"One Note Samba" with Melodyne (Autotune / pitch correction)

This is actually my SECOND Jobim song (my first ever video was a punk rendition of "Girl From Ipanema").

Just to let you know, I really like Jobim's music. It's what got me into jazz guitar.

This was inspired from hearing a song at work that was simply using a pitch correction program to obviously (as a stylistic choice) snap all pitches to one note. I thought, there's already a song like that, "One Note Samba" ("Samba De Una Nota") by Antonio Carlos Jobim. This hybrid was inevitable. At least, in MY mind....

By the way it's much more difficult to do the proper pitch-correction when intentionally singing off-pitch ;-). I also arranged the solo and placed all the notes individually, not simply where Melodyne automatically put it in the scale. Melodyne actually changes the pitch and formant of the notes, while Autotune (I believe) uses a vocoder. (I may be wrong here, though.)

@2008galves You need to read comments below. Yes, the song is a Bossa Nova. But the song has the word "samba" in it. I didn't write that. The 1962 album the song gained popularity was called "Jazz Samba" (from which I took the style). The category of the album is "Bossa Nova."
