@@Malinda I was thinking those exact words! I am playing catch up on this season of "the voice" and saw two Alanis songs done last night... Please keep doing what you do! You're a light set on a hill!

Honestly love the fact that Malinda's hair flick changes the hair style to encapsulate the major/minor contrast lmao. Love it almost as much as the music itself
“Spelling is fun.” Implied spelling is actually forced torture that we brainwash you into believing is fun while also turning you into a zombie and it was EVERYTHING!

I’m so glad you actually put a major song to minor and even got the Gregory Brothers!!!!! Please excuse me, I’m gonna be fangirling for about........1 hour and 15 minutes. Maybe 20 minutes
I, personally, love harmonic minor scale the most. The music I compose typically utilizes this scale and I've amassed hundreds of songs using harmonic minor scale. It's aural euphoria for me :). Love hearing minor versions of music in general. Thank you!!
Well it depends... "Happy birthday" in minor for example. You can't play it in natural minor (aeolean) or harmonic minor only. You have to start the song in harmonic minor and end it in natural minor.
The minor tone of the song is only half of what makes it creepy. The faces!!!! The hair covering half of her face contributed to the creepy vibe and tbh...I am so here for it!
All i can say is WOW !!!! this song should be a chart buster, both on key & off key in the same song, this music & lyric pattern is no unique, so refreshing !! so original !!! I LOVE IT !!!
Coupling the minor arrangement with the brilliant scary facial expressions was utter song video bliss. Thank you for the entertainment. I seriously needed the laughter this brought me today.
I honestly found the lyrics a tad creepy to begin with, but omg you make it so much worse! (In the best way possible of course) And you just totally nail the creepy slightly unhinged expressions!
This is very creative! Usually a lot of videos with a similar format switch an entire song into a major/minor key. The variation that comes from switching back and fourth between keys is much more interesting!
Okay, so I thought about it and here's the plot I came up with: This might be a story about possessive wife and her husband. So the wife is always taking control over him and is forcing him to do a lot of things, even learning more, (the part that says "Spelling is fun") under the cover of convincing him that it's gonna be fun, because she wants an intelligent man. The husband is always agreeing to everything because he doesn't want to lose his loved one, when in the meantime she is threatening him that she would leave if he didn't do as she says (the part that says "I promise that you'll never find another like me") So yeah... Sometimes I have weird thoughts and ideas and this is one of it, i guess 😂😅
Oh god your dead voice "spelling is fun" is everything I needed in life
yes
the way she said it with a straight face, though.
James Stark: Ben Edition yeah. I loved it.
Yes
Yes 😂
Why is the minor giving me Britney Spears vibes??? 😂
LITERALLY SAME it's like Brittney meets Alanis Morrisette!
@@Malinda I was thinking those exact words! I am playing catch up on this season of "the voice" and saw two Alanis songs done last night...
Please keep doing what you do! You're a light set on a hill!
@@Malinda exactly!! I really love this one by the way. Thank you for being amazing and giving me the inspiration to sing again!!
I thought the exact same thing.
yes
This song changed vibes as fast as I can change moods
Same though. 😂
Kinda like me on period 😂
that's a big *mood*
mood, indeed~!
Adolescence...
playing bass with a drumstick is a new meta I missed?
Wait how the f-
@ Ryan Ross played *GUITAR* with a drumstick, but you're not wrong
@ eh, fair point.
plus, Ryro is awesome, so I'm not gonna argue with you
ryro is awesome
I played my violin with a sheet of paper once...
Major: happy pre-teen, goin to Claire's and having sleep overs
Minor: rebellious teenage emo phase, walking into hot topic for an outfit for the black veil brides concert this weekend
Sooo Taylor vs Brendon??
I'm somehow both at the same time.
@@emilydarnell4808 I am too. And I'm 18... I got issues.
Rachel M emo doesnt necessarily mean sad its just a fashion and music style
100%
us before coffee vs. us after coffee. THANKS FOR HAVING US 💖🙏🙏🙏🙏
This is amazing, I love the haunted vibes
I'm gonna sing this version for my Halloween performance!!!!
@@sarawayne4310 he's a big channel
@@chloieserrano108 I know. What do you mean?
@@sarawayne4310 wut I just said it got a problem??
Minor has insane Toxic vibes to it and I love it so much
Sounds like a Britney Spears song
Probably the key that gives you the idea..
This week we get not only a collab but also a Britney Spears impression😂
NEXT WEEK TRANSLATE IT
yay 66 likes
MALINDA TRANSLATE THIS
Yessssssssssssss
Alternative Title “New Taylor and Old Taylor battling it out for Taylor’s soul”
Maiah Alice That would go along with What Am I Doing? What Do I Do To Me? See what you did? See what I did? What am I doing?
I think, as they say, dark taylor was just a phase, or a branch out. After all, hey kids spelling is fun was just a year ago.
Yes i know it was a joke
I love this
Oh my god I'm shook by how differently these lyrics can be interpreted lol.
RIGHT?! The minor key really helps reveal how psycho some of them sound if you think about themoutside the context of a bubbly pop song...
s p e l l i n g i s f u n 😱😱😱
Someone go spam Brendon's twitch chat with this, thank you. He NEEDS to see this.
He's too busy playing Fortnite right now.
James Stark: Ben Edition wait, Brendon is on Twitch?
@@woozleproductions9760 yep.
Twitch.tv/brendonurie
But then how do we get it to Taylor?
Has he seen it?
That guy in the back...
I relate.
Major: HIGH HOPES!! SHAKE IT OFF!
Minor: look at what sins you made me write
Oh mai GOD
Taylor Swift: Spelling is FUN!!🎉
Malinda: I'm gonna sing the truth
Honestly love the fact that Malinda's hair flick changes the hair style to encapsulate the major/minor contrast lmao. Love it almost as much as the music itself
Okay, I officially like this better than the original.
James Stark: Ben Edition soooo muuuuucchhhh 😱😱😱
I like this so much more in all ways except for the fact that there’s no Brendon
I like the minor key version better.
James Stark: Ben Edition right!?
@@macm.3889 Time to spam his Twitch with this video
The minor version gives the song some character, don't you think?
Malinda sounds beautiful even when she’s trying to sound terrifying!! HAHAHA
Love you, Malinda!!:)
‘Fun’ishment Time Yes! Truly a beauty. I will never be scared unless she pulls a knife or gun on me.
The scary/dead eyes the Gregory Bothers have during the minor parts XD
also the way you said ''Spelling is fun'' made me lol so hard for some reason
The "lol" part led me to a dirty thought.
*Thanks, i hate it*
ฅ'ω'ฅ A cat using social media. ฅ'ω'ฅ OH GOD... why?! 😂
"I promise that you'll never find another like me...because I've locked all the doors and you are NEVER LEAVING."

