Breaking News....Musical Monday bites the Dust

I'm very disappointed with the number of music videos that are unavailable for viewing lately. 
On my blog for others to see and on others blogs for me to see.

ad infinitum

And I've had enough.
I'm cancelling my Musical Mondays, starting right now. 
I'm very sorry, but I don't see any point in continuing.

  1. I am sorry too. I was (slowly) being educated, but totally understand why you are stepping away.

    1. Elephant's Child; I'm sorry to stop, but it just doesn't seem worth all the effort I put into finding and scheduling just the right version. I'll probably get a lot more reading done with free Mondays.

  2. That's a shame...it was always a fun, bright start to the week.

  3. You stuck with it for a long time. Time for a change.

    1. only slightly confused; change is good, but what to do? I'll give it some thought, but may just take a break.

  4. In enjoyed some of your selected music. Only this one failed at the time of publication. Don't spit the dummy and deprive us of your selections.

    1. Andrew; it isn't just this one time. Many times my videos haven't played for the overseas visitors, their videos don't play for me, and the things you put on your blog don't always play either. Sometimes it's a case of switch browsers and that's all I need, but too many times the chosen video says "not available" or "not available in your country", and yesterday I was angry enough to spit the dummy. Today I'm calmer, but still not sure if I'll start it up again.

  5. Hello River
    I might not have commented but I've always enjoyed your 'happy' start to the week. Why don't you start again in the New Year ? ~ Cathy

    1. Cathy; I'm glad you enjoyed them, did they always play for you? Or did you too get "not available" too many times?

  6. That is strange that the videos are not available. Now you must come up with a new Monday treat for us:-)

    1. Granny Annie; when it comes to thinking up things to post about, I'm as clueless as a fush trying to drive a car.
      ha ha "fush" that's New Zealand speak for fish, it's their accent.

    1. Jimmy; bigger and better? or sit around and read more books? I have a waiting stack so high it's in danger of toppling over.

    2. River, Whatever is bigger and better for you is exactly what matters, one book at a time Lady, and one post at a time also...

  8. Mondays will be different now!!

    1. fishducky; a bit different for me too, but the time I spent on other days searching for and scheduling, that will be very different for me. Time I can use to catch up on things I keep putting off. I used to enjoy the process, but when things started not playing, being "not available", that just doesn't feel good anymore.

  9. Such a shame. Was always happy to hear a new or perhaps old song.

    1. Arkansas Patti; I loved hearing old favourites too, but I still have them on my mp3 players to listen to. I'm disappointed that I can't share, but yesterday I'd just suddenly had enough and called quits.

  10. That's the same problem I was having since a year ago, I could listen at the site, but not record to my computer. Sorry.

    1. Sharon; I can still listen at You Tube, but even there now I sometimes get the "not available in your country" message, which I think is very unfair. Why should music be restricted?

  11. Sorry for Musical Monday's demise. Something else will come along.

    1. Val; I'm sorry too and maybe there will be a resurrection, but not for a while. Something else may take a long while to show itself too.
