  • Actually , this video tricks you. Microsoft uses real voice with the real singer for the campaign. hahaha.

  • beautiful melody

  • StarrraRaRARARAra

  • way to go microsoft, now nobody will ever even bother to learn how to play music. Way to fuckin go.

  • @JeremiahJenkems

    I don't think you'll have to worry about that.

  • so kewl.

  • I just died a little inside

  • So lame, I think a small part of me just had a spasm.

  • Fake tan much?

  • I could be, a StaArararArararaa

    That was an awfully air gasping "Star"

  • if you get a +90 score you get a email from sony BMG, lol

  • Comment removed

  • She makes coffee at a BAR? No wonder she is not a star. She won't be getting any tips being that retarded.

  • i'd eat her out.

    i bet she's moans good.

  • M$ Suxx, Linux FTW

    Yeah, I know im trollin'

  • Let's see what happens if the vocals aren't auto-tuned first.

  • I'll make her good cup of coffee the morning after.

  • you can make better shit on a keyboard at beginner lvl lmfaooo

  • 0:39  definitely Melodyne :D

  • I think the only way that wasn't Melodyne is if the doll singing it is actually a robot. lol

  • She hosts the Windows 7 demo.

  • Cute girl/woman with a great voice.

    If she sings professionally I would like to listen to songs by her band.  She sounds a little like iiO's vocalist.

  • damn why can't i escape this video?

  • these cups of coffee... ARE MAKING ME THIRSTY!!!

  • Comment removed

  • Is auto-tune included?

  • Did you guy notice she's in the original video too?

  • i noticed

  • for some reason i have played this over 5 times now

  • so funny. i watched it like 20 times now. its allways worth a look if you want something really crazy to laugh at. ..

  • she should lessons from theo tams

  • She ended on a half cadence.

  • Fail.

  • her voice sounds like it has been changed by a melodyne-vocoder but i like her singing.

  • I'd hit it

  • this is a really great product! excellent work guys!

  • FFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

  • she's got the best voice out of all the actors so far. songsmith still blows

  • BUT INSIDE I DREAM THAT I COULD BE A STAR

  • You don't have to come up with new Microsoft jokes... Microsoft do it themselves!

  • BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

  • RAAAAAAAAAAAGE

  • Ughh....so....bad... It seems like a fine premise I suppose. It's like they're trying to oversimplify songwriting. O_o'

  • the girls voice is preety calming...

  • "I thought a needed just a song/but now I'm sucking dong/ songsmith ruined my chances at that part"

  • even the music in their ad sux...can microsoft stick to business apps and not try to dabble in the arts...it's embarrassing- who thought of this crap anyway?

  • Apple, when they started to cut into Microsoft's market share.

  • 2girls1cup ahah

  • I'd hit that

  • Just Coming!!

  • And if that doesn't work,there's always StripSmith (tm).

  • DUUDDEE IM GONNA SELL ALL MY THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS WORTH OF MUSIC EQUIPMENT FOR THIS OHHH YEAAA ...... then ill kill myself

  • WHERE'S THE RESOLUTION!?

  • shitsmith?

  • shit

  • Bwaaa-hahahahahahaaa! Bitch needs to spend some time away from the tanning bed, and please let's kill Antares Autotune for good.

  • I think this is how Mike Skinner made his last album.

  • Just coming!

    God I cringe at all these ads.

  • STEPHEN!

  • Comment removed

  • Just coming!

  • JUST COMING!!!

  • What a waste. 15 seconds of dead space on a one-minute video.  Shocking!

  • She looks like Obama Girl. LOL! Nice voice!

  • You would have to pay me to get me to install this program on my computer, and then you would have to pay me even more money to use it. And then you'd have to pay me again to stop me from immediately deleting it.

  • Microsoft... the Greatest thing to happen to Apple.

  • good job microsoft, for fucking with people once again!

    after seeing this ad i am 100% sure my next computer will be a mac.

  • Geez its only 30 dollars, what are you homeless or something?

  • 30 dollars for that?

    I wouldn't pay even 5.

    Maybe 1, or it they put some cd's in cereal boxes like prizes I might consider buying that cereal.

  • if someone sold u a piece of sh*t for 30$ u`d buy it?

  • porn star more like

  • Does William Hung have a copy of this??

  • Like a trip to hell...the horrors!!!

