This is a neat little web app. Let Them Sing It For You takes your written prose or lyrics and substitutes the text with samples of popular music from throughout the years. The result is usually something difficult to understand without text prompts, but it’s certainly a lot of fun. Maybe I should translate the entirety of my next podcast this way. :-)

So here’s some added fun. I’ve used this service, and Wiretapped the results into an .mp3 file.

The text: “Hi, and welcome to my site”.

The audio: WelcomeToMySite.mp3

So who can pull out and identify all of the sample sources/artists/songs?

Hmmm … I think this could have some neat applications for a lesson/activity somewhere.
