'Island (In-Studio)' Video - The Starting Line - AOL Music

[dolour]

Actually, if your in the business like I am we call it autotune. Pitch corrector is a name used by the failing new young bucks. Research autotune buddy.

[joeyspeziale]

lol i just read through like 8 pages of the same "its obv autotuned" comments. we get it n00bs, stop bitching.

[crissangel586]

its pitch corrector not autotune

[shadowLJ90]

Starting line are incredible.

Yes AOL, EDIT and MASTER these videos.

It is not auto-tune, and it wouldn't be a decision made by Kenny.

But yes, the audio has definitely been edited.

AUTO-TUNE is what our good squire T-Pain-ful-to-hear uses.

[andrewbareham]

Auto-tuned.

[TheMakerHimself]

i miss these guys

[ctr36096]

AOL autones all of these. its not Kenny's fault.

[hotfudgemonday12]

who is that other guy playing with kenny? definitely not in the starting line

[nakmuay727]

@hotfudgemonday12 i forget his name but he's a guitarist from the Almost.

[Potusistheway]

@hotfudgemonday12 Looks like its the guitarist from " The Almost"

[guitarromike]

Oh how I miss this band...

[cjudge90]

i think aol autotunes all of these videos.. not kenny's fault

[ApplePirateMedia]

without doubt there IS autotune on this, which is a shame because Kenny CAN sing

[Ooyo00]

I'm a huge fan of the starting line, and I like his live performances but you can definitely hear auto-tune here.

I don't say he wanted to, maybe he got forced to do so but there IS auto-tune here, listen to his acoustic "need to love" performance and you'll definitely hear the difference.

I love his lyrics, I love the studio versions, but he isn't really that much of a singer when he's doing acoustic.

Don't deny frantically that there is no auto-tuning here if you're a real fan.

[Xepp375]

i dont hear any autotune kiddos

[Whiteaura1]

Half of your favorite artists use Auto-tune to be famous, so shut it, and no he is not using auto tune in this performance, just deal with the fact this guy has an amazing voice and this song sounds beautiful when he sings it <3 .. Don't hate

[stopshootrepeat]

@Whiteaura1 there totally is auto tune here dude you can hear it

[ryanscottbennett]

You can hear the autotune when he goes for the high notes. Listen for a sort of electronic warble underneath his voice. That's the give away.

I don't think KV would really want to use autotune, it's against his ethics as a musician, but I don't doubt he was forced to. He sounded hella hoarse in the AOL sessions.

[granbergexperiment09]

the autotune is hardly noticeable I've seen kenny perform several times without autotune and he sounds pretty much flawless

[njdkidd1231]

@brandynleewood no, obviously there is autotune you dumbass bitch. you hear it pull his voice up to the note at 1:16? and 1:22? and in many other spots... its very common to have it for in studio performances. so no, i am not retarted.

[njdkidd1231]

haha the autotune is so obvious but i still love it

[JohnnyInfernus]

damn the acoustic is so much better than the original

[mp96sxy]

replay button i told u i was sorry for raping you

[ilikecows44]

1:50 - "waiting to long for a ship to come" such an awesome melody twist i get goosebumps every time

[Skarific088]

ISNT HE THE GUITARIST OF THE ALMOST?

[MorticonTibiaML]

he literally sounds like on the song not like those fake ass bands that sounds differently live

[pickzandstickz]

Guys, AOL sessions uses auto tune. Yes, Kenny is an amazing singer, but this is auto tuned. To the same caliber as some guy said he's been in a studio and can see this isn't auto tuned, i own a studio, and can say it is. Listen between 3:15 and 3:19. I'm not hating, just pointing it out.

[TheStidOfficial]

this song always gets stuck into my head then i start singing it to myself then people move away from me

[yoyoyo17941113]

anybody know what guitar the singer is playing?

[WilliamGeorgeB16]

@yoyoyo17941113 looks like a martin, not sure which model though

[v00d00rOckEt]

looks like he struggled a bit. very good nonetheless

[sugapie143]

definitlely one of my favorite songs from the starting line...i wish they got back together!

[jessygoupil]

@sugapie143 i heard they are in 2011

[sugapie143]

@jessygoupil really? i know that theyre doing a couple of shows..hope that they fully reunite and do an entire tour!

[Blazetwelve21]

There is no autotune.

If there was it would jump like a damn crackhead when he yells.

and there is no correction speed that fast.

[terraleone]

@Blazetwelve21

you obviously don't know how autotune works, this is definately altered.

[Blazetwelve21]

@terraleone I have fucking auto tune you fucking dumbass.

Don't tell me shit about not knowing how something works, I know what I'm fucking talking about otherwise I wouldn't have said anything.

The video is just shit quality.

