Updated at 10:45pm and again at 11:15PM. I think I have done enough damage tonight, it's time to take my happy ass to bed.
I finally got it to work. After having spent $2 on a little piece of crap flash player from Flashden that supposedly lets you load multiple instances on the same page, but won't work at all, I came across a little javascript over at del.icio.us called playtagger that you imbed in the body of the web page using the following syntax:
Any mp3 that you link to in the normal way, i.e.
<a href="http://www.shadowscope.com/files/18.mp3">Alice Cooper - 18</a> becomes a playable link that looks like this:
It takes forever to load on my page because of all the crap in my sidebar I think, but just wait for the damn thing. The main reason I posted the directions was so that my wife could use it.

Damnit. I got the flash music player code working on the first one, but it won't show up at all on the second post I have it in. It's pissing me off. Moveabletype doesn't have a decent music player plugin, so no easy solution for me other than hand coding the links. I made sure to even just use copy and paste from the first one to the second, and it still won't work.
Maybe I will test and see if it works on the second player with the song from the first. I suppose something might be wrong with the file itself.
