       Clay Aiken's new song is an anachronism. It's about nostalgia for the early 2000s, but has an obvious 1980s sound -- which doesn't jive with the late '90s Auto-tune effect on his voice. In the video he's driving a 1958-1960 Corvette, not matching any of those decades. And despite the title "Rewind", he uses a CD player, which doesn't rewind. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wa1kZ6xTf68

       @vwestlife Sounds like it was engineered by a marketing team to target an audience that thinks those things are cool and wasn't alive to care about those details.

       @madness832 The shocking thing to me is that he's a year older than me! I thought Clay was 18 or 19 when he was on American Idol in 2003, but he was actually 24!

       The lyrics, too: "lost in a world with no sound, like it's 1899". Edison and Berliner would be rolling in their graves, since there definitely was recorded sound in 1899! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75bDCznaPNI
