    Wonderful. As a high schooler, I listened to this song. In So Cal, I heard Johnny Cash and Dolly, Frank, Merle, and George (Strait and Jones). etc. But as a rock fan, this song breached the divide for me. I realized that the songs I liked the most from Dire Straits and the Rolling Stones were their most "country" songs. (Wild Wild Horses, etc.). I love this cover too.

    Thanks! You made a nice job of this, without a doubt the guy Mark wrote those lyrics about is another, just like you 'set the scene' in this video. You did a nice job with the song, and the bit of a dance routine at the end tied things up nicely. As another old guy who sometime gets a one-nighter in places like this, I think you got it just right. props from the west of the Great White North. Apart from anything else, it looks like you had fun making this! Which is what matters and makes it worthwhile. Cheers!
