First copyright strike, video - which took me hours to make and was quite hard due to the lack of proper hardware - removed. And the offending material wasn't even the audio but one of the two video clips I combined to present the audio. The irony..
All thanks to $ony.
Youtube is another prime example of how corporate entities(Sony, WMG, EMI, etc.) are destroying any form of creativity. They destroyed music, by forcing their patterns to artists and serving/forcing the admittedly poor result to the masses.
Youtube holds its own responsibility in this copyright mess, for not granting any share of their enormous advertising and otherwise income back to these corporations, pointing all responsibility to its users - the users that made Youtube what it is - removing without further notice their work and deleting their channels. Channels that made absolutely no profit. Youtube stands only because some copyright holders are tolerant to users using their material, and sometimes even happy to, otherwise 99.99999% of Youtube videos fall under copyright. And this brings us to the Vevo crap, which is taking over!
So, that leaves us being mere viewers or commentators(in case we do not produce media ourselves, which is video AND music)
All of which has turned Youtube into an advertising colossus, whose game I am not sure I want to keep playing for long..
Apologies to my German brothers and sisters, some of my videos are blocked for your country. Sorry about that, you can thank $ony for that, though..
I sincerely thank all the friends and fellow travelers for their support, comments, the precious communication and the passion that we've shared here over the years. In case I leave this place, we'll surely meet again, maybe in another life when we are all cats!
I would also like to thank fellow users *or what's left of them* for all the wonderful work they've done here.
I have managed to collect my all time favorite music, throughout a venture of 3 years of search, 3 past accounts, and many, many videos watched. My work here is mostly done..
It 's been a fantastic melodic journey through lovely, faint, childhood memories..."sigh" and awesome new discoveries.
Uploading some rare and not so rare music that I had stumbled upon throughout my searches and was not uploaded here on YouTube.
The "videos";-)), a result of me playing with some pictures, were made with the aid of Windows Movie Maker, the reason for this, is that my pc crashed thus was forced to use a shared laptop with limited time and privileges.

When you are old and grey and full of sleep,
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;
How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true,
But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face;
And bending down beside the glowing bars,
Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fled
And paced upon the mountains overhead
And hid his face amid a crowd of stars.

Wish I could fly through this land beloved
Not in my dream, nor by spell then bound
Paradise's here in this fields immense
If I return to this world here I will live again
Strengthened by fury, I feel no fear
Fire inside, it keeps me awake
For no blind I ever shall bend!
This is my law! This is my way!
Hey!
Insight's my power, truth is my breath
Free in my thoughts I always remain!
Choose to take a different path
Strong in the storms, pure through the waste
Stand up, Oh brothers over the world!
Enemies are there and mostly the same
We are a kind that never gives in!
We are a flame born in the wind!
Hey!
Time's of no matter, it never was!
World is the same, just different form
Freedom is something one doesn't earn
Always your own! Graced by the will!
He's the one, pure in his heart
Shining fair in the bright never lost
Noble grace, unbroken faith
Running throughout the fields immense
Shouting free in the air embraced
Dancing there with the wind

A woman is like a tea bag. You never know how strong she is until you put her in hot water!
And you humble me once again. I would answer in kind, but I am no man's servant... humble or otherwise. LoL :P

I have been so distracted lately... that's the only reason I simply did not see what was right in front of me. I think I was meant to find it today, when I really needed something so precious. :)))
of all that is bright and warm.....ahhaa....that would be the sun !!
Seriously, i do wish you a day full of laughter, it is truly the best way
to spend your day....I also want to say thank you....for just being you !
Have a wonderful day and I wish you a beautiful start into your week :))

Have a good Sunday too.
Today it is very cold and I did not want to show off my nose.
The cold will intensify in the week.
I look forward that spring back.
I spent a sleepless night, tossing and turning. :( Why am I facing so much at once? As always, I find such comfort in music. Lo and behold, in the midst of crisis, there you are. :)))
Thank you so very much for the heartfelt dedication. I am grinning like a cheshire cat, despite the tears...

Hmmm, nobody's home. Oh well... :P
