With a Mac, some relatively inexpensive software, Sam Tsui and his buddy Kurt Schneider seem to have completely bypassed agents, record labels, cheesy talent shows and are legitimate recording artists in their own right. http://itunes.apple.com/us/artist/sam-tsui/id352105098

Shit, if you're sitting on your ass, blaming the man for your failures, take a look at these 22 year olds, who are apparently filming a movie right now (College Musical, a Highschool Musical parody). No one can keep you down in this Internet age, if you have what it takes, you'll shine. It's never been easier to be heard, start a company, make stuff etc.

That's the spirit! Well made music, awesomely synched and well executed. Not my style but pop enough to, with a little effort, go very, very far. And that piano/synth was to die for, that gave me goosebumps!

 

[Chern Ann]

Original version, for a quick comparison.

 

[supervike]

That's pretty cool, and a ton better than the Nelly version.

 

[Torn blue sky]

Yeah, I agree, far better than the original. I'm not familiar with pop so it sounded like some middle of the road generic radio background noise to me. Nice to see they not only polish a really nice production effort, but outdo a well known performing artist with their own song. Kudos to them for it, hope they go far. They deserve it.

As a web developer I actually get annoyed/depressed about most of the pointless crap the internet is used for. It's arguably the greatest human creation ever, yet for some reason people just want to use it for trolling others and putting down anyone that has achieved. Oh and cat pictures.

The internet should be about empowerment, and I think these guys embody that perfectly!

To me it sounds like you've got an excellent grasp of Pop music! :rotfl:

Lets start an interwebz band, Chrome. We could be HUGE! The next comedy relief band at any rate.

I've even got a band name for us! "The Monkeytailz!"

How are we going to inspire goffs with a name like that?!

With a name like that we can inspire absolutely ANYTHING. Besides, the goffs are simple, all we need to do is tint every piece of clothing black and they're ours!

Hmnn fair point, but then how do we keep the emos out? Man, being this successful is hard work.

Tell me bout it!

 

[Torn blue sky]

I would man, but i'm trying to conserve all effort for our virtual tour dates.

I think we can let the emo's root themselves out, they'll cry for a month or two, then grow up or commit collective suicide or something.

With a big stick...

With nails in...

Fine response. Damn fine.
