  • the song was written in a electrical shop when mark knofler over heard a guy saying some of these things at the TV when a motley crue video came on. hence the jet aeroplane. references to make up and earrings and "faggot" as they looked like girls. THERE.

  • Pai, me empresta a espingarda, para que meu filho vou matar 111 viados que não gostam de Dire Straits, espera que vou com vc.

  • Is what I heard true? That your government (Canada's) tried to tell you what music you should listen to?

  • HE"S A MILLIONAIRE !!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • In the high-pitched voice.

  • @MooseOfReason they said "I want my mtv"

  • @MrMorganFarts2 Thank you.

  • @MooseOfReason no problem :D

  • What were they saying at the beginning about MTV?

  • What a decade that was..what a decade!!!

  • @LegaliseUK why?

  • esses sim são os caras

  • @LegaliseUK LOL I think we got your point clearly. Not a big fan of Sting myself but I never thought he could be this detestable. He must have done something terribly bad to arouse such negative emotions in you. Really curious.;)

  • Best Riff of all the time!

  • 111 people dont have ovens.

  • @LegaliseUK nope never came up. :)

  • i wish i was at this concert 

  • my favorite riff in the whole fucking world

  • @steveboy20028 sultans of swing is better in my opinion , this is so iconic though , good taste mate:)

    

  • @w33fishy sultans of swing is better but there is something that makes Money For Nothing so special to me and especially this live version :D

  • fucking awesome

  • once again the communism of my country disappoints me. God Dammit canada...

  • And the first videoclip on the MTV!!! i'm really falled in love with this song!!! *.*!!

  • this is the FIRST song on MTV europe

  • w marck

    

  • Okay...I'm done moving furniture! I keep losing the REPEAT BUTTON!!! Why won't this just play and play and PLAY IN "LOOP" FORMATION or something....

    I need to hire someone to sit here and hit the repeat button for my listening pleasure!!! This AIN'T WORKING....

  • @ripmev ... how utterly weak is anyone who is so "offended" by a word that they need some government to ban references to it?

  • @ripmev Its because idiots like you using the word offensively that it remains offensive, and shit like this happens. If we just let people be who they are, and didnt try to label them, words like faggot, puff, queen etc wouldnt be classed as offensive.

  • I got TVs to move....color TVs and refrigerators....custom kitchen delivery. Got so much to move....

    I tell you brother....that's his own hair. And, he's a MILLIONNAIRE!!!! I want a helicopter, too! Hey, what's THAT!!! We got to install those microwave ovens....

    I need guitar lessons, first. Look at that YOYO...My Head, My Head is going to EXPLODE!!!! WHERE'S THAT REPLAY BUTTON....THIS AIN'T WORKING!

  • i agree with the top comments:

    if rap stations on the radio can play rap songs with words like mothafucka, bitch, nigga and that sort of thing, and yet, dire straits can't play one of their most famous songs on the radio because it say "faggot"? That, my fellow rock fans, is COMPLETE AND UTTER BULLSHIT! I say fuck the radio station producers in their momma's asses and keep on playing dire straits for as long as people know how to rock on!

  • Who let 111 faggots in here?

  • lots of people are offended by lots of words, and that may be the purpose of those words, but when people realize they are only words..... thats what makes us human

  • M O R E!

  • <3

  • If u want some MUSIC..

    Just pray that u were born in 60's-90's..

    b'coz music in our generation is SUCK>..

    so GAY

  • Damn! I should have been born before!

  • I have a sudden desire to be a kitchen fitter and removal man. Greatest rock moment in history is when the intro ends and guitar begins"

  • ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

  • 109 people have a different taste in music and i respect that. not all of us are perfect

  • @Hobinator17 .... LOL.. one of the wittiest comments I've ever read!

  • Loved this song ever since the first time I heard my dad play it on his record machine growing up. I still go crazy and rock out every time I hear it.

  • 109 people can suck my dick

  • 109 ppl who are working hard and not getting laid. So sad..

  • According to websters the word "faggot" may refer to

    1. A bundle of branches

    2. Slang for a ciggerette

    3. Anyone who wants to ban this song

  • @kyoku1982 you are my hero just for this comment

  • @kyoku1982 "Faggot" is another word for kindling. It used to be thought that homosexuals would be used to stoke the flames of hell.

  • @slack7639 The faggots who thought this song should be banned from Canadian radio are kindling the flames of stupidity.

  • @kyoku1982 I heard this on the radio once, where at that part, the DJ slowed down the speed but kept the correct pitch

  • @kyoku1982 A Faggot is a Queer or Gay Person

  • @FatJud I think that falls under the "anyone who wants to ban this song" definition.

  • Drums kick some ass on the intro, great performance!

  • For Steve B. Ponytrail Long Ago.

  • I want my MTV....Dire Straits...best band ever, hands down!!

  • taking nigger outta huck finn....taking faggot out of dire straits. soon they're gonna white wash history

  • Well. It's okay to walk around with feces on your penis. And spread AIDS and other life threatening desease. But, as soon as someone like Dire Straits sings "FAGGOT" your feeling gets hurt. Get a grip homosexuals. Quit insulting yourselves.

  • #AWESOME!!!!

  • LEGENDS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • The Canadian Govt. has stupid been for years

  • exists is dvd?

  • Comment removed

  • @avidbookreader sorry

    im portuguese

    and my english is a little bad xD

    Mark knopfeler have a dvd in London in 96, exists more? our is the only he have?

