From the “How Did I Miss This Before Now?” files:
The mission of Sweden’s Sveriges Radio is “to provide high-quality programmes for the Swedish population.” And, apparently, to turn the words of everyone in the world into song. In 2003, the sr.se site launched a little app that will translate whatever text you input into spliced-together bits of popular songs. Whenever it encounters an “I,” you hear Chris Isaak, and “one” is sung by Michael Jackson. You can email the resulting song to a friend.
Open the Let Them Sing It For You app and hear Kanye West’s infamous interruption a whole new way.
Josh Jackson is the editor-in-chief of Paste magazine and blogs daily about music, film and culture (and sometimes beer) at High Gravity. You can follow him on Twitter @joshjackson.
