I apologize for not consulting you before posting. I have made a terrible mistake. In the future I will make sure I clear my song selection with you. I do hope you will forgive me!

I want to thank you because you are the only user who put on youtube a clear demonstration of the Atari Video Music without a voiceless ultra low fi 8 bit piece of music, but with a warm and voiceful song.

Maybe it is just a coincidence, but the video output seems to respond with more "warmth" and more "color" than usual

Thank you for the lovely insight. This song is one of my favorites. It sounds great and has a message as well. "I will take the road less traveled. I will turn my life around". I am an audio engineer so quality counts with me. I have had this video up for about a year and have gotten the usual wild variety of responses, but yours was such a delight. Thank you. And BTW- It is still for sale. Make me an offer

What a really cool, old-school piece of electronics. What a really dull, lame-ass turd of a song.

@SPICESMUGGLER71

I think your comment says more about you then it does about the song....

[somatt]

what is your asking price and location?

[public202]

@somatt  I am in Maryland. I am asking $225.

thx for loading

For those interested, Devo used one of these in the video for "The Day My Baby Gave Me A Surprise" (circa 1979).

I almost agreed with you at first (though I would probably choose a more tactful way to say it if I were to say anything about it at all) but the song actually grew on me and although it wouldn't have been my first choice it's kind of refreshing to see a video for something like this that isn't 8 bit or synth music, though I have nothing against those types of music at all.

Meh didn't like the song, but who cares, its your own personal taste. It really demonstrated this incredible piece of technology. Actually, it seems pretty seizure inducing, haha.

[VJFranzK]

Retro terrific! Too bad I didn't buy it from you. "RF out" only really sucks, of course, but there are adaptors ;-) Forget the YouTube "haters" about the song - this thing was built to use with ANY style of music, and that's what you are doing with it.

@Ponimaju: So whose rule is that? Yours? Never heard of it. The song I chose for the demo is not important. Although a number of folks have commented that they really like it. If you scroll thru the comments you will find that I did identify the song in response to a request.

[Ponimaju]

song is "the wyrd sisters - everything and more" i believe. definitely violated the cardinal rule of video uploading by not telling people what the song is in your description

[Maestrp37388]

I'll bet this thing was absolutely a trip in 1976. Having grown up in the 70's I'm trying to imagine back to that perspective.

If you love stuff like this download winamp and use the milkdrop plugin

[TotalNekro]

I want one! Girls must go crazy over a guy with one of those.
