Own a MySpace profile but wish to make it stand out?  Need something special, something cool to make a difference when someone is visiting your page? Then add music to your MySpace page and rock the world with your tunes! No technical knowledge is required; just follow some easy steps and enjoy your creation.

In particular:

1. Log into your MySpace account using your email address and unique password. If you do not already own a MySpace profile, click on ‘Sign Up’ and create one for free

here.

2. Once you have successfully logged into your profile, click on the ‘Music’ tab on the top toolbar and between the ‘Friends’ and ‘Videos’ tabs. You will then be redirected to a new page where you can choose between most popular songs, featured songs or choose your own typing the name of the artist or band on the search engine.

3. Browse among the various search results and once you find the one you want, click on it. This will bring on the artist’s profile where you can either choose to download a track, comment on it, browse the song’s lyrics or add it to your MySpace page. Find the song you want and click on ‘Add’.

4. A new confirmation page will open up asking you whether you really want to add the particular song to your profile or not. If you wish to continue, then click on ‘Add Song to Profile’. Otherwise, click ‘Cancel’ and choose another.

5. On the next step, you will be notified that the specific song has been successfully added to your profile along with various options such as to go back to the artist’s profile, view your profile or browse the profile song history.

6. Click on ‘View my Profile’ and wait for a few seconds until the page loads. The song will start playing as background and on the left of your main profile page will see the integrated music player.

7. You can delete a profile song anytime. All you have to do is to log into your account, click on the ‘Profile’ tab and then ‘Edit’. Locate the song and hit on ‘Delete’. Alternatively, click on the minus sign (-) on the music player to completely remove the profile song.

8. To choose another song, repeat steps 1 to 6.

Adding music to your MySpace page adds a new meaning to social networking profiles. Each time a user visits your profile, a background music will be launched boosting the fun to the limits.
