Justin Bieber Appreciation Thread

Archive: 104 posts


Well, appreciation of his music when it's 800% slower.

Fans of ambient music, just try and deny the awesomeness that is J Biebz:

I'm srry, but I don't understand. :/
Is this some sort of new english slang?

Seriously, I do not know what "Justin Beiber appreciation" means, I've never heard of such thing, don't know if its even possible...
(a typo maybe?).
So can anyone explain to me what that is?

Haha, no. I seriously hate Justin Bieber (the title is a joke if you couldn't tell), but when slowed down 800% I'd listen to this any day over the original (though I've never heard it, I'm guessing it's not far from his other stuff).

And I am a fan of ambient music, and anyone who isn't this clearly wouldn't appeal to them in the slightest. Because as I am I find this alright and better than some actual artists LOL.

I just find it funny that 10s of thousands (even hundreds by the looks of it) enjoy his music more when it doesn't sound like his music The song was uploaded 15 hours ago and already has over 200000 plays xD

Justin Bieber is quite possibly the most annoying and worst pop artist to ever exist.

This thread appreciates his awesome music when slowed down to the point it doesn't sound like his music

Just listened to the full 35 minutes, She may be the worst thing since rover but, at 800% slower it is moody, and relaxing. Well worth a listen.2010-08-17 20:34:00

Even if it sounds completely different.

Believe me, it's not a waste. It sounds incredible - haunting, moody, relaxing. It sounds almost exactly like Sigur Ros. Hating Justin Bieber should only make you more curious about this very unusual occurence.

I think it's pretty amazing actually - Listen to the original song for the first 10 seconds or so (come on, hang in there, you can do it):
(WARNING: Only the first ten seconds! Don't overdo it, as you might cause yourself injury.)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oDgk1E1JI2w

Now listen to the same song slowed way down (and auto-corrected for pitch it seems). It takes a minute and a half to reach the end of just those first ten seconds of the original song. You can tell it's the same original song - and yet it's transformed, completely into something else, something strikingly lovely. Honestly, when are you going to experience something like that? Just listen to it for god's sake, it's actually quite remarkable.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QspuCt1FM9M&feature=related

Extra note: I have listened to the entire 30+ minutes of this slowed-down track. It really starts to swell later in, and it's incredible. Even people who absolutely despise bubble gum pop (I'm one of them) have described this slowed-down track as music that might play at the pearly gates. Heavenly. An angel's choir.
The drums slowed way down sound like ocean waves breaking on a shoal.
His squeaking girly-voice takes on an otherworldy wail. It's haunting in the strangest way. Some people describe it as heaven's music. With the breaking waves and the sorrowful wail, I would describe this as the music played by the sirens, luring sailors to shipwreck and ruin.

Just Bieber has succeeded in being accidentally awesome. Like it or not, this just happened.

How about some quotes from the soundcloud page itself, where people who never heard of Justin Bieber, and those who openly hate him, post their praise (http://soundcloud.com/shamantis/j-biebz-u-smile-800-slower)?



"...as if the secrets of the universe have been unlocked in a Justin Bieber record."

"...This song is absolutely incredible, one of the best I've heard."

"wow, i feel like im being reborn & dying at the same time."

"Better [than a DMT trip] because it lasts longer."

"This is incredible! the worst music in the world is actually some of the greatest i have ever heard!"

"Thirty-five minutes of pure interstellar bliss."

"Slow down the Bieber and you get the sort of music they'd have wafting from the Pearly Gate PA system (I'm sure they have a PA)., while you waited to see if St Peter had your name down."

Teebonesy I must thank you for bringing light to this! I was initially disappointed by the responses as I know people can be closed minded and not willing to change opinions of something they already hate (though this is really form an opinion on an entirely different beast). I've listened to it a few times now, and it really is nice

If you're interested in how the dude did it, he used this program:
http://hypermammut.sourceforge.net/paulstretch/

I've actually recreated it myself with the same song, and tried a few others for good measure. It seems the joyful pop works best as it tends to change pitch constantly (making it just the right speed at 800% or whatever slower)

OK, wow that was pretty amazing. I have listened to it 3 times or so (the 30 min version).
So how much editing did the remixer do? (Just read an interview, none apparently.)
Thanks for sharing.

