I've been obsessively listening to the following song for weeks because it's amazing:

Today I discovered this next song, by the same guy:

There is an artist by the name of Windmill who's album Epscot Fields is about space. The song Photo Hemispheres is about Carl Sagan, in case you are interested!

The lyrics are good, but I can't stand that kind of use of Autotune... I'm sorry, but I'd rather hear meh singing than that autotune crap.

I like these videos. They remind me of why I think life is worth living.

I don't really know what autotune is but if you mean how the voices are changed, I agree. I didn't even like the second song the first time I heard it because the voices were weird. It sounds natural in the first song though, and the second one grew on me quickly.
