Dire Straits
Dire Straits' 1985 album Brothers in Arms was the first record in history to sell over one million copies on CD, ushering in the entire compact disc era. Mark Knopfler wrote the song "Money for Nothing" while standing in a New York appliance store, jotting down complaints from delivery men watching MTV — including the now-iconic line "I want my MTV," sung on the recording by Sting himself.
