If so, I'm sorry to make you all listen to it again.] A friend of mine just gave me a big insight in the new Dire Straits hit "Making Money for Nothing." It seems that the lead singer for Dire Straits (sorry I don't know his name) was in an appliance store and he overheard two people who worked there commenting on rock stars as they watched all the tv's in the place play MTV. If you listen to the lyrics and see the video you will see how this all fits in. You should really listen closely to the lyrics. They are hilarious. My signature line contains some of them this week, and once you know about the appliance store, they make a lot more sense.
