Industrial Disease - Dire Straits

[aussietv2]

The page 3 reference in the song refers to the page 3 girls with their boobs out in the British tabloids. Sam Fox was one of them.

[LilOilDerrick]

@aussietv2 Y'know....I just had a conversation about this TODAY with someone, I'm Aussie and born in '89 so hadn't heard of them until someone at work started playing a song by Sam Fox and I said "who the hell is this!"

[aussietv2]

@LilOilDerrick Yeah i think they stopped them in the early 90s. You know , political correctness and all that. Good to see this back again after all these yrs btw.

[LilOilDerrick]

@aussietv2 Well I'm a girl actually so it wouldn't surprise me that they stopped putting them out during the 90s ;) but I was surprised when this vid was allowed to be shown again, I guess WMG had a change of heart?

[nena99rocks]

"Ha! Spendid!"

[capnfabu]

Nicely done!

[varun588]

this is grand man! damn cool!

[yulbrynner777]

That was bloody brilliant on so many levels, hope to see some more!!!

[LilOilDerrick]

thanks guys :) more dire straits on the way.. i have dial up internet over the holidays until feb tho..

[Crapgame123]

This was both funny and good! Thumbs up!:D

[beseeingyou6]

incredible!

5 stars!

this should have been the actual music video!!!

[habman19]

great work...on one of Dire Straits best songs!! this one's a classic!!!

[MusicFreak1303]

heheh.. cool video.. :D

and the song.. ahh so GREAT!!

<3 Dire Straits <3 :))

[insainiac33]

Why's this thumbs down?

[finefilth]

i faved it!

[WestiGirl]

Me too!

[miketonon]

obamawill2008, probably more so today. I think people question what goes on behind the scenes more today than they did in 82. Back then the majority probably trusted the president, while today more people know they are just front men for the corporations.

[milygr]

wow that was actually so good!

great job, keep it up.

[leakingpen]

nicely done. shoulda let the song complete though....

[LilOilDerrick]

there is a big long stretch of music...not good for animations.

[humdidoadi]

nice video!!

[hoggdawn]

Wow---I was expecting this to be horrible---man, was I surprised---it is great! Keep it up! Perfect interpretation! You rock!

[LilOilDerrick]

hahaha! you expected it to be terrible :P

[Fatsjobatsjo191]

best album evahhhh (i know, it's "ever", i'm just trying to be "hip")

[LilOilDerrick]

hip! i love that word. u suceeded, fatsjo :)

[LilOilDerrick]

i was thinking of making money for nothin, might do it now. was a straits song. oh and ross175? the doctor reminds me of my science teacher from grade 7 and 8 :o

[insainiac33]

lol Walk Of Life would be funny on Paint if you do it at this quality :).

[Ross175]

hahahah this video is funny, i like the doctor

[caramello7knopfler]

Can you make, please, this song by Dire Straits?? -> Money for Nothing???

or What it Is by Mark Knopfler??

Thanks!!

[caramello7knopfler]

I loved it!!!

You're very good in Paint!!! :)

If I have a drawing Studio, you'll work with me!!

dIRE sTRAITS fOREVER!!!

[LilOilDerrick]

thanks...i wish i had a graphics tablet and better animation software though. uni student=poor

[jokingkong]

Dude... you cut out the best part of the song! What happened to the musical ending??? Looks like someone has Industrial Disease.

[LilOilDerrick]

no point adding in a big long line of music...no pics to go with it. sorry if i ruined ur song...if you just wanted to listen to the end, you could always buy the CD or get it off the internet...just a suggestion :O

[LilOilDerrick]

plenty. where it has my name...drop down "more videos from lil oil derrick"

[kalanosanchin]

Genius! Nice work keep it up.

[LilOilDerrick]

thanks!

[MusicAndDrawings]

that's really cool man! ;)

[LilOilDerrick]

i'd like to keep it up....im a bit stuck for a new vid tho *in case u haven't noticed i haven't done one for months now*

[Ilikebikes1200]

Good video. Keep up the good work.

[peutoi]

Yes Yes yes good job. Congratulations!

[swangboo]

Excellent job Derrick! It was a pleasure to watch.

Thank You

[szekelymihai]

great i love the drawings with the doc

[LilOilDerrick]

true very true

[SLACKER614]

we are suffering from post-industrial disease..

[1LBRTY]

Very well done! I liked how well the pictures matched the lyrics and the timing of the song. The simplicity of the cartoons allowed the lyrics to do what good poetry always does...create a picture in the viewer's mind.

