Excelentes...mi máxima puntuación.......gran grupo, y me gusta lo que es realmente bueno.....

[nataliarockful]

[48dodea]

Before I heard this song and saw the video I used to think it was wrong to insult people and call them nmaes because of their sexual orientation

[kimolaki]

and Elton JON PLAY WİTH PIANO.........

[kimolaki]

but amazing..........

[kimolaki]

sting is waiting.............

[MopTop96]

most EPIC stars ever :)

[charlestonchewy]

Now that's what I call an All-Star cast!

[HarveyBacktheBeatles]

Did Sting only do the opening live at live aid.

[kikutihakirito5]

anos que nw voutan mais

[MrMarkito08]

[Oerg866]

[tribakk1]

[ottawangel]

[XPDIEZ]

phil colins en la bateria !!! un grande de todos los tiempos

[MacMarshall17]

Was Phil Collins on the drums?

[adakar83]

@MacMarshall17

yes, as allways

[kiteark15]

@MacMarshall17

Yes, he was a great drummer with genesis

[MacMarshall17]

Clapton and Knopfler. Two kick ass guitar players

[Claretcross]

HOMOPHOBES! Scared of the mud packers and changed Faggot to "BUDDY " ?

[BETAsin]

First song i listened to in 2012

[Wavr94]

@BETAsin me too :)

[kiteark15]

@BETAsin

nice way to start 2012 ^^

[mavrpan]

lol i liked than last second... YEAH on the pianist mic!

[Marz5004]

Great job guys.

[AgustinSanchez7]

With just see Clapton in second guitar, I realize that Knopfler a great guitarist

[TherealAnd21]

you dont get much better than this

[kalma70]

that guitar is so cool :D

[Taureaux4bleus]

Yup Phil Collins best drummer ever in the eyes of many... heck but I also rate big Mick Fleetwood from Fleetwood Mac... and Knopfler is excellent, my pick however the underrated Lindsey Buckingham also from Fleetwood Mac....

What about Christine McVie performing the part Elvis/Sting is playing with her accordian for extra rythm maybe? The song is fantastastic as is in anycase...

[BIuejay]

@Taureaux4bleus You need exposure to a wider array of drummers.

[Taureaux4bleus]

What more can you ask for but for heaven, the best rock stars coming together performing as a team....

[Meg300]

Here's the power!!!

[EHammarstrom]

Did I see Phil Colins on drums?

[zapkvr]

@EHammarstrom Yes

[Easyandy100]

@EHammarstrom You certainly did. He can't play anymore due to back injury.

[daranis1]

hemm 1:25 sorry :v

[daranis1]

1:16 sting with elvis/forrest gump step?

[faroree]

If could have a wish from a genie I would not wish for a 1000 wishes, the only thing i'd want is to have been born in the 60's so I could enjoy this epicness!!

[zapkvr]

@faroree You realise this is from the 80s. Peace out.

[rammler5000]

@geflous thats not right

[GreenGoSolar]

☼ SOLAR ♫ LOVE ♥ Liberty ∞

[SuperKarakis]

Great song great band many thumbs up !!!

Soula Marangos

[GeFlous]

"Picks are for losers" - Mark Knopfler

[TherealAnd21]

@GeFlous whats wrong withs picks?

[DarkAmbient93]

@GeFlous Picks have there place.  It's just one of many different styles of playing. There's nothing wrong with it.

[dorajeshotmailcom]

0:58 ' Baby , quiero queso roñoso ' ¿?¿?¿?¿? LOOOOL

[mlarson44]

LOL. Sting is really getting down here.... I watch a lot of Sting videos and this one, in particular, he's having LOT'S of fun !!!

[HildaAshleazv438]

ey just turned 18

[Dominator111h]

still a great song!!!

[Kijuia]

is the one in blue at 2:28 Brian May??

[MrMorganFarts2]

@Kijuia nah, its dire straits bassist, but now that i think about it, they look very much alike

[spongebobslushpants1]

I'm in dire need for Dire Straits!! Come back, guys!

[88Sturmabteilung]

4:37 great part when sting starts to sing melody from Dont stand so close to me.

[RumbleGuts2112]

What really winds me up is when people use 'feat' instead of 'with'

Its still the same amount of letters used so its not too taxing in case you think you might run out of energy halfway through typing the word' featuring' and not be able to complete it.

Peace

[raoul649]

mark knopfler coolist guitarist ever

[thewwo9]

I like this song.

[Hobinator17]

1:54 eric clapton- "fuck you, you damn dirty camera man"

[haciragipdayi]

1:03 Look mark knopfler :D

[TanyaYanguy133]

hiya relax and enjoy my company

[Zaz0u707]

Mark Knopfler is a Ninja Turtle : it's Raphael :D

[stschubs]

@LickNRiff They probably didn't. What makes it amateurish, and what have you got to prove? That comment seems unnecessary and egotistical to me.

