Thank you, Greg.  Most members are considerate because they're aware that I'm blocked from opening youtube and even if they're not they post the names of the song and performer in text along with the link.  I'm able to open almost every one with bilibili or youku, but I just discovered that Rodeo is not one of the many Garth Brooks songs to which I do have access.  

Sorry to make the point in the manner that I do, but it does convey the extent of the frustration from what I am put through not so much by NT members, but by the entity that blocks sites where I am.

I'm sorry you live in such an oppressive place....

Not to take sides here but if you just copy and paste a youtube vid it shows smaller with the captions.

Plus it is easier and you don't have to embed it.

LOL. If you lived here you would know that the people here are no more oppressed than Americans are.  It's America that has the highest incarceration rate in the world, not China.  Frankly I feel safer here than I would feel if I were in the USA, especially knowing I need to own a gun there in order to protect myself and my loved ones.  As for access to the news, sure many news sources are blocked, but I read USA Today, npr world news and npr American news, CTV (Canada Television News), Microsoft Bing news roundup and Crooks & Liars (for fun) every day, can even read FOXNEWS if I want, but then contrary to Americans who are limited to the bias and misinformation and disinformation and outright propaganda spread by the American and western media I also read the OTHER side of the story on the China Daily.  

Sure there are certain limitations on what someone might say here, but I sure as hell have no desire to get up on a soapbox in the city square and call out what I don't think is right.  I have as much freedom here as I need or want and can live here much more comfortably than would be possible on my pension income than I could possibly afford in Canada or the USA..

Yeah but he reads the captions and looks them up on their version of youtube.

I doubt it as well, but if Ender tries it in a reply to me we'll see what happens.

Sorry to butt in on your article though. I always just thought it was easier myself anyway. I am lazy.  Haha

Come on Ender, I think that at least 90% of the members of NT are lazier than you.

JR posted Battle Hymn of the Republic and I don't think it's considered "country" music.

I know better - you're not at all lazy.  First of all, nobody who participates in the Movie Quizzes is lazy, and then you carry out your duties on this site.

I enjoy listening to a choir sing The Battle Hymn of the Republic.   I consider it very moving.

Got it here.  LINK ->

bilibili is doing this weird thing now to stop the song part way through and put up as screen - just click the X at the top right corner of it and then on the arrow at the bottom right of the image and it will play the rest of the way through.
