There's nothing I can do
Nothing I can say
You'll do what you want to
You'll go your own sweet way
You'll go your own sweet
Your own sweet way
You'll go your own sweet
Your own sweet way
Now I can talk to you serious
I can talk to you nice
But when it comes to love
You won't take good advice
You'll go your own sweet
Your own sweet way
You'll go your own sweet
Your own sweet way
It doesn't matter what I say
What I do or what I think
You can lead a horse to water
You can't make him drink
You'll go your own sweet
Your own sweet way
You'll go your own sweet
Your own sweet way

Well? Still waiting. Umm, if you click the link for the band you will see that no one uploaded "Feel like Going Home." If you want to hear that track, I'd suggest you upload it. If Bill and Rebecca give it the green light, it will hit the LRC. If the LRC review people like it, than it will be played here. As I understand it, there are a few things that come in directly to RP from the labels or artists, but by and large everything you hear was a listener upload. | |

| ozzie1313 | Posted: Mar 20, 2012 - 17:28 Over the years, Mark Knopfler has stood the test of time, and like the proverbial good wine gotten better with age (although this song is 1990). After tons of Dead shows and fierce loyalty to Neil Young, Knopfler is my favorite of all time. He is never stuck, although that is so true of Neil too. | |
| tkosh (Minnesota) | Posted: Feb 19, 2012 - 11:21 Love it, or not love it—it just doesn't get much smoother than this. This is great stuff by almost any standard. | |

You base your opinion on one bad show instead of countless rave reviews and millions of sold recordings? The best concert I've ever seen and the worst concert I've ever seen have been with Peter Gabriel. Different nights, different stuff happens. Live shows are risky for artists, you shouldn't base opinions on the body of their work based on a bad night. I saw Dire Straits live and thought it was a pretty good show. Maybe the band was hung over the night you saw them and he was trying to compensate for slow drummers and off key bass? Just a thought. | |

I open a CD case with such great anticipation to hear one of my classic CDs and it's gone. I bet some college buddies (supposedly) back in the day swiped 'em and I never found out. Oh well, hopefully someone is enjoying them. | |

| robh (up t'north UK) | Posted: Jun 23, 2011 - 14:10 I'm stuck with this one. I don't like it, if I'm honest. But is that because it's tired? Is it formulaic? Is it, as someone said further down, boring? I don't know! Perhaps a combination of all of them if I'm honest. It really does nowt for me. | |

I've had this CD for about ten years now; it's a keeper. BTW, MK also has a number of film scores to his credit, my favorite being Local Hero.  Yes sir, the score is terrific and so is the movie! However don't watch it if you are tired, it's slow pace will put you to sleep. | |
