"You Play To Win The Game"
In honor of the start of the NFL Playoffs, I present to you a remix from DJ Steve Porter who is no stranger to viral video having previously created "press hop." Remember you play to win the game!
Awesome sauce or epic fail?

I lost the game reading that title...
:D i love autotune :)
As much as I'm completely sick of autotune stuff, that was pretty good. Love remixing stuff.
this incorporates 2 things i loathe:
1. remixes
2. auto tune
FTW!!
@OCDrules@xanga - I lost the game after reading your post. And when I read the title. FML.
The Game (!!!!) aside, here's my thoughts.
------
It's a cool video, but to be totally honest, this is an example of why I hate rap and pop so much.
It proves just how easy it is turn something that wasn't even a song in the first place (NORMAL speaking) and turn it into "singing." It makes you wonder just how shitty half of the singers who use autotune are, when even normal speaking can be turned into a "song" of sorts.
And I'm not talking about the generic, computer edited beat behind it. I'm talking about the function of Auto-Tune taking the skill of singing out of singing. Now anyone with a pretty face is practically guaranteed to sell albums. Most pop stars these days simply expect to have their voice processed, and Auto-Tune is so powerful, that as this video demonstrates, normal speaking CAN be turned into listenable music. And even still, regardless of how much it discredits the honest-to-god talent of my favorite singers such as my favorite, Tarja Turunen (ex-Nightwish), I bet there's people even willing to buy a novelty track like this for the "low low price" of ninety nine cents on iTunes.
Cool song, but it proves to me that Auto-Tune should be abolished - not that I didn't think it before, but this is the first time I've seen this specific kind of video.
this was pretty sweet!
fucking yes.
Pretty awesome!!
@trynstopme@xanga - Amen. Ain't it the truth? Same thing I've been saying for years.
awesome, pure awesome
