This is an extremely memorable song for me!
First time I really heard it I was in AIT, in the day room before 0730 formation...
Ft Benjamin Harrison (Indianapolis) 1984

That’s wonderful! I was a SP4 in the middle of AIT and there were two of us who Aced the 75C course, yet the distinguished honor grad went to a female who cheated and slept with a married SMG...SPC Margaret Higgins

Thank you my friend SGT (Join to see) for posting the the MTV 'state of the art' 1985 cartoon music video of Dire Straits with Gordon Summers AKA Sting performing Money For Nothing

Dire Straits / Sting - Money For Nothing (Live Aid 1985)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JcqhvPNiJzo

Money for Nothing written by Mark Knopfler / Gordon Matthew Sumner
Lyrics
"Now look at them yo-yo's that's the way you do it
You play the guitar on the MTV
That ain't workin' that's the way you do it
Money for nothin' and chicks for free
Now that ain't workin' that's the way you do it
Lemme tell ya them guys ain't dumb
Maybe get a blister on your little finger
Maybe get a blister on your thumb
We gotta install microwave ovens
Custom kitchen deliveries
We gotta move these refrigerators
We gotta move these colour TV's
See the little faggot with the earring and the makeup
Yeah buddy that's his own hair
That little faggot got his own jet airplane
That little faggot he's a millionaire
We gotta install microwave ovens
Custom kitchens deliveries
We gotta move these refrigerators
We gotta move these colour TV's
I shoulda learned to play the guitar
I shoulda learned to play the drums
Look at that mama, she got it stickin' in the camera
Man we could have some fun
And he's up there, what's that? Hawaiian noises?
Bangin' on the bongoes like a chimpanzee
That ain't workin' that's the way you do it
Get your money for nothin' get your chicks for free
We gotta install microwave ovens
Custom kitchen deliveries
We gotta move these refrigerators
We gotta move these colour TV's
Now that ain't workin' that's the way you do it
You play the guitar on the MTV
That ain't workin' that's the way you do it
Money for nothin' and your chicks for free
Money for nothin' and chicks for free
Money for nothin' and chicks for free
Money for nothin' and chicks for free
Money for nothin' and chicks for free"
