NOW LOOK AT THEM YO-YOS
SEE THE LITTLE FAGGOT?
I never understood this song, were Dire Straits mocking themselves and saying they don't deserve their money?

THAT'S THE WAY YOU DO IT
>tfw you used to dislike Dire straits because this song and Walk of Life were overplayed to hell
>then you listened to Love over Gold and Making Movies and found out they are pretty great
>According to Knopfler, he was in New York and stopped by an appliance store. At the back of the store, they had a wall of TVs which were all tuned to MTV. Knopfler said there was a man working there dressed in a baseball cap, work boots, and a checkered shirt delivering boxes who was standing next to him watching. As they were standing there watching MTV, Knopfler remembers the man coming up with lines such as "what are those, Hawaiian noises?...that ain't workin'," etc. Knopfler asked for a pen to write some of these lines down and then eventually put those words to music.

I think it was a song about the propensity of the common man to glorify the rock and roll lifestyle, when in fact it is not as glamorous as people make it out to be.
I want my...
I want my MTV...

He's referring to Van Halen I always thought.
