@KeenlyJohnas I don’t really think the lead singer was imitating Mark Knopfler at all. His “that’s the way you DO IT” sounded more like someone from a motor cycle gang who is in utter love with the song and paying their own homage with the emphasis of the way they heard it sung by Knopfler, Meaning I still think it sounded cool, but not an imitation by any means of the original artist.
The lead guitarist is really amazing. I really like him sang.

His name is Howie G
The Guitarist Is Simply fantastic
That bass line was solid as a rock, good job guys
absolutely amazing! the guitar player nailed the tone and riff, and he can even sing!
Wow that lead guitarist is the best "and he can sing" , how much talent does one person want , fantastic !!

I LOVE the mixing on this track! Good sound engineers make sure we can hear all elements of a band clearly, and we can certainly hear everyone here. Strong driving bass, powerful drums, fantastic lead guitar, and all vocals (which often doesn't happen). Wonderful ensemble playing, supported by a great crew on the sound desk, and excellent light show.

The song was written from the perspective of two working class guys, it's not the actual opinions of Mark Knopfler or Sting.
10 out of 10 would recommend 👌
that "I want my..." part was majestic
This band is beyond words they are so good!!!
my 10000th time watching them... great band...
Ladies and Gentlemen: THIS is how you ROCK! Excellent performance!!
Love that "I want my MTV" guy hello 2020!
The music is alive and crisp every note is clear .. legendary !!
That is such a difficult song to perform live to sound that close to the record and they nailed it, especially Howie on lead and vocals. Every last person watching should have been on their feet.

Very very close. No person can sing this particular song as Mark did.
As a video director, editor and a musician, I have to say this is an OUTSTANDING PRODUCTION!! Very well done. Oh, and the band's not bad either. ;)
The more I watch, the more I like TCRS especially in this difficult times.
The drumming, the guitarist, the vocals, ok, great all around!
Omg! That's one of the best cover of the song that I've watched performed live! 😲 Great job! Guys! 👍👍👍
Wow, the guitarist had a very unique voice. He is definitely a frontman quality! I am impressed!
Best Cover Band for classics rock
💕💕💕 Even my 4years old daughter really love this song and always dancing every time she watching this video 😘😋👏 Send love from Indonesia 💕
They kill it. Would love to see this show live. From what I understand the lineup changes a lot but almost every video I’ve seen it kills.
Glad they kept the lyrics. It’s a time capsule. Inappropriate today but part of them. Can you imagine changing librettos to operas? Most are inappropriate today. Besides, people need to grow a layer of skin today.
This was an incredible performance, I am so happy to have found it !!! Love this song, and these guys blew it out of the water !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Perfect vocalist for this song, they got there stuff together.

Mine has always been Brian May, seen Queen 3 times (Freddie, not lambert) A guitar made out of an old piece of oak mantelpiece and motorcycle springs etc, and plays Brighton Rock, Prophets Song is just insane! But I love rock guitarists and have done my bucket list of bands but missed Led Zeppelin, ironically for Queen. 🤘

Mega gut. Besser als das orginal. Alles super. Ich liebe es. Weiter sp.
as im practising for weeks to get the lyrics and guitar in the same time, i have deep respect for this version, great band. very well done
OMG!!!! THEY ARE INCREDIBLY AMAZING.
This band is so amazing they kept all the original tunes love it❤
I love that they sang the WHOLE song the way it was written. In the words of The Eagles song, GET OVER IT!
One of the best covers I think I've heard of the song... and yeah, keeping the (original) lyrics was ballsy... but given the performance they gave I'd say worth it. They did the gentlemen responsible for the song a tribute

Hell yeah. I'm so sick of hearing the edited version. Every avenue of radio i listen to, has cut those lyrics. I was wondering, coming into the video. Bad ass song, and these guys did a damn fine job of covering this masterpiece.
I am an old man and have picked my share of guitar. I am actually jealous of this band. Great cover lots of talent! I wish i was 20 again!

I can’t get enough of this cover band. Pretty much every song they do sounds awesome!!! The lead guitar player has the greatest look . Reminds me of Greg Allmans hair. Lol
after watching over 10 uploads from you guys, the whole team, I mean from front end to back end, all are very talented and professional. You are not a covering band, you are a group of very high level musican. Respect!!

Honestly I think this is better than any of the many live versions I've seen by Dire Straits on YT. They kinda phone it in. Knopfler has no interest in repeating the vocal flourishes he obtained on the album

All music, vocals and mixing parts are perfect. Have been listening almost every night. One of the best mixing. Keep it up.
Big time respect for not changing the lyrics. A classic shouldn't be f*cked with.
Dam!!! These guys really nailed it.
" what a great performance,amazing.......😌 Thank you dire straits for create this amazing masterpiece that still sound on 2019 "
You know you're getting old when you see a whole audience of old folks listening to rock music. We didn't think we would ever get old but it slipped up on us.
Still one of the best ,
Great rendition ofa rock classic!
This is simply excellent, the guitarists voice is amazing
its nice to see a cover so close to the original. You see they put in effort to make it sound like the original.

@@tigervv6437 not sure about it. I think Dire Straits had very high sound quality and played with great precision, so Dire straits sound was ''clean'', just maybe recordings in youtube are not very high quality so it sounds a bit ,,dirty''. But I agree, that its the best Dire straits cover, its very hard to play this song in the right way, but they did it perfectly

@@MemeNatorius I don’t know if you have ever listened to live versions, but Mark tends to deviate quite a bit from the studio version. Especially in his later period. Not only improvising the solo’s, but generally having a different sound than on the recordings. He said himself in an interview that he thought the studio version was too clean in retrospect. I‘ve seen him live several times and there are also high quality soundboard recordings on youtube from various concerts. Mark can be extremely clean live, especially on his earlier work, but usually not on Money for Nothing.

Man, first time I've heard these guys (and gals) and they are damn good! What's interesting is the age of most of the people in the audience compared to those on stage. Just shows how timeless Classic Rock is and how great much of it is, especially compared to the (C)rap influenced garbage we've been force fed for the past number of years.
