Video doesn't load so far but the description sounds nice.
And something else I noticed, the video is available in .mov format as well, but it doesn't seem to load any faster.

As well you should, but it looks like this is for real. Yikes! Gadzooks! Balderdash!
The video is ... scary. Truly terrifying.

I've watched the video.

This could be one of the signs of the end times. With this tool, boy bands across the world can generate background music for their songs, without the tryouts, financial support, and musical expertise of the recording industry. The resulting glut of low production pop music will be devastating.

Re: Microsoft Research Songsmith
AWESOME!
I just saw the video and apart from the somewhat disturbing thing that I thought .mov was apple Quicktime and it played in WMP it was absolutely great!
I absolutely want that now and I hope I can get one of those nice green Microsoft coffee cups together with it.
Expect some cool songs from me soon.

Re: Microsoft Research Songsmith
Wait ... wait a minute ... where did the video go? There was this freaky thing with a man who wanted to sell glow-in-the-dark towels learning to sing from his daughter ... where is it? Did they take it down out of shame? It was amazing and horrifying, all at once!
I should have downloaded the vid when I had the chance. Does anyone have it?
-edit-
Oh, thank goodness, someone was smart enough to archive it on YouTube. I was afraid this cultural document would be lost.
-edit of the edit-
Oh. My. God. There's a whole bunch of them.

Re: Microsoft Research Songsmith
I obviously downloaded the .mov file.
And why would I delete such a piece of art?
Oh and the coffee girl is actually cute. No seriously.
