I remember watching the videos from this album as breaks between movies on the first pay TV channel in Canada. This takes me back. Exquisite sense of nostalgia.
I am from Africa used to listen to this group for the past 30 years since my high school years. I have a vast collection of music from this grup. I love Dire Straits. 👌👌👌👌
Roller Girl from "Boogie Nights". The guy who wrote the script for that movie probably remembered this song, and created the character based on a memory of this video
That light chucking guitar rhythm with the hi-hat/snare drum beat and piano blend so well. And those subtle country guitar bends. I get lost in the fade out. I just want it to go on and on. * GNS on Twitter
This video came out during the early years of MTV and those years will forever be the best years of MTV! Starting in the early 90s MTV took a nosedive to which it has never recovered from.
One of the most underated guitarists of all time. In my Opinion 1)Johnny Marr 2).Marc Knoffler 3) Jimi Hendrix There are many other greats but these are my top 3.
I could play this song for 5 hours and not get tired of it!

This man will go down as one of the best things to ever happen to rock.
I saw this way back in the 80s on Night Flight. They played this one and few other videos from that album.

I love this song, his use of space when he improvised in the outro is just beautiful
Dire Straits will grow on you as you grow through the travails of life. Then you realize the greatness, especially in the songwriting.
Their best song💓
No matter what he sings, I cry!!!😢🎶🎵🎶🌈🛼🛼

WHY didn't they give this song so much deserved "airplay" when it was released? 1980s radio just totally rocked, under rated band, and song!
This is skateaway not making movies
Phenomenal !
Banger of a tune
This is perfection.
i became boss, but here's the Nodes: Life,MV,GT
It's not a Making Movies...the original title of this song is "Skateaway" ;)
Cheers
OOPS we stand corrected! :)
Remember this
Thought he was painting him Self in2 a Corner...
Same thought came back just in the first 20 seconds
Hey genius, this is very pedestrian. Cash checks and get baked, mate.
Why has Scorsese not used this in a soundtrack.
