SXSW 2011: "Auto Tune the News" The Gregory Brothers perform Winning

[MrMarkusTribee]

It would have helped if sarahs mic was actually audible

[zachandthemachines]

The mixing is SO bad... as is the idea that this could ever work live. Sorry dudes.

[anabv2]

Bring out the T-pain autotune mics! :)

[MoDHyPe]

@anabv2 Dude, they want to sing with a normal voice.. and thats what everyone else wants to hear!!

[wigwambamtube]

Seriously, I love them to bits, but this was.. not a very #winning performance... :/

[Queenero2011]

@Gotred Everything works so much better live. 

[lasjd11]

WINNING !

[Gotred]

Just doesn't seem to work live..

[Straightoutoflund]

kick ass! / SWE

[sunwolfyvan]

sarah is a cutie..and michaels voice is awesome..

[keyofdavid888]

That mic is WIN

[serendipitydew]

My favorite song of 2011! EVERY version is EPIC WINNING!

[lildizzy669]

simon cowell where are you now??

[ExplosPlankton]

I wish they sang the line "Im bi-winning' in the high pitch of the auto tune version. Overall, sounded like karaoke night -_-

[Treyworld]

Michael looks like he was banging 7 gram rocks! :D

[abovebiscuitcrumbs]

they're so into it as if they were singing something so deep, when in reality they're singing about WINNING. hahaha

[volswagn]

This could have been so kick ass if it had just been mixed properly.

[Idjiii]

I like Michael's voice!

[RandomChris46]

I like this!

[KaTieZCrAZyCasTZ]

They should just stick to autotuning their voices....

[ljelley1]

I love Sarah!

[TheChumb4]

why is sarahs voice sound distant? bad mixing...

[purpleem14]

Eppppiiicccc

[skintrance94]

@purpleem14 Winning!

[markty01]

I start every day with this song.. then have a couple shots of tiger blood around noon.. by evening - epic winning

[penetreramera]

Would someone plese shut the girl up? She is definitely not a winner.

[piticot004]

the dislikers are the loosers in the world

[Unor1ginal]

@piticot004 its "loser"

[piticot004]

@Unor1ginal loosers or loser its the same thing about LOOOOSING!!!

[Unor1ginal]

@piticot004 well, you are losing for improper grammar. (notice how i spelled "losing" correctly.)

[piticot004]

@Unor1ginal MAN I KNOW ITS LOSER....BUT I PUT MY ACCENT ON THE LETTER O SO THATS WHY LOOSERS!!!I KNOW ITS LOSER!!!

[Unor1ginal]

@piticot004 god, i hate stupid people

[piticot004]

@Unor1ginal man liten to this idiotic boy

the word LOL,you know it,you heard it,you know how to write it.At somepoint saying simple LOL its nothing,if you are verry amazed you say LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!!!!

like here

the word LOSER,for one person its LOSER,for more then one person is LOSERS,thats why i say LOOOOOOSERS!!! but why should i talk to you?you dont get it,so go and lose elsewhere,you are not an epic winner

[Unor1ginal]

@piticot004 its "listen" and going LOOOOOOOOOOOL doesn't work because its just like saying laugh out out out out out out out out out out loud. In addition, if you are trying to yell loser, you would have to have multiple l's or e's. Try saying it out loud. LOOOOOOOOSER. it doesn't sound as good as if it was LLOOOSSEERR because that is more carried out. And, I do get it, you are just the one that has super shitty grammar.

P.S. There is supposed to be a space after periods and commas.

[Unor1ginal]

@piticot004 its entertaining how i give you a paragraph telling u to fix your grammar but, you take none of my advice, and rage. MISSION ACCOMPLISHED.

[martinsbigmouth]

think i prefer this to the orginal xD

[JemboyMedia]

American Idol Made A Mistake

[dughmo]

they kinda sound bad live

[velenvskaelhas]

it looks like they're doing karaoke

[TehDoug]

i wish you'd do more live performences <333

[Harperlarp]

This might be really obvious but they're not as good without their auto tune lol.

[kodred996]

This is for all the winners in the world and also the ladies!

HAHAHAH

[CiaranDUK]

O_O What. Was. This... ?

[Fede17]

@CiaranDUK Where were you for the past year?

[1337mastermind]

what happend to playback? Dont understand you guys, is this good? really? wow standards are getting lower and lower now a days :(

[funkmastafog]

everyone elses mic's shoulda been turned up.

[ragnaroksama]

tabs plz?

[stevegonsalveslvr]

I loved it. <3 You guys. FAN FOREVER!!!! :D ^-^

[kirbyis4ever]

Not as good when live...

BUT with the proper recording studio, YOU CAN SELL THIS.

[isaisabobisa]

Sarah's lovely



[Endead12345]

I think they deserved a bigger applause at the end.

[kikijean17]

I agree with Jessehond. Love them but this isnt that great....

[Jessehond]

i am a huge fan but this doesnt sound really good but still WINNING

[filecabinet33]

Apparently in an interview, Michael said, and I quote, " My brothers and Sarah are more funny than I am." am I the only one who thinks Michael is the most hilarious one in the group?? ;)

[Trajjiik1]

@filecabinet33 HOWEVER, of all their youtube material, you dont know how much Evan and Andrew contribute to the writing and idea spawning. If he really throws that out there it probably has at least a degree of truth to it.

