All right--word in the comments on the street is that you're restricted to smaller files, but you get more downloads at youshareit.com. This makes it feasible for me to actually upload stuff for y'all, so it's time for me to share the wealth after weeks (if not months) of mooching off other people's music posts.

ETA: Well, shit. Looks like youshareit doesn't want to play. We're back to yousendit, and I'm changing the links out as fast as I can. Let me know when a link runs out.

Thus, I bring y'all Valentine gifts:

"Cells," The Servant (Sin City trailer). I think most people who wanted it got it, but hey, why not? sweinberg and I hashed out the lyrics here.

"Strangelove," Depeche Mode. I just really like Depeche Mode.

http://s2.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3EVA8TWIZ5JV10YUJ8HW3ZJVEO

"I'm on Fire," Bruce Springsteen. Brief and quiet and haunting. I don't have it on this computer, but check out Tori Amos' live VH1 cover of this sometime. I'll post it once I get Betsy 2 online.

"I Hate Myself for Loving You," Joan Jett. Just awesome.

http://s2.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=22Z4H8ZQG8GTH2G1EYNJCS8DEF

"Layla," Eric Clapton (original version). I kind of wish I had a short edit of this song that cut off right when the piano starts, because--I mean, the piano is beautiful and I would keep the full version on hand, but... sometimes you just want guitars.

http://s5.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=2CL9DF6MHPN7J1NU85TU94753G

"Can't Get You Out of My Head," the infamous Garbage/Kylie cover. For those of you who didn't hear about this the first time: be warned, it's very short, and clearly just a tangent during a live concert performance. It's by no means a full, polished track.

http://s2.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=07HB67J9A5GTS0OJS3AYIH9HD7

"My Happy Ending," Avril Lavigne. Also known as "my secret shame."

http://s5.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3N04LUL9VNXQE2LTLA2ELFHZ6X

"I Would Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That)," Meatloaf (or is it Meat Loaf?). So incredibly awesome in its cheesitude.

"Lauren Caught My Eye," The Crash. A SONG WITH MY NAME IN IT OMG.
http://s3.youshareit.com/download.php?c3a249c26088aad5720acc96b46d4521
http://s2.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=0ZGO96AIN4BN92IE54YLZZBO76

"Singing in My Sleep," Semisonic. My favorite Semisonic song is "Secret Smile," but, again, it's not on this computer.

And two live Kelly Clarkson performances bootlegged from the first season of American Idol, both really beautiful and a sometimes rough but completely free of melisma (is that the word? The up-and-down Christina/Mariah shrieking). Not what you would expect now from the show:

"Think Twice"

I had trouble uploading some of these, so if for some reason the link doesn't work or the file isn't complete, let me know and I'll repost it.

Comments

[winter]

Either people already downloaded everything to death without leaving any comments, or something's wrong with the links :S And I applaud for the Joan Jett song :)

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Okay, the former is impossible as I posted this all of thirty seconds ago, so... let me check the links.

[moonlightnrain.livejournal.com]

Getting an error message on "Cells" and "singing In My Sleep."

I am amused by the line on the error page which reads "file was reported of heaving dangerous or illegal content." It does not report at whom the dangerous or illegal content was heaved.

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Oh, shit. I wonder if they're on to us. Because, I mean--hell, 100 downloads = mp3 sharing.

[arielchan.livejournal.com]

I'm getting "file not found" for everything

[i-will.livejournal.com]

Me too. But I won a 42" plasma screen TV, so it's all okay. :)

[someway.livejournal.com]

None of the links I tried (Both Kellys, and Joan Jett) are working.

~Sar

[moonlightnrain.livejournal.com]

Wait, wait. I figured it out.

Okay, right click on the link and Save As. Then go to that file on your harddrive and double click it. THEN you can download the song.

I just downloaded "Cells" in this manner.

[moonlightnrain.livejournal.com]

Eeep. Nope. None of the others work this way. *facepalms* Shutting up not, I swear.

[sweinberg.livejournal.com]

You love DM? Me too! Always have! (Only I don't talk much about it because everyone says it's "flamer music." But my Dad was a fireman so fire doesn't scare me.)

[modpixie.livejournal.com]

this is as good a time as any to post a clip (http://www.adultswim.com/clips/venturebros/ep06/index.html) from my favorite show and big fandom, the venture brothers (http://www.team-venture.net).

