Yeargh, that's what I get for using OGG! (I had transcoded it to attempt to track the guitar part for Frets on Fire, and for some reason picked that instead of the original.) It will totally play if you install ffdshow.

I kind of want to have an event where people track terrible songs for UltraStar or Frets on Fire or whatever -- like a musical Knytt of the Month Klub -- but from my limited experience it kind of seems to take a long time (like, more than two hours) and a lot of tedious, unrewarding effort.

But I really want an excuse to be scored on my William Shatner impersonation at parties, so I persevere.

Speaking of impersonations,

Speaking of impersonations, for some time now I've wanted to make (beatbox?) impressions of various Klik & Play sound effects using my own voice.
