Rick Astley - Never gonna give you up | Weird Audio Illusion

- A few people asked for this so here it is I guess.
Can you hear the lyrics? Well it's just your ears tricking you. The only thing playing in this is piano. Weird isn't it?
To do this with any other song you need to convert an mp3 file to a midi file using the website below and then use anything that can play midi files. The program I used is called MIDITrail.

Sounds like a army marching to a rick roll what the heck
VanillaChocolateJ I actually heard that The Foo Fighters done something similar when they drove past the Westboro Baptist Church while blaring that out, and one of the WBC asswipes wanted them banned from America 😂
VanillaChocolateJ learn how to grammar. It is an army, not anarmy
VanillaChocolateJ An army marching, rickrolling and a broken piano/Someone having a seizure on a piano (Sorry if i offended people who have seizures =( i know someome that has had seizures)
rayann smih
It's an army. Not anarmy. Learn how to spell
Jessie Hart I do know how to spell (way better than you know how to use your grammar skills), it's just that my space bar either works excessively or hardly works at all. Sorry my computer it a piece of crap!
I listened to this too much, now I cannot avoid knowing what the words are.
Insert chain here: Ain't no strangers to love, you know rules and so do I!
A full commitement's what im thinking of, you wouldnt get this from any other guys
I~~ just wanna tell you how I'm feeling, gotta make you understand!!
not really, is just that you can actually hear the lyrics
GRiiM NevEr G-o- nNa rUN _a_rOund,, AaND huUrT uE!
this might be the early stages of a new type of communication
you spelt cancer wrong
Mabowkles
That’s not how it works. They would have to know what the message was before
Mabowkles XD
Communicates by singing
Midi communication
Everything I could ever ask for in life
Who's this handsome rascal?

Homosexuality My Dear Watson your name, pfp, and comment work beautifully together, i love it
I was your 700th like love meeeee
*I deeply hear somebody smashing their head on a keyboard...*
「TJ's Bizarre Adventure」 me 2
dammit, now i hear that
*why do I hear that too now?*
he’s probably like WTF IS THIS TYPE OF MUSIC AAAAH Smashes head on table
It's actually marching military people listening to the music
play this on a piano, rick roll _everyone_
Glitchy Pix yes ill just grow 3 arms out of my neck
Or use a midi interface on a piano, like a Disklavier device!!
Nah, you guys just have to smash your face against the keys (also, you'd need more than 3 hands to play this)
3? I think you'll need around 10 arms and 4 brains for this XD
i love your pvp cause im bisexual af
WHAT THE FUCK WTF IS TSHIS MAGIC/
Dat Kenneth yes
i think its something to do with our brain because you cant hear it that good if you havent heard the original song first
GamingNintendoWorld
I don't know about that. I've heard songs with this method that I've never head before and I can CLEARLY hear their lyrics. I'm pretty sure it's the fact that the sounds are produced in nearly the exact way we produce them with our voice.
Our voice is literally just an instrument after all...
It's called MIDI.
+GamingNintendoWorld Seriously, are you really that brainwashed? Please don't listen to other people talking about 'brains illusion', just as SergeOfBibek says - test any midi song that you firstly did not hear and you will hear the vocals, so.. I'm warning you - not meant to be offensive.
#NoOffense.
Very interesting how the piano can simulate human vocal cords, to some extent. If you had more keys, it would be even higher quality.
You mean : very interesting how our brains shape the voice like piano notes in the actual lyrics, singing
@@sparkcakes thanks
@@sparkcakes Nope
it's actually your brain. If you didn't recognize the song or lyrics, then it'd just sound like a piano mess.
You need first hear the song to actualy hear it like this
I rather like this new subgenre of memes and look forward to youtube giving me recommendations based on new uploads in the weeks to come.
I wish this was the most popular comment ever.
I year later, it's getting recommended again
I EVEN HEARD THE LILT IN "never gonna tell a lie" WTF
BeebaLazyVlogs lilt?
I heard the whole lyric
@@nurhid5742 Same!
@@that_girl_emily7349 Sorry I didn't reply when you wrote this two years ago, lol, I never got a notification. Pretty sure it's not actually called a lilt, I'm sure a lilt is different, but idk what it's actually called. The kind of . . . idk, yodel-y sound he makes when he sings "tell a lie"?
@@Beeba10 yeah! I noticed that too! Also when he sings the "IIIII" in the "And so do I" his tone actually rises!
OML imagine you get a bunch of piano players together each playing a different piano and doing their part to do this all synced and theres like a big huge fricking gathering so ur basically rick rolling everyone XD
Y e s
Someone do this
I am from the future but also the present that is sadly impossible now
It's weird because his voice becomes more hearable the longer you listen
I just got Rick Rolled... *by a piano....*
*I've found God..*
Pianos are evolving.
Uagahsi

