Dire Straits - Money For Nothing Live in Nimes 1992

[brenoldt]

i used to play like mark, but no i make custom kitchen deliveries

[Pedoblast]

I have my hands in a cold sweat while watching this.

[Wildgeese73]

I still try to dislodge the car windows on a daily basis while listening to this awesome song!!! Dire straits rocked the planet with this stuff back in the 80s.

[WianApple]

can someone PLEASE tell me were you can find the tabs for the intro ( solo part ). btw, awesome song! ;)

[Maxshard]

@WianApple He was just improvising on the spot for fun. Song doesn't start till the opening riff. Why,can you play like that?

[Oetzrock]

the arena in nimes oh yeah

[RemonaGrettayn546]

hihi Im a young girl with the most incredible smile

[immrcole]

i soooooooooooooo want to go to a concert of theirs

[FMMML]

@immrcole a bit late...

[CComb501]

@immrcole Probably won't happen again in our lifetime Bud. I was in my 20's in the 80's and loved Dire Straits (still do). Knopfler is one of the greatest guitarests that ever lived.

[ilpandamonio]

in the first minute i understood why i was listening to this and not to what is on the fuckin mtv

[MaoCarlydv111]

lol I look like star!I have big eyes with love inside

[DaveStoertebeker]

oh god this took a minute and 49 sec for me to realise why they stopped playing - money for nothing. oh my god i'm so slow today^^. This is some great music!

[lyonslaforet]

I've always felt Mark Knopfler was a little reserved towards his fans!

[MrMorganfarts]

how could this get 22- no....how could this get ANY dislikes?!

[bozay74]

mark knopfler... inimitable !!

[Biluak]

Amsterdam arena was even better.... He's a genius....

[zr1zora]

little faggots got his own jet airliner why is this so offensive ??????hahahahahaha fing emotional humans ya wanna cry about bad crap look at the millions of pooooooorrrr kids starving to death while you morons cry about some word in a bands wording pure stupidity

[eanielsen123]

lol this concert was great i have it on dvd. they leave the stage for like ten minutes and the fans are just cheering as if to let Mark know you forgot one song. He comes back out playing.

[FMMML]

BIG PLAY!

[bladosc444]

Wyjebane

[TboneXXL1]

at least they've decided to sing it :)). as you can see the crowd's reaction is quite louder at first :D teasing tricks. Anyway Mark rocked, rocks, and will forever !! \m/

[Woesteinvuir]

What a great performance.

[simodegre]

22 don't know music...

[borntobwild22]

@simodegre And 1 doesn't know when to shut the fuck up and watch the video.

[immrcole]

wow. just wow.

[swisa1120]

[BlauweWafels]

Why hasnt this 7 mil views ?

[guizim9612]

1:08

fuck yeah

[ispoden]

best guitar player ever heard

[Shlendle]

@tomasterceiro I think he used a wah pedal set somewhere in the middle. Great tone!

[GeorgeTel100]

Leksingen, thank you for posting it, this one is the best version of this song! (besides, it's so nice NOT to hear that annoying sting's part in the beginning)

[ikhebeenfeesthoedjeo]

he is like guys we got them. we've made it

[nicoco789]

Holly drummer !!

So, holly band !

[willemlol7]

How come everytime someone plays that riff ppl start to scream and i get shiver down my spine:) I played it with my band a few weeks ago and it really gave the gig that little extra awesomeness

[Thurzotron]

@willemlol7 I think it's because it's clearly the most recognizable guitar riff in rock history

[avfcmickdaly]

@willemlol7 ................just the most recognisable song of all time.......3)sweet child of mine......2)layla.....1)money for nothing.......i'm a mad metalhead the last 25 years...and it's because of watching these fuckers at live aid....how could you not love the lead guitar.

[srvfan454]

Dirty Teaser!!!



[srvfan454]

Teaser!



[cousteau7]

Una de las mejores canciones de la historia.

[TheKirk15]

Makes the crowd go wild by a riff.

[luiscosta49]

Unfortunately you don`t have concerts like this, these days

[lyrrad999]

@luiscosta49 did you watch acdc live at river plate?

[KingLama1]

A 'Wish I was there moment' - eh???

[danthaman409]

This was one of my favorite songs, the virtual music video was great heh.

[Dodojezakon]

Kids,take a look and see whats a real music,this is real ROCK N' ROLL.

[FellipeSNK]

ha ha I know what he thought when he crossed his arms, something like "I'm a badass motherfucker"

[mamakas2255]

This is real music

[ChapterVIII09]

21 people don't like being teased.

[LucZamTor]

god bless chris whitten on the drums...

[jtdonner1]

Does he actually stop because the crowd is too loud and they needed to turn up the instruments?

[ihopetospeed1]

Fuck the CRTC

[CallingElvisVit]

Knopfler Best!

