During the last six months I have caught myself exploring YouTube.com on more than one occasion, my what a treasure box. I quite enjoy the waste musical scope and have spent quite some time browsing/listening through the hours and hours of excellent (and not so excellent) musical entries, I quite enjoy listening to the “amateure” recordings of various songs – some are surprisingly excellent performed.
Should you wish to “harvest” some of the videos for your Ipod or just for enjoying offline I can recommend “Any DVD converter” which can both download and convert the YouTube videos (mind you the quality may not be perfect on your 42″ plasma ;-))..
A few links to get you started;

And finnaly this one – both pleasing for ears and eyes :-), now I somehow regret not taking French in School 🙂
Some weeks ago my daughter and I attended the Musical “Mamma Mia” performed in Horsens Denmark. And to use an Abba phrase “my – my – how can I resist you!”, what a truly excellent show. I would say Mamma Mia ranks at the top of any live performance I have attended for years, if not ever.. Money well spent.
And as a little twist, this summer the show will hit cinemas as a movie/musical with quite a promising cast even, so good things do get even better.. No doubt I’ll be in the THX center of that performance as well once it hits the northern Europe.
