@TheBJKiD - it's not about a guy who died; Guy Fletcher revealed on his website that it's actually about Simon Cowell; as someone below correctly identified.
@nothingyet99 - the above information should help you, too. Just google "Simon Cowell" if you don't know who he is.. :p
Hej, I dont want to annoy you guys but can someone explain me where the songs is about, please?!....English is not my mother tongue therefore I don't get all his allusions.... maybe it's just about rich people and their lifestyle, which is way over their heads...or maybe I'm telling crap ;o)
the one thing I dont like about get lucky CD is the fact they left out so many good songs. MK is not getting any younger and any songs with this quality should be produced along with the new album even if they dont fit 100% to the album sound. why do fans need to download lame digital copies of that.
he's not getting any younger, indeed, but I find his lack of thirst for publishing all of his work a proof he's very selective and thorough... in fact this makes me respect him even more... Mark has his motives for doing the way he does... and I breathe deeply all his notes... Hope he'll last close to forever...
Que pedazo de tema!!! Como es posible que no este en el disco??? Es la primera vez que escucho una cancion de Mark Knopfler con una base musical de sintetizadores de fondo. Nunca deja de sorprenderme el Alopecico de Dios.

All of these disposable pop "artist" can only salivate at the possibility of producing quality music like Mark can.

Oh my.. This is the first time I hear this song, they really had to put this song on the album and not as a bonus track.

Both this and Pulling down the road would have made the album much better (not least faster). Both great country-like songs!!

Yes, it may could have been the best track on "Get Lucky".
