A really great song with a very average film clip. The song is SO inspiring and yet the clip is pretty bland. I think there should have been more close ups of the guitar playing and band members with serious, reflective expressions. I would have liked to see some freedom-inspiring outdoors shots with clouds, mountains, a young couple etc. A serious story could have been played out by actors cut back to the band playing.

Check out the song as it appears in the film An Officer and a Gentleman (it's in German, but you don't have to understand what they are saying to see there is some tension here):

And check out this non-official Kim Carnes 'I'll be here whare the heart is' clip to get the relationship idea for the clip - minus mountains and cloud scenes:

At the very least the Dire Straits clip should have had close ups of the guitar playing.

Peter Gabriel - Solsbury Hill

Excellent song from the great Peter Gabriel, with a pretty weird official film clip ...

Simone & Girlfunkle - Summer Rain

It would be nice if the Music Video featured the girls in the band a bit more. I remember other bands that released follow up clips after not being entirely satified with the first effort. It's a good upbeat track they have here.
