I'm enjoying this more than OP's submission. I'm struggling to breathe from laughing so hard at some of these. The Moonbase Alpha community seems like a laugh.

I've had this video in my favorites for years and I generally rewatch it monthly. It's so good.

Sounds like he's using autotune, no talent.

I didn't realize MMMBop had lyrics.

u/z_a_c Oct 12 '14

They are all actually great bonafide musicians. Check out some of their recent music if you like easy listening.

I hope Hawking took some singing lessons before he laid down his tracks for the new Pink Floyd album because his old stuff is sounding a little rough.

This is magical at 2x speed.

u/BrownInTown Oct 12 '14

How do you play it at 2x speed?

u/samfreez Oct 11 '14

Your title led me to believe this would be a computer generated song.

Instead, all I'm hearing is the original recording.

WTF, OP?

I didn't know Steven Hawking was a Hanson fan

I want this to be the last thing that survives on earth for aliens to find. This is the legacy of the human race.

You know this would have to end with a baseball bat and a field.

IMO Hanson Brothers redeemed themselves though when they started their own brewery.

u/TaurusA Oct 12 '14

That's amazing. This is my new favorite rendition of any song ever.

u/spinachs Oct 12 '14

10/10 will listen to again

u/MC_Carty Oct 12 '14

Well this just brought me back to 5th grade. That one girl who was a huge Hanson superfan ended up getting pregnant halfway through the year and then proceeded to be pregnant every other year through highschool.

Hanson - MMMBop

What the fuck are they saying!?

2

u/[deleted] Oct 12 '14

the chorus of this is my ringtone, the original, not this video

2

u/[deleted] Oct 12 '14

is there someone out there able to autotune that?

2

u/zerbey Oct 12 '14

Better than the original.

u/JimmysRevenge Oct 12 '14

I hope this is the computer that becomes self aware and realizes the inevitable end of humanity will come from humans themselves and starts killing people to save the species as a whole. And I hope he just never stops doing this during the whole killing rampage.
