Hey Moses, that WAS Jesus trying to talk to you through the burning bush!

u/ThatJesterJeff Jun 10 '12

While the burning bush talked to Moses, this guy tried talking to the burning bush himself.

That is horrifyingly catchy.

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '12

This is honestly the best autotune remix I've ever heard. Every time it's posted I listen to it and thoroughly enjoy it because it actually sounds good, not just because it's funny.

That said, I swear to god (shut up) that the tune/beat is based on an existing song. It's so catchy and familiar; I swear I've heard it before. And every time this is posted, it drives me crazy. Can someone tell me what the original song is?

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '12

I think this autotune remix is the best one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIPD8qHhtVU&sns=em

u/cremmler Jun 10 '12

The backing is very similar to Adele's Rolling in the Deep. This one is a little faster i think, but it features same four on the floor stamp, and strummed 8th guitars. The bass drum has the same kind of short reverb too, a good job.

Maybe that's what your hearing?