  • @xicoloski Please don't worry about the language, my english is not good either. :)

    Yes, beside "A Night in London (96)", there are several other DVDs of Dire Straits/Mark Knopfler. Some are official, some are bootlegs.

    You may check them out on amazon.co.uk for availability.

    I've purchased two official DVDs of Dire Straits: Alchemy & On the Night. Both are great, definitely worth every penny.:)

  • @avidbookreader

    i see dire straits live in paris i think

    is the same concert if the on the nigt but exists a little diference

    my worry is; i buy a dvd for bruce springsteen live in italy in 93 i think, but the quality is very bad

    this dvd have a good quality?

    thank you for read my terrible english:)

  • @xicoloski The quality of On the Night DVD is superb. The image very clear. That's quite normal I think, since It's an official DVD, the high definition clarity is expected.

    This DVD is actually a collection of recordings from two different concerts during their On Every Street tour. One in France (Nimes), one in Holland (Rotterdam). The crowds of these concerts are amazing, so passionate and energetic, really great to watch.:)

  • @xicoloski BTW you can find several video clips of On the Night here at YouTube. All the songs if I am not wrong.

    You and your friend, Romeo and Juliet, Brothers in Arms, Wild Theme (Local Hero) are my favourites in OtN DVD.

    There's also a live CD. It's DS's second live album (Alchemy is the first).

  • see the little faggot with the earings and the makeup yeah buddy that's his own hair x3. there you go the world is still free on u tube anyway !The canadian govt must be a bunch of GAYS ! How dare they !!!!!!

  • Finally! A non-motionless and a happylooking Mark! Great Clip :)

  • After searching and watching all the versions of this song, I can safely say this is by far my favourite. (Though I also enjoy watching the other versions very much.)

    Only wish the image quility was better.

    Take a look at this one (same Wembley 85 Live version, with better image quility):

  • i need 108 bullets

  • you fuckin fuckin fuckin assholes, fuck you

  • Man that guitar sound!! Aaaaaamazing

  • Man, that guitar sound...aaaaaamazing!

  • I want my MTV!

  • okay that drumb solo at the starting intro was the first and the only one that i liked so far :O SICK :D

  • That's some crazy assed drumming at the start. Am I allowed to say crazy, or am I insulting people with mental health issues? Just don't know what to say these days, maybe better to just keep my head down and my mouth shut.

  • @plumtwo Please refrain from "nutjob", "basket-case", "loony-tunes", "loose screws", "loose cannon", "deranged", "idiot", "moron", ...maybe just refrain from communicating and expressing yourself all-together. Everyone happier that way, right?

  • The 1980s back to haunt us again. Why won't you just lay down and die.

  • On behalf of Foghorn Leghorn I resent "the chicks for free" Maybe for ten cents each ai the feed store but NOT for free. No way!

  • Tony Levin: Worlds first Trillion-air... Am I scared about the world economy...I've got Beijing on F**king speed dial...

  • logic fail: I hear (as painted by the song) a disreputable person call someone a faggot therefore i shall also call people faggots

  • haha if anything the content ban has made the straits a couple more million...oh canada were sometimes as stupid as theeeee...states

  • I dont understand why songs with the word 'nigger' in them stay on the radio, where as songs with the word 'faggot' get banned! Pisses me off!

  • @cricket1st What song with the word n%gger is allowed on the radio ?

  • he doesn't even say faggot on this live version. 

  • FUCK YOU CBSC YALL A BUNCH OF FAGGOTS!

  • 01:44 Here comes the Crescendo..!

    Fckn amazing song!! That's music... not the radio tune of todays

  • I hate you CBSC!

  • 2,681838 views says it all!

  • This shows that we don't need broadcast standard bearers, if they believe the message is less important than the words. Calling the holocaust "A fucking travesty" is offensive. Calling Pol Pot "An admirable man who justly punished the enemies of the people." is not in the least offensive.

    Anybody else see something terribly wrong with this?

  • watch?v=46CNp89_52Y

  • you cant ban rap cause the fucking NIGGERS listen to it, and it'd be racist to take off "cop killer" or any other crap like that. But you can't say faggot in yoursong 25 years ago... thats bad... you might offend someone.

    fucking faggots

  • Umm.... I can't even find a version in which he says faggot.

  • He's not even saying faggot here. He changed to "Queenie" I think.

  • fight the power (A).....

  • could not be better for this tune more people have listened than before this all started way to go

  • Better not get banned this sucks Canadians are supposed to be tolerant and respectful to original tracts let them BE it's a great song don't change a thing

  • even if it gets banned every radio station should keep on playin it

  • Oh hey, the song that the one song from UHF was based off of. Still awesome, and what a shame my country did that. Yay for judging yesterday's art by today's standards.

  • man i would love to have seen these live i grew up listening to them my dad loves it now i love them and let my kids listen as often as possible pure 100% musical genius

  • faggot faggot faggot... take that canada! im sure the rap playing on the radio right now is ALOT worse.

  • Go for it Q104 keep playing the song. Next they will want to adjust the Beatles and others. You have my support.

  • Mark Knopfler ! Best Guitar Player Ever ! (;

  • faggots!

  • im going to go to ottawa and find the loudest and bigets speakers i can just to play this song but first im going to newfoundland to piss some one off

  • @pauldjones Hey man I'm from Newfoundland, let me know when your coming, I'll help ya set it up.
