Sharp Dressed Man -- Good news and bad news

This was my fourth video posted in February of 2008. It had been disabled (but not deleted) by YouTube for a while due to copyright issues, but then mysteriously starting working again with no explanation.**

Sharp Dressed Man


This version of the song was recorded by Jo Dee Messina.


** I’ve discovered that three of my videos that were preciously disabled are now available with what I think is an ingenious compromise to the music copyright problem. When this video starts to play, you will notice a fairly unobtrusive pop-up ad offering the viewer the opportunity to purchase the song from Amazon and/or iTunes. What a great idea!

ETA: As of 2/9/2009 this video has been disabled again. Please see post below for download link.

*clapping*

And squeeing a little. I loved this the first time I saw it and I am beyond happy that it's back.

So many marvellous moments. If anyone ever wondered what it is about Mick and Josef that makes us all go a little weak at the knees, watching this will give them their answer.

Thanks, Lilly. This is wonderful.

Red :D

Thanks, Red! I'm thrilled they re-enabled it. I'm especially glad because I realized that this is one of the few videos that gives Josh any "love." After meeting Jordan in Chicago, and finding out first hand what a sweetie he is, it made me all the more pleased that I had decided to include him here. Same goes for Brian, too.

Oh I loved that one... it was in my favorites... I so do not get the banning from YouTube thing... they all use copyrighted material, but no money is being made... right?

So what is the problem?

ANyway, glad to know it is back... I'll go take another look now, before it's gone again...

Grace - I think the problem for the musical artists is that their work was made available for free on YouTube, thus potentially cutting into their sales. I can't blame them for being unhappy about that. This resolution (and I don't believe all artists are allowing this) makes the YouTube video more like a free advertisment for them because the link is instantly available for viewer to buy their work. I just think it's a brilliant idea.

This is one of my favorites. It just says it all to me. It's how I think of the characters, the actors, it captures the essence of Moonlight. Terrific job and I'm so glad it's back. :D

Seeing the Josh clips and rewatching the show Jordan looks so different from on-screen Josh.
