The reason I like this song is...

They have several songs I like, but I really like this one:

R+J doesn't do a lot for me (and it's probably my second favourite DIre Straits song) but I do like Sultans of Swing a lot.

I hope this is a safe space

I like "That's All" by Genesis a lot.

Phil Collins adjacent.

Shamefully true... but it's the piano part that makes it for me and presumably he had nothing to do with it. And if I'm wrong, I don't want to know :)

Can't say I'm a fan of Dire Straits, but I do enjoy hearing this one as well as "Sultans Of Swing".

Their first 3-4 albums are good. Not spectacular, but enjoyable. I don't think it's far from what guys like Springsteen were doing - polished up bar band music. The only thing I'll say about Dire Straits is that unlike many "very white bands" out there - they swing pretty hard.

Yep - but I don't think I'd like it if it was the same words/melody over a guitar and bass.... it's the piano riff that does it for me

I've admitted, by proxy, to liking Phil Collins, so yes please. You'd be doing me a favour.
