I viewed the source code to get the links to download. Quiffy has already given you the link to one of the videos, it doesn't take a genius to work out the other 3. (Hint: Just change the last part of the url-the part containing the song title). Another way is just let the video download completely then go to start-find and search your windows folder for *.mov then copy the file to another folder.
I hate quicktime, it's such a crappy format. My quicktime player won't let me resize the window (if I do the video freezes) so I'm stuck with watching quicktime files in a crappy little window... except I have media player classic which seems to play anything.
Isn't quicktime a mac format? For heavens sake, mpg is an old file format and has been around for years. Hasn't anyone written an mpg player for macs yet so we can finally ditch quicktime once and for all.

the matter was that I wasn´t able to get the real player files...but this morning I got ´em...can you tell me what player is a good one?
I don´t like them all(winmedplayer,quick and the same is with real...)and how do I convert real player files into something different so that i don´t have to use my comp to listen or watch

Media Player Classic (an unofficial media player) plays almost anything except realaudio.
Real Alternative is basically Media Player Classic with the added ability to play realplayer files as well.

Media Player Classic has always played Real Media for me.

What I did was, with Quiffy's link:
1) Save instead of Open
2) Change the file extension to mpg from mov
3) Open with Media Player (or Classic)

I've no idea how you use it, it's the first one I found.
Dbpoweramp with the
shn codec would probably be better but it's only a 30 day trial version.

ah,but if I want to make a complete new installation of the computer quite soon and even just hope to need it this one time,it´ll be better?I do have to make the download and then install the player and seperately the codec,too...

So to clarify:
1) Right-Click on each of these and "Save Target As" (or whatever your browser's alternative is)
When I Call
Radar Love
Last Train
Celebrate
2) Change the extensions from .mov to .mpg
3) Open and sing along

hello,hello,it was about getting SHN files to WAV or something like that...the videos are done since yesterday...
...yesterday all my trouble...far away....far away...
(just one question,is Eldritch the reincarnation of Lennon?...no,can´t be...)

Strange that exactly those steps I did. But Media Player refused to play it.

what i found strange was when i tried to download them from
www.ghostdance they wouldn't play but downloaded them now from
dark's links and they are fine
so saying, a big
to herr marx and the quiffmeister...and dark (f**k me its gettng like an awards ceremony -off to watch t'ghosties instead!)

5 more added...
http://www.ghostdance.co.uk/downloads/video.php
the video footage on these ones is only half the size of the previous 4 i'm afraid. but they're still really rather smashing
also, i've jigged the order of them on the download page to match the running order posted elsewhere on the GD forum, but i've marked out the latest ones with a red "new" tag so you can spot 'em easily.

by Quiff Boy
and for those with download difficulties, here's how to get them on your pc (as per dark's post above
):
1) Right-Click on each of these and "Save Target As" (or whatever your browser's alternative is)
Cruel Light
Spin The Wheel
Take My Hand
A Town Called Sympathy
Heaven And Beyond
2) Change the extensions from .mov to .mpg
3) Open and sing along
