    Gotta give the audience some credit though....this is in Lithuania! THEY STILL SOUND GREAT! I bet many don't even speak English...in fact you can hear areas where they didn't quite know the exact words, but they went for it anyway!

      Pretty much most Lithuanians can speak English... to be honest singing wise.. Lithuanians, as well as Estonians and Latvians have this singing culture.. they all pretty much sing in choirs throughout school from 1st grade until college.

      Because the human voice is raspy, wheezy and wet? When people start singing I need my noise cancelling headphones.
      Machinery sounds soothing, but humans sound like someone is hurting a small animal. I will never understand how normies can just listen to singing without getting a migraine.

    I think the most interesting thing for me is the last note of the song. The way the audience splits into a harmony; one half of them following the original melody of the song, and the other half singing the note Bobby sings. Knowing Bobby, you know that was definitely intentional. Such a creative man!

      @althealligator1467 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Actually Booby is singing the 5th, but you can hear the audience sing a 1st _and_ a 3rd! (And also potentially a 5th like Bobby but I can't hear it) He let the audience actually make the chord resolved, otherwise his own note would be somewhat ambiguous; the melody really ends on the 1st, so I'm not sure why anyone is even singing a third, but it's awesome!
      Edit: ain't no way I wrote "Booby" lol
