Sultans of Swing. Everyone and their uncle thinks its the best thing ever, so I hear it all the fime. Repetitive music, barely any actual singing, and just frankly sounds shit. I can't believe it was so popular that I am now cursed to hear if on every oldies station.
I could never hate Sultans of Swing, but I hear you. It's the one Dire Straits song that ever gets played, and even worse, the radio edit cuts out a lot of the virtuosic guitar solos, which are really the best part of the tune.
this one made me say 'what the fuck?' out loud.
True story - I once went to a concert because the Smithereens were the opener and left before the headliner came on. The main act? Dire Straits.