[SallyMorem]

Those cartoons are just perfect.

Hilarious! Thanks!

[jaguarguitar]

somewhere in the corridor someone was heard to sneeze - goodness me, goodness me, it was the sneezing panda!

[rayNimagi]

Not bad!

[Jeff2BFit]

Thanks, love the animations, of course your choice in music, and your artistic talent.

[LilOilDerrick]

thank you! :)

[monaco74]

Good job. I was wondering what you were going to draw for "brewer's droop," but you avoided it nicely. ;)

[LilOilDerrick]

ha ha!! i did :D

[Saxonseb]

love it

[guitarninjas]

Haha, that was a good video.

[LilOilDerrick]

uhhh i mean ground control to major tom by david bowie! (couldn't find any mp3s for queen bitch anywhere)ha ha

[LilOilDerrick]

lol sorry Sueezedtight im not good at spelling *pulls hat over eyes* ahem anyway coming soon from LOD is Queen Bitch by David Bowie!

[Sueezedtight]

Quality work Derrick but your spelling leaves a little to be desired, as in its "amateurish" lol

[markisouvlaki]

I love it!

[kazimann]

Classic!

[kelsman59]

Great song, entertaining vid. good job, keep 'em coming.

[TubboMac]

Awesome song to a great video. Keep them coming!

[blindriv3r]

Yep great lyrics, and I just realized, Brewer's Droop was one of the first bands Knopfler was in, I think he met the Dire Straits drummer there "smoker's cough from smoking, brewer's droop from drinking beer"..

[LilOilDerrick]

well spotted blindriv3r, sure was! also, it was sort of a band joke, on how alcohol affects ur sex drive :P

[michaelispan]

Great stuff!

[SLACKER614]

the only cure is SLACKERISM..

[LilOilDerrick]

aww why you say that, slacker?

[SLACKER614]

its the cure for industrial disease...lol

[LilOilDerrick]

wouldn't it make it worse? the only cure for industrial disease is to get rid of the white collar snobs who think they know what's best for everyone.

[LilOilDerrick]

under pressure! will do. i don't have any clash, i have a whole hell of a lot of rancid, but no clash :( under pressure coming up, when i have time -exams atm-

[devin1965]

Trying to think maybe under pressure by queen?Or maybe something by the Clash?

[pastperfecttense]

Goodness me---this is great! Thanks for being bored!

[LilOilDerrick]

lol thank you all :) any requests for my next one?

[devin1965]

HAHA! Great job! I used to have that album when i was in high school and for some reason thought of the song tonight-agree with others that lyrics are very relevant more so today than ever probably-5 stars!

[ukrandr]

Heard this today and remembered how really great this song is.Ace work on the vid, I must say. This song's lyrics will always be relevant. And you know, that's really sad.

[LilOilDerrick]

'tis. i stand shoulder to shoulder with you on that ukrandr.

[eldapp39]

buen tema, dire straits mis respetos

[groovyastrodude]

Excellent video for an excellent song!! Great job, LilOilDerrick!

[TommyDB87MI]

You're a genius!

[buharskiemir]

Great stuff, molodets!

[danpea80]

Splendid, thanks.

[LilOilDerrick]

Lil' Oil Derrick.

[LilOilDerrick]

[housesell]

"They want a war to keep us on our knees..."

How true.

'nuff said.

[Lesrevesdhiver]

Factory work sucks. Thanks for posting this clip and song.

[LilOilDerrick]

[dabluz1125]

Great song...favorite line?

Two men say their Jesus, one of them must be wrong...

[farneyblakeley]

Cool, seems you are the only one with the studio version of this song up and the presentation is fun. This is my 3rd favorite DS song, Thanks

[LilOilDerrick]

LOL thanks for the support guys. hey miketonon, you should do a clip with photos! great idea! but i'll leave it up to you :)

[Robin814]

Well done mate! You did a young dire straits fan proud!

[nick5511]

Great job man, i like it. 5 stars.

[miketonon]

this is good in my opinion. id like to make a real life one showing news articals and such that pertain to the matter, start it off about a hundred years ago and go from there trying to match it up with the song.

[stalka929]

pretty good animation for an ameteur i guess...i couldn't do that well =o

[Westsound191]

SPLENDID!

[xsisax]

very very artistic... nice job... i enjoyed it

[nchiri]

Good stuff! Haven't heard that song in ages.

[nchiri]
