Da dum dum dum dum dum dum! Where can I find can can music online or on CD (and readily purchasable) on the internet?
I need some can can music. Not the musical Can Can by Cole Porter, or the soundtrack to Moulin Rouge, or the soundtrack to Looney Tunes, which sounds similar, but not quite. This is can can music, if you are unfamiliar. And you are welcome in advance for getting that tune stuck in your head for the rest of the day. Can can music is that peppy, exciting high-kicking fancy dancy music that is found in the actual Moulin Rouge. Usually Frenchy-ish?
Or, alternatively, is there a way to record music from youtube aside from audacity to record the audio while watching it?
Thank you and lots of high kicks and fluffy skirts in advance.

Best answer: Can-Can (from "Orpheus in the Underworld")

The version I listed is on itunes. Can't say it's the best version but it's the version I have on this computer.

Side note: For an alternate take on Offenbach's Orpheus in the Underworld, check out The Rage's ambient-space-noise version.

This site's a quick way to extract audio from a Youtube video. You can also use Quicktime Pro.
I will say, just to completely clear my conscience, that another time someone recommended Listentoyoutube here, someone else said they got a virus there. I've never gotten a virus there and I don't see any other mentions of that online, but there you go.

Try Grooveshark and do a search for "can can." No promises.
