Oh man, those smooth criminal edits have me giggling. I love the nonsense lyrics that result.

I'm familiar with the harmony-tweaking branch of this genre but pleased to know there's a meter-tweaking one.

The Beatle's "Revolution" in straight eighths:

It's based on a hack day project that one of the echo nest founders did, to convert any song into swing eighths. But unfortunately the links on that blog post are no longer live (cuz it's from 8 years ago).

Ah, found it on SoundCloud. Here's "White Rabbit", with swing eighths:

like I've long thought of that as one of the worst opening lines in the history of music and I'm glad someone else thought it was as weird as I did
