Yesterday all that I heard was Yanny. I listened to a different recording just now and all I heard was Laurel. Weird.

I hear Laurel clear as a bell. Not a hint of Yanny at all. Just Laurel over and over.

I heard both. Initially I hear Yanny, then I can hear a deeper voice saying Laurel and if I focus on that, then all I hear is Laurel.

It's SO CLEARLY Yanny. But DH can't hear anything but Laurel.
But then I listened to the audio adjusted versions and the 20% higher one suddenly said Laurel. It was like everything I knew was a lie.

Yesterday, I heard Laurel on all my devices. DS only heard Yanny. Today, I only hear Yanny. I'm super annoyed. It also makes my dog cry for some reason.

I heard Laurel clearly when I played it on my IPhone. I played it while I was walking to my car & once I started the car and my Bluetooth connected, the sound I heard coming from my car speakers was Yanny. Weird! I'm now on my IPad & I clearly hear just Laurel.

I can hear both. When I push play, or know that it is about to be played on the news (they just ran a story here), I heard Yanny. But then the show went to commercial and came back and talked about something else. Then out of the blue they played it again, and I heard Laurel that time. So weird.

I can only think that there are two versions of this as it's a giant prank, because no way IRL would we get such emphatic answers one way or the other. We wouldn't be able to understand each other if our perceptions were so different, because those words sound nothing alike and I can hear only Laurel very clearly.
Idk what kind of fuckery this is but I'm just not buying it.

I'd love to agree with you, but when you have peas saying that different individuals in their household, simultaneously listening to the same recording, are hearing different things, I can't see how it's a prank either.

Having originally heard Yanny, I just listened to the recording slowly sped up and heard Yanny-Yelly-Laurel.

I get and understand why we are hearing different things. But, has anyone figured out what the voice really said (not what we hear but what was spoken?)

I heard both. Initially I hear Yanny, then I can hear a deeper voice saying Laurel and if I focus on that, then all I hear is Laurel. Okay, so I'm Team Yanny. But, once you posted about the deeper voice I went back and listened again. I forced my brain to focus on a deeper voice and sure enough there's Laurel. lol. But I can only hear it if I really concentrate, kind of like trying to pick out what your friend is saying to you in a crowded bar. If I lose focus then Yanny takes over.

I didn't read the entire thread....why are we hearing it differently? My first theory was that older people would hear Yanny and younger ones Laurel, but that's been disproved already just by some people on this thread. lol

Yesterday it was all Yanny, all the time. Today I listened again, the original audio is still Yanny, but the one further down, with the base adjusted is now Laurel, clear as day. It's so odd to me that both are the same word, but I hear two completely different ones.

I heard 'yarry' not yanny for a minute or so then it very clearly became laurel. Very strange when I heard the change!
