Thinking about what it would be like to be Ralsei with another lyric cover story: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysZL...

i made an oopsy. I forgot that the Z fold 7 ultrawide camera is absolutely garbage when it comes to taking sharp video footage. oh well.

Sometimes I feel bad that my music covers of 30+ year old games predictably only get 12 views, but then when someone comments with view 13 it feels worth it.

i'm a psychopath, but hear me out....Alicia from Expedition 33 but in the style of and mashed up the SSBU theme song, complete with reinterpreted lyrics for Lifelight

I can feel the mania coming on...I want to create a pseudo musical of an utterly unlicensed video game that wasn't very popular to begin with, with animation. There's no way this will get more than a few thousand views at max. It would literally just be setting cash on fire for personal enjoyment

Can y'all check something out for me? In this video, if u go to settings, do u have the ability to change the audio to Canadian English? If so, can you listen to the piece 2 times: 1st with original language & 2nd with Canadian English and let me know your thoughts! youtu.be/CtKpVfT5jnY?...

hello everyone who was searching for @insaneintherainmusic.com 's Determination cover after 10th anniversary stream and instead found my cover instead lol hope ur disappointment isn't immeasurable

"You should let old music lie and focus on new releases" ACTUALLY ME:

What if a Japanese zaibatsu metastasized into an intergalactic civilization? What culture would such produce? What would be the lyrics of a pop ballad produced by loyal corporate accountants lamenting their struggles to work their way into the innermost clique?

someone asked me what my favorite cover has been, and I correctly guessed it must have been one where i wrote sung lyrics. The answer is the utterly unlicenseable mashup of Secret of the Forest (Chrono Trigger) x A Bell is Tolling (Secret of Mana). Peak performance www.youtube.com/watch?v=CtKp...

1. the pokemon sleep team knows exactly what they are doing here 2. *glances nervously at Bewear pokedex entries*

People be like: "I don't want to give YouTube my ID, what if YouTube gets hacked?" Meanwhile, people also be like:

I'm at a point in my artistic life where I have more fun sharing recordings with like, 5 people in a private forum than publishing to YouTube. I'll still get around to it eventually, but I know the latter is going to hurt me psychologically lol

vagueskying: "oh, have you figured out how to pay people reliably?"

Gemini thinking about whether it should just lie to my face before deciding otherwise. (It actually still lied. Gemini can access YouTube videos but whatever)

Why yes, I am going to put this mix I'm working on repeat because I like it. Why no, I'm not going to share it to the internet because then the bad views would be depressing.

I feel like companies are basically going to have to drop legal-ese TOS at some point. People don't read them to know basically every service has this, and when they do, they misinterpret what it means

i was listening to the shaggs and then youtube recommends one of my own songs to me, and that was quite the juxtaposition

my cats are meowing in alarm outside of my door because I gave the most unhinged cackle some people have said that adding lyrics to deltarune songs is cringe and I'm fully channeling it

ME: I feel like there's a track from deltarune chapter 4 that's channeling homestuck vibes, like...genesis frog. but which is it? GYAAA it's on the thip of my tongue

based on the AI powering YouTube's Inspiration tab, it seems like I simply must cover The World Revolving from Earthbound

Looking forward to the release of Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles, revisiting a desolate desert land, some of its sand scorched to glass, and wondering: what could have caused this? www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vr3F...

TFW you put your favorite parts, lines, riffs, etc., in the 2nd half of the song but since your audience retention and CTR are both crap, most people miss it.

The plural of oomf should be somf, momf, or if you're talking about all of them, aomf

so, youtube now recommends me community polls of people writing polls about google account things. such as this. and like, there's one answer that's definitely closer to the others, but the people facing this issue usually don't have the right things set up to be able to go through Account Recovery

Statistically speaking, you were not different. But I hope it won't be too late for you

Me, trying to report a bug: "so there's this weird occurrence I've noticed from a few folks posting on the forum. Seems like a bug" Support team: can you get a recording of it for the engineers? Me: I'm sure at least one of the users experiencing it will provide a recording (I was wrong)

Q: "How do you grow as a musician in a crowded algorithmic landscape" A: get the music featured in a hit game, animation, web series, etc. no one cares about music on its own. Q: but what if the game/animation/etc., doesn't hit A: so sad! try again with a better game/animation/etc.,

I bet my friends still want a bite

I appreciate we musicians are having the conversation about music covers not being as well appreciated as, say, music reaction videos. I appreciate some viewers are being real and saying there is nothing that could get them to watch a music cover. not happy, but thanks for being real, i guess.

not gonna make it

Apple: "bet we can release the worst UX of 2025" YouTube: "hold my beer"

TFW people complain on YouTube discord servers and community help forums that their shorts get 2k views then stop getting any more, and then you note that most of your shorts can't even get anywhere near that. (Ok, I'm not trying to be serious with shorts, but it's the same for longs)

since Final Fantasy Tactics is getting remastered, I have an excuse to revisit my old FFT covers. The original recordings are so old that I'll probably re-record all the parts, but the fun part is adding lyrics 🤗

one reason I am disappointed by my video performances is because some of these lyrics have top tier A++++ puns and no one is there to recognize and realize that. "Piercing the Corporate Veil" has basically justified my entire stint through business school. www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMD7...

It's going to be so funny in 2 days when YouTube says that results are statistically inconclusive

Can a man born into the underworld who barely escaped it help take it down? www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVZO...

TIRED: creating new music WIRED: endlessly returning to old reaper files to add layer upon layer of backing vocal tracks, knowing that you can't replace the audio on youtube so these files will just sit on your desktop until your hard drive dies

[New Cover] "Lumière à l'Aube" from the wonderful ‪Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, composed by the talented Lorien Testard! RT and shares greatly appreciated, thanks! ▶️ youtu.be/nYYW9rdRsnQ #expedition33 #ClairObscurExpedition33 #ClairObscur #COE33 #vgmcover #vgm #cover @expedition33.bsky.social

TFW you can't cover music from a game because you know everyone will just ask you to cover the sexy sax track

How does one overcome impostor syndrome when he founds out that he is, quite literally, an impostor? And when to add insult to injury, his sire -- whom he was created to destroy -- is already done and dusted? Taking F-Zero lore for a spin here... www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVZO...

What.... What exactly does morningfame think YouTube thinks my video is about, exactly..?

Someone asked: "do you read about the author of a work BEFORE reading the work, or AFTER?" And I thought: I usually don't *ever* read about the author. Instead, I'll read/watch what fans have said. ...And I think that being a YouTuber has conditioned me this way. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dej2...

new intro for @potatomcwhiskey.bsky.social

So, a guy posts on the YouTube Community Help Center asking for help with their suspended YouTube channel. They say they missed the 21-day appeal deadline, which is really weird, because there isn't such a thing as a 21 deadline for appeal of *suspensions*.

thinking about all the times people said, "The President can't do [insert thing here] to the economy" and thinking about how one man changed all of that.

Interesting little effect I pulled off in Premiere Pro. I'm getting seasick just looking at it!

For the past two weeks my old cover of dedede's theme has jumped back to the top of my most watched videos in the real time view... And it turns out everyone is actually looking for a "I just got a new saxophone" meme video ... The worst thing is ..I can totally here how you could mash those up
