DIRE STRAITS - MONEY FOR NOTHING

[Montaignely]

Mark Knopfler doesn't need a goddamn pick.

[NYerintransit]

I want my, I want my, I want my own TV.

[Tifflina2]

Just got back from HMS Raleigh in Plymouth ( I did my Naval Acquaintance With the sea cadets) on our 8 hr drive back, in our Felixstowe mini-bus, we listened to this song like 4 times.

[WolfieTed]

@Tifflina2 Nice, I trained in Raleigh, Cuningham 23! Will never forget anything about it. some memories are less fond, for example the Welsh guy who had the worst gas in the world. 8 weeks I had to sleep in the bed by his...8 weeks of breath holding!

[maciejoz1]

POLSKA PRZEJMUJEMY TEN KLIP

[Horsieeegirl]

I hear my name in the beginning of this song, LOL xD

[donbehatin]

@Horsieeegirl Your name is MTV?

[Horsieeegirl]

@donbehatin No, it's Marjontien ;D That's what I heard in the beginning of the song: "I want Marjontien" xD

[Stormwarrior98]

1:31 baby quiero queso roñoso .___.

[TheCrackerBrony]

u all came here for 0:39

[MickMoliTaR]

oh yeah beby so brasillllll

[KnightOfDay1120]

0:37 to 1:07

[tigerland831]

can not be heard in the background sometimes Sting ????

[sonofshinobione]

@tigerland831 The song was apparently co-written with sting, so probably...

[samueldenson1]

music was so creative back then what happened

[samueldenson1]

you can't say faggot anymore the glaad police will get you

[movieman104]

some people born after 89 will proably think they had micrawave back ovens back in 89? woah lol

[marshill88]

OBAMA'S THEME SONG!

[Habduggas]

At 0:38, honestly, I feel like if i was coming from a explosion behind me, and walking with my girlfriend and my weapon like a boss. Who else?

[ragwoodfox]

the little faggot line is actually in reference to themselves and how non-rocking "working class" people perceived them

[Dragonmantis36]

those faggots aint dumb.

[JPMcFly1985]

"We've got to move these COLOR TVs" - who was still using black & white sets by 1985? LMAO. I grew up in the 80s and don't recall them, although a few were probably still around.

That's like saying "remote control TVs" in 2012.

[awerzsxdh]

@JPMcFly1985 i had a B&W up to the 90's

[JPMcFly1985]

@awerzsxdh Oh yeah, I suppose they were manufactured through the 70s, so it stands to reason a few were still around in a secondary way. It does sound funny in context of the song.

[Whatwon1]

@JPMcFly1985 No, it's not like saying that, douche.

[dougsher]

@JPMcFly1985 They were much more common in England. I was born in 1966 and I clearly remember getting a colour TV when I was about 8....but I as a teenager I had a black & white portable TV in my room. Strange memories....and the word faggot I always understood it as someone scruffy and lazy until I was introduced to American English.

[lorenei]

@JPMcFly1985 I still remember black and white TV's and I was born in 87.

[LovelyLiqua]

@lorenei i had a black n white tv, i was born in 1988 ^_^

[dubielarmando]

sublime e inigualable, lo mejor

[barbosa4133]

remenber ps1

[bryant5266]

Is that Sting singing?

[Zazalahyene]

@bryant5266 yeah!:)

[LSDizzys]

dire straits rock and they're not for fags.

[tankerjd66442]

all rise for the GREATEST DRUM intro EVAAARRR

[goldiefer2012]

[TheCAD66]

59 people are justin bieber fans

[KSNDR220]

w minecraftcie jest lepsza jakość xD

[VonPytonek]

This good Song !!!! Electric guitar :D VERY GOOD

[mattanaih]

anybody remember when MTV actually played music videos?

[ThePunta1986]

@mattanaih barely :((

[oldVideoGamesChannel]

@mattanaih you mean back in the 70's and early 80's?, I wasn't even born yet.

[TheCreepsAreAlright]

Oh, the irony. One of the biggest music videos in the mid-80's on MTV, while the song itself protested it. I'm lovin' it.

[JumperAce]

better graphics than mw3

[metalheadk93]

@JumperAce Lol don't u mean minecraft ;p

[Thelonesniper101]

@JumperAce No. Just... No.

[sportsygirl8]

I added a video response because I got live footage of the parody of this song called Monkeys For Uncles by ApologetiX

[ElBandido54]

LOL music videos on mtv..

[raisinbran1605]

At least they didn't edit the entire verse out of the song like some butthole did on another copy of this video on yt

[deadcrowes19]

I want my MTV back, what the hell happened to headbanger's ball?!

