Any 'You Tube ' lurkers out there?

Have you found anything in You Tube that you want to share with us? I don't have much tinme to lurk, so this may be the perfect way to share.

I found this one, which says something about 'Doing Nothing.'

You all have a wonderful lazy summer day!

My summer anthem

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8UImcZG3pIA

My anthem today as I go into hospital for yet another colo-rectal prodecure

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Avzv6laPCsE

"They say that all good things must end some day...."

Love this song too, Lola. I think the last time I heard it was when I was 17 years old. (about a hundred years ago.)

We saw this on TV last week - still brings tears to my heart!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BcgM_6x9neo

beautiful Eagle. Here's one of my favs.
I think the second one down has music and is clearer.



http://search.yahoo.com/search?ei=utf-8&fr=slv8-tyc7&p=youtube%20lion%20christian&type=

Wow! these two videos made my day! Thanks Eagle heart and Chick!
Eagle, couldn't help think of my granddaughter, who has music in her bones. Talent is layed in the crib of so many of these little stars. The lion reunion really got to me.I never would have found these on my own.
Wow.

How do you gals find this stuff. Does soemone send you the link or do you do searches? I'm just curious.

Dotsie, I am on facebook and people send them to me sometimes.Other times I do a search.
Ok ladies, here is a video that tells about where I was born and grew up. I have weeped my way through the whole video...it made me soooo homesick. Remember to enlarge it(lower right hand corner of video)so you can see it full screen. Enjoy a little bit of me.
If it doesn't come up, it is called 'If God made heaven here on earth he'd call it Newfoundland.'

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=saDsP8c4-rE

Chick, I loved both videos. The one about Christian the Lion was so touching! And I had a few tears in my eyes while watching the Newfoundland one too - my Mom was born and raised there too and no matter where else she ever lived, always had that hankering to go "home" to the Rock.

This is one of my favourites (I have it on CD) - everytime I hear it, it reminds me of BWS.

Good grief...has anyone listened to little Connie Talbot? she's amazing!!!

Here's Connie Talbot

Here's Andrew Johnson

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9K2EA8SWhh8&feature=related

And, here's George whose story is that he did not make it to the semis last year but busked his way to earn money for the trip to another audition the following year. George suffers from Scheuermann’s disease but, against all odds pursues his dream to dance. He won and shall dance for the Queen in November.

Nice thing about YouTube is that it captures the talent of children like them and allows for the sharing of admirable children. I like talent shows, too, because I love being surprised by the remarkable talent of ordinary folks. It only shows that they are not ordinary afterall. Cool.

Those babies are matured souls.

Here's a tear jerker (and current theme song) for me (it's a dense download so bare with it, I think you'll be touched).
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AijRBQf-ato&feature=related

I'm enjoying all that has been shared so far... it's as if I'm seeing into your hearts.

Gims!!! That was my Dad's favourite song. Thanks so much.

Your dad has GREAT taste! Who does he like singing it? I love Luther Vandross (singing anything!).

Robert Goulet, Gims. Dad was a fan. Oh, I love Luther Vandross, too. Dance with My Father stops me on my tracks all the time since Dad passed away years ago.

Chick, I can feel with you. Newfoundland is a beautiful corner of this world. My brother went on a bike trip there and just loved it.
Two German sayings come to mind when seeing this video.
“Never tear out a tree and plant it elsewhere.”
and
“Homesickness is worse than thirst.”
Eagle, yes, I had to think of all of you when hearing the lyrics.
Lola, Andrew’s singing gave me a goose bump attack

Gims: “I'm enjoying all that has been shared so far... it's as if I'm seeing into your hearts.” Ditto gims. This is so much fun, hope we keep this thread up for a while.

Andrew Johnson is phenomenal - does anyone know where he is now?

I've been listening to more of Connie Talbot...especially enjoyed this one (Wonderful World):

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M2yBn4Lpfv8&feature=related

Eagle, Andrew Johnson won 3rd place and is currently touring the UK. He was also head chorister for Carlisle Cathedral.

Here's 17-year old Jesse who competed for the role of Nancy in Oliver. My grandson's favourite. She did not manage to win it though.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6E1ceznS91w&NR=1

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1hoMfXaVpcA

And here's Jodie who won the role.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUBpirslaoc&feature=related

Lola, YouTube is telling me that those videos are not available in my country. First time I've ever seen that.

You can't view the links, Eagle?

Lola, no they don't show up.

But again, following one link to another, I found this -

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MlVRdAU2-R0&feature=related

There are lot of these videos around, I don't know which one is the legitimate one, but still amazing to watch.

