The second video is still their best one. Not only did the second video have funnier lines between the creators and the news personalities (Donkey Kong, cardiac arrest, etc...) but in the two new videos they are trying too hard to redo things that worked in the second video. And the songs aren't nearly as catchy as the one in the second video.

4 is up. Way too long. They should follow the model of 2 and do a short, but awesome video.

Already posted in post 134 of this thread.

#2 was lightning in a bottle

 

[HowardRoark]

4 just wasn't really good at all. It didn't hold my attention like the other 3.

They'll never top number 2 because it was fresh, and the music was spectacular.

 

[Monroeski]

Two things stick out about 4 that I don't like -

1. Too much of the people that make the videos, not enough of the news segments.
2. When they did have news segments, they were too heavily edited.

Still made me laugh, particularly the very first time the angry gorilla showed up, but overall a step down from the other 3.

New video up featuring JFK's inauguration speech. I like the simplicity of something like this more than the last two Autotune the News efforts.

Hmmm - I think #2 was the magnum opus....

 

[Double D]

In related news, I figured out how to auto tune my voice using garage band and my Rock Band mic. I've been annyoying the shit out of my wife for the past week. What's great is when my 14 month old son gets on the mic and it auto-tunes his baby talk.

 

[Ephemeris]

hahaha :lol

"Very thin ice"

 

[Ceres]

Hmmm - I think #2 was the magnum opus....

I agree. I think the main problem with the last two is that they're way over edited and that's why I like that the JFK speech doesn't feel like they've cut it apart in 5 second intervals and hit random like the last two.

 

[Sol..]

I didn't really like the jfk one

but that MLK one was beautiful.

 

[AndrewG009]

Awesome.

 

[Davidion]

I enjoy what they're doing, but it's entirely ironic how they're milking the sound for all it's worth to the point of practically draining all the original charm out of the implementation, much like the trend that their mocking. I'm beginning to wonder if it's all done inadvertently. :lol

 

[Judderman]

Auto-Tune the News #5: lettuce regulation. American blessings.

 

[Costanza]

Auto-Tune the News #5: lettuce regulation. American blessings.

this is the best one yet

 

[DY_nasty]

Auto-Tune the News #5: lettuce regulation. American blessings.

meh... 2 is still the best by far

 

[vas_a_morir]

this is the best one yet

That shit was TIGHT. Joe Biden is such a tool.

 

[MattKeil]

Don't understand the love for #2. 3 and 4 are vastly superior. And 5 is another winner. Fantastic Couric section.

 

[Zaptruder]

Auto-Tune the News #5: lettuce regulation. American blessings.

This one is pretty good. Up there with #2 (just that the novelty factor is wearing out). Still, if they keep up the quality like this, they would legitimately have a better album then a lot of commercial shit out there.

 

[Monroeski]

Don't know if it's as good as 2, but it's certainly a hell of a lot better than 4. That one was terrible.

 

[vas_a_morir]

That "God bless America" part is my favorite part, but the "Smoooke" part was also brilliant. They need to bring in somebody who can clean up their samples a bit.

 

[HowardRoark]

Yea, that one was awesome. :lol at smoking the lettuce. so 5 >>>> 4

 

[charlequin]

#5 is a definite return to form. More effective use of the news people, more comprehensible lyrics, no random Angry Gorilla breakdown section at the end. GJ guys!

OMG at the lettuce. :lol Double OMG at pimpin' Katie Couric.

 

[Tornado Condor]

#5 is my favorite.

 

[Jamesfrom818]

#5 is better but I liked it more when it was just the two guys.

 

[JCX]

5 is the best next to 2. The girl was funny for once "more produce/more problems"

 

[permutated]

Haha, funniest Youtube video I've ever seen hands down.

Thanks for sharing

 

[monchi-kun]

loved #4

 

[EvilDick34]

Holy hell, i have not laughed this hard at random postings of youtube clips in a long time. AT2 is still the king but holy shit was AT5 funny as hell.

 

[Rahxephon91]

5 was actually pretty good.

 

[UltimaPooh]

3 is my favorite.

 

[Zyzyxxz]

*claps*

And I thought youtube was done impressing me with user submitted videos.

 

[Costanza]

Auto-Tune the News #6: Michael Jackson. drugs. Palin.

the last one was better

 

[JCX]

I figured before I saw it that jackson and palin would be parts of it. Note enough pundits and politicians, too much of them just sainging.

2>5>3>6>4>1

 

[Valkyr Junkie]

This one was actually pretty good :lol

 

[Aaronology]

#6 was pretty amazing for the first half, but it kind of floundered during the Palin segment and afterwards.

 

[KTallguy]

I enjoyed this one :lol

 

[Iksenpets]

#6 is totally the best one yet. The Boehner HELL NO is amazing.

 

[mgviperman]

This one was pretty good. Loved that harmony at the end.

 

[EvilDick34]

#6 is totally the best one yet. The Boehner HELL NO is amazing.

I am in total agreement with this statement..the whole entire song with awesome! I really liked everything in this, especially boehners, Hell No, Hell No, Hell NoOOooOoOoO. And of course the whole michael jackson, Wake up, Wakeup Dead thing.

 

[Donos]

#6 is really good. One of the best so far. These guys are awesome. That must be a hell of work to cut this all.

 

[MarkusRJR]

Damn, #6 is the best one yet.

 

[Zaptruder]

They've actually done quite a few of these autotunes...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I0F4iXEzOqY&feature=related
Martin Luther King sings. Not bad, not bad at all.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vmcCzB8fwLo&feature=related
JFK backed by a band from the future.

Ahaha... he was one of the contestants on American Idol way back when...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-tIVQznX-pM&feature=related

They also worked with Obama girl and barelypolitical to put this one out...

[reggieandTFE]

Auto-Tune the News #6: Michael Jackson. drugs. Palin.

the last one was better

Haha, the Pelosi and Boehner parts were great with the back up vocals.

 

[charlequin]

Not as good as #5, but I honestly get #5 stuck in my head at the weirdest hours of the day all the time so I hardly expect them to meet that standard every time. This one's pretty funny, Boehner especially.

 

[Cloudy]

5 and 6 are amazing :lol

ps: Katie Couric is such a MILF

 

[aku:jiki]

Wow, #6 is the best song yet! Though not the funniest video, #2 is still king.

"Marijuanityprettyplease!" got me pretty good. :lol :lol

 

[methane47]

I figured before I saw it that jackson and palin would be parts of it. Note enough pundits and politicians, too much of them just sainging.

2>5>3>6>4>1

Wow.. did any body jump on their instrument of choice to try out this cord progression the instant they saw it?

I did.. its good but would sound better if its: 2 > 5 > 3 > 6 > 4 > 4m7 > 1

Also 5 is better than 2!!
edit: damn 6 was hott too!!

 

[DarkKyo]

I like number 6 a lot, especially when they are talking about Michael Jackson.

 

[vas_a_morir]

5 was better, actually probably my favorite. I liked 6 though.