Interesting how a rose can grow from a pile of manure.

Actually, as a rock/metal fan who despises teeny pop, I say Bieber should get respect. Unlike most of his contemporaries, Bieber plays a variety of musical instruments, writes his own material and is able to put on a good live performance without miming. He is actually a genuinely talented young man who is unusually modest about himself in interviews, and not just another of those "purdy face" brat kids who doesn't know a minim from a quaver, but couldn't care anyway as long as they get famous.

You might not like his music...personally, I hate it...but the kid deserves some respect IMO.

Personally I think, if you don't like the music, stick to what you listen and don't start hating on a kid that just wants to sing for his fans, stop hating it just makes you look like a posterior.

I don't hate him at all. I could never (ever) sing like he does. It's just... his songs... I can't bear those guys who sing stuff like Baby babe I luv u, teh way u move iz amazin' ololololz... And he always has a new girlfriend for each song...

1/ First time, you're like " Hehe, he's right, that girl has wonderful eyes... "
2/ Second song, " Oh... He changed... Well this one is good too " .
3/ Then " Holy carp, is it me or is he a fool ? "

There's nothing new in his songs. Nothing that makes me want to listen to them. That's my two cents.

Fiction.

Technically, that was Monstahr's post. So unless you happen to know whether or not every potential girlfriend that Monstahr has met has been stolen by Justin Bieber, you have no room to talk.

Not to mention that Monstahr's post calls Justin Bieber a homosexual like it's a bad thing. I can't believe you would support homophobia, Bremnen. You should be ashamed of yourself.

This is getting spammy, guys.

I have to ask - as I'm not that up to date with current sampling and recording technology - how in the world, if it's slowed down 800%, is his voice still at the same pitch? Can anyone explain that? it also sounds like the song is in the same key! Now, when I was young and we'd slow down our music, women sounded like men and men sounded like the devil himself, growling from the pit of Hades. I don't understand how it's possible to slow everything down that much and retain the pitch of the music. Is it a fraud???

It's this black magic of modern technology. It is possible to just change the pitch without slowing the song down so why not slow down without changing the pitch... I'm not exactly sure how it works but it sounds cool.

I'm not too savvy on this either, but actually, in Audacity, there are two effects (among many others). Change speed, and Change pitch. It's useful to speed up a song without getting a ridiculous high-pitched voice. The person who did this probably used a software even more powerful than Audacity, so...

How about because the only reason he made it big is because.. *content too inapropriate for this thread*?
lol

Or because he's better than you.

This is getting spammy, guys.

I have to ask - as I'm not that up to date with current sampling and recording technology - how in the world, if it's slowed down 800%, is his voice still at the same pitch? Can anyone explain that? it also sounds like the song is in the same key! Now, when I was young and we'd slow down our music, women sounded like men and men sounded like the devil himself, growling from the pit of Hades. I don't understand how it's possible to slow everything down that much and retain the pitch of the music. Is it a fraud???

Someone actually tried to pull a hoax and post the very same track under a band name in order to try to convince people it was a fraud. However, it is the real deal.

you're right, the track isn't actually slowed down. It's actually called "time-stretching". It's like slowing it down and auto-adjusting for pitch. So you get the song in "slow motion" without all the pitch distortion.

If you really try listening to a segment from the full-speed "u smile" and then listen to the same segment of the stretched version, you'll be able to hear that it's the real deal.

Alternately, any time-stretching program that can re-compress the track down to its regular length will reveal that it is, in fact, unadultered time-stretched Biebz.

The person who did this probably used a software even more powerful than Audacity, so...

It's called Paul Stretch. It's free and very good.

Wow, people. This thread is ridiculous. People just hating on Justin Bieber when the idea of the thread was to show everyone a beautiful piece of music? Can't people open their minds just a little? Look at music and other things in life from a different perspective to hold a much less biased opinion?