[nayruto]

I WANT MY MTVVVVVVVV

[LickNRiff]

It's so exciting to see all those superstars on one stage singing this awesome song, but musically this version is really poor. These are top notch musicians and they could have delivered a WAY better performance. It sounds amateurish, as if they didn't rehearse this beforehand.

[Robb9096]

and Phil Collins on the skins! wowy jeepers!

[Robb9096]

is that Elton Buttfuck on the keyboards? well, this is a largely Brit bunch.

[fr3ds4t]

Don't stand so...don't stand so...don't stand so close to meeee

[Billybongsterhut]

Gently headbutts the mic at the start. This shit rules.

[Dortmundfanatiker77]

WOW.

[SinaAngelli389]

hrm I just wanna have fun with you

[mikey101montes]

Dire Straits money for nothing (live) feat. Sting from the police!!

[primomama]

owsome man. so glad to find this version

[dankwarth]

3:48 - Elton John?

[samsarahmail]

In honor of the Wall Street Protestors!

[Smiegle7]

EEEEEPIC!

[platingas]

1:12 Arnold Schwarzenegger...

[kiwifabregas]

AMAZING.nuff said. :) 

[boneman85]

I love this song!!!!!!



[Dragovichful]

lol 0:26 sting was like "wtf was that me?"

[MrJazzyjay123]

Bring back the 80's people! Life has been shit after!!!!

[dixiedragon54]

I bow before the gods

[patentagosse]

epic, timeless, dream band. 

[vitorcpcmacae]

canta de +

[1864oktobar]

best video and song on youtube and mtv. Serbia loves you <3

[20thcenturysurvivor]

"money for nothing and the chicks for free", what a great life!

[MrBlamboo]

great performance!..but elton john is not interested in the "chicks for free" offer :) lol

[MrGuitarlick]

steinbergers are the strangest guitars :P

[RMaidla]

One of the best rock performances ever. I am not sure these guys were aware they were making history then. What a band!

[ziopi5963]

...outboard motor!

[videomanf]

0:58 baby quiero queso roñoso (?) XD

[frog112]

1:16, sting gets stabbed

[MrAtomic2000]

@frog112 sting got stung!

[SnowyCamel]

I don't get why nobody is filming Clapton. Also, I don't know who is playing the solo(guessing Clapton), since neither guitarist is filmed during the solo.

[Vivvd]

@mickihotchick..I alway's thought he was referring to Boy George.I could be wrong though?..

[roro62330]

PTDR !!! YOU,YOU

Pouce vert ;)

[mickihotchick]

Okay question... Who is he saying has an earring and makeup.. I see they changed it to something else, because it used to be "that little faggot with the earring and the makeup" but I can't figure out what he's saying. Anyone?

[DenKulesteSomFins]

@mickihotchick "queenie"

[paulyrockjapan]

and i love this!

[annekabergqvist]

Nostalgi för en del, men lika aktuell idag! Så djävla bra!

[12reflect]

I can't help but to think how incredibly extraordinary this song would be if they had some folks up there who could really play and sing. (OMG only kidding!!!!!!!!!) WOW - what a treat!

[Anniushcka]

well, we have Phill Collins playing the drums, Elton John at the piano and Sting is doing the chorus... ah yeah... another little detail, Eric Clapton and his guitar... ah yeah.. and Mark Knoppfler, of cours! mmmm, I think we're served!!

[Allexanndr3]

amazing! amazing! thank u so much for up this vid

[RockYouYes]

3:56 Is it Ray Cooper on second drum kit?

[NittaSuper]

Eternal devotion for this song!

[CaradaysRedux]

Sting and Knopfler - Great ear candy!

[420DrChronicThC]

mark is too cool to use a pick

[FoxMX57]

16 people have to work for their money and have no chicks =/

[TheManuKyle]

lol xD

[FoxMX57]

This video just makes you wanna cry its so flawless

[EstherA7x]

aa i love t his version! Phil Collins. Eric Clapton. Elton John. Sting. Mark Knopfler. What do we need more in a band??

[garcemac]

@EstherA7x I don't think that a lot of younger people appreciate how brilliant Elton is - or what he did to shape modern rock and roll. Ain't nobody like that man - ain't nobody gonna be like that man in the future.

My opinion may mean nothing, but Elton is an untouchable who helped define modern rock and roll.

[platingas]

@EstherA7x Sting playing bass, that's what we need :D

[tribakk1]

me gusta muchisimooooooooooooo

[spike280]

omg...this is incredible....

[rogerclemens88]

16 people had to pay for their chicks

[p0w3r96]

what the f ... what is this guitar ?

[jahnj1]

@p0w3r96 Steinberger, headless

[Hobinator17]

@p0w3r96 the guitar is a steinberger GL-2. cool 80's guitar ;)

[billykcyzg]

Back in the days they all have HAIR!

[bironman]

I can see Al Stewart on stage too.

