- Noticed the song wasn't by itself on CZcams, so I sought to correct that. I know it's a deviation from my usual content on here, but whatever.

The original work was made by Lunar Orbit and the album it came with can be found here: • Video
This is my favorite cut from "Chipmunks on 16 Speed" and unironically my favorite version of this song.
Same here this is by far the best
Genuinely an amazing version. It is full of pain and anguish now because of the elongated vocals, plus the lower register of all the instruments makes it far more serious and dark. Absolutely love it.
Me too. Vanilla Fudge Live at Ed Sullivan's version is my second favorite version, and its a hella' version.
@@paulhenr1 vanilla fudge Ed Sullivan version is the best. One of the best live tv performances in history. So much energy.
This version is still amazing. But not much can compare to that greatness.
@@paulhenr1 This is Vanilla Sludge.
To think that the singer gave this delivery, this display of emotion and anger for an Alvin and the Chipmunks record. So bizarre. I will add that this sounds amazing on 1.25 speed
This song starts so muted and passive, like standing safely on an overcast beach watching a storm rage way out at sea... then the lead vocal starts, and, holy hell, you feel every ounce of pain in that rough, strained voice.
Song's meaning completely changes just by slowing it down. Music's fascinating.
I've known this since Vanilla Fudge did their version
I think you just noticed what it was actually about when the tone changed. It was always about emotional abuse. The lyrics havent changed....
I mean the original is about the same thing though my dude
No it fucking doesn't lmfao
I think a better way of saying is... it hits way HARDER like this.
From a kidified version of a breakup song to a funeral dirge.
this genuinely goes so hard wtf
Sounds like a Trent Reznor/Phil Collins collab
Oo. Both personal faves. Here's to hoping this tour happens someday.
With special guest Michael Jackson @1:23

Hee hee
@@whoawtf7419 Damn, I thought that was Cartman 😂
You can see at this time Alvin was starting to slip into a dark depression. The divorce had started to take an emotional toll. As well as Theodore using the bands tour money for heroin.
😂😂😂😂
😂😂
This song was stuck in my head at work today and it was literally the only thing that kept me going honestly
kept you... hangin on?
this song is the perfect song for the feelings of being stuck in the cog
Rest In Peace Jonas, and thanks for introducing me to this song
I hate to be ignorant but who is Jonas???
@@donkeydan5996 7 times NES Tetris World Champion who died recently, published a video in which this music was played
@@ADrInOlSa Wow I will look him up thanks so much for answering,
@@ADrInOlSa Can you link the video in question? I can't find it.

Don’t ever let someone play with your heart. Know your worth.
sounds like slightly gritter vaporwave
i'm so here for it
I'm going to start sending this to crushes before we even have a conversation.

Welcome to the Hard Rock Hotel.
May I take your baggage?
3:50 - "And there ain't nothing I can do about it!!!!" LMAO!!!!
This is like an 80s version of the vanilla fudge cover

