(though I wouldn't suggest that, as front pages are SUPPOSED to run faster).<p>Failing that, you could just stick it up as a link and put a little message that says "Listen to [insert song here]" and have people click it to hear... this will give them that little java pop up box for wav files.... then they can play it as long as they want, wherever they go on your page.
