Hilarious Video—Autotune VS Real Vocals—LOL ComediHa!


There might be a few people in the world who aren't yet aware that a LOT of the music we hear today has vocals that have been adjusted using Autotune—software that corrects slight (or major) imperfections in a singer's pitch—resulting in a performance that sounds MUCH better than the original.

Cher's conspicuous use of Autotune for her 1998 hit song, Believe—was the first time that many became aware of the technology.

Since then, many artists purposely choose to "hide" that they more subtlety use Autotune on their recordings and live performances—preferring to let their audience believe that what they are hearing is a skilled, pitch-perfect vocal—rather than an enhanced digital manipulation.

Screen Grab From The Video Below

With that mind, today's post features a HILARIOUS video from the Canadian comedy series, LOL ComediHa!, where they parody auto-tune being taken to an extreme—showing a sound engineer frantically working the control board to "fix" a singer's stunningly bad vocal.

It's an obviously inaccurate portrayal of how Autotune works—but it is still pretty funny!

Check it out and see if you don't agree!





BTW—comedian Sylvie Moreau is the woman shown lip-syncing to a track sung by Canadian singer Nancy Forti, who is actually a pretty decent vocalist:

Here's a bonus video—taking a more accurate look at how Autotune works:

Video: Angry Pedestrian Gets Instant Pay-Back


A Screen Capture From The Video Below: An Angry Pedestrian Just Before Instant "Reward."
A Screen Capture From The Video Below: An Angry Pedestrian Just Before Instant "Reward."

 Hi!

Cultures all over the world have terms and words for instantly getting paid-back for something you've done wrong.

Some call it "karma"—some say "what goes around comes around"—and the Bible calls it "reaping what we sow."

Sometimes it seems so delayed though—and it can be frustrating to watch someone who deserves a big pay-back—to seemingly get away unscathed.

Perhaps that's why watching the video posted below is so enjoyable to me.

In the video you see a very ANGRY Australian pedestrian crossing at an intersection getting an instant, much deserved "reward" for his angry behavior.

Enjoy!
