"Expresso Love" is a song written by Dire Straits frontman Mark Knopfler for their third album Making Movies. It is one of their heavier songs, with a distorted guitar playing the main riff, which was recycled from the unreleased track "Making Movies". It also has a keyboard melody played throughout the piece, with the melody altering slightly at points. It is basically a love song. Expresso Love also contains a reference to the earlier Dire Straits song "Wild West End" from their eponymous album, with the line "Hey mister, you wanna take a walk in the wild west end sometime?"