[pjrampolla.livejournal.com]

Which one was the Dread Pirate Roberts? I love that move, but I've never seen the beginning. Or read the book.

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

He was the secret disguise of one of the other characters, and was also name-checked in Phantom/15 Minutes. ; )

[the-wanlorn.livejournal.com]

Just wanted to note that your birthday's the day before mine. ;-)

Well, separated by a couple years of course... but still cool. :-P

The Dread Pirate Roberts from the Princess Bride. "Aaas...youuuu....wiiiish...."
hee! suddenly thought about the bunny hops and the shimmies...

[jedilora.livejournal.com]

Am waiting patiently for link-changeouts on a few of these, but just commenting to say yay for cheesitude! I bought the Pat Benatar Greatest Hits album the other day (it's a German import album, found hidden in the depths of Best Buy), and while I do love PB...she's totally got some wicked 80s buzz.

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Ooo, I got The Lovely Emily to burn that CD for me, and I've yet to listen to it. (And I'm changing out as fast as I can--trying to get the shorter files up first. Anything in particular you wanted?)

[spectralbovine.livejournal.com]

Whee! Garbage! What fun. Amusingly enough, my Winamp playlist has a section of songs:

Can't Cry These Tears
Can't Get You Out of My Head (Live)
Can't Seem to Make You Mine

Shirley is so negative.

And I think it's Meat Loaf, as his Fight Club credit would attest.

[lizzyrose89.livejournal.com]

Ooh, thank ye kindly for the music! So cool! :-)

P.S. Cleo/Dread Pirate Roberts = OTP!

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Tis meant to be, ARRRR.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_stormthesea/]

It took me hours (two minutes + cache + ctrl F) on Google to find those lyrics, and they were seconds from my fingertips all this time? Bah.

Is "I Would Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That)" that song in that pepsi commercial? The commercial makes me cry. The bastard won't give her pepsi. And that stuff's $4.99 at the grocery store for a six pack.

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Hee. It's some soda--I thought Dr. Pepper, but I have no idea. I just think him running out right as the music picks up and busts out is hilarious.

[pygmymetal.livejournal.com]

Getting them now, thanks.

Happy Valentines Day to you.

[(Anonymous)]

Happy Valentine's

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Awww, thanks. : )

[(Anonymous)]

Could I humbly request you refresh (or whatever) the Avril song? I've had no luck taping it off the radio...I'm so hopelessly low-tech, I know. I ended up liking Avril in spite of myself after my brother became a fan; her I'm-an-angry-angry-girl image is cheesy, but I keep hearing songs of hers that I can't help but like.
I have no Valentine's gift for you in return, but you are invited in spirit to me & my friends' get-together on the day: we're watching movies where stuff blows up good and eating chocolate. Hooray for girl-friends!

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

I just loaded it. : )

[pixiellie.livejournal.com]

Thank you for sharing! Any songs you'd like to get for a valentine's prezzie yourself?

[istoo.livejournal.com]

Thank you for the songs, very nice they were.
Have some chocolate from me :)

[kittygopounce.livejournal.com]

Thank you, Cleolinda! :)

[kittygopounce.livejournal.com]

And totally: Happy Valentine's day ...:X I forgot. I keep forgetting. Eep!

[faded-lilac.livejournal.com]

Happy Valentine's Day, Cleo! (and thanks for the songs)

[comedownstairs.livejournal.com]

Yay, music! Ganked the Sin City song along with the Kellys. And for payback, you can have "Secret Smile" for this computer:

[cleolinda.livejournal.com]

Aww, thanks. : )

[kaytethinks.livejournal.com]

I love Kelly Clarkson :)

And wow, the Lost DVD set sounds like it's going to be amazing. I can't wait :)

[modpixie.livejournal.com]

i liked the sin city song a lot better when i didn't know the lyrics. not that they don't have their charm, but they keep obstructing that super-awesome guitar riff!

[karintheswede]

Happy dread holiday

I'm on Fire kicks ass. Best song, evah! Johnny Cash' cover of it (on Badlands) isn't half bad, either.

[rosewing.livejournal.com]

Cleolinda, you are (once again) my hero! I've had that Meatloaf song in my head for like a week and don't know anyone who has it. In fact it gets stuck there everytime I reread Phantom in 15 Minutes.

<3

Now I want to see the video again . . .