[Hakkai87]

[sorocus]

[laihzify]

[ciufela73]

Grande Mark Knoofler Grande Money for nothing

[moonkef]

Phil Palmer is awesome in this too

[russ13b]

Millions of years from now, humans will have evolved ears which will enable us to listen to this at a volume which is correct

[TheBonScott33]

[eoghanctv]

[lavalleej1]

[skyl1neG]

[BODOMSKATER666]

i really love that riff

[starstoshare]

Every time i listen to these songs...i feel so lucky because i grew up in the 80s...when many of the best songs ever were created!

[DireStraits1stFan]

unreal

[Ironcladsf]

THAT IS HOW A GOD MAKES YOU BEG

[sidebforever2010]

This song ain't even in first person, therefore it's not likely that any derogatory slant is intended whatsoever from the band's perspective. It is wrong to censor works of art such as this one.

[Slyrus76]

...Gotta love Canadian's politics!! When 0.1% of people beat 99.9% of people thats an Epic democracy FAIL!!! what's next after blocking my BLOODY favorite tunes fom you utube and forced gay marriages Canada?!? Youthanasia??? great, may I CHOOSE who comes and goes plz plz plz PrEtTy PLZ??????????? I have great ideas for that dept...seriously!! it includes gaz chambers and crematoriums, like the old days ya know, why reinvent the wheel right ?!?

[samuntouchable]

HE OWNS THE CROWD

[crewlla]

The canadian Brodcast standards council said this song is unfit to be played cause it uses the word fagget in it three times.

[guitartown4]

so dis song has juz been banned on da radio in CANADA!!

FER DA DA WORD FAGGOT!! da little faggot is a millionaire!!

its funny cause he jams wit elton john alot!!! IS DAT WHOS HES SINGIN ABOUT!!! LOL!

[sublimedog]

they band this song in canada today i cant believe it you cant sensor the past i don't think gays are offended by the lyrics i love the lyrics because mt'v is for F _ _ _ _ S

[hockeycanada100]

@sublimedog i find that stupid that every song has one swear but they blovkhis song cuz og faggot

[monsterabyss1992]

what bands these days can you say are better live

[e1doller]

wow, i didnt know he played all this fingerstyle, fair play!!

[wpniabbc]

it was the gay and lesbian LGBT group who wanted it banned.

[theblack1998]

baby quiero queso roñoso

[fercholoko100]

pfff he doesnt play with a pick , shit

[Mubble]

@fercholoko100 - What a knob. I can't wait for other guitarists to come on here and read your comment.

[linuz011]

@Mubble Im not even gonna bother to respond to his stupid comment.. He obviously knows nothing about playing the guitar.

[JamWithJimi]

@fercholoko100 Mark Knopler never uses a pick. He is famous for his awesome fingerstyle playing. Not usind a pick is the way he prefers to handle his guitar, and judging from the crowd I'd say he handles it quite well.

[freeman2545]

@JamWithJimi ....with fingers...you can pick strings that are seperated by other strings...simultaneously....ca­nt do that with a pick....can get pretty close....but.....not the same....more options using fingers....

[JamWithJimi]

@freeman2545 You can actually combine the pick with one or more fingers to get that effect but i agree fingers gives alot of options that a pick does not - the last lick in Sultans of Swing is one good example. There are also some stuff, like hybrid picking, that you can only play with a pick.

[playboyv12]

The explosion of the European crowd cheer around 1:40 is EPIC.

[fabiocamporesi]

so insincere :)

[Kaukasus757]

SUPER!!!

[D0nRidah]

this is so fucking rock and roll

[uredbulldawg]

God what I would have given to be at that show...

[markdeaton]

the look on his face the whole time... "yeah, i got this shit down" :)

[samtawen]

all the wat money for nothing chosen one n only

[misterosa]

ROCK AND FUCKING ROLLLLLLLLLLLLL!

[marcisgreatAA]

nobody will ever play it like he does, that kinky pciking sound is something ive never seen covered right by anyone.

[jbatenburg50]

This is music, Dire Straits Forever

[inngglstoodt]

Marc Knopfler, probably the best musician in the world

[Scouiky11]

Yes, of course !!!

[DanskeSange]

@inngglstoodt And you can't even spell his name..

[zippbitch]

hes one of the gods of guitar! and rock as well

[MrMrcrain]

17 people have no taste in music

[lescastroau]

....can't even snap my fingers that quick !!!!!

[gnjojn]

00:45 ...epicness!!!

[tomasterceiro]

love the tone. ideas of getting near?

i know e uses only bridge hb, but an out of phase middle position on a les paul would get halfway there

[MrMrcrain]

Best dire straits video i have ever seen

[alojzbundy]

Is this real music or God Is talking to me.

[steinley1]

asik juga neh music!

[Snoopsas]

epic coolness

[WazZaaA111496]

i'ld sell my mother to see this live!

[esdenaze]

I smiled like a retard the whole way trough.

[56grishnak65]

[liftedcj7on44s]

@esdenaze Same here, awesome!

[Bjorland1234]

@esdenaze Me to



[pandagoodness]

@3rdpug, what the fuck are you on about? You do know that Mark still records and is a millionaire.

