What a disgrace! The plasticising of Billy Joel's Super Bowl anthem rendition!

Oh my god, what an insult to the man himself, to the Superbowl and really to America in general to have Billy Joel perform the Star Spangled Banner with an auto-tune effect on his voice! I think it's just a sad reflection on how artificially tweaked some things have become in the US these days! I only happened to notice this because I was watching my recording of Prince's wonderful halftime show and then thought I may as well rewind and see how Billy Joel fared... well, I was DISGUSTED!

Why didn't more people notice this? To me, it is just ridiculous that Janet Jackson bares a breast and conservative America throws a fit, while a man who can actually sing well is forced to have his vocals essentially SCREENED for tuning problems and in the process is made to sound totally OUT OF TUNE!

DISGRACEFUL!!