[sidaolubi]

Que maravilha essa musica (a Brazilian)

[TheAaron1375]

When he is talking about the 'little faggot' he is referring to how people refer to him. The whole point of the song is that he is singing about how others perceive rock musicians. The song is over 20 years old, if you haven't caught on to this point now you seriously don't get anything.

[Phantom6051]

@TheAaron1375 no chance try the black economy listen to the lyrics

[PFJ2999]

@TheAaron1375

This song was written about the band motley crue

[BlkDarkness]

WHO GIVES A FUCK WHAT HE SAID!!!!! I CAME HERE TO SEE HOW FAR WE'VE COME WITH CGI ANIMATION THESE PAST FEW DECADES!!!!

[Mega420kmk]

i smoked a big huge bowl to this song!!

[allhailrussell]

@Mega420kmk im smokin roaches to it

[ldit1]

i love this song

[wimpyliberalbuster32]

When he's talking about the "Little Faggot" the name of the video they show is "Baby, Baby." Coincidence? I think not.

[clamburgerler]

REBOOT!

[marzilyas]

Sting is singing on this

[marzilyas]

when he's talking about "that little faggot," he's probably talking about George Michael.

[MetalMike80]

I just heard this on the radio.

[WelakaWombat]

Let's all be honest here. In 2012 there is NO way this song would get air play.. saying faggot is akin to saying nigger these days.. Only blacks can say nigger and gays can only say fag (not in my world here in S. Florida Everglades)

[ostojaification]

galactic perfection

[AnimeFan2236]

This was animated by MAINFRAME Entertainment (now known as Rainmaker Entertainment). This company were the ones that helped with the animation on the show ReBoot.

[AttackFabriz]

When they say "The little faggot" they're talking about Justin Bieber, they can tell the future.

[WelakaWombat]

@AttackFabriz I ain't gonna lie.. I laughed out loud at that shit

[radtke1965]

@AttackFabriz Thats hOt!!

[KingOfBBQ]

@AttackFabriz

You're a faggot for copying that comment that someone else made a few months ago to get thumbs up. Your life must suck if you care so much about getting attention for Youtube comments.

[ilovethe80stoo]

@AttackFabriz Copycat! I made that comment a looonnnngggg ass time ago!

[kanyon842]

@AttackFabriz Haha. That made me really lol.

[CaSpErIMP]

@AttackFabriz Coincidence the song at that part is titled "Baby, Baby"? I think not.

[misterdomination256]

@AttackFabriz lmao

[IndygoEEI]

Someone needs to remake the vid and I don't mean reupload.

[andopando2147]

that little fagit is justin biber

[ostojaification]

@andopando2147 ha ha ha ha ha ha that s true

[javafraps]

Did you guys see the name of the song on the TV. "Baby, Baby" is it JUSTIN BIEBER?!?!?!?

[javafraps]

UHF

[JavieraPaz1]

Baby quiero queso roñoso. 1:33

[Howtofeedapenguin]

When Notch watched this video his brain had a spark and thus Minecraft was born.

[webmaster2247]

55 people are millionare faggots

[Taraalcar]

Great riff or greatest riff?

[MysticDMBherb]

@4dvent you suck horribly 

[HYDRAdude]

@4dvent Well, it looks like you are a little faggot then.

[thespartan95]

@4dvent u mad bro?

[MonsterTaupe]

@controversialist01 Y U fucking look for this GREAT song if you think it is shit?? that´s why your name is controversialist, isn´t it asshole?? this is one of the greatest hits of all time

[24canidkasi]

@controversialist01 16 hours and so much negatives?. You are trollfag, sorry

[loweydude220]

The 2 blocky people look like Scout and Heavy from TF2

[RuggedSavior]

Facebook sent me here. This song was Number 1 on Oct. 7, 1985 lol.

[hobodeadfish]

its like the white sandford and son

[CRWrestlingfan]

remember when MTV used to show music videos? like these days

[VirgLondon2]

In the search results, it was a choice between the VEVO video or this! And of course anything other than vevo shit will always win.

[Thurzotron]

One of the most recognized guitar riffs around the world I think. Knopfler smashes faces with his fingers on the fretboard

[renan19923111]

Minecraft musical

[nazcarmaster]

That ain't workin'.

[cloudpaladin]

notice the little faggot has a song named 'baby baby'. coincidence? i think not.

[jimmyjames6440]

@cloudpaladin Lol!!!! you wrong for that!!

[qtpysusie54]

Mark Knopfler forever!

[Bandalheira2000]

please report it

/watch?v=MTKc1N0QEUA

this is plagiarism

[Danielt104]

That little faggot? Wow, I didn't know Justin Bieber was alive back then!

[ewwwhe]

I LOVE SKYVA

[NithrynxOnYT]

Juste énorme.

