Never really got Bruce Springsteen. The very definition of dad rock. I always think of Reagan's (mis)use of Born In The USA at his campaign rallies and The Rising and the neo-con response to 9/11.

Doesn't do anything for me.

Well then tickle me pink I focking love Dad rock

But my own personal interpretation of Dad rock would be Status Quo And Steely Dan and the likes.

I've never really minded Dire Straits, nor understood why they were singled out as particularly unfashionable. But maybe that's because my uncle played with them in their early days.

Ah here! Dire Straits is appalling stuff! Spend five minutes with a Dire Straits fan and you throw yourself out the pub window! Listen to 'Romeo and Julie and it will be the second floor one. 'Local Hero' is a decent tune though. 
Dismissing 'Steely Dan as just 'dad rock' is unfair though. It is probably a compliment to Status Quo though, even if it is hard not to enjoy their one song when full of light ale.

Making Movies is a terrific album. I wouldnt call myself a fan by any stretch but some of their tunes are great. Brother in Arms, So far away, Skateaway, Local Hero, Tunnel of Love and you cannot throw out Sultans of Swing. 

But some awful stuff. Twisting by the pool LOL

I would throw 'Sultans of Swing' so far that it would never see the light of day again. Having had a stepdad(****) who was a fan didn't help. Bizarrely, he otherwise had very decent musical tastes and introduced me to the Delta blues. I suppose we all have our weak spots.LOL

I thought you were one of the good guys too.Cry

Apologies PM but i am the opposite because my own aul fella is a bit of a Knopfler fan LOL 

And being a guitar fan i appreciate the inimitable hook of the tune and MK treating it as an extension of his arm. 

Stickin it on now Big smile

I can't watch him without getting overly emotional these days. He tests my heterosexuality a lot too. Some arse on him.

What a tune. Always reminds me of that summer show he did in RDS years ago and was blistering summers day - actually got this little 6 year old up to sing along with him and she knew all the words. Brilliant gig.