Hey guys, my best friend posted this video and she showed it to me last night. It's her dog, being offered the choice between Cookies or having a Bath - really cute for all you animal lovers:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uSWlnwPvqT8

That's adorable. I thought it was funny that I didn't see her mouth move when there was barking. Then I saw the other dog so I'm assuming it was that dog that was barking.

Our dog would react the same way with "bath" and "a treat." They are so smart.

Had to giggle as your friend tried to coax him with "c-o-o-k-i-e", Kathy.

Eagle, I must show that clip to my grandchildren. They'll surely have fun with it.

Who is cuter, the biter or the bitten?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_OBlgSz8sSM

I just love the older one. His facial expressions are priceless! I'm still chuckeling as I write this. Thanks Lola. I got to see if I find something as cute. Don't think so.

Lola, I had to watch that one a couple of times... made me belly laugh - too cute!!!!
EW, I loved both kids, but the older one was so serious at a point, it added so much!

British humour...

The Goon Show was a popular radio show with skits performed by the Goon gang which included Peter Sellers.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VSSGiA4f5cs

The late Tommy Cooper was one I also enjoyed.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pKblP3_EkM0

A rather long clip of Morecombe and Wise but a giggle throughout.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vP8TUe993uo

My husband and his dad love the Pink Panther's movies with Peter Sellers. They roar at those things.

Thursday morning humor - 'member Foster Brooks?:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cGlTPjx3R8c&feature=related

If you enjoyed the old Carol Burnette Show back in the day, this should give you laugh and be a kick for you.

Harvey Korman who just passed recently here's to you:

www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q9T8i4FkNVo

Jackie, that clip got me laughing tears! I love seeing actors trying to supress their laughter. Hilarious...thanks for the laugh!!

Here's one that I had on my facebook today. It's so cute.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9j0rvGwds9U

Mij, it is amazing that people have saved these old videos, and can now share on U-Tube. What a treasure of memories.

I like the big kitty in the mean kity song. Mean, but what a cutey.

And I can’t believe that Parrot. His owner must be an Indian Chief. It’s more than awesome!!!!!!!

And thank you for dedicating Edelweiss to me. Such a mushy song…fits good in my mushy brain…hee hee.

Loved the Julie Andrews and John Denver piece for our EW. That movie was my childhood fav. And John Denver was such a hit while backpacking in high school. We sang his songs while hiking.

Its nice to see something besides garbage on U-Tube for a change...Ah, the Pink Panther movies.. I loved Peter Sellers as Inspector Cluesoue.(?) I doubt I ever laughed so hard. He was the comedic genius of his time...

Mij, I do spend a lot of time on YouTube as well and dig up mostly concert clips and performances of artists I have enjoyed so much in the past and would like to watch in over and over again like Sylvie Guillem in "Manon" and the "Dying Swan" of Ulyana Lopatkina.

Here's a jewel I discovered many months ago on Julie Andrews aged 12. It's just a recording as the performance was on a radio show.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iV2-YGGn0y4&feature=related

May I throw a little oboe in?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRb8KKyenSY

stirs me every time!

We don't have PBS in the UK, Mij. I miss it!!! And, I so get the snowballing into other treasures once one gets surfing YouTube for clips. It happens to me as well. I'd love to view more of the treasures you find.

Here's my fave classic and R/B collaboration.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=12CrdYfUNQA

Liza Minnelli at 17 in London with her Mom

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sd04_BxfJzU

And, here's Chad and Jeremy now. Still sound the same.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZYMSQPKHyJc


Gims, loved the film as well. Here's a violin for your oboe. My grandson started to play the violin after I took him to a concert of Maxim Vengerov's.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJSYXWYTMOQ

Here's a Menuhin and Grappelli collaboration

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xV0IcFyXUWs

This is very cool . . .

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jwMj3PJDxuo

Not YouTube, but awesome! Shin Seung Hoon

Thanks, Gims. I really enjoyed it and have been listening to it on a loop!

Gims, that was beautiful! I have it bookmarked.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AjCFYpWDmfM&feature=related

This is one of my all-time favourite scenes.

http://www.youtube.com/user/TEARS329

Princess Lenora reading first chapter of her book. (Sorry girlfriends, I can't help myself.)

Did you replace the first one with this, Lynnie? I viewed the interviews as well and post a direct link to that. Hope you don't mind. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uvMCdXZYH0A

Hope you do more of it and wish you well in your mission.

You look good!!!

Mij, I love Improv Everywhere! Have you checked the rest of their videos?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1QQzbCmlZM4

To get your juices going!

YEEEEEEES!!! It is flooooooooowing!!!

Just watched it again and I say: Swiiiiiing me around, Baby!!!

Oh, Lola, of course I don't mind. It occurs to me how grand it is to listen, view, talk, interact all over the world!

