About

Alvin and the Chipmunks is an American animated franchise created by Ross Bagdasarian Sr., for a novelty record in 1958.

History

In 1958, Ross Bagdasarian, Sr. released a novelty song (as David Seville) about being unsuccessful at love until he found a witch doctor who told him how to woo his woman. The song was done by Bagdasarian in his normal voice, except for the "magic" words, done first in Bagdasarian's pitched-up, pre-Chipmunk voice, then in a duet between his pitched-up voice and his normal voice. The words themselves are nonsense: "Oo-ee, oo-ah-ah, ting-tang, walla-walla, bing-bang".

Chipmunk Versions

“Chipmunking” or “Chipmunk versions” are songs that have been sped up (or just had the pitch changed directly) to be high pitched, done easily with Audacity. The name derives from “Alvin and the Chipmunks”, a cartoon show created in the late 1950’s about three chipmunks that sung with high pitched voices.
