    This is probably the best cover of the song. But the best version of the song I would say is the live version from Alchemy: Dire Straits live. Go and watch that version. Leo's band is called The Frog Leap Band.

    Hi Nikki, greetings from UK
    Yes, like you say, he is so animated and fun to watch. She is also
    I LOVE the tambre of her singing voice, so so good 😊
    The original is an iconic song, but this is great!

    The song was Dire Straits' debut single and reached #4 on the US charts in 1978. It wasn't until 1985 that Money for Nothing was able to top that with 1st place. In Europe they were more successful than in the USA.
    Since then, technology has improved and listening habits have changed. The songs have become much more complex.

    Great reaction. Next Leo reaction should be his cover of Pink's Cover Me with Sunshine. He records it with his daughter ( I think she was around 8 when it was recorded) and the two of them are so adorable. They both rock out and do some serious head banging.

    If you liked this and Africa you have th check out his version of Micheal Jackson's Thriller ua-cam.com/video/E8lLItlcaZI/v-deo.html It's just amazing what he does with it. Also while I'm at it his version of Uptown Funk is solely responsible for the tinnitus that I have now LOL It's simply badass!!!! ua-cam.com/video/PLyFcGKU_f8/v-deo.html
    Leo is so amazingly talented, silly and animated, he's just such a fun watch and a even better listen. I'd give anything to be a one man group like that to be able to play guitar, drums, bass and god knows what else. The man is just killer!!!!

      I love the Dire Straits along with everything I've ever heard by Mark Knopfler. That is how I discovered this cover version, and Leo Moracchioli. I prefer this version of the song and listen to it far more than the Dire Straits version. I know I'm in the minority that feels that way. I know my opinion is blasphemy to Dire Straits fans. I would feel the same way if somebody told me this version is better and I didn't agree. The Dire Straits are great, they made this song and it's a classic. I think Mark Knopfler is a very underrated musician. Everybody has different tastes especially with music. Sometimes you hear something that you are already discounting beforehand, but it changes your mind. It hits you just the right way and you can't explain it, but it's what you like.