[bunkyrob3]

16 people don't have ears

[Dubickimus]

@bunkyrob3 they only disliked it because they were frustrated that they couldnt hear it.

[neryngo]

GOO CRAZYYYY"!!!!!!!!!

[spiffglass]

Doesn't get cooler than this.

[inferno7654]

WOW !!!

[FinalScoreProducts]

You may not believe what this song REALLY means. Find out at the blog SongSense.info. Seriously, all the stuff they tell you there is incredible.

[captaindillo]

How anyone could watch a lady gaga video and then watch this and not think the gaga was dribble is beyond me.

[Randomnick123]

Talking about taking the growd...? :D

[KingLama1]

Great musician guitar that Mozart would die for. Dont criticise what you dont know makes you look like a monkey.

[KingLama1]

try not to criticise what you dont understand makes you like a monkey. Bad copy of a great song, music that Mozart would die for, music genius. If youv not been to a Rock Concert you cant compare.

[3rdpug]

Its awful,Mark had it all.Top band,great songs and fans the world over.How the hell did he end up feasting on left over burgers outside Leeds city station.One of the most upsetting things ive ever seen was Mark being led away from the bins outside Burger King,he wore urine soaked jeans and was screaming"brothers in arms,brothers in arms"Very,very sad,poor lad!

[LuigiIrace]

@3rdpug what the hell!?

[eanielsen123]

@3rdpug what?

[Luckool]

@3rdpug what are you talking about x) trolling?

[Asbestos101]

Now thats a real rock star

[mirokor]

fack !is so good!

[tucumanoargentino]

LINDA LA GUITARRITA ...NOO..???

[vittopuz]

THIS IS GUITAR!

[DaBoogie049]

i like this one better than the synthesizer supported studio version

[ColterSage]

O.k. this is one for favorites for sure...I like this particular rendition of the formula that the band had adapted for the stage of the tease in the intro and the not-so-long and well done climax because Mark Knopfler really looks like he is having fun during this particular performance. Out of all YouTube performances I could watch in two straight days this one is the best I liked! Also checkout Dire Straits - Money For Nothing (Live) Feat. Sting & Co...Be responsible.

[predator1398]

love the direstraits =]

[egett]

Tousands of people are getting crazy, SCREAMING, CRYING just because of a part of a guitar riff! THAT'S ROCK AND ROLL!

[djs0793]

@egett So Awesome. One of the greatest guitar riffs of all time!

[Mark070795]

@djs0793 Not one of the greatest. It is the greatest.

[nflrush1]

@egett Hell yeah, man. No other way to put it. Rock and Roll will never die!

[riquelme64]

he was in munich 3 weeks ago and didnt play this song :(

[benthesupernova]

he dosn't say little faggot

[Silber7]

I don't quite get it: is this (propably Autumn in Nimes?) the concert where parts of "On the Night" were taken from?!? sure, this song was not on OtN, there it is from NL without intro. but other parts? or was it a different Nimes concert?

Has anybody cleared that up already? Just don't feel like comparing this note by note by myself^^

[Leksingen]

@Silber7 Well, I don't get it either. What I've understood it's just some footage of the crowd taken and the arena, not any audio.

[robert5uk]

@Leksingen Its from a different night. I'v got 3 dvd, 3 different nights at Nimes

[lucabrasi5599]

@Saliber7 some parts of the On The Night had been taken from autumn in nimes, and some from other concert (i don't remember which :P )

[avidbookreader]

@lucabrasi5599

You are right. One the Night DVD is combined with two concerts.

One had been taken from France (although I am not sure in which city)

The other from Rotterdam, Netherlands.:)

[lucabrasi5599]

@avidbookreader france-nimes

[avidbookreader]

@lucabrasi5599 Thank you.:)

[ChapterVIII09]

@Silber7 he played nimes quite a few times during this tour, this version is from the september run of the concerts but the on the night snippets were from a different night :)

[ilariabaccega]

è una stra figata

[skippy3840]

There will never be anyone who can play like Mark does. A true master.

[yenrab921]

I should have learned to play the guitar......

[kukuluzukuluk]

This is how you define good music, show me any comercial pop shakria, britney or any other 'singer' make the crowd go wild like this

[TheRedCapitalist]

@kukuluzukuluk

how about lady gaga?

[LucZamTor]

ya podrían estar ellos en el rock in rio...

[jakcinto]

haaaaannnneeeeeeeepppppppppppp­p!!!

[Elektraman71]

Yeh, he missed a note and played a wrong one too!!! Shocking!

[medth51]

[sutho1969]

Yes, the Guitar he is using is a Pensa Custom, made by Rudy Pensa in New York City. I have one, it's awesome!!!!!!

[caleb505]

So awesome when he starts out the song and the crowd just erupts!

[Djolle90]

DIRE STRAITS!!!!!!IS THE BEST GROUP IN THE WORLD FOR EVERY TIMES!!!!!!!!!!!Dodjite u Srbiju!Volimo Vas!!!!!!!

[GTtaurus]