If you record something with an old monitor recording program, it will come out sounding like THAT.

[terraleone]

@Blazetwelve21

I didn't mean to hurt your feelings.

Shame your autotune can't do anything about your 'vocal covers'

[Blazetwelve21]

@terraleone You are a fucking dumbass.

I dont use auto tune in them and in the parts where I do sing, I dont use it cuz I see it as cheating.

So fuck you and your fucking bullshit.

You have no idea of what you're fucking talking about.

[terraleone]

@Blazetwelve21 haha yeah I know you don't use it.

the point was you should.

[Blazetwelve21]

@terraleone I dont like being fake.

Do you?

[hkysum41]

@fuldanips this is autotuned. aol sessions are all autotuned. i dont know why but they are. kenny is awesome without it and doesnt need it. check out any aol session tho. they are all autotuned.

[fuldanips]

@hkysum41 yeah now that you point it out this definitely is. my bad

[hkysum41]

@fuldanips yea its stupid for aol to use it with bands that clearly dont need it.

[njdkidd1231]

@fuldanips sorry but yes this is obviously autotuned

[westbound714]

@terraleone

haha you clearly have zero music experience

[terraleone]

@westbound714

nah mang, i'm pro. buy my album.

It's called '...Baby One More Time'.

you can google that shit.

[taifobchick480224]

There is an interview about this and they asked why he sounds so auto tuned, he said he didn't know why. It just came out like that. And they laughed about how he can sing auto tune with no computer, he can do it himself. haha!

[terraleone]

@taifobchick480224 care to share said interview?

[taifobchick480224]

@terraleone I dont remember, it was awhile back. Sorryyy. I think it was just on some fan base thing.

[juandi44]

one of the best songs ever made,

and his voice is just incredible

[trogdor12309]

whats with the auto tuning? they need to turn that crap off.

[getintoit18]

man ya all have bad judgement. Its autotuned by the correction speed is way up so it doesnt have that robotic sound. Its just to help a little with the pitch. He sounds good. Thats what yall want right ? stop complaining

[calculatorguy]

this is really good

[mtplewis]

awful auto tuning...fuckign aol sessions always does this shit

[EtherealSunrise]

he's saying FLOAT away, how do you flow away?

[EtherealSunrise]

You're wrong, I'm friends with a bunch of bands and they say that AOL forces artists to use auto tune on their settings and you can clearly hear it in this video. Kenny is undoubtedly an amazing singer but there IS auto tune on in this video. From a singer who uses auto tune for studio recordings, trust me.

[nofalter0x]

"just keep on hold me F U flow away,dont you flow away.. " :)

[EtherealSunrise]

AOL jacks the auto-tune up so high. You can hear it so clear on 0:07-0:08 and 3:15 to 3:19 Kenny has a great voice which is why they shouldn't use it but AOL makes every artist use it.

[MonsterChuck]

if thats auto tuned then they did a horrible job...... he is off several times throughout the performance. no autotune my friend. great song, great performance, great band.

[diehardblinkfan4life]

there's auto tune. if you don't hear it, you're deaf.

[MonsterChuck]

MAYBE a slight melodyne effect...... if you have ever uploaded a video or messed with audio compression then you would know that it can effect the quality. tiny little clips like that can not be pawned off on autotune..... they are imperfections in the video and audio quality.

[hollywoodreamer101]

he's got a set of lungs!! awesome dude!!

[watchingtheworld]

the othey guy is Jay from the Almost

[Vernaaahoe]

i consider them huge in my mind lol. Im absolutely in love with kennys voice.

[EtherealSunrise]

holy shit incredible voice and timing

[jeanag17]

@EtherealSunrise I didn't think he could hit those notes so perfectly live.. he has an excellent voice, I'm impressed.

[johnarchy18]

who's the other guy?

[bonjourstorm]

@johnarchy18 the guitar player from the almost

[WeAreGMRSProductions]

this is one of my favorite songs <333333333

[NotesOfThePast]

Sounds awesome acoustic.

[teej1106]

How was this song not an ultra-mega-hit?

[alltimelowava182]

its pretty big just not as big as best of me

[Yunero]

just hope the starting line doesn't come out on radio here, everything the radio touches turns to crap

[alltimelowava182]

agreed

but they broke up so i don't really think we have to worry about that... kind of a good and bad thing

[donnyinlakai561]

That's exactly what I keep asking myself every time I hear this song.... why wasn't this song all over the place.

[knke0402]

they went to # 1 on the Top 40 alternative radio stations in Salt Lake City, UT and Honolulu, HI, but were never pushed to pop stations.. It's shitty. They could have been HUGE

[donnyinlakai561]

agreed

[emonito]

nice group

great song !! :)