Did the simulation just glitch? Didn't expect these two parts of my world to collide.
Oh shit... he must of played this on one of his streams. Fuck.
dude this version sounds so hrenchingly PAINFUL x_X
I could totally picture this song playing on Miami Vice .. Crockett and Tubbs grabbing some guns, and driving through the city at night to do some vigilante justice on someone that thinks they're above the law. Just that sick-to-your-gut montage vibe that's drawn out for ages.. but ends with a few quick gun blasts and death.
This is like crawling from the wreckage of a burning car that EXPLODES at 4:32.
3:55- The Chipmunks enlist Depeche Mode
Man that makes me wish that the chipmunks did a cover of “enjoy the silence” just so we would get a 16 speed version of it.
@@RestitutorEuropa I'd say this would sound more like a Black Celebration or Music For the Masses track (at 1.25 and 1.5.) I agree with you on Enjoy the Silence, though.
It totally does. Third on Enjoy the Silence
I feel like this is the kind of song that would play right when a giant mysteriously appears in my room to take my ring.
There is a man in a smiling bag.
it was the best track on sludgefest someone needed to do it.
Volume 1 mostly has bangers.
Boom, Tetris for Jonas.
4:33 to 5:01 My aunt's words to her divorced husband. I always thought that guy was decent just like the rest of the family, but he's not a very good husband and he can't be trusted.
an absolute banger god damn, so grimy and emotional
This tab is just always open... and when I need it, I click on it... and "OHHH WAH OAHH!!" FUCKIN' GOD YES!!
WHOA OO WHOA OO WHOA OH
Perfect for a divorce/breakup
DIVOR
Captain Obvious. Guess what the lyrics are about.
Literally going through a divorce right now, this song fits like a glove.
@@Offensive_Username added emotional weight from the speed
Cursed max out
This would totally work in an episode of Miami Vice, like the one with In the Air Tonight
Is it me or does Ross Jr. slowed to what would be normal speed sound like John Tartaglia?
The beginning sounds exactly like a Jan Hammer track tbh
If david lynch is directing then yes
It’s so sad when happened to, Alvin and the chipmunks, they were very influential in many ways.
ＣＨＩＰＭＵＮＫＷＡＶＥ シマリスウェーブ
here from tetris guy
Jonas squad!
boom tetris for jonas
Same here. Low key it is a great song.
Boom Jonas for CTWC Champion again
RIP Jonas
I’m so confused, is this a version of “keep me hanging on” that was covered by the chipmunks and then slowed down? This is awesome.
yes
The guy who originally did these played old Chipmunks vinyls on a 16rpm suitcase turntable and recorded the results. It's also why these remixes sound so clean because there's no digital distortion like what would happen if one would try to do this through a DAW.
@@AskDrannik that’s awesome information I found these a long time ago but couldn’t find info on them. Do you know if the guy made anything else ?
@@maxcheese382 I looked up his name because it's been a while since I looked up this stuff. His name is Brian Borcherdt, and he's apparently been involved a couple of different things, but his primary gig is a band called Holy Fuck.
...also The Chipmunks aren't real
Thanks for uploading it on its own!
The vocals sound a lot like the Vanilla Fudge version of the song.
Its a sped up cover of that homie.
@@DerricktheWhite Instrumental sounds like the Kim Wilde version though, you'd hear a lot more guitar with Vanilla Fudge
@@DerricktheWhite cute, you think you know what you're talking about.
Cartman comes in at 1:23
This slaps in the cans drinking dolo
it's got shades of the Vanilla Fudge version
Don't listen on .25x speed.
You are welcome
I kinda want to hear a Peter Gabriel cover of this version.
Just did a little experimentation on AudioStretch. Pitch and speed seem to my (extremely unprofessional and probably incorrect) calculations to be different. Speed’s at around 50% of normal, which would make sense if this were from a 33 1/3rd record. However, the pitch seems to be around 1/3rd, which would make sense if this were from a 45 record. I’ll have to do further experimentations (that is, when I finally get around to fixing my 16-45 turntable). Hopefully I’ll make a follow up disproving myself.
Did you compare to the alvins and the chipmunks or just from the original song?
4:00
Genuinely unbelievable, made me emotional.
Wow, thanks Jonas
very cool
I cant believe they forced Alvin into the studio after he shot up his girlfriend with that fatal overdose. They had to shove him into the record label's company car just as they shoved her stretcher into the ambulance. This recording perfectly captured the guilt he was trapped with inside the mic booth. The chambers of his heart being eaten alive. Not knowing by the time he finished laying this track down, she would be dead, and he would be laying her casket down as well.
You can really feel the breackup here
Once Upon a Time in Hollywood [Bad Ending]
"Alternative Ending"
This sounds like maybe it's close to the speed the singers actually sang the song at; it sounds pretty natural, unlike the chipmunk version.
3:22 David Lee Roth
4:33 to 5:01 Those are also my words to my friend's landlord because he wasn't a true friend to me, or to my friend and he didn't take proper care of her by helping her be in better health. Some help he was! And even if he likes me, he won't ever see me again because I've left him since my friend passed away.
It sounds like a lost song from the 1980's or something.
This goes even harder if you put it on 2x fr
TheRantKid/TheRanting Marauder it just sounds normal
Perhaps if I wanted to dance, but I only want to shake my head in pain.
Nah im a 16 speed purist
It sounds like Kim Wilde having an acid trip
love it.xx
This is another attempt to capture what would have been this song in the original recording by Ross Bagdasarian. It's faster and I think it sounds a bit better.

Sounds lile dead can dance, mixed with phm era NIN
The only way this could be better is if Mark Lanegan was singing it ... but that goes for a lot of things
This is cosmic like ?
!boomslow
Anyone put this on 2x speed to see if it balances out?
I switched it for a few bars when I found yr comment. Wasn’t bad.
1.25
This song sounds weird being sung by a trio. Three people are singing about one break up?
6 people actually, the Chippettes are actually here too
This song was written by three men
Alvin
Simon
Theodore
cani have 16 speed and 16d
I thought there was a way slower version of this....
Why does this remind me of slipknot? Hahahahaha
Sort of sounds like “walk with me” eh?
Not that different from the Vanilla Fudge version tbh
Original song??
You keep me hanging on? Lol. By the supremes
Supremes - keep me hanging on
It was covered by Vanilla Fudge and Kim Wild
what do u fuckin think chief
The song is called "You Keep Me Hangin' On" by Brian Holland, Lamont Dozier, and Eddie Holland (the Hollands were brothers). The trio wrote the song for Motown Records in 1966, and you will find many famous 60's songs from that record (some by this same trio, called Holland-Dozier-Holland) defining their "Motown sound" like this one. Kahil Dhaliwal is right that The Supremes first perfomed the song, an archetypical Motown act, though many other performers have covered it since. This is the Alvin and the Chipmunks' cover, first released in 2007, which is a bit of a surprise, in their little-known album "The Chipmunks and The Chipettes: Born to Rock
." Like all Chipmunks records, this was first recorded using normal male voices (or a single male voice overlaid several times) at half speed, then sped up two times. Historically, the normal speed for these novelty albums was the lo-fi 33⅓ RPM. Thus, the original recording speed was equivalent to playing the final album at 16⅔ RPM, which is what we hear here. You might notice some analog artifacts from recording at such a low speed, but mostly what makes these tracks stand out is how eerie the recording sounds at original speed. It's almost haunting, and you can hear just how much pain the singer put in. I don't know who he was (the creator and original vocalist for Alvin and the Chipmunks, Ross Bagdasarian, died in 1972), but he really put his heart and soul into this song.
@@EebstertheGreat Holland Dozier Holland were pretty prolific writers at Motown. Like Issac Hayes and David Porter were at Stax. Lamont Dozier had 2 hit singles that I really love from around 1973 and 1974. Trying To Hold Onto My Woman and Fish Ain't Biting. I first heard the chipmunks Refuge the other day slowed down now this. Yea this guy singing is really delivering the pain!!
this is just half speed
Its a record being played on a 16 speed turntable, so thats why the speed is all messed up
But it's sooo funny!
@@Kramden429 funny or just badass?
yeah but the slower speed actually changed the tone of the song completely, and that MEATY bass sounds nice and grimy the way i like it.
16 rpm is ~50% of 33.3 rpm, the standard LP playback speed