@@pianopanicattack wait, hear me out

When he *didn’t* say “Never gonna give you up”
_I felt that._
Sounds like a piano and a radio went into my washing machine
Extremely quiet for some reason
LeafCloak
It's quiet so that it doesn't rape your ears
omg Rick Astley lives in this piano :|
Please do we are number one

People need to realise is that its not our brains filling in the vocals or any form of illusion... The MIDI is simply converting the vocal sounds into a musical tone which sounds as close as it possibly can to the actual vocals.
But the lyrics aren't there, your brain is filling that space
your brain trys to match this with whatevers in your memory
midi can't play vocals...
+natesquared it's not that it's playing the vocals. It's that it's turning the vocals into notes on the piano, which are converted well enough to be understood.
It's not a MIDI of the of the notes, it's a MIDI of the actual audio file of the entire song, vocals and all.
Yeah, the vocals might aswell be a combination of random notes. If you have the proper combinations you can make actual vocals even in a piano. And so this has the "combinations" of notes enough to make actual vocals. If someone who never heard the song before, I'm pretty sure they will hear the lyrics.
Meh, I don't know actually.
This is done by turning any Audio file into a midi
It's pretty obvious
_we've been rick-rolled_
FREE LYRICS
without the lyrics on screen
That MIDI converter website is actually very useful! My mom had no idea I was listening to 80s music! :D
MrCattyWolf send me a link plz
I my head, Ford Prefect looks a bit like Rick Astley.
This whole video made me think of Hitchhiker's Guide.
LOL ❤
omg lol
"Hey I play vocals!"
"You mean sing?"
"No"
**plays**
this sounds like the time when every kid in my church repeatedly pressed one key on the piano
crazy how most of these auditory illusions can semi replicate the singer’s tone and voice
the secretive rick roll: you can only truly rick roll someone if theyve heard the song before
*_you've been Rick rolled by a piano_*
Me: (Listening to this in class)
Bully: Hah! lets see what the nerd is listening to!
*Unholy piano sounds*
Bully: (slowly plugs back in headphones)
I’m getting a weird nostalgia effect?
Even on a piano I can still hear him clearly
*there is no escape*
Sounds like Daft Punk doing a cover of it.
The ‘voice’ sounds like Rick Astley but with loads of auto tune on.
This...is.....CRAZY! Can anyone else hear ricks voice! (Rick rolll everyone)
That's exactly what A1 Music said is only piano and no Rick
i don't even remember most of the lyrics and i hear it all
lol im doing this song for a science project
It's less 'illusion' and more 'a really weird quantization'. The lyrics *are* there. They're just quantized into piano notes.
So, what kind of music do you like?
Me: *Well...*
I’m sick of these clickbait titles, but anyways, this is what I needed in life.
Clickbait?
You have 3 minutes and 31seconds to live
Me:
Wise choice sir, wise choice :")
Rick-rolling before death is the best! You can Rick-rolling roll the doctor too!
you've made my favourite song musical piece infinitely better, thank you kind sir
What me wonders is: All tones seem to be equaly loud. I thougt to represent a sound/voice with frequency-analysis (as here we have in principle) dynamics would be very important. In general decreasing with the overtones. So it could be possible for a pianovirtuoso to play the voice fairly on piano. Limited to about 8 to 10 tones of ocourse.
Yooo keep doing this
Beautiful
Why does this guy not have at least 1 mill subs... these are creepy and AMAZING!!!! you earned another subscriber (I'm number 620)...
The reason this happens is because the digital piano is playing about 20 notes at one to capture all the tones of the human voice making a certain sound. Our voices are never just one note, but a sort of vibrato. By playing this many notes at once, it's able to capture that effect.
This is by far the highest quality voice in have ever heard on one of these pianos auditory illusions. At some parts it does sound like Rick actually talking
Girl: what’s your taste in music?
Me: it’s complicated...
Converted to midi.
I like it 👍
here's a small explanation(that i learnt from The Science Elf).
Basically if you sum up a bunch of sine waves(wobbly fellas) you can more or less build any wave(that's called fourier transform). This is pretty much the same thing there, but instead of sine waves they're using piano noises.
Only song like this that it took my brain quite a while to even understand but then when I went back it all made sense lol
the around from run around and the lie sounds so cool
love it
Random person: What kind of music do you like?
Me: *It's complicated*
That drum beat is amazing!
Technically, everything in the following list just Rickrolled me *all at the same time:*
Rick Astley
a Piano
God (knows everything that has happened and will happen, and so knew that creating the universe would lead to this rickroll)
A Multibillion-Dollar Company (google owns youtube)
A Computer
Physics
My Brain (which is imagining a rickroll that isn't there)
A UA-camr
A Language
Mathematics
Fate
The Space-Time Continuum (it existing allows everything to happen)
My Hand (clicked on video)
Light (allowed me to see the video's thumbnail and click on it)
[maybe a few more]

