From a comment at Google sites to host and hotlink music files
"ok I have loaded a list, how do I play more than one song?"
Haven't studied how to create playlist with Google Sites (check back later), so I tried using Youtube and tested it twice - Test embedding Youtube Teresa Teng playlist (my favorite singer who unfortunately died young) as well as Test embedding Youtube Bee Gees playlist (bring back memories of the good old times), and here are the steps I took to embed those 2 playlists:
Create a Youtube if you don't already have one and sign in. Either upload your own videos with music or search for those songs you want to include in your playlist. At the page showing the selected video, click + Playlist:
Give your new playlist a name, then click ADD. Search for more videos and repeat the ADD process till all the videos you want have been added.
When done, click the down arrow next to your Youtube username at the top right-hand corner of the page and select ACCOUNT:
At the next page, click Custom video players:
then click Create custom player. Give your player a name and enter some description, select the color theme, the layout, then under CONTENT, highlight the playlist, then click SELECT:
Next, at the section for Generate Code and Save Player, click GENERATE CODE and you will get a script similar to the one below to copy-paste into your post editor or into a HTML/Javascript gadget:
<object width="416" height="337"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/cp/vjVQa1PpcFNYcUl_cZNmLaxf1CI296PUeiBMfZ3_X9k="></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/cp/vjVQa1PpcFNYcUl_cZNmLaxf1CI296PUeiBMfZ3_X9k=" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="416" height="337"></embed></object>
Note width and height (in red). If you want to edit the codes so that the width of the embedded video player is commensurate with the width of your main column or the sidebar, use the method to resize Youtube video with no distortion so that it fits nicely into your post or sidebar.

Hi I have a three column blog at sureshadams.blogspot.com. I want to host a different blog with the same template but on my own hosting. Can I host a three column template on my own hosting and own domain name. please help and guide me.
Thank you
If I understand you correctly, you want custom domain and self hosting. This means you will publish your post via FTP. In this case, you will have to use old classic Blogger template. There are 3 column old classic template that you can use.

I don't deal with audio much but I figure the first thing you need to do is to familiarize yourself with the various audio file formats and make sure that the file you get from that CD is in the format which you can upload to file host which allow hotlinking. You may also consider Google sites for hosting music files. Then you may add mp3 player to your blog. Or read about Adding music to your blog or add music to your blog another easy way or invisible background music player

What you want done can be done using a combination of scroll box and HTML table and resizing Youtube video for embedding to appropriate size for the scroll box.
