HOLY CARP!!!
I just noticed that above the top-right corner of youtube's video pane is a lightbulb-shaped button. The text that appears when you mouse over it is "Turn down the lights". Clicking it dims the whole page except the movie window.

I love creative little touches like that.
As a good person, I implore you to do as I, a good person, do. Be good. Do NOT be bad. If you see bad, end bad. End it in yourself, and end it in others. By any means necessary, the good must conquer the bad. Good people know this. Do you know this? Are you good?

O.K. this is how I read the title.
"Turn down the lights" icon on youtube.
I thought you found someone (Sinatra, Mathis)an Icon, singing something romantic. And we should turn down the lights when we play it. But that's just me.

Apparently it only shows for longer videos.

Anyway, this guy doesn't seem to like it:
