I think "like" buttons should be more bold and bigger to attract more attention, because clearly the people who disliked this video were deeply confused in which button to press...
when i was growing up i think my dad based all his parenting on this song, always told me to learn how to play the guitar soo you always have a backup plan
I'm only 14 and Mark Knopfler is my hero! He has never made a bad song, ever! His new solo work is also so creative and amazing! Long live real music!
I'm a 19 year old and it upsets me when I whack this on the jukebox in my local, for them to ask 'what this shit is'....the next request is 'Nikki Minaj'.....no taste!!!
Lyrics are about an experience Mark had in a store where all the TVs were tuned to MTV. A delivery man voiced his opinions about people on MTV and Mark wrote it all down. =P
@animelover5076 There are still some guitar players who can play good solos, check out the lead guitarist of Arch Enemy (you probably won't like, it's Melodeath but whatever) his solos are really great
@SuperBaldKid you call some shit comment publicity fool? You are a moron for replying. do you think all of this is going to result in some JB memorabilia sale?
Song stuck in head = 3 days.... couldn't name it... pissed me off to all hell... then my Indian friend recognized me whistling it.... led me here... now im here and in full of awesome! thank you Indian friend!
Marvelous Song! I used to wake to this every Saturday morning in the barracks in Korea at 700 Watts from 2 floors up. I despise the "Politically Correct" radio version that eliminates the poke at assholes from 2:50 to 3:05. I think the censors in Korea pioneered the PC version. If you buy this album on the Korean economy 2:50-3:05 are simply missing. Of course the same censors banned "Back to the Future" as incestuous. WIERD!
@marshalrox I apologize you are correct. You can "like" and "dislike" the video and I did not realize the thumbs on comments were called something else. But regardless, you can show "approval" or "disapproval" for a comment whichever way you slice it and that was my point.
@jackm41615 You faggots do this shit every year... you are a cyber whore and only base your online worth on your thumbs up... The little faggot with his Youtube post, he needs his thumbs up in his Y-O-U-T-U-B-E
My earliest memories were playing with my tonka toy on the beach and jumping off my parents bed playing air guitar to this song! Many thanks to my older borther, sister and the 80's.
With all the Jersey Shores, The Hills, Teen moms, Hogan Knows Best and 35% commercial air time, of today I kind of doubt anyone remembers what the "M" in "MTV" stood for... Seriously! ...Anyone...??
