Justin Bieber track “U Smile” slowed down 800%, sounds glorious

I hate on Jusin Bieber as much as the next person does, but there’s no denying how insanely epic his song “U Smile” is…when it’s slow down 800 percent!  Twenty-year-old musician and producer Nick Pittsinger slowed down the track using a computer program called Paulstretch.  What started as a joke quickly turned into an Internet meme of epic proportions.  When played at eight times slower than normal, the song becomes a thirty-five minute trippy score that could easily find a home in something as cinematic as James Horner’s Avatar soundtrack.  Listening to it really is a mind-blowing experience.  What was once so annoying and shameful has turned into a musically precise and epic journey.  Turn up your speakers, close your eyes, and enter the world of Pandora, erm…listen to a Bieber track slowed down.  (Feel free to compare it to the original version here.)

  1. I love this! It is so relaxing after a hard at work. I work in a nursing home and believe the resident’s would love this as well and help relax them. Justin is young and does is doing an awesome job. I wish people would stop making such rude comments about him. He is still just a kid, give him a break. He is a great singer and great on stage, and adorable which is why most guys hate him.

  2. I think the original song was definitely sampled from Journey- Lights ( when the lights go down in the city). At least the chorus. Tell me what you think
