The puzzle is solved. Now you can know what the real voices of The Chipmunks are like. Someone has slowed down the chipmunk song. And you know what? I like it.
Here are my impressions: the guys singing sound like a bunch of sweater-wearing frat boys from the 1960s. That is to say their voices have a veneer of clean to them but I would not be surprised if these guys like to break out the brewskies. I dare say they sound quite similar to Frankie Avalon, if you remember him.
As for the slowed down nature of the song, I find it more beautiful than the regular version. It has more of a plodding, driving nature that greatly appeals to me. I give it two thumbs up.

puzzle?
the guy who's called "Dave" does all of the voices.
though it's great that you solved that mystery.
next blog: "I wonder who's buried in Grant's Tomb?
This is actually fantastic!
Can you imagine taking your favorite song ans singing it as slow as possible and still sounding good.
Patton Oswalt had a skit on slowing down the song to get a kick out of Dave's then Demonic voice.
I created a Mashup of the slowed down version last year, featured on Oswalt's page. You can hear it here:
