When I first noticed that something professing to be R.E.M.‘s “Losing My Religion” in a major key was making the rounds on the Internet, I assumed it was some sort of joke at the expense of “Shiny Happy People”. Not so. In fact, it’s a digitally reworked recording of the iconic song by a Vimeo account called Major Scaled, which has given similar treatment to songs by Metallica, the Doors, and a few others. If you’ve heard the original song, it sounds—well, weird, upbeat, and more than a little off. You don’t have to be a music theory expert to spot the difference. And if you haven’t heard the original song? I’m not sure there’s anyone alive who can share that perspective.

The Doors below is just WRONG

 

Any other Crimes against music remixes or strange new technology attempts you've come across?

Reading the many comments. The Dude who had (more time than Tokyo Bearsy & Turks) on his hands has taken a very simple music fact and shown up the difference between Major & Minor keys.

 

ROFL at the Metallica sounding almost Mumford esque on another of his projects
