead.
|
TheNotrap
12.01.11 | Private Investigations is my absolute fav. |
BigHans
12.01.11 | 7 sounds like something straight off of Dylan's Blood on the Tracks. Which is why I love it. |
Jethro42
12.01.11 | Yeah right, Sultans, Tunnel of Love and Romeo and Juliet are my top3, in no particular order. |
Jethro42
12.01.11 | There's so much win, phew. Great picks Notrap btw |
TheNotrap
12.01.11 | @Jethro
No love for Private Investigations or Brothers in Arms? |
BigHans
12.01.11 | I would definitely have made room for Lady Writer and possibly Skateaway but aside from that this list is ace. |
TheNotrap
12.01.11 | Thanks Hans.
We always leave something behind on a top 10. |
Jethro42
12.01.11 | yessss of course. Like I just edited, your picks are top notch. I used to cover So Far Away with a band. |
BigHans
12.01.11 | LADY WRITER ON THE TV |
crazyblinddude
12.01.11 | Damn... sick list. Love the band. But yeah probs Tunnel of Love. It's hard though. |
KILL
12.01.11 | rules |
BigHans
12.01.11 | live version of Tunnel of Love = sex |
Jethro42
12.01.11 | Hans, you speak the truth, man. |
Jethro42
12.01.11 | Especially ''live at the BBC'' version, Hans btw. Tunnel of Love live = the best Dire Straits track ever |
BigHans
12.01.11 | dude you should have put the Princess Bride on here I know its Knoeffler solo but song rules |
BigHans
12.01.11 | Tunnel of Love live = the best Dire Straits track ever
^ I would agree if I hadn't had a transcendent experience with Romeo and Juliet like 10 years ago |
TheNotrap
12.01.11 | Amazing live band.
@all dudes
Jethro is a very good drummer so I believe his cover of So Far Away was 5/5 |
Jethro42
12.01.11 | On The Night version obvs, Hans |
BigHans
12.01.11 | any version. |
Jethro42
12.01.11 | haha much thanks Notrap! Cheers. And yes, We had a lot of fun to cover it. I have some souvenirs of it on ...cassette =] |
TheNotrap
12.01.11 | It's impossible to match this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YD1APGofTSk
One of the greatest songs ever made. |
BigHans
12.01.11 | me, Notrap, Jethro, and Voivod are probably the only dudes on Sputnik that owned cassettes. m/ |
BigHans
12.01.11 | and Omni but he didn't metal so it doesn't count as much. Metal tapes >> all other tapes. |
TheNotrap
12.01.11 | hahahha
Old school guys, alive and kicking! |
Jethro42
12.01.11 | hahahaha you probably nailed it, Hans! m/ |
Jethro42
12.01.11 | Alive and kicking indeed! |
TheNotrap
12.01.11 | Jamming Private Investigations, On the Night version right now.
So damn good. |
BigHans
12.01.11 | I am proud to be the most massively immature of the old guys. Its not even close. |
TheNotrap
12.01.11 | Damn right Hans
m/ |
Jethro42
12.01.11 | Stay yourself, Hans. That's what matters. I'm also able to be massively immature still, here and there, if it can help you ;) |
BigHans
12.01.11 | m/ guys |
TheNotrap
12.01.11 | I work on Advertising/Marketing/Design so I need to keep always a young soul. |
JohnnyoftheWell
05.22.12 | 7, 8, 9, 10 are all great, I'd add It Never Rains, Hand in Hand and Expresso Love |

08.10.13 | Brothers in Arms is amazing live. Other than that, Love Over Gold is easily their best album overall for me. |
TheNotrap
08.10.13 | Brothers in Arms is my favourite but yeah Love Over Gold is also great. Private Investigations ending is *****. |
manosg
08.10.13 | Agreed hard. Private Investigations was also one of their first songs I listened and I was blown away. |
TheNotrap
08.10.13 | Yeah I still remember when I listened it for the first time. Was like "Damn this is epic". Such an unique song, with such an awesome ending. |
