  • nothing like listening to this song before a workout always pumps me up

  • beginning 1:12

    for fans 0:00

  • I love this song but as for me, I want my MTV off air... MTV died in the early 90's.. :(

  • epic guitar intro

  • MTV

  • Michael Jackson must have been pissed after hearing this song.

  • Comment removed

  • 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...

  • Great drum entrance!

  • I liked the version by "Weird Al Yankovk" better

  • @evilbuddyp you must like to suck dick you faggot.

  • The single most era-defining song from the 80's.

    Mark Knopfler, a true poet and guitar wizard.

    Sadly we don't have icons like that in mainstream music nowadays.

  • i'm 16 and i dind't knew about the band now i love it! man its great, every sigle song

  • @FNR1996 You can tell you're 16. You need to go back to school and learn to spell. Good on you for liking one HELL of a music group though.

  • 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

  • cant....get...enough of this song!!! real music.!

  • I want my MTV so badly...

  • Thumbs up if you're stupid motherfucker and actually fall for this shit

  • @SissyNekoBoi so what kind of music do you like?

  • @CumOrDie Wus talking about people who click thumbs up comments, not the music.

  • @SissyNekoBoi Okay, I first thought you want to say that the music is crap because that would have been dumb

  • The best intro ever !

  • WOW !

  • 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!

  • @accadaccasuperstar Wow someone who's 14 and likes dire straits, you'll go far kid

  • best fucking riff ever!!!

  • ONE M0:00RE TIME!

  • this is right addictive to listen to! 

  • epic moment in 1:36

  • that moment in 1:40 perfect for lightin' up a Doooooobie <3

  • This song still holds true as it did back in the 80s. "Money for nothing, and your chicks for free". That sounds like every show on MTV.

  • Ok, now my little two year-old sister is headbanging to this :D

  • @timotallgren Awesome XD

  • Mark Knopfler is God.......

  • I thought he said "I want my own TV"

  • 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!!!

  • One of the few songs I'll pump that isn't a Sow Jam or Hip Hop for my other friends!

  • I WANT MY NINETIES MTV BACK!!!

  • 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

  • Good to hear that the lyrics are uncensored. Up here in Canada, a few radio stations have taken to censoring out the "faggot" bits.

  • @CamDemon Down here below ya too

  • :D play the guitar fore the mtv :D

  • damn, this lyrics are about TODAY's music, dire straits were visionaires :O

  • eargasm

  • Thumbs up If you're listening to this in 1985 cause ur a fucking time traveler!

  • AWESOME 80'S ROCK PIECE!

  • FUCK YA

  • i miss the days when playing a gitair beautifully sounded just like this and it wasnt all about how fast you can play.

  • @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

  • awesome song

  • Great Sound of Guitar

  • Thumbs up if you're listening to this in 2477 and you're a time-traveling boss.

  • gimme this album version all day

  • I remember the first time I heard that guitar.

    Fuckin CHILLS. Still get 'em

  • always loved dire straits.

  • i turned on that song during a rihanna presentation OH YEAH! the girl's pissed off but who cares everybody should rock to this song.

  • Thumbs up if you come here from The Simpsons

  • So the lesson is that MTV did have good music... before justin bieber, lady gaga and bruno mars crap!

  • im i the only person that wants that guitar so bad ? :D it looks so cool nothing compared to the painting on my SG

  • This song is a sad reminder of the greatness MTV once was prior to selling out to reality tv.

  • As loud as I am cranking this song now, I sure wish I could turn it up even more- you can't play this song loud enough no matter how hard you try!

  • Epic song, shame i'm only 13 and I grew up with s*** music :(

  • @gamesandrandomvids Me2 i hate all the crap MTV is providing... i wish the real music would come back! 60´s, 70´s, 80´s, 90´s!

  • I'm excited that they didn't censor faggot... I forgot that verse.

  • 59 persons died to hear a guitar intro so epic

  • 1:36

    

  • 0:36

    

  • Banging on the "like" button like a chimpanzee

  • im thinkin' about it to buy a 69' Dodge Charger and drive along american highways :D

  • @FBMToW2 I was driving my Mustang listening to this. felt like a boss

  • "that little faggot hes a millionaire"

    1980's and Dire Straits knew about Justin Bieber...

  • @Bunkerlab19 please for fucks sake stop giving that little shit publicity

  • @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?

  • @Bunkerlab19 ahahahh so true ;)

  • @TroubleMan21C 45 here and I bought this the same day I first heard it in 85! It's still one of my stereo "reference" tracks!

  • @loccoptic I'm not saying all music sucks now, but "times" were definitely VERY different in the 80's, and the music shows!

  • @loccoptic if you read this comment in 2012, screw ur 2012

  • I played this song for my friend, he said it sounded like a kid playing the guitar his first time poorly, we are not friends anymore...

  • Miss the 80s when MTV played some GREAT stuff. Sorry, but I don't care about them idiots in New Jersey and what they do to live a screwed up life.

  • Comment removed

  • this is my favourite song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • 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!

  • I don't know exactly, but maybe this is my favourite song of the rock music!

  • 1:36 is best gutiar solo ever in gutiar hero warriors off rock man love this song theentire thing off it

  • God I love this song. Holy shit, that fuckin guitar!

  • 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!

  • Best guitar intro ever!

  • when the world end s at 1:36 thats when the wrold will end epic way 2 go

  • Like if your still listing to this in 2012!

  • @jackm41615 jokes on you cant like comments

  • @marshalrox really? cause I just disliked yours.

  • @DAMNLAMA if you werent retarded you would know its called vote down this aint facebook

  • @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.

  • @DAMNLAMA yes well... im still right

  • @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

  • @CWFRage you need a glass of warm milk and a nap and then go back inside your cave.

  • @skypilot722 You need to suck a dick because that replay didn't resemble anything close to a comeback

  • 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.

  • Theres nothing like hopping in a Trans Am and putting this song full blast while you go for a cruise. I highly recommend it.

  • 1:36-2:04 The most epic thing I've heard in 2012, tfu, throughout life.

  • 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...??
