"Some of my favorite recordings, from when I was a kid in the 80s.. punk and post-punk, were by bands who didn't sing perfectly in tune. Joe Strummer would be considered 'pitchy' by contemporary standards. The blues and jazz where it all comes from is all about the 'blue note' -- the place that's in between the regular notes. Auto-Tune takes the character of our singing; there's so much variety of sound from voices recorded in the Auto-Tuneless past.
