Autotune

Instagram live: October 2017
From hotel while on tour in Brazil
I need you to understand that if somebody sings and they're not all autotuned, and the notes move a little bit, that's like a tree swaying in the wind. That's a beautiful thing. Imagine going out for a walk and none of the trees moved at all. That's the sonic equivalent of what autotune sounds like. Things have to sway. Things have to sway.

"Shouldn't Matter But it Does." That song was recorded live, and for you tech nuts, you can hear the phasing of the microphone as I move my head as I sing. That thing happens as I've got an acoustic mic and a vocal mic. And it's performed live. Which means you can't autotune, you see! So you are held to the conviction of the performance more than the perfection of the note. And I'll be driving in the car listening to this song hearing myself go, [sings line with last note slightly out of tune] "shouldn't matter but it does. Doesss." And I'll move it in my head, even though it's sharp. And maybe I'm the only one who knows it's sharp. But ain't love sharp sometimes?
