I found Youtube.

Why - why - is this an acceptable place to waste time? How is watching women and men parading in almost no clothes a - a - goodness. What a wonderful way to take a good song (even if it sounds like half is in a foreign language) and make it attrocious.

What in the world is this? What is she singing about? I'm not even sure I want to know.

Music has changed so much; I do like some of it, to be truthful - but some of it is so galling. I miss Vera Lynn.

Now there was a singer.

youtube is a dangerous thing.

[citizensoldier0.livejournal.com]

So I've found. Have you seen the commercials? They're revolting.

[h4ck3r-61rl.livejournal.com]

I've seen a lot on there that I really could have done without. By the way - I like the singer. I'm a Sinatra fan myself, but she's good.

[citizensoldier0.livejournal.com]

I listened to I'll Never Smile Again more than I'd care to admit.

"The Forces' Sweetheart", right? I haven't heard much of her stuff, but that's a good song. I think my dad has a record.

[citizensoldier0.livejournal.com]

Yes, that's right. I had the fortune of hearing her on a few occasions while I was in Britain. She was wonderful; this song kept spirits high through some hard times.

[attorneyatlol]

Yeah. It's amazing what music can do for morale, isn't it?

[citizensoldier0.livejournal.com]

It is. Some soldiers kept pictures of home strapped to their helmets; I knew a few who kept scribbled lyrics, to this and other songs.

Don't know where, don't know wheeeen.

Doesn't this song just remind you of someone stuck on an island somewhere?

[citizensoldier0.livejournal.com]

Well, it was about the war. I rather like to think it's about getting off the island.

[croow.livejournal.com]

Which war? Civil war? Did North Carolina ever get its groove back?

((He got a somewhat bad history lesson from Joel. Just..ignore the crazy.))

[citizensoldier0.livejournal.com]

No, not the Civil War. I'm not that old. World War II. And, at - it's groove?

(((OOC: ROFL Steve will just be confused. <3)))

Another thing i don't like about this war...no American music allowed any longer!

[citizensoldier0.livejournal.com]

None? That's too bad, there was a good deal of interest. Vera was British, though, but I suppose you'd get none of that, either.

You should really check out xtube.

Just for your information.

[citizensoldier0.livejournal.com]

What. Is. This?

[enigmaestro.livejournal.com]

I'm pretty sure you're on it.

Or just a guy diddling around with a flag.

Oh yeah, you gotta watch out for some of the stuff on Youtube. Some of it's pretty awesome, though. I guess you just gotta know how to look.

[citizensoldier0.livejournal.com]

Really? I'm suddenly too afraid to really look for anything that might be good.

[fasterthan]

Probably the safest thing to do. Sometimes you can tell what's going to be in a video by looking at the title and description, and sometimes you can't.

What's wrong with a little flesh? I thought the Midgarder form was something to be appreciated?

[citizensoldier0.livejournal.com]

Appreciation occurs in private.

[notheoryinchaos.livejournal.com]

Oh? You've never complimented a pretty woman in public?

[goddamn-ironman.livejournal.com]

Don't tell me you went and looked up modern music because of my post.

[citizensoldier0.livejournal.com]

I had to see if it was all that terrible.

It mostly is, if you're wondering.
