    Dearest KING Mark Knopfler,

    I was so proud and surprised to still write you my thoughts about one of the best songs in the world , your SONG _YOUR LATEST TRICK_
    H SAX .
    You are a Genious, You create as a Genious your songs, especially this one, my preferred one. Don't worry if in thousands of music stores there are people asking for or playing the amazing notes of THE SAX..... Just enjoy your Talent.

    In these last three days I learnt how to catch the real meaning of the words along the text because ONE of my students want to approach your Music to improve his English COMPREHENSION through some famous songs (we are both ITALIAN, I confess living in the North).
    He chose The Great "ROMEO and Juliet " , then I suggest him YOUR LATEST TRICK. So here I am.

    Thanks for having shown us in your enterview dtd. 2005 that is impossible to draw the real situation in which you were when you wrote the song.
    Thanks for the image of your returning from the studio by bike , in the middle of the american night, breathing all the dark colors and the prehistorical noises as you would be an archaeologist ......What else ? Too much to say about the notes and the consequent FEELINGS due to the sax-solo!

    Proud am I for having bought this album in the far 1993 ( 8 years later its first release !!!) and so glad at the moment to send you my reply on a precious pearl of the neverending best MUSIC. Please, allow me to thank that stupid-stupid woman who did the TRICK. (and causing the SONG, perhaps )


    Enjoy your life, King KNOPFLER, in the meanwhile we try to enjoy your Genious.


    Hoping in a short but original reply from you (come on, let me dream your TRICK)

    Loving your ART,
