Auditory Illusions: Hearing Lyrics Where There Are None

I here the lyrics but theey are screaming and dying while doing that

the vocals almost sound like a glitchy zoom call

instantly heard the lyrics in all star because when i hear the song i think of shrek.

what my friends mic sounds like:

this is so interesting and fascinating that humans can just do this like I mean the program idk whos playin that tho

I don't even know piano man and I could still hear the words

That is genuinely the coolest thing I've seen possibly ever, that your mind fills in the gaps (lyrics) for you when it hears the song

The song at the beginning sounded cool asf bro, like a chase song, reminds me of phonty chase scene

This is not an illusion. This is the piano adding waves to each other and as you increase the number of precisely tuned and attenuated waves, it approaches the sound of the lyrics. In other words this is just a demonstration of the fourier series

the time is near, and so i face. the final curtain

what if you converted just the vocal track

“So, what type of music do you listen to?”

“Well…”

There is an auditory illusion of me saying the n word

I wonder what a track with only vocals and no instrumental would sound like. Would it sound like a piano is talking, or would it become unintelligible? Does the fact that I recognize the music help my brain fill in the gaps, or would an unknown speech be something I could interpret?

why is it not bad

I have found that the best instrument is "Ohh Voices" (unsurprisingly). I can clearly hear the Pokémon lyrics.

That’s actually so freaking awesome.

I don't know Piano Man but I still hear words

bro i heard the lyrics even though i never heard the song before

human voices are just specific soundwaves, so you can recreate them using other instruments, it's not really scary or that hard once you know the basic science behind it

If you think of it, the piano is just a very low resolution frequency spectrum...

i didn't hear any vocals but my ears hurt

This is minecraft brainrot

i did this with surfin' bird and it sounds completely atrocious lol

Pude escuchar el ha ha ha estoy en el lago

I was about to say, a lot of this relies on already knowing what the lyrics 'should' be.

Those layered midi do be looking like the matrix though.

Can AI hear voices

piano man really got me

This video is a certified hood classic

This is cool! I found some of these midi files myself by accident. I got one for a song called "Firefly". At first I thought - this midi file is a piece of crap. And then I looked into it and the tracks were all over the place, and the tempo of the midi file didn't match the actual beats in the song. But then it was playing in another room, and I thought - "wait, I think I can hear it saying the word - FIrefly"! And I thought can hear drums too! That plus the fact that everything was timed exactly correct according to the original and I realized someone must have made a tool to do frequency analysis on an mp3 and just put the nearest frequencies into piano notes, very rapidly. It's actually pretty awesome! Long time ago in computer music class, we simulated some speech sounds using just sine waves. Basically the only difference between "oo" and "ee" is the overtones. (Now what would be really impressive is if someone could physically play an actual piano and have it sound like speech).

Sounds like something that would come out of some "ghost hunting" audio equipment on Ghost Adventures.
Zak Bagans: It seems as if a demon pretending to be a little girl is mocking the Holy Trinity by putting "her finger and her thumb in the shape of an L on her forehead."

that midi version of stayin' alive would be GREAT in a horror game.

At first i heard dame tu cosita ngl

のばまんから

Anne Boleyn on the piano again?

I'm concerned by the number of comments who claim they don't know Stayin' Alive. Know that I'm judging you. Being a Gen Z'er is no excuse to not know a timeless classic.

for me the clearest one was all star, what are you guys hearing in the pokemon and sonic ones???? I can't even make out voice, let alone words

Haha funny

Как человек рускоязычный, слов не слышу, но наслаждаюсь сатанисткими звуками

it's been 9 years and I'm still waiting for someone to build a robot that can play these on a real piano and see how it sounds

it's weird how when I know the words, i hear smash mouth singing, but when i don't, all i hear is piano 🤔

This is the exact same Midi converter that gave us the 8bit certified hood classic "John Cena theme."

Damn, the longer I listen, the more it sounds like voices.

im curious if global tuning at 440hz has any effect on the outcome of the midi. I'd like t o see this done with a song in 432hz, or 528hz.

i've never heard the original sonic one before, so i can't tell what the lyrics are, but i can hear some kind of singing

Thanks! Now i know what my nightmare will sound like tonight.
