The sound was disabled because of Warners Music Group
I play music from my iTunes collection,
while I watch this video. It works well and I can choose different music when I feel like it. Uploaded by ilovemylifesblog

One of the two songs I had uploaded on Youtube was Rolling Home.


Lyrics to Rolling Home

Truth, with all its far out schemes,
Lets time decide what it should mean;
It's not the time but just the dreams that die.
And sometimes when the room is still,
Time with so much truth to kill,
Leaves you by the window sill so tied
Without a wing, to take you high,
Without a clue to tell you why.

Now, I just want to keep my name, not bother anybody's game
Without ideas of gold or fame or insane heights.
I don't want a lot of money, I don't want a Playboy Bunny,
Just a love to call me honey late at night,
In my arms, by my side, in my arms late at night.

Chorus:
But I don't know, I ain't been told,
Ev'rybody wants a hand to hold.
They're so afraid of being old,
So scared of dying, so unknown
And so alone, rollin' home.

Well, I see the ones who crawl like moles
Who for a front would trade their souls,
A broken mirror's the only hole for them;
And for you who'd exchange yourselves,
Just to be somebody else,
Pretending things you never felt or meant;
Hey, you don't live what you defend,
You can't give so you just bend.

Now if you care what people think,
Like they supplied some missing link;
They'll just stand back and watch you sink so slow.
They'll never help you to decide,
They'll only take you for a ride,
After which they'll try and hide the fact that they don't know
What you should do, where you should go,
What you should do, where you should go.

There's nothing big I want to prove,
No mountains that I need to move,
Or even claim what's right or true for you.
My sights, my songs are slightly charred,
You might think they miss their mark,
But things are only what they are and nothing new
But for me, I think they'll do,
But for me, I think they'll do.

Well, I can see a king and queen, a beggar falling at my feet;
They all must see the same sad dreams at night;
Futility and senseless war, pit the rich against the poor,
While cause is buried long before the fight
For what was wrong, for what was right,
It's just the strong, who ever says what's right.

Subject: Permission to use music


Do you ever give permission to have WMG music on youtube videos?


Using Youtube’s magnetic commercial bonanza possibilities by posting links to be able to purchase songs utilized can be like having free advertising agencies. Those of us who make Youtube videos are at your service, simply because we like the artists’ music and we like making videos that the whole world has access to. It makes good business sense to take advantage of this opportunity with the world's access to Youtube. It is a possible and promising partnership with the right guidelines and monitoring. To my mind, better business sense than simply barring the use of music. That is a dead end to endless potential to enhance money-making choices.


When using music, I would


1) put a link on my Youtube sidebar to purchase the music


2) put a link to the artist's website on my Youtube sidebar


3) Identify the song, the CD and website on the youtube video itself


and I would write on my sidebar how gracious you are to allow the use of your music - with the agreement to help promote buying your music.


As you must know, Youtube offers musicians to have the songs used in the Youtube video have a pop-up little window on the lower portion of the video that links the viewer to where the music can be purchased – iTunes and Amazon. It is a win-win situation. Free advertisement for the musicians. Many of us find music on Youtube that we didn't know before, love it and then buy it. It is true for me and true for others I know.


Thank you for your attention and consideration in this matter.


A reply would be appreciated.

I don't expect anything to come of this, but sometimes just trying makes me feel better.

Warner Music Group Partners with Outrigger Media To Support Expanding Online Advertising Strategy


Interesting information at http://outriggermedia.com/


I spent all last night searching for my next song to use on Youtube. I found it. I had already found the song, but it was with the Warners company. So, I purchased four different versions at itunes last night and tried out two of them with two test uploads at Youtube, private viewing only. Voila! They both were accepted. Now, to find out if I can use clips from The Four Feathers, the movie I want to use when producing my next Youtube. I don't want another block out for the USA, like my last one.


My latest video for Heath...
For The First Time
Youtube has barred USA from viewing this video,

due to NBC Universal,
Brokeback Mountains' distributor.

And forbidden an embed.

VAMOS RAFA! AT THE SHANGHAI TENNIS TOURNAMENT

I love basketball. I liked tennis, until Rafael Nadal showed up. Now, I'm in love with tennis. Nothing like emotion, integrity, passion and the will to be the best you can be at the moment you find yourself in...to get me hooked on someone...
Rafa has got IT. ..ALL. Talent, drive, playfulness, dynamic passion, colorful personality, emotion that shows, just enough swagger on the court, but still humility is there. Integrity. He appears so grounded. He doesn't put on airs. He is natural...comfortable with who he is. He's not afraid to be a man on his terms. A "naturally sexy" man. And the body...well, it is a pleasure to the eyes. That's what I see. I like this young man.

That would be Rafa on the left and Roger on the right

that has stood watch over the Chinese Emperor of Qin for
more than 2,000 years, combatants at the 2007 Tennis Masters
Cup have been immortalized in eight life-size warrior statues.


Rafa is scheduled to play Richard Gasquet Shanghai time 2:00 p.m. November 11. At http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,12948,00.html
