does anyone else have the 11-27-2006 recording of wasted state of mind?
is it just mine that goes funny at about 3 minutes, or is that just the recording?

The one that I have does that too, probably something wrong with the recording.

hey, thats what it is!! id forgotten the website. thats pretty much what you do. copy the url then chose the format you want it in the download it once its converted

I used it for Blake says video and on the details the length came up as 35 minutes. although the size was still only about 4 or 5 MB.
When put on a mp3 player the song played to the end of the video then stopped, this is around 5 minutes in or so, when I fast forward to anything past that mark its still playing. Yet when played straight through it goes to the next song after 5 minutes.
It's not anything that makes a difference, just a little odd is all.
The same happened for the 'Mandy goes to med school' solo vid.

That happened to me, I was so pissed. I found a solution though. Using audacity, I re-exported it as an mp3, and it was fine. I can't remember if i had to chop off the excess or not.

this is happening to me too, any chance someone could tell me how to use audacity to make it normal time, ive tried, but cant figure it out

Make sure you have the mp3 encoder dll file for Audacity.

Open the mp3 with audacity, and using the selection tool, select only the part of the mp3 you want; usually its whatever part you see, because the extra 30 or so minutes is blank space. So select the actual music and whatnot, hit file, then export selection as mp3. and you're done.

Momus - I Want You, But I Don't Need You

I really, really, really need this song. So I am bumping this thread. Help, please?
