What’s about to happen is the greatest guitar intro of all time.
Pov 6 old me:
🎯
Thunderstruck would beg to differ, but it is pretty awesome.
Facts
@@rudesword2852 Fail
It’s actually physically impossible to stay still while listening to this song 🔥
Hell yeah.
Pov 6 old me;
This and ,"sharp dressed man"' by ZZ Top
this is an objective fact
Yes, my husband keeps fixing me dirty looks. 😂
Mark Knopfler wrote Money for Nothing after overhearing delivery men in a New York department store complain about their jobs while watching MTV, he uses actual quotes.
That makes the song even better. It's one of my favourite music facts!
Crazy Eddie's.
Mark was an amazing lyricist. And guitarist, as well. He stapled Dire Straits. Not only that, but had Sting on this banger, and just made him sing backups. XD what a guy.
@@diannebarnes9405 omg! 😂
@@shanesutterfield9652yeah, Sting does the “I want my MTV” at the start doesn’t he
when he said "what's going on".
I was like ... you'll see. 🤣🤣
Exactly what I said LMAO!!!
Same bro
I was waiting for the drop with such anticipation! Such a good song.
My favorite intro to a song ever
Absolutely
I totally agree!
También Deep Purple made in Japan, el concierto
No, it has to be sirious by alan parsons
My favorite song ua-cam.com/video/wTP2RUD_cL0/v-deo.html
Probably easily one of the best guitar intros of all time. A true masterpiece.
What about drum intro?
@@sasahammer well yeah that too, forgot to mention whoops.
Nothing unites people like classic rock.
I'm so glad we have this platform, so people... young and older people, can discover the miracle of CLASSIC ROCK AND ROLL.
He says oh ok lol 😂
No mate nothing unites people like music.
Music is love
Sting and Mark Knopfler amazing.
That's how you know music is from the Divine...it brings us together, all ages, races, rich, poor...music don't care...it unites us all. ❤❤❤
The stank face you made when you first heard the guitar riff kick in....that’s the same face we made when we heard it back in the day. I had this album (on wax).
Nice 🙂
Yup great times!
Universal! 😀
That's the face I made hearing it 30 seconds ago, lol
For those not in the know, the background vocals and "I want my MTV" was performed by Sting.
They (Knoffler and crew, not sting) came up with the idea for the song while in a department store, watching guys moving a bunch of stuff around and saying they should have been rock stars on MTV instead of busting their humps. 😆
P.S. That guitar on the cover with the metal sound plate is called a "Dobro" and was used by many delta blues guitarists.
This album and the guitar work of Mark Knoffler changed the direction of rock in the 80s, permanently.
It's a resonator American steel ( actually aluminum ) guitar
@@georgesheffield1580 Yup. Similar to Dobro, but different. Both are cool. A Dobro also has a resonator.
Sting wasn’t in the department store with Mark. He happened to be around where they were recording so Mark invited him to record the intro. Sting didn’t write any of the song.
@@rob-c. I wasn't clear and if it sounded like I said Sting was in the store, sorry. "They" being the dire straights guys. I never claimed sting was involved with the song, just that he sang the background, "I want my" stuff. And yup, they were in neighboring studios and Mark said "Hey, man... Wanna work on this with us?" 😉
@@MtnBadger Yeah, it sounded like you meant Mark and Sting when you said 'they'. If you want to be perfectly accurate, it was just Mark - on his own 👍
Thanks for playing the uncensored version of this song.
They self-"censored" in future live versions =)
That lil dagget
The guys he heard talking probably never censored anything.
@@ablestmage context is everything. That's how people talked. It's a story.
Amen. F this PC crap. I'm offended by their offence.
Bro he's feeling this song the exact way it should be felt
Still gives me chills on the intro
No doubt
yep just got them
You should look at the origin of this song. It’s funny as hell. Mark Knopfler, the lead singer was at Montgomery Wards department store and overheard 2 workers talking and this was their conversation as they were watching a Boy George music video on the TV’s lol.
I heard it was Prince
@@raychilkick8657 I heard it was Motley Crue
@@usuallyclueless4477 I heard it was Slim Boy Jones
I heard it was his boss from when he worked at a pawn shop when he was young. The boss was nuts and so he just wrote down the crazy things he would say.
@@Jasondurgen
I heard it was elvis
That whole album is a masterpiece.
