MODERATORS
Cher has been around decades before auto-tune even existed.
What!? You mean she was a singer prior to 1998!?
Nothing existed before The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer's table.
Him hitting the table caused the Big Bang!
Is MetaStatic ShittyMorph??
Technically, if you count her big break as the alarm clock song from Groundhog Day.
Sure but the article specifically mentions autotune being a Cher first thing.
Motherfuckers never heard of a vocoder before.
Also it’s hilarious that other motherfuckers think that auto tune effect was supposed to hide imperfections in her singing and not be a blatant and intentional vocal effect.
“Believe” is a cheesy ass tune, tho
It wasn't a vocoder in Believe but they did lie and say it was initially to keep it a trade secret.
