Yeah this crow can talk like I can sing like [insert your fav artist] with auto-tune.

Window's closed. Crow's volume picked up just fine.

Your video, Kid uses grandmas voice box for auto tune, has made it into the Top 15 New Videos listing. Congratulations on your achievement. For your contribution you have been awarded 1 Power Point.

I don't know who Halle Bailey is, but I'll be happy if she can sing. I get the disappointment if people feel this was supposed to be Disney's ginger princess and would be unhappy if any non-redhead was cast.

The most heartbreaking remake for me was Beauty and the Beast. I love the original and I've seen it many dozens of times in the last 20 years, and it wrecked me when I watched it full of Emma Watson's badly auto-tuned robotic singing... hurts me now even just describing it.

Hard to vote-up something that is so heavily dependent on Auto-tune just to make it sound mediocre. It's a shame they can't sing.

I call foul. Some of Marvin's notes have been auto-tuned to fit the chord structure of the Ratt song. That makes this mash-up anything BUT epic. Good effort though...

That's a pretty cool "experiment" to perform on the song. However, a fully scientific experiment should attempt to minimize the amount of variables that are being changed -- ideally down to isolating the effects of a single one. This changed two:

1) Auto tune "correcting" the pitch of instruments and vocals AND
2) Changing the key of the song from minor (original is in F minor) to major

I think that the pitch shifting from auto tune to perfectly hit the scale notes actually has LESS impact than transcribing the song into major key. Would be interesting to hear the same thing, but keeping the key in F minor and just using auto tune to shift everything perfectly into scale notes in that key. I think it would still be noticeably ... weird ... compared to the original, but it wouldn't have the bland / banal / happy-poppy feel from the key change.

"How to kill music, with the click of a button"

The case against Auto Tune!

I was with him for the first part.
And it's not that I can't take him seriously because of his hair - I found it very distracting to take singing critique from a Bieber look-alike...
He lost me when he says, "Even though your favorite artists probably cheats a bit in the studio, try to remember that tracks that you love by them might not have existed without this technology speeding up their workflow."

First, I think people like T-pain, Kanye, and Drake are most of what is wrong with the music industry today. So they definitely are NOT my favorite artists. Honestly, I refuse to call them artists. Artists hone their skills through tireless hours, years and dedication. Something these people don't do. (Hence the need for Autotune)

His point is exactly the point. Without Auto-tune, we wouldn't have these songs because they are utter garbage. It's Auto-tune that is the star, not the personas "behind the curtain."

And also, there is no fast track to learning skills. Yes, as he states, "speeding up their workflow" is just that. Workflow. This means it helps them produce tons of this crap without ever improving their skills, because they don't need to. They just need to rapidly produce song after song, while waiting for the one that is the most catchy to stick in people's minds. Then the conglomerate of industry leaches will pick it it up in hopes they all generate a few bucks from it. Meaning, they get radio play for producing crap song, after crap song.

Sorry to rant here, but pick up an instrument, learn to play. Learn how to sing, learn to hit a note. Entrance us with your skills and abilities. Seduce us with abilities that impress us. Gain our respect with your talents.

The guy in this video is just as fake as a Bieber look-alike, and while he starts to point out that they are3 cheating, he ends by enabling them showing us how great Lois's recorded voice sounds like once Frankensteined. This is not okay.

Note: I'm posting this comment to the YouTube video as well

That's actually way more than most can take.
Review in a major Norwegian newspaper here.

Tag line: "...Like a Grinch with a squeaky auto-tuned voice, Iselin Michelsen returns.
Christmas is sacred, Iselin, and f**k no if you should be allowed to drag it through the December mud like this."

I don't know. I'm sure they'd be able to come up with the whole song withOUT auto-tuning.

Some ungodly amounts of auto-tune going on there

Sounds pretty auto-tuned to me, but is still quite awesome!

My apologies - wrong word. Digital "assistance" or "aid" would have been better (in response to newtboy about "help"). As far as I know she sung all the notes (i.e. she didn't need auto-tune to hit the notes).

Yes, they've clearly filtered the singing in some way - but I believe it is for effect rather than correction of tuning or to extend vocal range, etc.
