Share Songs With Your Facebook Buddies Using CloudApp

Upload Share MP3 On FacebookFacebook is all about sharing stuff with your friends online. Now let us assume you wish to share a newly released song with your friend. Unlike videos and pictures it is not easy to share mp3 on Facebook. Let us take a look at how we can do this.

1. Upload the mp3 file to any file upload service. Not every file uploading services work with Facebook. So we will be using CloudApp which I had tested to work fine. If you do not have an account with that service, sign up for a free one.

2. Login to the service and upload a MP3 you wish to share.

NOTE: After the mp3 file is uploaded, rename it using the edit button. Rename your file such that, there are + or – instead of spaces and remember to append the file extension. As you can see the file in example is renamed to “amake+amar+moto+thakte+dao.mp3“. If you do not follow this unicode naming, the file won’t play in Facebook.

3. Once the file is uploaded, rename it and then click the link. In the next page, press the download button.

4. As the download starts, right-click on the download to copy the source URL.

5. Now log in to Facebook and choose to update your status with a link.

6. Enter the URL you copied in step 4. Attach it and share mp3 on Facebook.

Now all your friends (if you haven’t edited the sharing settings) will see a simple player (as shown below) as your update. Using the play button they can listen to the song right on Facebook. Do you know any other way to upload and share MP3 on Facebook ? Please let us know.

    Glad you clarified my statement.

    All please help me. This isn’t working for me. When I download I’m not able to right click and get the boxes to copy the url? Also, I’m not able to rename the mps on cloudapp. For some reason it won’t save it. I can’t edit the name before I upload. I’ve looked on the “all downloads” page and tried to copy the url from there but for someone reason those urls won’t work with facebook. Help please.

  • Captain

    Sorry typo above. I “can” edit the file name with + and – before I upload and cloudapp seems to accept that but in the system I can’t get the rename to save. The main problem is the inability to copy the url during the “download”. Also I find if I click on “always open files like this” it automatically opens the mp3 in windows media player and I can’t change that setting. I had to create a new account and start over.

    This works great!

    But .. you don’t have to put + and/or – in the name instead og the blank space between the letters. At least in Google Chrome you don’t – it works for me to just upload and post :)

  • Walid

    It works. I have Tried this.
