I had exactly the same thing happen lol

Even before it was completely uploaded they knew what the content of the video was!

As annoying as it is thats bloody impressive!

I've just uploaded the audio of the NBC performance with a download link to the actual video on Youtube and that's been up for a good 11 hours now. It's so good when you upload a popular video, because all your other views start going up. Ive uploaded a FM video and that has gained around 3,000 views in the last two days.

Could people check for me if the download link in the video is working now, thanks.

Thanks for that! I was hoping someone would do that. The sync problem in the other one really annoyed me even though it was tiny lol.

It IS impressive, isn't it?! I wonder how they do it. The first time, I thought it was because I had Olympics in my raw file name so I changed it, but they still found it...

Just noticed on BBC's story about the new American Idol judge-

Quote:
“Grammy-nominated songwriter Kara DioGuardi, who has written tracks for Gwen Stefani and Kylie Minogue, is joining American Idol as a judge.

DioGuardi has also written and produced for artists including Christina Aguilera and Leona Lewis.”

Name didn't ring a bell for me anyway but quick check and she's mentioned beside Forgiveness - I'm presuming its production but someone can correct me if wrong!

See she has her name beside some other songs I love like Delta's Not Me, Not I and Predictable (which is generally just one of my fav songs!) She has a pretty impressive enough history imo. Should be a great addition!

It must have something to do with it being an actual video footage itself cos I've posted 2 videos (using images from the footage but not the actual footage itself) and they haven't been taken down..... Yet I really should be working on my disseration

There has been plenty of opportunity for her to have regular musicians and I just think it would help if she did.”

I talked about concerts and not about performances ! I know that she did a lot of performances of these songs but she has not done any OFFICIAL concerts. For exemple Colbie Caillat or Duffy have a band because they do a lot of concerts all over the world.
So like I said before, I think we have to wait until next year !

Thank you, thank you Not watched the original yet so looking forward to watching this when I get home.

What package did you use to tweak it?

Yup, don't think either of them are any good live.

Rihanna's voice is very distinct on record - its easy to spot one of her recordings.

Are they having 4 judges next year? Or have one of them dropped out?

Looks like its going to be a slow steady rise into the top 10.

As long as the spins and AI keep increasing, even slowly, that'll do

As Ethereal said yesterday, her daily spin increases last week were higher than they are now, hence the negative bullet.

But this will mean that if next week's daily spin increases return to last week's level, we'll see the return of the positive bullet.

The bullet doesn't really matter though, so long as spin and AI keep showing increases.

Interesting. The one change that moves it in the direction of X Factor.

Now Cowell needs to start implementing into X Factor the one change from AI I've wanted for ages - a live band

So did I. She's done Kiss and Q102 concerts in the States, NRJ concerts and M6 Live on the continent just off the top of my head. The american stuff she had a regular live band for (which yes, since you mention performances, she used for GMA etc. too) and they were a great addition! She doesn't have to do a headline world tour to qualify for real musicians lol. There are plenty of uses/opportunities to employ a band before then so no need to wait.

A live band on XF would be great.
I've found some footage of Leona singing (NBC footage I think), very good performance She looked great.
Reality show winner she may be but as the commentator pointed out, she's been No 1 in 20 countries
The comedienne Victoria Wood started on New Faces in the 70's.

OMG it's too hard to talk in english xD
Can I speak french ? lol
In fact I talk about her own concert (for exemple NRJ concert and M6 Live are a sort of festival) and I think it would be a bad idea to employ a band just for singing BL or BIT.. but you're right about the american stuff even if I never heard the backsingers'voices LOL

You should upload the tweeked NBC audio- thats the best yet i think. That yotube one is still quite bad sound.
