Video: Billy Mays – “The Auto-Tune Infomercial Ballad”
Pitchman extraordinaire Billy Mays never met a product he couldn’t pitch when he was alive. Thank goodness someone with access to Auto-Tune, Mays’ reel of commercials, and free time put together this memorial video retrospective of the master in action, pitching everything from health insurance to household cleaners in a way that T-Pain might approve of. A cameo by Scatman John (who died ten years ago) of “Scatman (Ski-Ba-Bop-Ba-Dop-Bop)” fame makes this clip even more, um, memorable. Something tells me that Billy would’ve been happy to endorse this video.