Let me just say I cried reading all of the responses in this thread. People are so immature it's not even funny - or it is, but it's really sad as well.


Its a She Stupid

Funny joke. I'm sure it hasn't been used before...


This has to be one of her best edited songs. I bet SHE couldnt of come up with a masterpiece like this.


Hey, don't be mean to Justin Bieber.

She's having many insults thrown her way at the moment.

Yeah...

Also, I like this quote:


JB Is ignorant...

Justin Bieber is ignorant? How so? Let's carry on to the rest of this post.


...looks like an 11 year old girl, and his music is painful to listen too... but other than all that, I guess we should appreciate him(nah, not really) ... just my opinion

There is so much wrong with this. He's ignorant yet you judge him simply because YOU don't like his music and how he looks? He is ignorant because he looks younger than he is? And then you go on to say we shouldn't appreciate him because you don't? Great.

Oh my lord. People, you have to look at things from very different perspectives than you are now. Don't get me wrong, music is totally subjective, and it's impossible for everyone to like it. Practically everyone in this thread hates Justin but has no real reason to. "He looks like a girl and has a whiney voice." Honestly? Is that the best reason? What a shame. This BOY deserves far more respect than what's being thrown at him. He is IN FACT, a very technically talented guy. He plays a variety of instruments and writes his own music - that's already more than a majority of pop artists today.

In response to this people may say, "Yeah? Well, even though he writes his own music, IT SUCKS."

There is no such thing as BAD music. Unless you are looking from a TECHNICAL perspective, based on their skill. Even then, everyone's skills will be loved or hated, sided with or opposed to and so it is difficult to truly pin down the answer to what skill is in the eyes of the general society. People might try to oppose this, but let's face it. Most people think Justin Bieber's music is BAD in this thread, yet millions of other people think it's great. Who's right? No one. It's totally subjective, as with all music.

I personally don't like Justin Beiber's music one bit and have given him a fair listen, but I can't at all say he is not talented or say that I hate him. Have any of you MET Justin? Has he done something to you that would give you a fair reason to hate him? I doubt it.

By the way, I love the song 800% slower. It's a truly moving piece that can capture many emotions. Cool! I normally am not one for ambient music but this is really good. I'm more of a metal/rock guy

Hopefully people got the idea of this post, but in the end...

Haters gonna hate.

Had to be done lol

Justin Bieber isn't the most talented person in the world, don't get me wrong, but he certainly has more talent than what people take him for/most people that make fun of him. Yay. <3

Well said FancyPants. I don't like the music, and I'm not too keen on the guy only because I associate him his annoying music with him (obviously), but christ I don't hate him. I made this thread for people to enjoy a nice tune.2010-08-26 00:25:00

To be completely honest, I know every Justin Bieber song (and joke ) there is as one of my daughters is mad keen on him. I hear them day in and day out. His songs (which he doesn't write, from what I understand) are actually for the most part really well written songs - and very well produced. The fact that he's the age he is and is a pretty boy is really neither here nor there, only in terms of how it makes other teen males feel it seems (which is quite telling, really).

Do I like him? Well, I don't DISlike him, although he was a rude little git to a few peeps while here in Australia, but he could've been having a bad day, who knows? At the end of the day, he's making a lot of little girlies very happy and making a truckload of cash in the process, and perhaps that's what the hostility towards him is really aimed at??

And thanks for the explanation Teeb and everyone. I was hoping it was legit as it's very cool. Me happy

Personally, this is what's ticking me off. His songs. I've nothing against that boy, it's just... his songs. I haven't a monopoly of the musical knowledge, but I like listenning to a lot of different musics and songs every day, and his are full of clich? and triviality. He could sing songs that make you think. Instead of which, he's forced to sing banal songs, that come down to Baby, baby, baby, ohhhhhh. Baby, baby, baby, ohhhhhh. Baby, baby, baby, ohhhhhh. Baby, baby, baby, ohhhhhh. Baby, baby, baby, ohhhhhh. Baby, baby, baby, ohhhhhh. Baby, baby, baby, ohhhhhh. Baby, baby, baby, ohhhhhh. Baby, baby, baby, ohhhhhh. Baby, baby, baby, ohhhhhh. Baby, baby, baby, ohhhhhh. Baby, baby, baby, ohhhhhh. Baby, baby, baby, ohhhhhh. Baby, baby, baby, ohhhhhh. Baby, baby, baby, ohhhhhh. Baby, baby, baby, ohhhhhh. Baby, baby, baby, ohhhhhh. Baby, baby, baby, ohhhhhh. Baby, baby, baby, ohhhhhh. Baby, baby, baby, ohhhhhh.

