Because this is a great cover...

Today I read magentabear 's post in which she mentioned she has recently discovered  the Killers' cover of "Romeo and Juliet" by Dire Straits and has instantly fallen in love with it.

Since I love this song and my lovely  lj friend said she din't find the video (it's so because there's none so far), I managed to find a suitable one nevertheless.

Here it goes,

THIS SONG OWNS MY SOUL. I made the mistake of reading the forums at songmeanings.com (I don't know why, but the people who post at that site always bug me) to see what the song was about and I've decided to ignore everyone else's interpretation and stick with my very literal one. For me this song is about Romeo and Juliet, as told by Shakespeare himself.
