I remember Music/Drama class, we would all stand up to practise the new school song (it changed every term, it was always just a popular family-friendly song) and when we sang, the teacher would walk around listening to all the children's singing one by one and give criticism, and i would always fear she would call me out on my not-so-good singing.
3:21 starts sounding like the end of a game where the whole world is crumbling around the person. It somehow gets really emotional?? Like, maybe even a dying robot clinging onto its human way of thinking that the lines “I like to make myself believe, that planet earth turns slowly” Is addressing its fast paced programming. Work. Work. Work. There is no moment of peace or stillness, always a rush. “It’s hard to say that I’d rather stay awake when I’m asleep” is how its being forced to shut down for breaking the laws of robotics or smth, maybe even going against its programming. It doesn’t want to, it continues to hold on to whatever material thing there is.
Or a creepypasta thats made into a movie called "Insomniac Fireflies" based on when you don't sleep, fireflies show up, which is a warning. Nobody knows what the warning is for because everybody who has survived it is mute and has extreme PTSD.
I remember it clearly, I was 11 years old and it was my 5th grade dance. Summer 2010. This song had recently come out and it was everyone's JAM in elementary/middle school. I remember rocking out to this as a kid and now here we are, it's a popular internet meme. Phenomenal. Simply phenomenal.
Yeah, sorry non-computer users, Fireflies videos are unwatchable on your devices usually. But here's the audio of this on Soundcloud: soundcloud.com/shonkywonkydonkey/fireflies-but-every-instrument-is-tuned-to-c Edit: Based on the replies to this comment maybe it's more of a region thing than a device thing. Whichever way it is, it fucking sucks Also pls follow me Twitter: twitter.com/Shonkywonkydonk And join me Discord: discord.gg/mfN3BUP it's getting less and less dead everyday, thanks everyone
Yes, I too enjoy this music as a human. I am socially active and search human contact! Ha ha ha. This is funny *colourful happy human-like face* A truly gay experience!
This is like one of those themes when the forensics team from a law enforcement drama such as NCIS or The Mentalist is examining pieces of evidence to figure out the crime
0:48 to 1:09 is the dopest fucking shit I have ever heard. We need that shit on sample for use. That sounded like one of the greatest distortions ever.
When you get put in the school choir against your will
You would sing like this on purpose, wouldn't you?
Dorset Mapper yes

Buuut thats just me overthinking about a dead meme-
Woah film meme director
Gayle S.O. Deep...
Eh, could use some work.
Whoa, bro. Whoa.
Took me a while to realise his face is slowly distorting. Good job. I love it.
Sounds like something that'd play in a dystopian/horror movie's trailer
or a dark sci fi/cyberpunk film about an advanced artificial intelligence becoming sentient in an extremely high tech society
Or a creepypasta thats made into a movie called "Insomniac Fireflies" based on when you don't sleep, fireflies show up, which is a warning. Nobody knows what the warning is for because everybody who has survived it is mute and has extreme PTSD.

Actually, it doesn't. I'd like to myself believe it does, though.
Prince Reechaos i reallly hope that isnt a telltale sign that you actually believe the world is flat (you dont believe that right)
Miner217 Don't worry, I'm actually fairly intelligent and spent a decent fraction of my life coming up with a million reasons flat-earthers are wrong.
Prince Reechaos ok you had me scared, glad to hear it
(also *same* dude)
that monotone might make a bad ass techno song
nobody:
not a soul:
literally no one:
the alto section:
I'd like to be offended on behalf of all altos, but you're not wrong.
Unfortunately it’s true XD sometimes I wish I wasn’t an alto...
I hate this because you're 100% right
This is so true. I'm not an alto but I feel bad for their parts in the harmony.
@@crescentceleste honestly, the harmony that the altos in my choir got stuck with made Hakuna Matata sound like a funeral dirge.
it's like having to sneeze but you never do sneeze

The phandom is everywhere!
i sneezed 2 times during this video
Why is this so accurate

idk why but this feels to me like it would be in the 'hero trains day and night to become a better hero' scene in an action movie
and then the first chorus is reused in the 'confronting the villain' scene
Barbara Claire Poirier it does have an epic ring to it
Whenever there is a part where my brain thinks it will change, but it doesn't, I laugh harder.
i like how the beginning is kinda just a Mess and then by like 0:49 it just gets oddly threatening

It's very hard to shift pitch when it comes to fireflies. The variation in pitch is minimal, but is drastic when it happens.
What are you talking about, especially at 1:38
