It's week two of Thursday Tunes and I have learned a few things.

1. As much as I love love love Guy playing and singing "Brandy," I was tired of hearing it self start everytime I checked in on the blog.

2. If you use IE, that doesn't happen. I use Firefox, so it did. I will continue searching for the right code or a different player that lets you decide if you want to hear the music or not. No forced listening here.

3. I should have done that before subjecting you to this next diddy.

I have very few things recorded that I would ever be willing to put out there on internet land. There is an full album's worth of stuff from 1996 that I would never in a million years post. It is 100% awful. Think Roland Jazz Chorus out the wahzoo and vocals that never got rerecorded even though the instrumental parts did. Not that I'm perfect, but have mercy, that album makes me sound deaf.

I digress.

Point being, I'm going to actually have to start recording some things if I don't want to have Thursday Tunes last just another 2 weeks.

Today, you get a live version of "Icicle." A great Tori tune. Not a great performance. This is from 2003 I think. And it does nothing to bolster my suggestions that I do have good pitch. So sorry.

Edited to add: HooRah for the new player that Guy found for me. Now you can listen if you want and press stop as soon as you can take no more.

Damn Firefox, Damn! ----- COMMENT: AUTHOR:Anonymous Marty, a.k.a. canape DATE:Thursday, March 8, 2007 at 12:14:00 PM EST Damn indeed. I'm going to work on this. For now though, I'm going to turn off Brandy. Thanks for pointing this out, Jessica. ----- COMMENT: AUTHOR:Anonymous Oh, The Joys DATE:Thursday, March 8, 2007 at 3:01:00 PM EST What program are you using to load the audio? ----- COMMENT: AUTHOR:Anonymous Marty, a.k.a. canape DATE:Thursday, March 8, 2007 at 4:05:00 PM EST OTJ - If you will email me, I'll send you the code. Honestly, I don't know what it is. My K found it for me, and I just cut, paste, and tie into my own uploads. It's pretty easy though - I don't mind passing it along. Mainly of course, because I think you would be an unstoppable force of nature with words, photos, AND audio.

BTW, I'm using Firefox and everything looks and sounds fine.
