Lots of folks are apparently having issues with the MacBook Pro keyboard. But only one of them wrote a song about it.
Meet Jonathan Mann. He’s internet-famous for writing a song a day for the last 10,000 years, give or take. And now, he’s used his songwriting skills to express his disappointment with Apple customer service.
It seems there is a bit of dust under his space bar, which will cost quite a bit to remove or fix. So, naturally, he broke into song:
True story: ♫ I'm Pressing The Space Bar & Nothing Is Happening ♫
Song inspired by my MacBook Pro and @caseyjohnston's piece.

The Casey Johnston piece to which he refers is subtly entitled: “THE NEW MACBOOK KEYBOARD IS RUINING MY LIFE.”
Johnston believes the butterfly switch design under the keys is the root of the problems, and she voices frustration with her own long-running issues with her MacBook.
Apple has not publicly acknowledged any issues with the keyboard. But if the company does, we hope it comes in the form of Tim Cook singing in another Carpool Karaoke.
