Originally, this started with the song. However, in its Infinite Greed, WMG's third party complaint led to YT's stripping the soundtrack.

I had originally included Scarlett's version because her singing was better than I expected. The track proved popular, but I'd suggest that you not dash out to buy the CD. In fact, I suggest that you BOYCOTT WMG in punishment for their petty-minded greed. There is plenty of good material from labels that are not so churlishly greedy.

When YT has thus butchered an audio track, it provides the option of attaching a piece of approved music from YT's very limited repetoire. There might be some decent tracks in the YT selection, but I have not found anything really good. The substituted audio here is "Morning Mood" from Edvard Grieg's "Peer Gynt". It is quite a pretty piece of music, though this particular performance is merely adequate.

The images range from California to Andalusia.

Absolutely beautiful slides. What has this to do with Scarlett Johanssen or summmertime? I think this music is written by Grieg

Thanks. I thought that the summertime aspect was obvious. As to Scarlett Johanssen, the explanation is in the sidebar.

Yes, the substitute track is Grieg.

damn, i was looking foward to listening 2 this :(

[saphistische]

It was quite good. Darn and drat that WMG and YT couldn't come to an agreement about financial terms!

you are so right, i had the same problem with wmg and came to the same conclusion: they are assholes.

[saphistische]

They are being greedy because YT was not paying them "enough". That's why I think that a boycott would hit 'em where it hurts.