Wow, JJ,
Watched the YouTube on Swing dance that will keep you in shape for sure . I did my morning walk and felt good . Oh, the knees LOL.Makes you smile

Best ,
Renee

I know...isn't it fun? When I want to get my blood moving, I watch it. Sometimes I even get up and dance.

Is'nt it great, Lynnie!

Lynnie you are stunning. I saw and listened to your videos.

It breaks my heart to think these atrocities have been done to you. You carry a light within you, and you are quite the lady to spread the word around for other woman to share, relate, and find comfort knowing they aren't alone.

I just watched Christian the Lion again and blubbered this time too...

Lynn, I just watched your videos...I have to echo Edelweiss...you are stunning. Watching you brought me to tears, tears of sadness for all that you endured, but even more, tears of joy for the inspiration that you are, for the courage, light and strength you radiate. You ARE love and light, Lynn. It vibrates out of you and touches hearts. Thank you, thank you, thank you for living and being, and for touching/blessing my heart and life!

http://www.tapping.com/

Anyone else hear about this? Did it work? I tried it, and I really think it worked. What about you?

God Bless the USA
Even in those who aren't in the USA can appreciate the sentiment and talent of Lee Greenwood, right?

EW, I was introduced to tapping through another site I'm a member of. It doesn't work for me. How about you?

Gims, I tried imagining how I feel when I'm upset and frustrated with my Hubby. I usually feel a dull pressure in my chest. So I imagined being upset, like they suggested. The pressure came. Then I did the tapping and it was gone. I don't know if it works when the real thing happens, but it is worth a try.

I love visitng this site. So many beautiful songs. Just love it.

Yep, Gims.

I sing My Country Tis of Thee when this comes up here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tN9EC3Gy6Nk

I have nothing against the British anthem but, obviously being Yank, I cannot sing it. I wish her well though.

Yes, search for: Eight in Dog Years! You might like this!

Has anyone checked out Vicki Taylors grndbaby on her youtube? She is adorable and the interaction between grandma and grandbaby will make you smile...

No, how does one find it, Chatty? Do you have the link?

Chatty, I'd also like to see it. Do you have the link?

Well, I've tried to post a couple of times, and I keep doing something wrong. Just call me the techno-klutz!

But I wanted to share my Solomon's Beloved YouTube with you. A good way to end the day is with a good laugh! Hope you enjoy it!

Vonda...I LOVED it! You are so creative!

Vonda, that was just too delightful and hilarious! Thank you so much for sharing that...I'll have a whole new appreciation for who I see in my own mirror tonight. The current theme during my prayer time lately has been "see with new eyes"...your Solomon's Beloved certainly helped me to do that!

Hilarioius Vonda, and glad you made it here. WELCOME!!!

OMG, OMG, OMG!!! I so wish I could share this with my mom....lol. I also would like to see this in person. The camera cut away on some good belly laughing... made me wonder what other facial expressions and antics you were doing. Thank you for a good laugh. and welcome.

HAVE YOU BEEN?

Well, you have now... been Rick-Rolled, that is. This has been going on for a long time. Look at the number of views. This internet fad is when someone clicks on a shared link and is surprised to be directed to a video of Rick's “Never Gonna Give You Up.”

I'm still trying to figur out You Tube. I was just on there and saw some pretty disgusting stuff. (not Vonda's, of course.) But I just clicked on randomly and found some horrid videos. Do people go on there and put there own video clips on there or what? I thought you could do that. Some of it looks like it could be. Do you have to join it? How does it work?

Lousia,
You can go onto the site Google and you will see in the right hand corner "More" click on the errow and you will see "You Tube" and not sure about joining . I found "Ballet Russes" on theat site of You Tube .


Just some thoughts ,
Renee

JawJaw... I'm afraid to ask you to test this one... it was in a YouTube line-up with the Sinatra one. I just tried it again and it ran fine.

Would you delete it also... I DO NOT want to hurt anyone's computer.

Hi Y'all. Thanks for the encouraging feedback! I LOVE doing Solomon's Beloved! I have to admit, she's a hit wherever she goes. But I DO want you to know that she's just a little vignette from a couple of my presentations. I promise there's a real message in there, too. But what better way to share an important message than to get us all on the same page with laughter?

I hope you all have an awesome Labor Day weekend!
Blessings,

Hi Louisa

To upload videos...which vary all over the boards in quality and in topic as I'm sure you found...you do join and there is no charge to do so. I've been lurking there for a while and uploaded my first "video" today. It was really an audio clip with a static picture throughout. On another thread, we were discussing whether we believed in past lives and I recorded an experience I had with a past life regression. Now that I know how to do it, it wasn't so hard. However, that doesn't count the gazillion tries over the weekend to figure out what in the heck I needed to do. I mean really, what *is* the "correct" format? ARGHGHGH!