Hi from France, yes man !! the best rock album of all times...🤩
I'm old enough to remember this being on MTV as it was new
I was like 2 when it came out, and this music video rocked is one of my earliest memories. The 3d animation blew My pecker off
It was a good time to be Alive. Skating rinks, tall hairspray hair on the ladies, and respect.
Same. My favorite video too because it was basically a cartoon the whole way through.
Yes. When MTV was about the music and bands made great videos.
Try Sultan of Swing!!
My father would occasionally allow us in his HiFi room. Hearing this on his NAIM audio HiFi from vinyl in the 80's was life changing. Telegraph Road, Private Investigations. Life altering.
As a kid who grew up with this music in the modern day, I’m always looking for better ways to listen to these songs. What’s a HiFi room like? Or how does it work?
Brothers in arms as well
@schawangus1996 Well, it was a room in our house that he dedicated solely to his HiFi equipment and record collection.
He collected records and assembled his HiFi from NAIM Audio and Linn Audio.
When I was in my teens we built an addition to the house that was purpose-built for the equipment and had a separate electricity supply from the main house and acoustic features.
It was a great set up for an enthusiast like him. I miss sitting and listening. The world was lost for a while.
@@schawangus I think the most important thing is that the room is arranged such that you can position a pair of proper stereo speakers against one wall, and a listening position in front of them forming a rough equilateral triangle. It doesn't need to be a dedicated room other than that.
@@IsthatyoudermotI need one of those rooms
Your face when that riff first goes off is the exact face one should make when they hear that riff the first time.
Also awesome having Sting on backing vocals on this song
My dad used to play this song when we would drive from the netherlands to spain to visit my grandparents almost 2500 km and nothing but dire straights , QUEEN and julio iglesias 😂... this song is a really fond memory of the many times we drove there he never changed the music and i never cared i love this song because of it
Can’t go wrong with that selection
Disagree, Julio Iglesias ain't rock@@asusic
Zelfde hier😂😂😂 van hieruit naar italie of Oostenrijk hele weg oldschool jaren 70/80 en Dire straits was favoriet❤❤
Bro the “what’s about to happen” killed me 😂😂😂😂😂
me too. hahahahahah. bro is funny!
Fun fact: Sting sang the backup lyrics on this song.
Fun fact: Sting also co-wrote the song!
A better part of the song was what the lead singer over heard in a department store. A couple of employees sitting around talking trash about mtv while watching a wall of TVs. (Back in the day).
Hawaiian noises!
@@Dangerous_Brian Fun maybe, but fact? No. Sting is credited on the song writing because “I want my MTV” is sung to the tune of The Police track “Don’t stand so close to me”. Sting didn’t write any of Money for Nothing.
It is perfect. The long intro and the ending are just amazing
Its great to see the younger gen finding the old greats
Im born 95' and grew up with this and alot of other good stuff - can just say bless my momma for it!
born in 09 and absolutely adore old greats like this found this when i was 8 loved ever since
Like he hasnt heard thus before.
@@deadprivacyI’m 36, and I’ve never heard this song in its entirety until now. I think everyone’s heard clips or pieces, but it’s not out of the realm of possibility for someone to be unfamiliar with the whole thing.
@@xpertdrv4692fr i was born 2010 and thanks to my dad during the rides to daycare, this is what i grew up on
The video was groundbreaking.
That’s Sting singing “ I Want My MTV” and doing the upper harmony.
Mark Knopfler- one of the greatest guitarists and songwriters ever.
Keep rapping to the classics!
My man....I loved the hip hop over this. This is exactly why all music can transcend the masses..no matter what genre you're into!!
someone who actually listens the song in it's entirety and react's after. that's the way you do it!
I forgot how GOOD this song is
Knofler doesn't play the guitar, he allows music to escape from the strings
I have to agree with you on that!
One of my favourite rock songs ever made
Mate.. I'm a 52 year old white guy.. respect mate.. seriously.. I watch a lot of react videos.. they are mostly American.. this is gold 🥇.. stay safe pal 🙏🔥
Hate to admit this, but I had missed Sting singing all the “I want my, I want my’s”. I can’t believe I didn’t notice it before. Once I heard it, can’t unhear it.
Nah bro it wasn’t Sting, it was an 8 bit digital frustrated furniture delivery man. Guess you never saw the video. SMH “Sting” 😂
Bruv fair play with the freestyle 👏 I'm a old skool drum and bass head but I'm also a massive fan of what I call proper music, if I could only listen to 1 band or group for the rest of my life it would be dire straits simply for the magical sounds coming from the strings of Mark knopfler's guitar. I like to see people from different musical backgrounds finding the beauty in music made before electronic synthesisers. Keep it up g.
