Someone pitch-shifted Daft Punk's new single, and now it sounds like Michael Jackson

Daft Punk’s new single “Get Lucky” has already built an enormous amount of anticipation for the robots' new record Random Access Memories, first in snippets and a Coachella trailer, then in multiple unofficial leaks before the song's official debut last Friday. But now there’s yet another curiosity regarding the track—a YouTube video pitch-shifting the song that makes Pharell’s vocals sound like a long-lost Michael Jackson collaboration. It’s not completely precise, but by pitch-shifting instead of simply speeding up the track, it’s the same length and tempo, just with the ghost of the King Of Pop hovering over everything.
