Capitalism, huh! I've been posting "Songs of the Day" for well over a year now and I'm beginning to think that this change in policy over at YouTube may just force me to cease this feature, which to me just sucks. I can understand the posting of new videos...of course the newest stuff should give them exclusivity, but a video containing the audio track with a picture of the singer? C'mon! I am a music aficionado and I share music I like in the hopes that other people will get turned on to something they might not necessarily have known about.
I know I'm not a critic for Rolling Stone or Billboard, but I've never gotten anything other than positive feedback from the stuff I've put out there, and maybe even sold a few songs for them to make money off of, too. I put links to both the electronic and CD versions of the songs, yet I do not do it for the money (of which I haven't made any anyway).
Today's song is my third choice, as I had to settle for a live performance on The Today Show because it's the only one that could be played on here. It seems that all of Rihanna's, Madonna's, Florence + the Machine's, etc. videos is not available for repost, and it really sucks! Though I could simply provide links to the YouTube pages with the videos, it just won't be the same. For now, for today, I have a Song of the Day, but I have no idea what tomorrow holds. Stay tuned...
Today's "Song of the Day" is nowadays a Rihanna classic. Released in September of 2007, this once very hot song seems like even longer ago considering all the stuff she's done since then. But a hot song it still is, and all you have to do is click play and enjoy it all over again.
