The bridge is very close to the bridge in Sands of Nevada.  :)

In fact the whole song is Nevada-esque.

I wonder what's up with MK and Nevada.  ;D

Agree.

Would fit in nicely on STP.

ha I'm glad I wasn't wrong  ;)

Did you say that too?  Ha!  Can't both be wrong!  :lol

I didn't say particulary on this song, but I said that the whole album has a STP flavour  :)

Nice song as well, to my ears this is again something completely new in the MK songbook. Mark just continues to amaze!
On the other hand, Im not sure if I am so fond of the ’cow yicki yee’ part, maybe Guy came up with that idea;)

Very catchy song, energetic and nicely sung by Mark. However, don’t quite like the 80s sound of the drums and never have liked the Farfisa sound by Guy.

Would love to have the three new songs ripped as mp3 so I can listen to them on my proper stereo, so if anyone would be so kind to mail me it would be much appreciated
Rep :D

I love when Mark slides from a major to a minor chords, he does that so perfectly, love the song.
If I realised that the chances were slim,
How come I'm so surprised when the tide rolled in

Would anyone be so kind to share the links to the leaked songs by PM? I'd be very thankful.

(Got the links. Thanks to (you know who you are :) ).)

This song is beautiful. Lovely chord changes, and love Mark's singing here, PARTICULARLY when he goes into that high-pitched voice. Sounds a bit like Pete Rowan. Great touch.

The chord progression is a bit Richard Bennett.

Pretty haunting little song, love it.

Didn't he go falsetto in Paraguaaaayyyy? :)
...Well, he's a big star now but I've been a fan of his for years. The way he sings and plays guitar still bring me to tears...

Yeah, this is a very good song. That's what I would call classic MK. It's slow, it has solos, it has character.

I barely like the other available songs, but this is the first one I want to hear over and over again.

And yes, Paraguaaaayyyy is definitely falsetto, but a short one ;D

Exactly, it's almost 5 a.m. in my time zone already, I need some sleep. And I could be wrong in the chords because of that :lol

Chords are here, by the way: https://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/tab/mark_knopfler/nobodys_child_chords_2513805

I tried to do other songs, but I just can't do it right now. I'm too upset with the production of overall good songs.

I see you are not a real fan - you could have waited until 5.15 am at least ..  ;D
