I hate on Jusin Bieber as much as the next person does, but there’s no denying how insanely epic his song “U Smile” is…when it’s slow down 800 percent!  Twenty-year-old musician and producer Nick Pittsinger slowed down the track using a computer program called Paulstretch.  What started as a joke quickly turned into an Internet meme of epic proportions.  When played at eight times slower than normal, the song becomes a thirty-five minute trippy score that could easily find a home in something as cinematic as James Horner’s Avatar soundtrack.  Listening to it really is a mind-blowing experience.  What was once so annoying and shameful has turned into a musically precise and epic journey.  Turn up your speakers, close your eyes, and enter the world of Pandora, erm…listen to a Bieber track slowed down.  (Feel free to compare it to the original version here.)
