I think we sometimes confuse feeling happy with feeling simply joyful, having fun. I feel absolutely happy when I listen to What It Is studio version or STP because it's a pinnacle of songwriting and recording, and everything, makes me feel happy that humanity is capable of doing such masterpieces. Walk Of Life makes me not particularly happy but joyful.

The intention of my original question was to include all of that, happy, smile, fun, joyful, a song that you hear and think, I love this, and it is having a uplifting positive affect on me, maybe you were having a bad day, you then play the song, and it makes you glad to be alive, and a Mark Knopfler fan.

I will add What's The Matter Baby to my previous choice too.

[Rivers Of Rain]

Of the songs which have already been mentioned, I most strongly agree with Our Shangri-La (perfect song for watching the sun go down on a beautiful summer evening) as well as Laughs And Jokes And Drinks And Smokes (never fails to bring a smile to my face).

I would also add Skateaway, which I think has an infectious groove and an uplifting chorus, and Golden Heart, as it is such a beautiful love song in a straightforward, uncomplicated way, even more so with guitar solo that perfectly matches that feeling.

This is a regular feeling when I listen to his music. Sometimes it even makes me proud to be a MK fan.
There is something in his voice and music that makes me feel so good, fills my heart with endless joy and happiness. I really cannot imagine a life without his music.

A very nice comment KnopfleRick:)  I have the same.

[KnopfleRick]

Thanks, Robson.  I' m pretty sure that we are not the only ones who feel like this when it comes to MK.

[Robson]

I believe it

And girl, it looks so pretty to me
Like it always did
Oh, like the Spanish city to me
When we were kids
Yeah, girl it looks so pretty to me
Just like it always did
Oh, like the Spanish city to me
When we were kids

I've been a fan of many bands over the years, but only one changed my life - DS/MK!
