Mark Knopfler - Monteleone Lyrics

I often listen to this wonderful and sweet melody, written by Mark and dedicated to his great friend John Monteleone, great American luthier, maker of mandolins and archtop guitars, of Italian origins.

❤🎸🎤❤

Como te quiero Mark❤

My friend and local music shop owner studied under John Monteleone. She went to New York and worked with him in his shop. I had the privilege of spending some time with her at her shop her in Kentucky and learning a lot about how guitars, mandolins and banjos work. How to make nuts and saddles, and fix sundry things on lots of Martin’s, etc. Always gave me the feeling that I was tapping in to something deep and wonderful.

Hey Mark I helped you with the song money for nothing I said I would contact you in the future I still live in Hawaii try to connect with me

One of if not the most beautiful song I‘ve ever heard♥️ the words the guitar pure magic ☺️

"Monteleone"

The chisels are calling
It's time to make sawdust
Steely reminders of things left to do
Monteleone
A mandolin's waiting for you

My fingerplane's working
Gentle persuasion
I bend to the wood and I coax it to sing

Monteleone
Your new one and only will ring
Monteleone
Your new one and only will ring

The rain on the window
The snow on the gravel
The seasons go by to the songs in the wood

Too quick or too careless
It all could unravel
It so easily could

The chisels are calling
It's back for an encore
Back to the shavings that cover the floor

Monteleone
A call for more
Monteleone
A call for more

Trying to reach mark how's my investment need to reach you in Hawaii

Amazing song, thank you for all the wonderful music over all those years.

No podría cansarme nunca de escuchar sus canciones. Brillantes creaciones! Que la vida lo siga inspirando, Sr. Knopfler!

I've seen one of their guitars at The Metropolitan Museum of Art of New York. One of the most beautiful guitars I've ever seen for the best guitarist. Greetings from Valladolid, Spain

Love u from IRAQ🌹❤️

Italian guitar ... Scottish man ... one heart ... one music ... one soul ...

What is Knoplers age ?

ogni tua canzone e una poesia ,sei unico

Please do what you must to get your 2009 Hurlingham version of Brothers In Arms back on Youtube music videos. It's truly one of my favorite music videos. I pay Youtube $10/mo. for no commercials, and I'd pay an added fee just to have this great music video again! PLEASE!

Thanks for sharing!!!

The craft and the person tools are like children in a way like songs can be foundations were none are found. Once again inspiring to the stars and back. Thankyou for sharing 🌠🌠🌈🎶 also a great reminder to slow down sometimes and let work flow 🙃👏

喜歡馬克諾弗勒 awesome!

Wonderful! I love your way of playing guitar Mark Knopfler. Thank sir.

Pięknie👌👌👌 Pozdrawiam z POLSKI ❤️

What a lovely man.

What a masterpiece! Fan for years, your one date in Connecticut for 2019 tour is SOLD OUT...I'm in tears. 😢

so poetic

Love you Mark. ( brazil)

This guy is like a great wine -gets better with age (unlike me)

I try to listen 10 hours per day to Mark's songs.... nothing else will get through....

❤️🎈

dolcissima e rilassante, sono solito ascoltarla dopo pranzo .

Oh, my gosh, I've never heard this song before, so thank goodness Mark as published this. It's beautiful, a warm, heartfelt tribute from one master-craftsman to another. I've corrected my omission by buying "Get Lucky" - I'm looking forward to seeing what other gems there might be on the album!

One craftmaster acknowledging another. Most beautiful.

Que pena que tu te achas velho e já vai encerrar a carreira😥😭3maio 2019

What a beautiful melody and feeling this song has, makes you want to close your eyes and drift away, swaying your head from side to side, then you open them again and realize the vacuuming still needs doing.

Outstanding. I've decided that when the new Devin Townsend comes in at the library, I'm going to take this Best Of Dire Straits/Mark Knopfler CD God made me grab from another library's free shelf and put it on my iPod too...

When you look inward, you wake up. Genuine and unique, with lights of colors and shadows...
In his musical career, I transmit discern. Without wanting or wanting, he got it.
THANK YOU

ICONE. ..........❤

Such beautiful melodies and inspired verse, Thank you.

It's certainly one of the most wonderful melody and story Mr Mark Knopfler has ever written. A beautiful valse. Thanks.

Oh, Mark. This is so loving and lovely. We love our art, and should not forget the crafters behind us. What a beautiful song.

Serenidad pura!!! Genio total!!

Mark rules !

Mark Knopfler, o cara é gênio, fantástico!

Strangely, I had missed this song and I just played it on my way to work, today, then it showed up.. A masterpiece. Thank you Mr MK

Légende vivante

Good geetar player

What!?! That's like saying that Shakespeare was a good playwright, or Monet was a good painter, or Einstein was a good physicist. "Good" is not the right word to use for a master-craftman, someone who raises the bar of their profession, who excels at their craft!

That's actually make me think to the Corleone.. from Sénégal Africa

Song to relax and dream with the mountains and the stars! Thanks mark! It is like a 'nana'

Mark Knopfler is the best ....❤ from Algeria.
