    I still can't hear Laurel unless it's slowed down/lower pitch.

    Haha, this stuff makes me laugh. Honestly, I hear both Yanny and Laurel simultaneously. I can also separate them to hear each of them individually.

    I only hear Yanny, I have no idea how people hear Laurel!
    Same with the dress, I don't know how you can call that white and gold. I've tried and it's impossible :laughing:

    I heard Yuri, but I can also hear Yanny and Laurel if I listen closely. I can also separate the two. I'm pretty sure my mind fused the two original taking the n and y from Yanny and the u and r from Laurel to make Yuri.

    It's saying both and honestly it sounds like two different voices. I can hear a higher voice saying "Yanny" and a lower voice saying "Laurel", just not at the same time.
