It's likely they recorded them at a slow speed (maybe not this exact tempo) and they sounded pretty rad. Then they sped them up for the chipmunk effect.

they probably did the vocals at something close to this but given how distorted and dubby the instrumentals are they were likely recorded at live speed

okay well some of them anyway "always on my mind" features a loving crystal clear cowbell used like a loving snare lmao they must have had fun recording this poo poo

Well the vocals were for sure, but the music was probably played normally and layered in. So what you get now is slowed down music with normal vocals and it sounds rad as hell.

It's really disturbing that they put "My Sharona" on a children's album. Yeah, lines like "I always get it up for the touch of the younger kind" would fly over most kid's heads, but we all know what it means.

Yeah I'm surprised that these are unedited. My fave album in my wee years was Urban Chipmunk and almost every song on that one had some changed or omitted lyrics.

Granted, the two Kenny Rogers songs were about gambling and rape respectively but still.

Made for Each Other slowed down is amazing. It'd make the perfect background music for a scene where a redneck trucker commits suicide in a roadside tavern.

This is the first one I can vaguely remember from my childhood and that just amps up the creepiness another notch.

And huh, I assumed all three chipmunks were the same guy but apparently Theodore's a woman? (Around 2:15) Learn something new every day.

Had to give it a second shot after this comment. If you can make it through Satan's verse, it only gets better. And then Crosby, Stills & Nash finish it off.

Motions of the sense



I had heard a slowed down version of one of the old tracks like I Told The Witch Doctor or something like that and it was fun to hear how it was recorded, but was nothing like these tracks.

Someone chip in with me to bootleg this poo poo on vinyl I'm serious.

I can't find the actual singer's names anywhere, so it's still unclear what gender the chipettes' voice actors are. I guess with cartoon squeak voices everyone sounds girly.

I think the chipettes songs are sung by women. Walk like an egyptian definitely sounds like a woman's voice that has been slowed down. The playback is slower than the actual voice recordings.

Edit: Wikipedia says Janice Karman is the voice and creator of all three chipettes.
