Winston Churchill (auto tuned!)

There has been a lot of discussion about the use of "auto tune" technology on many pop records. It started off as a method for correcting the odd vocal slip up, but then started to appear as a vocal effect in it's own right (on Cher's 1998 recording of "Believe"). There has been much discussion lately about it's overuse by less talented artists, however, I really like the effect that schmoyoho has produced by re-mixing famous speeches and even news items. Check out the videos on YouTube.