All this is getting ridiculous. They could've kept the same girl for his video clips at least... Yesterday, I was watching musical channels...

On MTV Idol : And girl you're my one love, my one heart, my one life for sure, let me tell you one time, (Girl, I love, girl I love you).

On Trace TV : My first love broke my heart for the first time, and I was like, baby, baby, baby ohhh, like baby, baby, baby noooo....

I don't even dislike him, but honestly, I couldn't help laughing when I saw this.

From what I've heard, the majority (if not all) of his songs are about him being dumped. And him being the Biebernator, that doesn't make sense.

I don't particularly like him or his songs.

Well, according to the credits at least, he does at least contribute in the writing of his songs.

Are you referring to BabyDoll's comment about his songs being well-written? If so, you kind of remind me of the chimps from that episode of SpongeBob.

Honestly, I don't listen to pop music for deep themes that make me think. Shallow is fun. Sure, it's good to think about things once in a while, but I don't want to "think" when I want to party. Sometimes I just want to go ham.

The songs are written by the label to abuse his undeveloped vocal chords and sell his young, 'pretty boy' image to teenage girls!

Bremnen is quite right, it's all about marketing to a target audience. He probably hasn't even had a girlfriend before, but that's irrelevant. If all those little Bieber loving girlies fork out for songs that make them either feel they're in with a chance or that they want to console him, or whatever, that's a winning recipe for the big bucks. If he sang about Transformers and XBox or whatever else he's probably really interested in.. well, not so interesting for his biggest downloading demographic. Record companies are generally not idiots.

And Oddmania - I agree that Baby is not one of his better songs. Yeah the lyrics are stupid, but how many hits have had the most banal lyrics? Plus my 2 year old loves that one and she can sing along with it easily, so it's grown on me. I heard 'U Smile' sung on YouTube by a fully grown, hormonally stable male and it sounded fabulous. It's a well written song. So are some of the others.

No, absolutely not, dude... I laughed because he declares his love to another girl in every new song (well, actually it's not that unusual...) As I said before, I was watching TV the other day. I checked out what was on on MTV Idol, and I saw him trying to pick up that girl in One Time music video. Then I put on Trace TV and saw him with another girl in another video. Honestly I found this really ridiculous. I'm sorry, but that's what I think. I'm not keen on this kind of singer. Or at least, this kind of song written for a girl the singer met during filming.

By the way, try not to insult me somehow next time.

I'll try listening to U Smile That's true, many hits have just good beats... One of my favorite song is Heartbeat (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VJ_A09O8n1A) by Scouting For Girls. And it's the same kind of stuff... Doing all I can do, just to be close to you, every time that we meet, I skip a heartbeat. Always up for a laugh, she's a pain in the ****... <3

I guess I find this better because it sounds less inane and is sung by an adult.

Oh, nevermind. I thought that you were like "you think Justin Bieber songs are well written? Pshaaaw! Oh, how ignorant you are!" I just misunderstood you. Again, my post said that you remind me of the chimps from spongebob if that was what you meant. Sorry. :eek:

Everything is claimed by a group depending on preference,
I personally don't care for him, thats my preference,
Everyone should be able to have their own.
I'm glad things are starting to cool down on here from the flame war earlier.

To be honest, I don't like him simple because he's an overrated artist. That's it.

I personally have nothing against anybody nor anything. But once they become overrated, I dislike them. I'm not exactly sure why, but it's just the fact that everybody makes such a big deal out for something that it irritates me a bit.

I think that, combined to when the artists we like are underrated, is what feeds our "anger" with him.