  • I downloaded this to try it out, and it is interesting in that it does a very good job of detecting the proper key. I guess people could use this as a sketchbook type of thing, because there's no way in hell you could ever make an actual demo with it. The song "styles" are from PG Music, which makes the equally cheesy Band in a Box software. It turns any song, even a song that is supposed to be heavy metal, into awful 1940s polka.

  • Dear lord...

  • we've reviewed songsmith, and done our own trial of it singing the ting tings on our channel!!

  • It's too bad Wesley Willis isn't around to see this.

  • Haha, this is awful!

  • It has begun. Millions and millions of retards who think they can sing because of this shitty gimmick software. Prepare yourselves.

  • My thoughts exactly.

  • I'm getting a better mic :)

  • no self-respecting person would ever purchase or use this software seriously

  • She can make my cup of coffee any day.

  • shes hot at least

  • learn how to play a fucking instrument, lazy bastards! this sort of thing will always be and sound crappy!

  • yo dis song sux dix, fuk microsoft bsd 4 lyfe

  • no wonder everyone is buying a mac

  • I have GarageBand. Can GarageBand do this, I wonder? If so, is it better, and how so?

  • Get that part?? Are you joking the only thing that songsmith will do for you is get you riticuled

  • riticuled

  • "everyone has a song inside"?

    No, everyone has crap inside and i guess some people poo out their mouth. And now those people make poo in song!

  • you're kidding right??? this is neither a spoof or from 1987? THIS is what Microsoft is spending it's $ developing??? WINDOWS you fools!!! Fix WINDOWS!!! For the love of GOD PLEASE FIX WINDOWS!!! And for the love of the rest of us PLEASE DON'T RELEASE THIS!!!

  • What is critically broken about Windows? It's not like it's the same team working on both products.

  • fuck you microsoft!

  • Oh, yeah... People love to just randomly make up new songs from scratch and sing them. Yeah. That sounds like almost everyone I know! And inventing lyrics on the fly is SO EASY!!1!

  • well you don't have to "invent" on the fly :) you can "write them beforehand". it'll still work.

  • Yeah sorry girl, you're not going to be a star. Internet legend maybe, but not a star.

  • In yet another pale immitation of an Apple Product (Garage band, maybe?), Microsoft corners the market on things nobody wants. I suppose that this MIGHT appeal to the Karyoke crowd, but then again, people aren't usually drunk in a crowd when they make a decision to buy some software. I can see a script for a "Napoleon Dynomite" sequel with this software playing a major role.....wow...

  • So songsmith purposely creates a crappy 1995 MIDI piano-sounding song to go along with a song that the beautiful and talented woman already wrote? Awesome! Tens of people will buy this.

  • Everyday i roll a doobie and la la lee la la..

  • If they're trying to make me never make music with Garageband or any other computer program, then they succeeded.

  • what

    a bad

    ad.

    theres a new song for ya.

  • The chick is hot.

  • You are this generation's next profound thinker; a real innovator and mover of ideas.

  • I am going to test that program too... The ad is crappy, but the soft sounds interesting.

    It obviously does not replace real singers. It just doesnt sound the same.

    BUT, I will probably have fun making some music. OR I can make songs for my loved one... LOL

  • Did she win any Oscars for her star acting performance in a Songsmith commercial?

  • lol

  • this is horrible please make it stop

  • though i have to say she has a decent voice, she just needs to put it to use

  • why the fuck does she make such wierd faces and move her head like that?

  • no.

  • Interesting her voice reminded me some of Felicia Day in Dr Horrible

  • same here

  • songsmith is actually pretty fun. download the demo just to play around with, it's free.

  • #I'd like to sing a song about,

    How Microsoft are s--t.

    I'd sing about where the s--tness ends,

    but there's no end to it.#

  • Too bad you have no reason to hate Microsoft.

  • after reading all these comments - I refer back to my earlier comment, "is this a joke?"

  • all these songs sound alike, i have a mac so i can't download it, but it seems like with garageband there are muck more choices/creative things to do with it. if anyone has songsmith plz correct me if i am wrong.

  • you are wrong.

  • I have a mac and garageband (and songsmith did a giant piss poor job in trying to imitate garageband), but garageband not only has more choices and there is more creativity, but it doesnt sound like they took the cound files directly from a casio keyboard from 1985. At least Apple has pride. I just cant imagine Ballmer seeing these commercials and saying: YES! That is marketing genius! Quick, get that out and circulating as fast as possible! I want people to know that that was my company!

