The music is all wrong.

[cofasman]

@MowgliX Well, instead of telling me its the wrong music, cuz if you read the other comments, we've been discussing this, then tell me how to get youtube to allow the original music choice to be played

[backahjack]

hey guys.heres an idea.how about you quit bitching,silence this vid,then pull up a tab and play any song you like :) im playing the byrds.the song should be obvious

[cofasman]

@backahjack Thanks alot for the back up....i originally had different music but youtube won't let me play them and i don't know how to make it work....sorry about that

[olelukoiesfriend]

bad music choice.

[cofasman]

@olelukoiesfriend I agree, I origianlly had "Edie'' by the cult, 'Pale Blue Eyes" The Velvet Underground, and "How to Fight Loniliness" by Wilco but youtube wouldn't play those songs due to copyright so they picked a song that doesnt even last the entire video....if you know how i can get youtube to play those songs..PLEASE let me know

My mother was just a little younger than Edie and just epitomized her from her fashion to her makeup and also suffered from eating disorders.I now understand why the facination,about Edie,that my mother loved.Both were destroyed by men that they loved from fathers to boyfriends. Neither of them could tell friend foe.Thank you for posting on Youtube!Would have enjoyed hearing it with your choice!I grew up with Edie too so much that my girls grew up with her too!

@ckotcher1. She died of "acute barbituate intoxication" which is an overdose basically. She suffocated in her sleep, but it was noted that she had had alcohol the night before and mixed it with the medicine she was on. She had actually stopped taking drugs and drinking for a few months after her marriage to Michael Post, but was precriped a pain pill for serum sickness which started her relapse into drugs again. It's such a shame :(

[ckotcher1]

WOW does she look different at the end of her life and you know what? Its strange because she looks so much BETTER!!! TAN skin, instead of pale. Long dark hair..natural beauty....not so stick thin, she looked great....why did she die?????

[Rafeef2]

the music is perfect actually..amazing video 

[evakaneva87]

Yes.. you can tell she had started to take drug all over again... I couldn`t explain to myself her choice for a husband if not for drugs! Who would of marry for that freak, for god sakes! He had to keep her drugged all the time to marry her and not to die like a virgin.

@cofasman Well, here'e what I think: you might try just *one* of the songs, not three. And use something that is roughly contemporary with the images, say, The Velvet Underground. It's cool. That just means more people will discover the Velvets and Lou Reed.

There should be no problem as long as the song is a snippet and not the whole thing.

I've only had a real problem once: it was an excellent Jimi Hendrix documentary that I posted, but that *was* the whole film with the original music... :/

[backahjack]

@cofasman - no problem at all,i know i read your description. It just came off as kind of silly to be that upset though,its still a great collection of pics and opening a new tab is pretty easy to do. Im not sure if you put this together yourself but great job if so, and if not who cares great job! :) lol don't defend yourself to the youtube world its pointless
