Yes I know, another music post. This one comes simply to test Imeem’s embeddable player which I had only used once before on selectiveapathy.com. It is a bit slow to load but it seems to be one of the few players which I can’t find the embedded audio source to download. I had been worrying about that lately as the it is easy to find the source audio file using the player I am using just now…which may be regarded as illegal.
The song is called She’s Gone. There are several versions of this song from different artists but Tank’s is the first version I heard back in 2007 and I think is the best.
Tank is a great singer with a very captivating voice. Sadly I have not heard anything new from him for a long time, although he does make some appearance, the latest being on Ginuwine’s A Man’s Thoughts.
So have a listen on imeem’s player, please bear with it if its slow to load and tell me if you manage to find the source and download the song. Sorry the player has ‘adverts’ attached to it, damn I meant to keep selectiveapathy.com free of those. Ah well, we’ll see how it bears up.
Edit- Damn, right after I posted this I was able to download the song from here. It looks like the download thing only doesn't work when its on the actual imeem site. At least the imeem player gives links to the legal download sites.
This still worries me but I have researched this and it seems at the moment it is impossible to restrict folk from downloading streaming media. Well I guess I shall keep on posting music I like untill I get complaints, then I will have to settle to linking to other sites rather than embedding.
Shes Gone - Tank

:) cool song
I did heard of tank songs . Not bad. Anyways nice post.:D
I've had issues in the past when I wanted to enable readers to download songs. Recently I have been uploading mp3 files to my googlepages and I simply place the link in my blog post so that anyone could download it. I've never tried embedded players though.
That's the first time I'm hearing something from Tank. He's got an awesome voice if you ask me. That's the magic of blogs! We keep on discovering things!
Thanks for the comments guys.
Morinn, my aim was actually to try and prevent people from downloading the song mainly due to the scary stories and future laws in the EU at the moment regarding providing/sharing copyright material. Even sites like youtube are getting bigger lawsuits against them and you may notice a lot of videos are being taken off.
However I recently read an article which said that it is usually big commercial sites/blogs which are targeted not the average blogger with a personal blog who does not make any money from it.
I like how new people and friends influence what music you listen to.
I try to post music I like but never seem to reach the mainstream, check out my other music posts!
