80s music/ Dire Straits quesition...Am I the only person alive who cranks up the volume in my car when the...?

opening guitar riff from "Money for Nothing" by Dire Straits comes on the radio? So far, I've only done this when I'm alone in the car and the windows are closed. Is there anyone else who partakes is this type of guilty pleasure, or am I just the biggest dork to ever hold a drivers license?

    I always crank the radio when Money for Nothing comes on, even with all the windows down. But of course, I still own a Milli Vanilli CD.

    nah..ive never heard of that band but i like a few 80s songs

    if youre a dork i might be too. im starting to love alot of 60s music...and sometimes i turn it up when i hear certain ones.

    and in my opinion 60s in a way is more dorky than 80s

    No, you're not a dork. I don't crank it for "Money For Nothing", but if "Sultans of Swing" comes on I'll crank it and drive about 5 mph faster.
