I did try that (twice!) but for some reason it wouldn't work for the first 2 videos, all I got was a blank screen with no video. 
Any ideas as to what I might have been doing wrong?
It worked for the last video, though. Thanks for the help!

Re: Sherlock Songs
Ahh! Lovely! What a beautiful song to start the day off. I really like the music of Flo and her Machine. Her voice is unusual isn't it. Funnily enough I was listening to a programme called Desert Island Discs on BBC Radio 4 the other day which had Florence's uncle Craig Brown, the satirist, as its guest. He was saying that although his daughter is also a singer he never gets nervous when she performs but does when Florence performs, as she wears these really high heels and then climbs ladders and things!
Thank you for posting this. As I said, lovely!

Re: Sherlock Songs
While I like the original version of this song, I really love this version as performed by John Barrowman, who has such a beautiful voice.
This one is for John Watson...hope you like it...

Re: Sherlock Songs
The last time I went on Guide Camp we were singing this song and I didn't realise how relevant it is!
He fell from fifty thousand feet without a parachute
He fell from fifty thousand feet without a parachute
He fell from fifty thousand feet without a parachute
And he ain’t gonna jump no more
Glory, glory what a hell of a way to die
suspended by your braces when you don’t know how to fly
Glory, glory what a hell of a way to die
And he ain’t gonna jump no more
He landed on the pavement like a lump of strawberry jam
He landed on the pavement like a lump of strawberry jam
He landed on the pavement like a lump of strawberry jam
And he ain’t gonna jump no more
Glory, glory what a hell of a way to die
suspended by your braces when you don’t know how to fly
Glory, glory what a hell of a way to die
And he ain’t gonna jump no more
They put him in a match box and they sent him home to mum
They put him in a match box and they sent him home to mum
They put him in a match box and they sent him home to mum
And he ain’t gonna jump no more
Glory, glory what a hell of a way to die
suspended by your braces when you don’t know how to fly
Glory, glory what a hell of a way to die
And he ain’t gonna jump no more
She put on the mantel piece for everyone to see
She put on the mantel piece for everyone to see
She put on the mantel piece for everyone to see
And he ain’t gonna jump no more
Glory, glory what a hell of a way to die
suspended by your braces when you don’t know how to fly
Glory, glory what a hell of a way to die
And he ain’t gonna jump no more
She put him on the table when the Vicar came to tea
She put him on the table when the Vicar came to tea
She put him on the table when the Vicar came to tea
And he ain’t gonna jump no more
Glory, glory what a hell of a way to die
suspended by your braces when you don’t know how to fly
Glory, glory what a hell of a way to die
And he ain’t gonna jump no more
The Vicar spread him on some toast and said what lovely jam
The Vicar spread him on some toast and said what lovely jam
The Vicar spread him on some toast and said what lovely jam
And he ain’t gonna jump no more
Glory, glory what a hell of a way to die
suspended by your braces when you don’t know how to fly
Glory, glory what a hell of a way to die
And he ain’t gonna jump no more!
Sorry, I shouldn't laugh, it's not funny at all...

I was wondering if you'd like to have coffee...
Hmm. I really don't know. Oh, I'm sorry, did I say 'know'? I meant 'care'. I don't really care.

Superman by Five for Fighting (re: series 2 finale)
I can't stand to fall.
I'm not that naive
I won't wait to talk.
I hope you'll remember me.
I'm more than a fraud, I'm more than a freak
I'm more than a headline on this news-less week
And it's not easy to be me.
I could keep going, but I think you get what I'm trying to say Anyway, I think the song fits but would need to be adjusted for lyrics.

Re: Sherlock Songs
Let's try another one. This is an old song by America called I Need You. I particularly like the line about 'every story told about me'. Really fits Sherlock and John.

Re: Sherlock Songs
Sherlock's "unique perspective on life & the world"
phase 1: Sherlock discovers that he has a unique perspective
phase 2: Sherlock tries to justify why he has a unique perspective & what he's gonna do about it.
phase 3: This is the result of Sherlock's unique perspective

How about this for Mrs. Hudson? The thought made me laugh anyway.
