  • Very very nice!!

  • Dear God... I thought Auto Tune the news was at the utmost levels of awesomeness that could be comprehended. You've taken it to a whole diferent level with the Shamisen! You've increased the awesome! Multiplied it. Magnified it. Enhanced it.

    Cor Blimey Mate...

  • wow, saw your stuff in ATTN#11 but this is amazing. the improvisational bits really add an extra layer of complexity to this great tune!

  • wow, saw your stuff in ATTN#11 but this is amazing. the improvisational bits really add an extra layer of complexity to this great tune!

  • How long does it take you to learn a song? You must have a lot of free time. Have you tried electric guitar? You'd be pretty awesome I reckon.

  • Oh yay! I'm glad you did this one too! This is my favourite auto-tune! Keep it ^_^

  • You just got yourself a new subscriber,dude. awesome work! :]

  • Amazing, made my evening, what a hero!

  • Christy Penny is starting to think you're a figment of my imagination. It's time for a Seattle trip..... Unless you are a figment of my imagination.  In which case, postpone all appointments and agree to your beneficiaries! It's time for several things to be over with and once again, forever, the agreement between opposing parties to make fantasies again.

  • Amazing

  • LOL! Nice!

  • This was the first episode of ATTN that I saw (in class in fact) that got me hooked on the series. It was an intro to communications class and our teacher showed this episode of ATTN demonstrating how issues can get lost in rhetoric.

  • awesome dude!

    i love all of theese did you do 7?

  • Great work.

  • thats my my fav too now you have to learn ATTN 10 >: )

  • Agreed, this guy should be AT LEAST as popular as Auto-tune the news itself.

  • how does this video not have OVER 9000 views?

  • @arashi86 it probably has on his own channel... He has played for some of their songs aswell

  • @arashi86 watch Pure Poppycock and you'll see him in their musicvideo

  • @arashi86 Here! Now it has over 9000! ;D

  • HELL NOOOOOOO! Pretty nice dude. Nice rendition. Keep doing what you do.

  • Brilliant. Can't wait for number 10 XP

  • How about auto-tuning your shamisen renditions? I don't mean to suggest your playing is out of tune, but it would be rather fitting.

  • Where did you buy a Shamisen?

  • Hell No!!!! How about hell yes!!!

  • i have small hands , can i play that instument????

  • this dude is the man

  • OMG nice. Favorite auto-tune + awesome playing = owned

  • すごいね! I love ATTN, and here you are making it even more awesome. 三味線はアメリカで勉強したんですか?または、日本で住んでいま­したか? ホントウにすごい!

  • this is amazing

  • :O

    *spasm*

  • Pretty sick, dude...

    I mean... SHAWTAY!

  • Man this one blew my mind than the last video of yours I watched.

    Daaaamn shawty

  • Disregard last comment, just read your info. But that was an ice scapper, right?

  • BTW, what the hell are you playing?

  • Sweet Jesus, that's awesome, Mike!

  • Fantastic!

  • That is amazing :D

  • If they don't put you in ATTN #10, I'll be disappointed.

  • Yes! Thanks for sending it to me!

  • Nice job. And kudos for not playing over the best part of the song. Sen. Junkie Einstein is a legend.

  • Damn man that was quality!

  • In addition to your amazing skill on the instrument, by playing the single note melodies you feature the insanely brilliant melodies and phrasing of the G-bros. thanks, man!

  • well done :)

  • holy shit this is amazing

  • BEAUTIFUL, love how you sing along sometimes

  • Respect man. You are the best !

  • Respect , brother !

  • I love you :P

  • dude Props very entertaining haha you guys should do a duet shiit they could do acoustic tune the the news haha 7/5

  • I am very pleased with your decision to harmonize the poker game/Sarah Palin portion. I think that that is probably the best (intentionally or not) musical phrasing of any auto-tune portion and I think you did it far more justice doing what you did then if you were to do each note. Bravo.

  • This is also my favourite auto-tune the news. You did an absolutely incredible job, as usual. What was the hardest bit to learn? Also, for those who have not seen it, Melody Sheep's cover is also fantastic.

  • awsome

  • that solo starting from 1:29 was sooooo epic!!!

    cool ass foreign instruments ftw

  • 1:35 off the hook

  • crack monkey timing over sarah palin bro... bad ass

  • X3 That's my favorite one and you did an awesome job. You're just mad cool beans, dear friend.

  • Loved it!

  • Quality stuff!!

  • This is amazing :D

  • AWEEEEESOOOOOOME!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • That was awesome you freaking nerd you. lol

  • If my ears were a snake and this video were a mongoose, I would never be aloud to hear again.

  • awesome :)

  • Even If I COULD play an instrument, I wouldn't play over that part either! lol

  • dude, this was freaking awesome. I was not prepared for the level of awesome this attained. I've been making Auto Tune ringtones for myself, and now I think I have to make one from this.

  • TOTAL Nerd, zomg. Well done, sir! :)

  • haha i bet autotune is even more stuck in your head than it is in mine.

    this is sweet, how long did it take you to prepare? fantastic.

  • Awesome!

  • My face cannot abide this nuclear blast of epic succeed

  • Holy crap, I admire your dedication to mastering this. Well played, sir. Well played indeed.

    (oh, and ATTN #6 is my fave too ;))

  • MAD. SKILLZ. Fretless, so so impressive the intonation was amazing

  • Absolutely phenomenal. You and the Greg Bros. should collaborate on an Autotune.

  • Maybe after I learn ALL of them, they'll give me a call, haha. Probabaly not, though:). Thanks for the comment!

  • gnumusic: yes; they even posted a comment.

  • i thank whoever shared this with me.

    RIGHT ON.

  • Wtf man?? Are you me? I'm a bit confused here.

    "It's unconstitutional to take away my god given pharmaceuticals. "

    That's the sickest part in the whole vid. Coolest little riff and awesome how he spits out the pills. Ok this is the last comment!

  • Haha. Thanks, man!

  • Mikepenny, this is amazing! Thanks for sharing. This has always been my fave auto tune the news BY FAR. The newest one with kanye and the charlie bit me kids is pretty damn good too but nothing beats good ol' #6.

    Awesome, and I mean awesome, cover man!

  • wow, dude. this/you are crazy/awesome! thanks! [have the Gregory bros. seen this? they should!] thanks for posting!

  • ok pretty awesome haha