[filecabinet33]

@Trajjiik1

Well, I guess so... I suppose, I more or less meant when they are doing interviews and such.. I don't even know why I posted that on this video:)

[coppertoe1215]

he sounds like chrisopher walkens at the begining

[starkidsstudios]

Sarah would be better as news lady just talking

[hmmg13]

Oh my god.. I love Michael <3 <3

[ExPANDABLEAIRSOFT]

IF SARAH USED A FULLER VOICE WHEN SHE WAS SINGING AS THE NEWS LADY THE SONG WOULD BE 10X BETTER

[DeChurcher]

just turn her mic louder xD

[ExPANDABLEAIRSOFT]

@DeChurcher you dont get what im saying

[kristbjorg999]

@ExPANDABLEAIRSOFT

totally agree with, like she did at a concert in Oakland, that was awesome

[chewondoggy]

@ExPANDABLEAIRSOFT if you listen at 1:42 you can tell she is using a fuller voice, but they have her turned down because she's singing harmony

[HeiniKraetzer]

Ouh want to have an 4 minute Studio version ^^

[extremedavo1979]

The backup singing is terrible, drop it and it would be awesome.

[AdventRedXIII]

This is terrible but I love it

[jfarlo]

I watched this hoping for a live version of Mike's awesome cover. Instead I found a loud ugly mess.

[XenintheTerminator]

Evan looks adorable in that suit. Same with Michael. xD

[CrimsonSlayer7]

0:39 i guess... he just jizzed in pants....

[cybersethxp]

Not bad, but loses a lot of its flavour without the autotune. They need to take a hardware auto-tuner or something similar with them on tour to process their vocals live.

[distorm]

i fucking love schmoyoho, however evan and sarah ruin it a lot of the time by acting like they're hilarious, when they're not.

michael however...

[petraquilitz]

yea, live show needs some work, less volume pressure, more showtime entertainment. Michael putting on sunglasses for the middle section, maybe that's all it needs. The material and concepts are all there, just not coming across live. But overall, man these guys are incredible.

[BeeDotSix]

these guys are great, need to work on the live act though.

[mongobobo]

Need that auto-tune. 

[clearair]

camera work fail

[Omertahun]

Charlie sings better with 7 gram rocks

[mastigoz]

awesome, good quality video, and artist XD.

[Daisy17314]

oh my gosh i can't help it! Michael you are so sexy!

[BPzeBanshee]

LOL Texas country accent. Good for a renactment-from-scratch work of an autotuned song.

[johnmusk]

It's not easy to perform a song that's been heavily produced in the studio unless you are ELO or the Beach Boys or something. Would have liked to hear a re-worked acoustic-folk version sung by Andrew.

[Snowfang15]

They were off key and flat

[Snowfang15]

They need some Auto tuning

[nezoth]

It's not that's a bad song... it could have been a lot better. Gets boring pretty fast. Get michael out of the main vocalist and give sara more lyrics.

[knucklescapricorn31]

9 people obviously aren't winning

[Snowfang15]

They should have autotuned the mics...



[BacchusFA]

You should of kept the falsetto dude.

[Italktopopsicles]

Whoa, what's with Evan's mic not being turned up enough? You can't really hear him.

[RandomChris46]

@Italktopopsicles He has the keytar. Usually three of them sing and one plays the keytar most of the time. But I do agree with you I was disappointed...

[mbson]

EPIC WINNING!

[jaaaaaaawesomestwin]

this is da shit y'all- I crush on everybody <3 it- where da chords at?

[jaaaaaaawesomestwin]

this is da shit y'all- I crush on everybody <3 it

[misinglink15]

this is a good version cause its gotta a little rock in it...and the schomoyoho people actually have talent...ya its not autotuned but at least its different

[MsFlipStix]

@misinglink15 I know why was he rejected (Michael) from american idol?

[gmorr12345]

@misinglink15 every person naturally sings off key

[ErictheACKACKTOR]

So good!

[krunsj]

Allthough I love the song and listen too it a bit too much. I have to admit that its just when Charlie Sheen is singing it.

This here, sounds like a dead seagull trying to talk with a magic leprechaun.. In other words; Crap.

Try again live, with autotune.

[littlemisswelder]

This is not helping my stupid crush on Michael. Awww.

[YujoNiimura]

@littlemisswelder Understandable. He's epic winning. <3

[littlemisswelder]

@YujoNiimura

All hail the hot nerds.  Just my type ;)

[Chrissemann]

@littlemisswelder Nor mine on Sarah :(

[Thundero13]

@littlemisswelder

You sure as hell ain't the only one, he's adorable <:3

[knucklescapricorn31]

@littlemisswelder

If Michael is the incredibly cute nerdy kid who usually wears glasses, you certainly aren't alone :3

[Herunati]

@littlemisswelder aaw cute

[hautecouturexix]

@littlemisswelder haha yes total stupid crush here too...

[SpaZaA]

Epic WINNING.

[hik444]

it's good but i wanted to see the perform a little bit more

[HisLostFriend]

I WANT TO DOWNLOAD THIS

[theecstaticman91]

Nice! but michael's cover of winning was better in my opinion...^^

[MegaRandomPictures]

@theecstaticman91 i aggree

[brandon5429111]

WINNING

[jam870]

Love these guys!

[Charriii5]

It's just odd to hear them live, since it's obviously not the same. But Winning otherwise.

[12yroldutubehatr]

but also this video is good but i like the regular auto tuned version better

[12yroldutubehatr]

YES



[12yroldutubehatr]
