YouTube Channel

 


     Around four years ago, during the pandemic, the time when everyone’s got too much time, I found a video editor on my computer. My niece put it there and used it. I never used a video editor, so I tinkered with it and tried to learn it, and afterwards, decided to create a video—about my favorite band, Pink Floyd. Maybe, I could put it on YouTube, just to experience creating a channel and uploading a video on YouTube and getting some subscribers. I thought of creating another video (also about Pink Floyd), then I finally created a channel and uploaded the two videos. YouTube forewarned me that the videos wouldn’t be monetized because almost all the songs in it were copyrighted. I thought all right and uploaded the videos. I monitored it the next few days, saw it getting microscopic number of views and not one subscriber—and then forgot about it.

     I only remembered it when I received an email from YouTube yesterday informing me that there were individuals claiming that they owned the songs in my video, thus, YT would put some restrictions on one of my videos. I thought all right and went to search for my videos and watch it again and probably delete the channel. And lo and behold, it already got almost 21 thousand views and around 38 comments (not one basher). And I got 20 subscribers. Lol. Sadly, the other video (the one threatened with restrictions) only got 2k+ views.

    So out of respect to those who subscribed (hehe), I didn’t delete the channel.

     Here’s the link to the video: Pink Floyd Songs In Movies

"Hey, This Song Has Built A House Inside My Head!"

Image
If you'd notice, I'd put a little musical thingamajig somewhere on this blog and I called it Last Song Syndrome. Last Song Syndrome, of course, happens when a song you just heard refuses to leave your mind for hours or even for days. You sing it or hum it while working or while taking a bath or changing your baby's or your granddad's diaper or taking your dog for a walk or just bumming around. I listen to a lot of Pink Floyd songs so most often than not, it is a Pink Floyd song that will always swirl inside my head. But I also listen to other musicians. I'll try to dissect and write a small background of every song that I will feature in this blog. The Final Cut is one of my fave Pink Floyd songs. Very emotional, very depressing and has great vocals by Roger Waters , it is one of the songs from the album The Final Cut (an anti-war CD that was released in 1983), the last album where Roger Waters (Pink Floyd's main songwriter) took part in. After that album, Water...

AND HERE'S SOME BAD NEWS...

Image
Seventeen years ago, Maureen Hultman, 16 years old, Roland John Chapman, 21 and Jussi Olavi Leino, 24, were returning home from a party when they were accosted and confronted by Claudio Teehankee Jr, 45. Teehankee, who was unknown to the three, demanded some identification. Leino took out his wallet and showed Teehankee an ID. Chapman approached them and asked Teehankee: “Why are you bothering us?” Teehankee drew out his gun and shot Chapman in the chest. “Why did you shoot me?” Chapman asked Teehankee as he was crumpling to the ground. Chapman died on the spot. Teehankee then ordered the now hysterical Hultman and Leino to sit together on the sidewalk. While seated, unarmed and begging for mercy, the two were gunned down by Teehankee. Hultman was killed while Leino survived and later identified Teehankee as the gunman. The nation was enraged with that senseless crime and demanded that the death penalty be restored. Teehankee was sentenced to one count of reclusion perpetua (ranging f...