[ScottyTheBullet]

This song was at the top of the charts when I was born.

[TheDaddycoool]

Dire Straits forever! When you take the last trip across universe to the other side, the first music you will hear over there is Dire Straits... all the songs are in my head... when they cut my brain up, they will find CD;s with Dire Straits.

[Dinman880]

best dire strait song ever along with brothers in arms

[ilovethe80stoo]

The little 'faggot' he was talkin about is Bieber.

[atoman9865]

So retro! Love it!

[phantompanic]

WOW! They had Minecraft back then?

[hubbaman9885]

@phantompanic Early CGI, which was introduced in the '80's, this was the first music video to incorporate that. It being 1985, this was pretty ahead of its time back then.

[x0druid0x]

@phantompanic gotta love 8 bit graphics ;)

[x0druid0x]

@phantompanic sorry 16 bit lol

[phantompanic]

@x0druid0x Then I got 16 bits of money for nothing! :)

[x0druid0x]

@phantompanic money for nothing is never a bad thing :D

[loweydude220]

@phantompanic Looks like a blocky Scout and Heavy from TF2

[frank6717]

There are 52 jojo's

[somorastik]

LIGHTSABER EFFECT :-D

[PredoLionBelmolth]

THANKS DAD FOR SHOW ME THIS FUCKIN' BAND!!! Oh God... I Love my dad :3

[raqrelph]

We are really seeing the truth behind this song lately. It takes about 10 minutes for most of these "musicians" (if you can even call them that) lately to write what is coming out these days, where as it took probably near 10 years for a real musician like Mark Knopfler, Sting, and the rest of the band to learn their instruments. Hell, it takes longer to perfect this song on Guitar Hero than it does to write some of the crap out there today! WAKE UP WORLD!

[RaceOfAce]

This song is so true.

[MrJOAOMJ]

FANTÁSTICO



[webmaster2247]

KISS THEIR BUTT WEIRD AL

[xupinpe]

00:38 - the moment you close your eyes and play your invisible guitar.. shaking like angus

[ninnefinne69]

-"@mtv"_



[JanFromPolska]

Can I get thumbs up for nothing ?

Polacy przejmujemy ten film!!!

[t0nito]

@JanFromPolska No...

[sylas44]

@JanFromPolska Jak ja nie rozumiem takich dzieci! Co ma na celu to wieśniackie przejmowanie wszystkich filmów?

[emer7s]

solówka na gitarze z początku kawałka wymiata :D

[usranger76]

Ron Paul 2012

[oGatekeeper]

@usranger76 I don't like cults

[Oncheoncheparty123]

It was I who taught Mark Knopfler how to play the guitar. He never thanked me back...

[DeJay323]

Dat guitar solo!

[tommoyanks]

The little faggot, he's a millionaire.

[oGatekeeper]

@tommoyanks End Fagotry 

[Grizz72875]

@tommoyanks they took this lyric out on radios where I am from. Politically correct LOSERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Needless to say I no longer listen to that station.

[screwdigitaldish]

@tommoyanks Yeah buddy, thats his own hair.

[ArmTheHomeless86]

Course nowadays it'd be "I want my Jersey Shore"

[ILikeKiks]

Start @ 0:38 :)

[rock6heavy]

cancion legendaria !! Dire straits are the best !!

[flashdesunamic]

This is exactly how I feel about television today. I want my MTV! Back to the 80's!!!

[raqrelph]

@flashdesunamic While I agree that MTV was way better in the day, aren't they saying that MTV is the death of music? That it's all about looks now, rather than talent?

[kmoulton666]

i want my...i want my...i want my mtv <3

[HahaDadaFilms]

@kmoulton666 when MTv was decent...

[sT33517]

damn. microwaves... color tv.... THAT's my wOrK :D :D

[0wc4]

I was ten. In my grandpa's old house, there was jukebox left by my father's deceased brother. It took me 8 years to remember to find the song I was playing in his room on full volume with windows wide open. Yeah, it was Money for nothing.

I'm almost 22 now and I might have some better memories of my life, but this one smells of summer vacation and is the most memorable memory I've got. I don't listen to this song often, but when I do, boy, it's one of the best feelings you can imagine :-)

[KscreamD]

This wont never get old!!!!!

[ocarina2boy]

Only thing I don't like about the song is the lyrics.

[tap22]

Billy Gibbons is such a legend, he taught Mark Knopfler how to get that really fuzzy techno tone sound out of a guitar!!!!

[sonikbraah]

i cannot believe how music like this is non existent now.. go the awesome 80s!

[Loshermanospoco]

First animated video on the MTV

[weedkamp]

The coolest headband I have ever witnessed being worn in the history of the universe.
