    Oldies Music Video Friday Date Night

    By we are stardust on Fri, 04/08/2011 - 7:45pm |

    Grab your best real or imaginary sweetie, and spin us a tune.  The Big G may or may not shut down tonight; it’ll get fixed soon, and we hope no one suffers needlessly. 

     Embed hints: Grab the Old Embed code by right clicking on it.  In the comment box, either text or not, click Disable Rich Text.  Click a cursor wherever you want a smaller version of the video.  Change the values to 320 X 195 in both places.  Then click Enable Rich Text.  A pink box should be there; preview it, and it should be ready to save.

    This was one of pop's favorites:

    Well, rats.  Can't do it, even with your instructions.  I can see it on the page but when I preview/save it's gone.  Don't know what I'm doing so here's the link.  K.D. Lang.  Couldn't decide which to choose, every song she sings is pure gold:

    I can never make it work on my IE; hafta use Firefox to embed videos.  this is so queer, though; I was gonna put up a KD Lang for Quinn.  this is one of the best.

    Thanks so much, Stardust.  So I'm over at Firefox now and I tried to embed this most gorgeous song--Chet Atkins and Don McLean and "Vincent"--and wouldn't you know?  The embedding was disabled.  Still, it's only a click away.  Best version ever.

    Beautiful; saw a Chet Atkins special the other week; surprising talent. 

    Shoot; the last twelve I tried to get were disabled.