  • Hi vicgalli,

    Like I said above, I have GarageBand, but have not used it yet. I wonder if GarageBand can do this also. If so, I would appreciate some feedback on it. Thanks.

  • Garageband can do everything Songsmith can and More. Except in garageband you can pick the background music yourself which i think is better.

  • No opinion about Garageband (not familiar), but does it also find a chord progression to match a melody, that you come up with? I was surprised to see how badly Yamaha's XGWorks does that. I mean it's useless! ;-)

    (Songsmith seems to manage somehow)

  • I'm pretty sure it does, I haven't used Garageband enough to know for sure.

  • Note that you can choose the style yourself in Songsmith, that's up to you: what Songsmith does is pick the chords that match your melody. Garageband is an awesome program and does many things but does not do that.

  • If this could export midi i know artists would use it alooot more. =)

  • You *can* export MIDI - just go to the export song dialog.

  • Thats cute.

    Tried to install it, i needed SP2 lol fail

  • steve jobs is dying because of fags like u.

  • that made me laff

    kudos! ;-)

  • Whats the name of the chick?! Give her her own YT channel and maybe she can get a real job instead of being a corporate shill for microsuck. I'm serious, what's her name?

  • Is it hard to type with Steve Jobs' penis shoved down your throat?

  • El oh el. You're hilarious(ly ignorant). Don't own, and will never buy, an iMac, iPhone, iFridge or whatever piece of junk the appleheads come up with next christmas season. It's cute that you randomly think of Steve Jobs' peen though. Good luck with that.

  • pssshhhh, have fun with your zune

  • Don't own a zune either, nice try!

    Keep em coming boys, who knew this video would bring the lulz for so long?!

  • i liked teh voice...

    but the music in the background was annoying XD

  • idiotic XD if you sing that well at singing, no need for Microshit XD

  • after american idol we present you american songsmith

  • it can only get better ;)

  • from the vicarious to the virtual.

  • is this a joke?

  • I'd like to know to.

  • So that is how high school musical came to be.

    I wonder how long Microsoft can continue to deliver this kind of quality without going down.

    Maybe they should exclusively produce game consoles, that is where i think they do some things right.

  • hahaha

    High school musical. nice

  • hey that was too funny when you guys did that... what made you guys wanna do something like that haha ... well you made me luahg hahaha lol

  • wtf were they thinking.

  • Her voice is nice, the midi in the background is crap, makes the song worse.

  • It might be a fun idea but what if you can't sing? Also I think that people who actually can sing in tune can write their own music as well. Furthermore these ads are REALLY lame to the point were they get laughable. If I were Microsoft I would fire the people responsible for this garbage.

  • i think it's more the other way around. they use their research department to get publicity. i'm sure the guys who worked on the original technology must feel like dancing monkeys on a fair.

  • Im' not shure about it, but, isn't the guy that plays Lisa's (Lisa... any ringbells besides the MacBook Pro she uses?:P) dad actually one of the developers from this ridiculous app? At least that's what one of the videos, the one where he does a demostration, makes me think

  • Happy, and Jazzy eh? So yeah, music can be described with other adjectives too. Are you planning on adding other ones in future versions? I might consider getting it then!

    Like how about a $50 dollar upgrade for an Angry slider!

  • LOL!  That was funny.

  • so this is microsoft research. what a bunch of dorks.

  • Kanye West will use this on his next CD I heard

  • this might be an awesome piece of technology, but thanks for all the retarded youtube videos that will show up because of this. :(

  • so funny comment. lmao. :D

  • she's too hot. i must have her and her vocal chords.

  • fntasctic!

  • the music songsmith makes is about as lame as the background music in cheap porn flicks.

  • It's not a fake, folks, that's her real voice (she's an awesome singer!) with no auto-tune cleanup. Songsmith came up with the chords - you can actually download the .songsmith file for this song from our site and try it for yourself!

  • So why was she cut from the main ad? She really is a good singer.

  • We decided that this clip was so good (yes, she's a greeeeaaaat singer) that it should circulate on its own, and that this would make the perfect 1-minute promo clip.

  • If this wasn't fake, it could quite possibly the worst idea since the square wheel!

    LOL nice one!

  • Is Microsoft only hiring the mentally disabled now?

  • song smith doesnt have ultra auto tune so, forget it gal.

  • If only I had a song to describe just how wonderful her voice is...

  • Yes yes, the power of Auto-Tune.

  • oh you can be a star alright. in my pants!
