     This is part of a larger project -- a Toronto guy found an LP of Alvin and the Chipmunks covering pop songs

     The guy had an old record player that could play at 16 RPM

     So he played them all

     They're here: https://soundcloud.com/alvin-thechipmunkson16sp

     The version of Tom Petty's "Refugee" will haunt your dreams

     I wept with uncontrollable laughter for the first two minutes of "Jesse's Girl"

     Here's Alvin and the Chipmunks singing "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas" ... except slowed down to 16 RPM:

     Make sure to read all the listener annotations on the song's timeline 😅