That intro and that build up to the drum solo and then guitar solo is my favourite of all time, you need to listen to it on full volume with some good headphones.
I grew up with this song man my dad rocked it like every day... great to see its coming around again
Legends. Mark Knopfler one of the greatest guitar players of all time.
Can’t go wrong with Dire Straits. Any of them. All of them. So smooth.
If you want to hear something really seductive from them, try “Follow Me Home” or “Where Do You Think You’re Going”
I will literally watch any and every Dire Straits reaction video. Les Boys? Bring it, MFers.
Money For Nothing is the obvious choice for a reaction video as the iconic Dire Straits song from the mid 80s, but I would always take Brothers in Arms over this.
The story goes that Mark Knofler was looking to duplicate the grinding guitar rift sound and contacted Dusty Hill of ZZ Top to learn how to play this sound. Shout out to Sting of the Police for the haunting background lyrics.
.... God that makes sense
I never clocked that was Sting
Yeah that guitar bit IS very ZZ Top!!!👍👍.....
All the background was Sting? I thought it was just “I want my”. Makes sense.
Fun history fact:
“Brothers in Arms” was the very first album released on CD, ever!
Actually?
@@xakuma176 Let's re-word my post to be "purely accurate" (since I had the gall to say "ever").
Fun history fact:
"Brothers in Arms" was one of the first albums directed at the CD market, and it was a full digital recording (DDD) at a time when most popular music was recorded on analog equipment.
(There, that's better, huh?)🤣😂
This long version is rarely heard by some, brilliant album too. 👊
That "wwww, relaxing" before it all kicks off
Sting has such a haunting tone to his voice
I wish I could go back and listen to this song for the first time again.
When my wife said my unborn child could hear I put headphones on her stomach and played this song. Such a awesome awesome song
The whole album is sublime
I actually LOL’d at this when the intro kicks in. So funny. Legend.
Mark Knopfler is such a phenomenal guitar player.
I am glad you liked it. Great song.
The only intro that still gives me chills listening to... I always have to put this on blast and get lost in the greatest guitar rift opening ever!
K, I really enjoy your reactions to previous Rock music, and I am a huge Rock fan, Thank you for reacting to music I love and still have on my playlist. PLEASE react to "SULTANS OF SWING" (Alchemy Live), the guitar solo is what I want you to enjoy, (and you will). Dire Straits has been with me since the late 70's, I am 70 years old, I have subscribed today, look forward to watching you soon!💯☮
Hey I would like to hear that too. Sultan of Swing. My #1 favorite Dire Straits. I did dig this one 😎👍
It HAS to be the Alchemy Live version. Very different energy and I’d argue that the solo is the goat
After all these years, still fuxxing epic!!!
I have not laughed that hard in years, that was awesome Nathan
It's one of my favorite old bands. And the fact they collaborate with Sting (another top favorite of mine) makes this song top-notch! 🤩😍
Sting from the band The Police is singing backup on this song and the "I want my MTV" parts also
Learn something new everyday 😅
Omg, I can totally hear it now hahahahahhahaha awesome
One of them songs thats perfect in every way.
I'd the same reaction when I listened to Dire Straits for the 1st time.
The live version of this at LiveAid in 84 or 85 is killer.
Mark Knopfler perhaps the most overlooked guitarist of all time. I'm a Page man but Knopfler was a brilliant musician.
He still is.
overlooked by whom??
@@jyesucevitz By my nan. She overlooked him so hard I can still feel the pain to this day, like shock lightning though my soul driven up through the spine to crown the glory of a new born conscious realisation. I still can't forgive her, it haunts me.
What you talking about?? He still makes music and good one too, although his style has changed from the dire straits times.
Fun facts: Sting actually did the vocals for the "I want my MTV" & other parts of the song & it perfectly balances with Knopfler's deep vocals. Also, Sting slightly modified the chorus from his own song "Don't Stand So Close To Me" for this, if you listen to the "I want my MTV" alongside "Don't stand so close to me", it's immediately obvious. Such an awesome, classic collaboration & I love that crunchy guitar.
Your fresh and sincere responses are so precious. We loved these tunes since we were kids. This is about how we listened to it our first times, decades ago.
My all time favourite rock song, this was mega back in the day.
Luv watching you bro, 👍you take me back, I had a buddy called Gemal who you remind me of..😍 1973, he introduced me to Motown, I introduced him to Pink Floyd...we where 13...🤣🤣🤣
Got my dad's records from the 80's. I feel blessed to be raised with amazing music. Blasting this in a car in the summer is iconic.
