Nostalgia moment!

I was a kid when this came out and remember playing Spyhunter listening to a copy of it on some badass TDK90. Play, rewind, play, rewind.

If I had to list some 80s songs that profoundly moved me...this would be right up there. The video was a B&W animation and that struck a nerve too.

Ahhh , Dire Straits and Spyhunter.

Cue teary eyed nostalgia

Mark Knopfler is awesome and he's always been my favorite guitar player. Sultans of Swing is great too.



Money for Nothing, Walk of Life, and Romeo & Juliet also.

Has a Floyd type of appeal to it .It would have fit perfectly on the Dark side of the Moon album .

Yes, Dire Straits were a great band. However, I prefer the original video...

The song "Brothers in Arms" is about the Falklands War 1982.
