First time I listened to it yesterday it was Yanny all the way. I found a clip of someone modifying the pitch and could hear both Yanny and Laurel, then somethign switched in my brain and now when I go back to the original clip all I can hear is Laurel.

This website says if you're a man or older it's harder to hear the yanny. It also lets you listen to both so you know what you're missing.

Apparently the high frequency part of the clip sounds like "yanny" and the low frequency is more "laurel":

(I don't remember how to embed Tweets but it's a video that clips parts of the audio to show the difference)

I hear Laurel, but I can see how it can sound like Yanny if I think about it when I'm listening to it.

It instantly flipped on me...first few cycles all was Yanny, then all of a sudden it was Laurel, and now that's all I can hear.

Anyone who hears Yanny is a ####ing communist.


Edit: ####, I'm a communist. I totally hear Yanny now. I heard Laurel last night on my laptop at home. Even with the video someone made adjusting the bass levels to "force" you to hear the Yanny, I could only hear Laurel. Now it's Yanny.
