I have to say the news hasn’t been good lately. In fact, it’s been so bad that only one thing can help. That thing is Auto-Tune<\/b>.<\/p>\n
Auto-Tune is software that can correct anyone’s singing voice to give it perfect pitch<\/span>. Music producers use it on a large percentage of pop and especially R&B singers, many of whom would seem rather untalented without it. You can tune<\/span> someone’s voice like you would tune a piano, and then synchronize it with any beat<\/span>. All that’s missing is meaningful content.<\/p>\n Enter the Gregory Brothers<\/b>, the musical geniuses behind the Obama Girl<\/a> videos. Recognizing that Auto-Tune works even on spoken voices, they’ve taken news clips and made songs out of them. Watched back-to-back<\/span>, the 13 videos of Auto-Tune the News<\/i><\/a><\/b> form an hour-long opera with an actual<\/span> story arc<\/span>. It’s strangely fascinating because it’s relevant and based on quirky<\/span> things people have actually said in the last two years \u2014 about climate change, Sarah Palin<\/b>, and Michael Jackson<\/b>.<\/p>\n
