Judging by Guy's answer to my question on his forum, we might have a new Mark Knopfler song issued soon:

Hi Guy,

I this difficult time for everyone around the world, would it be possible for Mark to release a track that has not seen the light of day before? maybe on his YouTube channel? I am sure this would make his fans a bit happier. I understand if this is not possible.

Answer: I’m sure it would be

It would be, but it doesn't mean it will be :lol

I don't think anything will be released soon, but I always hope for sure.

I agree, I just wasn't expecting Guy to give that reply. I will keep fingers crossed. I was thinking they must have lots of songs already recorded just sitting on the shelf, including ones we already know about, so it is possible one could be released.
Knopfler, Oldfield and Gilmour is all the guitar I need.

His standard short answers  :lol

I think he means he is sure it would be nice for us fans with a new song, not necessarily that it will happen at all..

Why not release Back in the Day?

I doubt it, doesn't sound like something MK would do. I would be thrilled though if so!!

These are unprecedented times but you're right - this would be uncharacteristic of Mark.

Didn't think of that. Good point. Let's hope for a miracle to happen ;D

Comeback of the year there!

Let's be clear here, the Coronavirus situation gives us not only terrible times indeed, but (don't throw rotten tomatoes at me) it is a great opportunity for any artist to bump their attention game, releasing concerts, videos, songs, etc. And nobody will blame MK if he would jump on that train as well, because artists will do that forever. My guess is that MK would rather write a song about it, instead of dancing on people's tragedy. He's too old school.

Andy_67:

I just want to say a massive Thank you to Dire Straits/Mark Knopfler and the record label for releasing Dire Straits old singles to streaming! Also wanted to make sure all readers of this forum are aware of this if not already. I have really been enjoying listening to these. Here’s a quick run down of what’s available on Spotify and probably other streaming platforms;
Comfort & Joy film music EP by Mark Knopfler enjoying
Heavy Fuel (single) tracks include Planet Of New Orleans and Kingdom Come (very amusing)
Calling Elvis (single) tracks inc!use Iron Hand and Millionaire Blues (another amusing song)
Dire Straits Extended Dance EP . Tracks are Twisting By The Pool, Two Young Lover’s and If I had You.
Normally I can only listen to the Extended Dance EP on vinyl but it’s great that I can listen anywhere.
So grateful and happy about these releases. I’m left wondering what other goodies are in the pipeline…

Guy:

You’re welcome. Plenty.


That's interesting. Or it may mean nothing :)

Back in the day, before corona came our way. Maybe a release proposal? ;D

If I realised that the chances were slim,
How come I'm so surprised when the tide rolled in

Angelo posted his cover of Why Worry on Guy's forum and asked Guy to pass it to Mark. I'm not a professional at gambling, but I think his chances of Guy passing the message is like... one in a billion, probably. Everybody knows Guy tend to ban everything tribute and covers related, so I'm surprised that some guys don't know that. And that's the reason why I will never ever post anything from my channel on Guy's forum, let alone asking to pass it to Mark. Crazy stuff, but whatever.