At any rate it was fun to play with and enjoy listening to a bunch of classical music while I work. You can create a playlist (like your own personalized "record") and it can play in the background. Fun stuff and a great way to make sure I feed my case of NSOS (Next Shiny Object Syndrome)!

One of my favorites is "My Wish", which I played at my wedding to Gil last year when we brought our sons up for a commitment ceremony. It touched the entire crowd and we looked out to see everyone swaying in time to the music and waving their candles (it was night wedding).

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xz32I_GbpeU

It touches me so much and it is the message I want to send to everyone I know!

Vonda

Oh my goodness...too hysterical!!!!!!!!! Thanks for sharing your amazing gifts!

Today the song "I'll Never Find Another You" by The Seekers came to mind. What a great song!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oc9EJdgpLW8

I posted this last year in a different thread, perfect for me when I get up grumpy and a classic one to boot

http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=mXv8WW3Wjvw

http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=0xmxUimjnaU

How on earth did The Dame keep her face straight!!!

Poppie

Totally missed this one...brilliant!! I would have been siotting on me Daddies knee when these where first aired....and crying because we were laughing so hard!!

http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=U817vt5Br44

NYWomen, listening to your youtube selection, I'll Never Find Another You, made me want to cry. For some reason, it pricked some deeply sentimental feelings. Some songs do that to me, Music Box Dancer being one in particular.

We should start choreographing our meal preps...lol.
And look how young Tom is!!! OMG!

I'm moving to North Dakota... I love their Senator Dorgan.
I caught him on CSPAN, talking about the bailout, the other day. Really enjoyed his presentation on the Senate floor.

Someone filmed street musicians from around the world singing the same song, and then edited it together. You got to watch to the end. I got goosebumps from it.

Stand By Me

We actually had this on here a while back, but if anyone hasn't seen it, DO watch it. It is really good.

That was awesome. That's the first time I've ever seen it. It gave me goosebumps too!

Woops, sorry for posting it again.
I loved this thread. Has anyone else found anything interesitng on You Tube lately?

13,500 people singing along to Hey Jude in Trafalgar Square last Thursday.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=orukqxeWmM0&feature=related

EW...see? There was someone who had not seen it, so post away, girlfriend! It doesn't matter if it's been on here before...don't even know what I said that! Duh?

Lola...what fun that was to watch...everyone on common ground to sing a song that meant something to them. There's probably 101 reasons to love that song.

I loved it!

Edelweiss, I'm VERY glad you posted that link. I hadn't seen it before and thoroughly enjoyed it. Hubby enjoyed it too. We turned up our speakers and listened to it a few times. Then we sent it to several other people. So you brightened up several people's day today!

Lola, I'll have to come back later and listen to that one. Hubby & I are "Dancing With the Stars" in 6 minutes!

Lola, I just watched "Hey Jude"....what fun! It brought a smile to my heart to watch all those people sharing such a neat experience together.

Glad you enjoyed that.

Here's another one. Rather long (9 minutes) but, very charming. Hope you all enjoy it.

A shorter version:

I love Andre Rieu. Here he is playing a piece my Dad used to play with my grandmother. Never fails to move me.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LX1fiE0U1qA

And, here's Andre again but, in my neck of the woods and a chance to wish you all GOOD MORNING from London!!!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ia34kknFpk0&feature=related

Well...top of the mornin' to you too, Lola!
Tapping my feet under my desk here...

Here is sweet Andre playing in a huge football stadium in Muenich.

Oh wow...what a way to wake up your day. I also listened/watched the ones at the bottom of that screen, EW. Did you see the Lord of the Rings one? Wow, wow..wow! You know what struck me as so cool? The way that Andre looked while performing. So happy!

He's cute!

I saw Andre in concert; love him.

Alice

I saw LORD OF THE DANCE in person at New York, New York in person, right down in front a few years back and OMG, it was awesome. The colors and the dancers, WOW, is all I could say.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NhhpIIFdX80&NR=1

I thought this interesitng. I have very dry skin, especially since I take Beta-blocker. I realize the video wants to sell their product, but still he has some good tips.

Wow, I need to check the lotions I use to see if they have those ingredients. I'd never heard that what you put on your body is the same as drinking it.

Do you take Fish Oil, and if so, have you noticed a difference in your skin?

I take it sporadically because I taste fish for a couple hours after taking it. Yuck! Ross takes the same fish oil and doesn't taste it. Isn't that wild?

Of course I ran to the bathroom and sure enough...there it was, all the "stuff" that one doesn't want...ew.
