But Autotune can be used in creative and interesting ways.

James Blake anyone?

How about 1969? :O sounds like there's some in that... or something.

Either way, I don't think these days most artists are using it as creatively as they could... it's more of a tool to play it safe to make sure they both blend in with current music trends and don't exploit the flaws of their voices :s

"1969" uses a vocoder, not Auto-tune.

1969 definitely has a vocoder in it along with a couple pitch bends added to the lyrics (heard more clearly in the Although not a follower.. bit) to make it sound more warped and interesting. The pitch bends are what make it sound like it's being autotuned (because essentially, Autotune is just one big pitch bender anyway).

While this IS awful, take heart in that it marks the beginning of the end for this style of production. Nothing can survive this.

65 million views on that now. Sheesh. Pretty damn popular for something so universally hated.

I can actually stand this though, her voice (though obviously autotuned) is good and the production is actually pretty interesting.
