Making Movies - Side B

English poet, journalist and literary critic James Fenton once stated that “A cabaret song has got to be written - for the middle voice, ideally - because you've got to hear the wit of the words. And a cabaret song gives the singer room to act, more even than an opera singer.” Words that I think our hero this season, Mark Knopfler took to heart when penning one of the songs on Side B of Dire Straits’ third album, Making Movies. But what will Corey think of that abrupt and very hard left turn into the world of the Munich gay scene? Will he take to a return to a slower pace on Hand in Hand, will Kev make any more spurious claims about lyrics based on his complete misreading of a very clear musical reference? And most importantly, will Corey stump Kev during Money For Nothing?

The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and get a little risqué!
