For those wondering, Mark Knopfler wrote the song based of what he overheard verbatim from a real life guy in the hardware (today we'd call it electronics) department of a mid 1980s store. The song is the perspective of this guy and the f in make up and earrings was pretty much supposedly describing Rock Bands like... Dire Straits and guys like Mark Knopfler who basically made "Money for Nothing" who's that "little f he's a millionaire." the more you know.
Нопфлер просто где-то услышал случайно, как какой то мужик говорил "что эти музыканты получают деньги ни за что, ведь это так легко сочинять музыку и торчать в телевизоре", после этого Нопфлер и сочинил данную песню - деньги ни за что 😸

This song has one of the best build-ups of all time. I love those songs that have a really good build-up or better yet a mini-song that comes before the main one. Pink Martini's La Soledad has a piano solo before the main body of the song and it's fantastic to listen to because the anticipation is wild.
Loved this back in the 80s, had the pleasure today of a sound engineer who was installing the sound system in the nightclub i was working in today, using this has a test song. every one needs to hear this as a test tract in a night club lol
Grew up listening to this song. Thanks dad for exposing me to awesome music due to being a teen in the 80’s. It’s hilarious too, especially once you realize that this was based off of an actual conversation overheard by Knopfler between two men in NYC.
One trillion awesome points for the uncensored version 😎 And this was the first time I heard the remastered version. Figures they would find a way to tack on an extra minute or so to the end of the already extended version of the song. Pure awesomeness 😎
Una de las mejores intro de la historia. Y también una de las mejores canciones de todos los tiempos, con ese riff de guitarra inolvidable e inconfundible.🎸🎸❤❤
One thing they should have done (I don't know when I first thought of this.) was have the drums do what you hear in a lot of rock songs, where, in the end, you hear it go from the usual kick/snare to mostly just snares, with occasional kicks. (I asked what it was in another (unrelated) video, and someone said about it being like a buildup.) It would probably be from. 7:33 to 8:00, when you hear the fill, before Sting starts singing.
That digital octave bass and metallic stab sound and metallic chords. I have to admit this is part of the reason I got a DX-5. Monster synth (same internals as DX-1 which was actually used). Wish I could afford the Synclavier, but I have a TX-816 (

Great sound on this post. Always loved this one because Mark Knopfler is mocking how he had to make a living( having to be on MTV with a video) to sell music ( no he's NOT glorifying it). And, as usual, great production/musicianship ( didn't hurt having Sting there either). Long live Dire Straits.
Había un programa en el 104.5 FM de Martínez de la Torre, Veracruz, que solía abrir con esta canción. Se llamaba "El Crepúsculo de los Sueños" y pasaba todos los sábados a las 6 pm. Qué recuerdos.

I wasn't aware that an uncensored version existed until a few weeks ago and I didn't know an eight-an-a-half-minute version existed until just now!
That intro is one of the very best in rock n' roll history, absolute fire!!!
One the best intros to a song ever.
That guitar riff is music Extasy.
It's proper naughty :)

The true version finally. Sorry to anyone offended. But it is what it is
What u mean finally?
@@JimmyJames10-k7v there have been radio stations who will not play this song or mute a word. Before “the woke days “
The full original version will always be my favourite
The version I was brought up on
Hells yes ! I had to look it up. Heard it on radio without ny MTV chant I need my I want my I want my I want my MTV 🎶

I'm gonna create a petition for Mark Knopfler and Sting to get their MTV. It's been 35 years I mean come on.
That riff though! So tasty!
i didn't know that the original song was this long.EPIC
This is a remaster. The original was only seven minutes 😁
@@dennisbenedict5161 INCORRECT.
@@dennisbenedict5161 why would a remaster make a song longer?
my favorite part of the song is 4:10 because it’s like Mark Knopfler does a little David Byrne impression with the “what’s that? Hawaiian noises?”
Fabulous, gaining appreciation for Mark Knopfler and Dire Straits. Great song , the guitar says it all.

Hello. I take it that you're not a fan of censorship?
They didn't "tack on" anything. The original version is 8:26 mins long and was only edited down for the 1LP release and the music video.
such a timeless classic
STILL INCREDIBLE!!!

That Sting's intro ❤️
I just quoted the Sting portion and someone said, "You mean Mark Knopfler, right?" I had to tell them to listen to this.
Una de las mejores intro de la historia. Y también una de las mejores canciones de todos los tiempos, con ese riff de guitarra inolvidable e inconfundible.🎸🎸❤❤
If you were alive/aware of music during this era you would understand
I may be a kid born from 2006, but I can clearly understand the music of this era
@@aebhosor4835 you don't understand the era.. your father wasn't even producing sperm during that era.
That Riff 🤤
Schooldays back in the 80's ...=)
Another awesome song by Dire Straits. "Money for Nothing."
😊
This unedited version is the best and only one to listen to , Class of 1985 .
I’ve hear this song a thousands times and I just realised it’s motherf***ing Sting on the intro and backing vocals!
@MetallicBill thanks ^^
dire straits :So how should we play the intro?
proceeds to cook up the most iconic best intro known to rock
Woohoooo never felt ecstatic over electric guitar the way before,🎸🎸🎸🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯Rock on Mark♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
