Must be restricted to certain countries then. Would be nice if youtube warned you about that.

Can you watch the video?

I can, yes. Sometimes videos are only allowed to be shown in particular countries, because some copyright holders wish it was still the 20th century.

Yeah, that's a bummer... which country did you set it to? I tried UK and global, didn't work. And of course, doesn't work in Brazil. I'm glad it's working for one country at least. :)

This is a great time to be alive. =D

Worked in the US. Doesn't work from VPN servers in Amsterdam, Moscow, London, or Paris. Does work from VPN servers in Hong Kong and Tokyo. So they like North America and Asia, but not Europe or South America?

I can only speak for Brazil. We are left out of a lot of things. But hey, we end up finding other ways to get the content we want.

This is the first time ever I had problems accessing music videos on Youtube. After searching a bit, you can find it on Spotify.

Speaking of Spotify, it took 6 years since it first started to open shop here (May 2014). It sucks. I don't know how Tidal or Apple Music deal with us here because I don't use their services.

Thanks for helping me anyway. :D
