The
Backstory: Released on August 1, 1981, the channel
originally aired music videos and related music entertainment
programming guided by television personalities known as video jockeys
(VJs). The
first video played on MTV was “Video Killed the Radio Star” by The
Buggles.
"Money for Nothing" is a song by the British rock band Dire
Straits, the second track on their fifth studio album Brothers in Arms
(1985). It was released as the album's second single on 28 June 1985
through Vertigo Records. The song's lyrics are written from the point of
view of two working-class men watching music videos and commenting on what
they see. The song features a guest appearance by Sting, who sings the
signature falsetto introduction, background vocals and a backing chorus of
"I want my MTV" set to the same notes as the chorus of
the Police's hit "Don't Stand So Close To Me".
The groundbreaking music video, one of the first uses of computer-animated
human characters, was the first to be aired on MTV
Europe when the network launched on 1 August 1987.
It was Dire Straits' most commercially successful single, peaking at number
one for three weeks on both the US Billboard Hot 100 and Top Rock
Tracks chart and number four in the band's native UK.
