Jenna Ortega:

WAIT. I was listening to music in a higher register when I tweeted this and was hearing yanny. Just listened to a song w a lower register and heard laurel. your brain is just adjusting to frequencies!

So maybe it’s actually both? Like both of the words over lapping or something but in different frequencies? So yanny is higher and laurel is lower.

Alex Lange:

it’s playing both Yanny and Laurel at the same time.

if i choose to focus on a specific pitch, i can control which one i hear..

try listening to different music and maybe it’ll change the way you hear it? that’s what happened to me

Ally Brooke:

Jordan Fisher:

OKAY HI SCIENCE. It’s both. Wow.
Our ears hear and assign frequencies a little differently than the next person. We love individuality.

Try to split the voice between the clicks into two. The higher pitch is saying Yanny and the lower is saying Laurel. Goodnight. https://t.co/Sm9QXcauNX

Don’t let social media and mob mentalities do this to you. Also, a round of applause to whomever blended two computer dictations together and called it pop culture.
