Default Video for King Carl XVI Gustaf & Queen Silvia

When GrandDuchess asked me to do a video to pay a tribute to both landmark occasionas that the Swedish Royals are celebrating this year, King Carl Gustaf's 60th birthday and his and Queen Silvia's 30th wedding anniversary, I searched for meaningful pictures and videos to best depict those years, and the result I present to you now, The Royal Forums' tribute to the Monarchs of Sweden.

Download the video here: http://rapidshare.de/files/18081131/...etter.wmv.html

Songs used

Brahms Lullaby, by Kenny G and

You are the sunshine of my life, by Stevie Wonder (one of the King's favorite artists.)

You are the sunshine of my life
That’s why I’ll always be around,
You are the apple of my eye,
Forever you’ll stay in my heart

I feel like this is the beginning,
Though I’ve loved you for a million years,
And if I thought our love was ending,
I’d find myself drowning in my own tears.

You are the sunshine of my life,
That’s why I’ll always stay around,
You are the apple of my eye,
Forever you’ll stay in my heart,

You must have known that I was lonely,
Because you came to my rescue,
And I know that this must be heaven,
How could so much love be inside of you?

You are the sunshine of my life, yeah,
That’s why I’ll always stay around,
You are the apple of my eye,
Forever you’ll stay in my heart.
(background) love has joined us,

Love has joined us,
Let’s think sweet love.

I would like to dedicate a Special Thank You to Lena, who was responsible for the successful download of the videos presented in this tribute. Thank you!

Unhappy Help needed!

Could someone please help me? For what reason ever I am not able to download the video. I click on the link and it leads me to sendspace.com. Again and again I click on "download", but nothing happens. What is wrong?
Does anyone have a clue what I could do?
Thanks in advance!

Perhaps you have a pop-up blocker installed? If so, then you could need to de-activate it before you click on the download link.

Thank you, GrandDuchess, for your answer!
I thought of a pop-up blocker problem, too. But my system allows pop-ups. That is unfortunately not the problem here.
I tried again to download the video and became a message in a red frame: "The download link has been updated. You may now download the file." So I clicked once again on the "Download: (Sweden01)Carl&Silvia Newsletter.wmv"-button. But nothing happend.
I am very sad, because I would love to watch this file.
Nevertheless I am glad that you tried to solve my problem, GrandDuchess! :)

Thank you, Yennie, for the tipp. I did it just as you said and now I get a new message. It says: " There are no free download slots available." They now want me to upgrade to sendspaceMax. Which costs money.
What a pitty...:(

Thank you all for the compliments on the video.

I have changed the link in the first post from SendSpace to RapidShare, I hope that it is better.

To download from RapidShare, click on the link, scroll down on the page, click on "free", wait for the countdown to finish, insert the letters or numbers in the box and click on download.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me via PM.

Thanks everyone who tried to help me! Finally I managed to download the video. After trying to download it via RapidShare I fund out the reason for my problems. I just had to use another browser and than I could watch the beautyful video.
Many thanks to you, Anna_R, for the great job you did. It is really an amazing, wonderful video! I loved it.

Thank you so much for that wonderful video. It is really amazing. I am very impressed of your work. And I wonder if there is the possibility to send it to the roaylcourt or to show it to the royal couple. It would be such a great plesure for them to see it. They will enjoy and love it!!! Especially with this wonderful song of Stevie Wonder which fits so fantastic to that warm deep loving couple. Sorry of my english and my enthusiasm. But I feel they must see it!! Best regards from Antje Germany
