One World - Dire Straits

One World - Dire Straits
3:40
Brothers In Arms, 1985
Written by Mark Knopfler

O listen!

A laid-black blues by the Notting Hillbilly.  Despite the album being one of the best-selling of all time, to me it's not the best Dire Straits album.  It's got a funky groove, with an odd center section where they take away the rhythm section and Knopfler croons over what sounds like harpsichord but it probably synths.  It's a decent tune, but I wouldn't put it on a best-of compilation.
