It didn't exactly cause that big a stir when it was first announced, but it looks like Nokia's Music Almighty headset design competition still managed to attract a respectable 6,000 entrants, and Nokia is now showing off the five winners that have been manufactured as fully-functional, one-off headsets. The hook of the contest is that all of the headsets had to be inspired by a song, which expectedly drew a whole range of designs from the stylish Daft Punk "Robot Rock" set above to feat of subtlety that is the R. Kelly "I Believe I Can Fly" headset after the break. Hit up the link below to check out the remaining winners, including not one but two Michael Jackson-inspired sets, and look for the whole lot to make their way to the Nokia Regent Street Flagship store in London next month.

Wow, those first ones are HOT! I'd buy 'em.
The first one looks great... but they look like the most uncomfortable headphones EVER. Seriously, it looks like it was custom made for one person's uniquely shaped dome.
the first pair off cans look amazing, like my dream headphones. and I love daft punk.... A LOT! I believe that nokia should manufacture them, I would pay some money for a working pair that looked that good, and had daft punk as the muse for the creator!
Nokia continues to bleed money on stuff like this. Wow.