[BogdanSkywalker7]

Look at Mark's guitar=))

[60sHippie3]

16 losers never got any chicks for free...

[AquilaliuqA]

Nice and gently now lads!

[andrewlekkas]

Chandler Bing is dancing at 1:25

[166INTENSO]

the very best!!!!!!!!!

[DiddyTheDuck2]

Phil Collins! Class!

[Companyofheroesgame]

16 people got some SLICK FUCKING problems- the 11 year old

[001ZEPPLINGYOPSL]

Man a lot of great artists on stage, yea



[concheharborboy]

16 people did not get their money for free!

[MegaStryju]

STING LOOKS JUST LIKE MCGAYVER



[MrGabba95]

che chitarra è ?

[avidbookreader]

@MrGabba95 Sorry I don't speak Italian, can only pick up a few frequently-seen words. I boldly guess that you asked what guitar it is? ;)

The brand of the guitar Mark plays here is Steinberger. That cute little guitar (I don't know what it's formally called) was quite popular in the 80s, I was told. :)

[victor10x]

@MrGabba95 si !

[victor10x]

@MrGabba95 non lo so hmm

[7466309change]

that one made money plenty too.

[MrMorganFarts2]

0:16 BEST FUCKIN PART!

[Iverdero]

Sting looks kinda lost... What's he doing there anyway?

[MrMorganfarts]

@Iverdero he just randomly showed up. the rest of the band was wondering what he was there for as well

[davidandhisguitar]

@Iverdero He's on the studio recording too. Not lost at all.

[IBoXIDPhiL]

C'est fort sympathique quand des grands artistes se rassemblent pour des bonnes causes et s'éclatent sur ce genre de morceau ...CPhilD.

[xRaZ0r38]

Pretty feat

[Hobinator17]

i love Mark's pants..... lol werent the 80's great?

[boneman85]

I LOVE IT!!!!!!!

[JayPattersonTV]

Nice and gently now lads XD

[bomboloneallacrema]

the hell's wrong with sting? is he high on something?

[kqwertyu]

Great song but Sting could have dressed up a bit for the event. He looks like he should be in a dole queue.

[MrMorganfarts]

@kqwertyu haha those are his nicest clothes

[MrMorganfarts]

0:02...oops. f*ckin mic!

[avidbookreader]

@MrMorganfarts LOL. Yeah that stupid offending mic! It should have been given death penalty.:D

[MrMorganfarts]

@avidbookreader haha but without it we wouldn't be able to hear marks singing, so I think we should give it a break

[avidbookreader]

@MrMorganfarts Hahaha, you are right, sir. Although magnanimity is not my trait, I do agree that we should forgive its sin - for Mark's sake.:)

[MrMorganfarts]

@avidbookreader ah, you are a vocabulary genus

[Daantjert4]

0:26

Sting goes crazy, makes a weird sound and looks like: man, whas that me?

[spartanV]

Sting went crazy in the beginning lol

[guitaristjon94]

I like this live version of money for nothing for two reasons. First one, Mark Knopfler is my favourite guitar player, second is that Mark is using a stienberger and I like the steinberger guitar and Mark doesnt usually use a stienberger guitar.

[avidbookreader]

@guitaristjon94 Yeah, very cute-looking guitar.:D

I've only seen him playing MfN with this guitar on two occations: One is this performance. Another is Sydney 86 The Final Oz concert. I don't know if there's more.

On these two concerts, not only does Mark play with same guitar, but wearing the same clothes as well. (different headbands, though.:))

[LateNightVoid]

For me the best guitar riff EVER!!!!!!

[myalaynaangel]

Canada banned the song because the think that the word Faggot only refers to GAYS... well it DOES NOT... Faggot means lots of things like.... A faggot is a slang term for cigarette, it means someone who is stupid, or a person who is rude and self seeking, it can be used to refer to as a homosexual but this is not what was intended in the meaning of the song.... some people are just too dang insecure.

[DracoBorealis]

THAT'S the way to do it! :)

12 people didn't get to install microwave ovens apparently...

[Peider248]

awesome!

but i have to say that i smiled a bit when he bumped into the microphone at 0:02

[63weezer]

-- 1986?? DAMN! I remember this like it was yesterday. I'm getting old.

[redstratocaster1942]

they know how to make music

[partymaniack]

Arrest that Mic!!!!!

[wizardpimp95]

love sting's wolf whistles

[rhcpisse]

ekstra je ovo je muzika!

[adamtzsch]

String's taxed.

[andrefelix96]

chicks for free!

[Freethinker12341]

phil collins is such a frigin sick drummer!

Mark Knopfler was born In Glascow Scotland but his family had moved to Blyth in the Northeast of England jwhen he was 7 just about 13 miles from Walsend on Tyne in Newcastle where Sting is from. They just happened to be in Monserrat at the same time when Mark asked Sting to come and help with the Money for nothing
