Here's my winning entry for the "Josef" category of the Moonlight Gala Video Contest.

"Big Time Operator" was recorded by Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, and, I think, suits him so very well.

(Note: For best viewing, select the "watch in high quality" option at the lower right corner of the video window on YouTube. It makes a huge difference.)

I love this video. One of my favorite clips is when we first see Josef coming out of the limo. I always loved how he shaded himself from the sun as opposed to Mick who always seemed to cover over his head than at it.

You could not have pick a better subject to work with Lilly (you know that Josef is IT for me)!

Your talent with video never ceases to amaze me, and I certainly hope that you post the links to your other ML vids as well.

Thanks, Carol and Trixie! I think I would give one of my arms for more Josef footage to work with. :roll: :lol:

As for the rest of the vids -- at least the ones YouTube hasn't pulled down -- I'll get those up as soon as I have an office. I don't want to make too much work for the mods with having to move them.

You have a point -- legs might be better. I need my hands to make vids! :lol:

And, yes, I lost a few vids due to "copyright" issues with the music. Can't really blame the artists, though.

Just thought I'd bump this for its 2 year anniversary. ;)

(Yikes! How has it possibly been 2 years already???)

Oh Lilly this was fabulous, you captures all those great Josef moments what a perfect song for him too. I never did see this first time around but loved it, it was fun to watch. One thing though, I tried to watch it in 720pHD and it was breaking up digitally so I had watch it in the lower quality video mode.

Two years, really? Wow.

This one and your "You've Got A Friend in Me" are two of my all time favorite Moonlight Vids! :yahoo: I just watched both of them and was grinning ear to ear. Lovely to see them again. :hearts:

Thanks, Lilly. :flowers: :hug:

Thank you, moonlightlover60. :rose: I find that YouTube can be temperamental with the HD playback. Sometimes I need to pause the video and let it fully buffer before playing. That usually takes care of the glitches. :thumbs:

MLC - thank you so much for your kind words about both videos. :hug: I think "You've Got a Friend in Me" was my second video, but it still holds a special place in my heart -- or next to my funny bone. Fielder's choice. :teeth:

Wow! Two years have flown. I love this video and it was great to see it again. This and Who's Your Daddy? are two of my favorites of yours. I'll have to peek in your office again for reviewing.

Have I seen this one before?

:rolling: Umm, kidding, kidding, :tomato:

This is a great vid, and one of the most toe-tapping songs I've ever heard. So perfect for Josef, vamp dynamo.
