Seriously, from a production standpoint, it's hard for the average person to fathom exactly how much went into making her original vocal recordings sound acceptable in that mix.

The amount of pitch bending, subtle auto-tuning, re-sampling, underlying chorus delay (or just really good reverb?)... it's a nightmare.

Hah, thanks, galen, now Reggie Watts's name is permanently soiled for me... he was featured in several of Yoko's "Bad Dancer" scenes. Always nice to see my so-far-spotless icons stumble, makes me realize we're all just constantly gambling on our decisions.

...But seriously, gambling on Yoko had 120 to 1 odds!