I'm taking a liking to this new genre of music
I get my love of 1970s - 1980s music from my dad and this is one of them
the fact that this piano is actually playing words is mindblowing
It's 4:00 in the morning, and I'm up watching this... totally content with my life and where I'm at
I love these things.
I've heard this song so many times that this sounds like normal words
My favorite song.
I love it even more now.
I hear "you know the rules, so i do" PERFECTLY
LMAO
Teacher: No talking in class.
I finally have a solution
I like how its sounds
My brain is thinking the lyrics and it really came out
I listened to this while doing homework i love it i mean im not gonna pass my exam at this rate but who cares this is awesome
Now this is epic
"Never gonna make you cry"
Liar. I cried at this
The voice from my mind sounds like if I sang Never Gonna Give You Up.. mildly good
This kinda stuff creeps me out, not because of the words, but instead because of the chaos
Music for my brain
Cool
It took my a while to realize it was a voice but that really cool
unlike the all star one, this one i only hear beating up a piano and some parts i can hear the vocals
wait this is actually really cool
audio illusion or the aftermath of being rick rolled too many times
Did youtube just rick role me... With a piano
You know the rules, and so do iiiiiaaAaAAaAA...
I've listend an unhealthy amount of this song 'cause the lyrics are clear to me.
The voices!!!!!!😮
holy shit, i can hear it so well
When you and your squad want to rick roll people but all you have is a piano
This is exactly what mobile discord calls sound like
We have been rickrolled by the weird audio illusion
All sounds are basically combinations of sine waves, so I'm not too surprised. In a way, I guess it's a very rudimentary type of Fourier series
You can faintly hear the actual song in the background (most people will not hear it) but it's faint enough to give words to the piano we are listening to, neat trick but not good enough to fool everyone
Me to my friend: *sends link*
Friend: what's this?
Me: nothing.
Yay!
*I just realized that the Piano is playing absolute Gibberish and my brain is just Rick Rolling me.*
This is the weirdest audio to MIDI file ever.
When your TV speaker is busted
if you nevee heard the actual song would you understand the lyrics or will it sound like mashed up piano sounds
In celebration of this video's one-year anniversary (I know I'm a little late, be quiet), I'd like to remind everyone that this is, to some extent, how devices generate sound effects.
I'VE BEEN WATCHING TOO MANY DANK MEMES AND I THINK MY PIANO IS TALKING TO ME
The rhythm was totally fucking with me for a good minute and I couldn't hear the voice but than i figured out the pattern and I can't unhear his voice
I came here from a rick roll, but this is being saved. Best one ever.
