Love that song.....
But favourite is still....Money for nothing and your chicks for free.......
While Dire Straits made some real nice music . . . please tcoggs, don't ever mention Dark side of the moon in the same breath as a jokey little song that appealed to more 5 yr olds ( film clip, and the words MTV) than serious music listeners. That track was a travesty to the many great songs the Straits put out before it.
Mind you, it was THE reason that the Brothers in arms album sold the way it did.

Why worry ...Ride across the river...The Mans to strong and ...your latest trick ..were all far better than MTV ...but I suppose if people can like Mambo number 5 anything’s possible

A mate and I took our toys to sell at a trash and treasure market the year that song came out. We played it on our cassette deck on repeat to rev up potential buyers and so many people wanted to buy just that tape deck.

While the song is shallow compared to their usual offerings, it is exactly what they set out to do and they absolutely killed it. The song was such a great piss take on the MTV pop rock of the time that it actually is the epitome of that genre for that year. I think it shows how great they were, to be able to mock something and own it at the same time. Imagine saying the word twig in a radio song these days. And that main riff is still epic to this day.

Maybe get a blister on your little finger
Maybe get a blister on your thumb
We've got to install microwave ovens
Custom kitchen deliveries
We've got to move these refrigerators
We've got to move these color TV's
We've got to install microwave ovens
Custom kitchen deliveries
We've got to move these refrigerators
We've got to move these color TV's
I shoulda learned to play the guitar
I shoulda learned to play them drums
Look at that mama, she got it stickin' in the camera

And he's up there, what's that? Hawaiian noises?
He's bangin' on the bongos like a chimpanzee
Oh, that ain't workin', that's the way you do it
Get your money for nothin', get your chicks for free
We've got to install microwave ovens
Custom kitchen deliveries
We've got to move these refrigerators
We've got to move these color TV's
Listen here
Now, that ain't workin' that's the way you do it
You play the guitar on the MTV
That ain't workin' that's the way you do it
Money for nothin' and your chicks for free
Money for nothin'
And the chicks for free
Get your money for nothin'
And your chicks for free
Look at that, look at that
Get your money for nothin' (I want my, I want my)
And your chicks for free (I want my MTV)
Get your money for nothin' (I want my, I want my)
And your chicks for free

Still have got the vinyl album Dark Side Of The Moon Rosco.
Brothers in Arms DVD as well..
But....worst song ever by Dire Straits (my fave band by the way) was TWISTING BY THE POOL.....What a horrible song that was.

Once the Roosters want someone gone, they do it quickly.

Hes contracted there for next year, they say he wont be offered an extension.

They make it pretty clear dont they?

Its getting interesting now.

Roosters wont release LM to Souths, GC now dont want to release Jai Arrow.

So, GC cant make spacer for LM and it looks like noone wants LM.

I think we do, but he has to show Madge he wants to be here as well. He hasn't to date, from what I can see.

Let's just wait and see what happens. He is the exact type of player that we need if he performs but any player on $1 million is a risk.