It was 1998! My twin brother and I were 9 years old, in the backseat of our Mums' car! She played this song, and the intro blew us away!! Such an awesome song!!
FYI, That particular song was the 2nd song played on Mtv when it launched back in 1980. I was there.
One of the most iconic riffs in rock history 🤘🏻
Another brilliant reaction man.
If you want to see the best example of how to play a dead clean Strat check out Dire Straights - Sultans of Swing - Live Alchemy Tour😉
Mark’s finger picking ability is second to none.
Seconded
@@PatrickKline without a pick eh!
Love that song, but somehow never seen that performance before. Good Lord. That was incredible. I had to come back to say thanks!
In 1984 I was 10. I become determined to master the learning of English while listening to this song mostly because of the video and the fact that i didn’t understand a thing at all. I OWE my life to this song!
I have to say. Money for nothing can be a really good instrumental for rap songs.
I was afraid you were just going to react but instead you also drop some sick bars in it! Cool 😎 curious about other classics will listen too.
You are raccist.
Listen to the Deep Dish remixes
In as much as I love the guitar intro, it's not until the drums and bass enter the fold and particularly those long simple bass notes that really lock the groove down.
You are a GREAT MAN, please go on with this
Great Car driving song as big intro is so cool.
You're so funny... I discovered you tonight, and I'm already a big fan 😂❤️. Hope you recognized the high voice... Sting ! Love from France 🇫🇷😘
I liked your freestyle rap at the end. Proper!
Sorry for the WICKED late comment, but I 100% LOVE your reaction and comments to Dire Straights "I want my MTV" and to "White winged dove" by Stevie Nicks!!!!! Much love from Boston - Out, LP
on of the best intros in modern pop/rock music
I never knew I needed to hear freestyle rap over Money for Nothing, but there you go and here we are.
You don’t know how cool it feels to watch these videos man! Especially when your a young man from North Carolina and you already know all these bangers 🔥
Came straight from a tik tok, loved your reaction lol
2:16 yeah bra, we know the feel hits like a brick. That rift is dirtier than my browser history 🦠 🎸
You need to do reaction to the music video for money for nothing for me it’s the greatest music video of all time. Also the first ever music video played on mtv Europe back in 1985 and was first computerised music video ever. Definitely one of most iconic guitar riffs of all time and if not the most iconic guitar riff of the 80s
Agreed! Also, Weird Al did a parody called "Beverly Hillbillies"
Sting being on this track, to me, is one of the greatest features of all time. I was 7 when this dropped.
“Whats about to happen”? Only the greatest guitar intro in rock history
Nathan Brown Music I love your reactions. Glad I found you!
Mark Knopfler was born left handed and taught himself how to play right handed without a pick. These guy's rock still to this day!
@2:23 is literally the Chapelle skit with John Mayer in the barber shop 😂😂
He would put the long intro version on haha he was puzzled at first lol.
Ticktok brought me here over an hour and a half ago..... im still here brav. Your content is 🔥
Turn up the volume!! Woohoooooo!!! Feel the drop!!!
That's such a cool idea to freestyle over the beat from the song you're reaction to in the video haha, I'm surprised noone else has thought of that. Earned a sub for the sheer creativity
YOU understand how many days of life this song has got me through? Just pissed? put this on. You get a confidence.
This was when MTV was the bomb! I was 14 years old when I first heard this song and MTV first came out. Best music Evah!
After 2:08 , I feel like I’m the strongest man alive who can do anything
Not only who can, but who must.
@ that hits deep bro
Need to re-experience it with the 80's computer animation video...
One of the best guitar riffs of all time
Rap when it discovers rock, rock when it discovers jazz, and jazz already knows classic.
This was great! I love seeing you express what we are all feeling listening to this song. It's awesome. I enjoyed this one very much. I have liked this song since I was a little girl back in the 80's. It really is. Great tune 👍 and that intro is the bomb.
Best reaction channel right now, keep it up brother! I love your reaction and I love this song.
The male background singer is Sting.
My favorite thing about the particular word used in the lyrics, is used to described themselves; the people singing are the band's critics, and it's like they are quoting their critics into song form. They are the band that the lyrics criticize, so the particular word people get hung up on, is directed toward themselves =)
Best drum intro ever and best guitar intro as well ...
Don't stand, don't stand, don't stand to close to me!--Sting!
Which is of course also a fantastic song!
