I think that music journalists often compared Money for Nothing with Heavy Fuel and You and Your Friend from Brothers In Arms to reduce the value of the album on every street

Well Mark compared Heavy Fuel to MFN on one of the very first shows of OES tour in Dublin by claiming "its not really me, its not really me" therefore it seems pretty clear that song was written for commercial purposes.

Probably so. I just wanted to write for me an album on every street is a beautiful introduction to golden heart  :)

Maybe my comment will be pointless, but in the end it's a discussion forum. RHOF chooses Mark, John, David, Pick, Guy and Alan. But why are they exchanging names? Why not just DS? Maybe the musicians themselves should decide? Maybe then Mark will say something. Maybe that would change the point of view. Or maybe I'm talking nonsense. It's late. Please forgive me  ;)

Together with the RRHOF Dire Straits are set to release the studio albums 1978-1991. Coincidence?
Perhaps it has something new? Like a demo?

GF:

 I will be there along with John. At this moment, I can't speak for the others...for various and convoluted reasons.

Believe me, is because the organisation promised to pay the expenses of all of them but in the end is nit doing it.

John and Guy go on representation.

Merriam Webster - convoluted.

One of the definitions:

a convoluted explanation that left the listeners even more confused than they were before.      ;D
