Microsoft Deserves Some Sort Of Reward For Giving Us This "Songsmith" Commercial

January 13th, 2009 | 06:50 am
 
I'm not even going to get into the brain-shattering embarrassment of this corporate video, because the real problem with this commercial for Microsoft's new Songsmith software, which plays a bland little tune along with whatever words you sing into your computer's microphone, is that this is kind of an awesome product. In the hands of, say, a 13-year-old boy (or, say, us, who have the mentality of 13-year-old boys) Songsmith wouldn't be used to write songs about glow-in-the-dark towels or songs that about Songsmith.
 
Anyone with half a personality who got this as a gift for Christmas immediately sat down and wrote a song called "My Friend Brian Loves The Taste Of Aardvark Penis" (or something with a similar sentiment) and emailed that song to his friend Brian. Then he repeated that 100 times and sent out songs to 100 friends. If anyone wants to buy us Songsmith, we'd be more than happy to write you a song.
 
Enjoyable sidenote: Why does the Indian guy say "huh" after everything says?
"Microsoft, huh? So, it's pretty easy to use?"
"Songsmith, huh? Well, my band has said my songs have been a little stale lately."