Good job managing to NOT BLINK AT ALL.
She is the female Hotch
“Spelling is fun.” Implied spelling is actually forced torture that we brainwash you into believing is fun while also turning you into a zombie and it was EVERYTHING!
*brendon should react hehe*
Wait...was that guy playing guitar with a drumstick?
Lila Parisu it’s a bass lol but yes
OML IT WASNT JUST ME THAT REALIZED THAT
Dont question it

I like the visual change when you go between the keys. It helps to conceptualise how the key makes such a difference
when they said ‘you’re the only like you’ in minor it sounded like a low-key death threat
The fact that they kept the moment when one of the Brother lost his cap made this perfect video just flawless.
If ME! Was released in the Reputation era
UUUUHHHHH Can we please PLEASE get a whole version of the minor version?! Pretty pretty please?!
Good side and dark side of Taylor, and brendon
Major=ME! Taylor and High Hopes Brendon
Minor=reputation Taylor and 2005 Brendon
I’m so glad you actually put a major song to minor and even got the Gregory Brothers!!!!! Please excuse me, I’m gonna be fangirling for about........1 hour and 15 minutes. Maybe 20 minutes
Therapist: "It's okay, Minor Key Malinda isn't real...she can't hurt you"
Minor Key Malinda:
Omg the major is my best friend and the minor is me being dark and gloomy and he's trying to be all sunshine
I, personally, love harmonic minor scale the most. The music I compose typically utilizes this scale and I've amassed hundreds of songs using harmonic minor scale. It's aural euphoria for me :). Love hearing minor versions of music in general. Thank you!!
Almost all of the songs I’ve created on GarageBand are in minor keys, except for a few. Whoops.
Same here. It's hauntingly beautiful.
Well it depends... "Happy birthday" in minor for example. You can't play it in natural minor (aeolean) or harmonic minor only. You have to start the song in harmonic minor and end it in natural minor.
I love that he's playing the guitar with a drumstick.
It's amazing how half a step can change literally everything
_"And when we had that fight out in the rain"_
*_I WANT THE MINOR ON THE MERCH_*
I would SO buy a copy of this song COMPLETELY in Minor
Your "Spelling is fun" sounds like me saying school is fun.
The minor key malinda had me shook😱
The minor tone of the song is only half of what makes it creepy. The faces!!!! The hair covering half of her face contributed to the creepy vibe and tbh...I am so here for it!
This was like the opening sequence of the official video, when the snake turns into butterflies - but here the singers are doing the tranformation
All i can say is WOW !!!! this song should be a chart buster, both on key & off key in the same song, this music & lyric pattern is no unique, so refreshing !! so original !!! I LOVE IT !!!
Why do these lyrics fit both so well with each sounds? Taylor tricked us
That was the most depressed "spelling is fun" I've ever heard XD
Major: Pray For The Wicked
Minor: Every album before Pray For The Wicked
Oml I need a full minor version, I love the vibe
Me before my period v.s. me on my period.
(Only the ladies understand)
Coupling the minor arrangement with the brilliant scary facial expressions was utter song video bliss. Thank you for the entertainment. I seriously needed the laughter this brought me today.
I honestly found the lyrics a tad creepy to begin with, but omg you make it so much worse! (In the best way possible of course) And you just totally nail the creepy slightly unhinged expressions!
Minor key changes any happy song to a more depressing or terrifying one and this video is one of them...
I cannot 😂😂😂 I completely lost it when: “hey kids... spelling is fun...”
The GREGORY BROTHERS!? Could you mean the geniuses behind Chicken Attack!? That’s so cool!!!!!
Yeah, when I was listening to the the original I was thinking “These lyrics sound like a psycho girl.”
I LOVE Major/Minor transpositions! ♡♡♡♡
Major: Taylor Swift
Minor: Panic! At The Disco
Love how your faces change between major and minor!!
Major: I know I messed up but we should stay, because I'm the best out there
Minor: A creepily obsessive partner who can't let go
WOW! I'm awestruck at your ability to change styles to another genre so convincingly, Malinda. I don't know any other performer who can do that.
Jacob Roberts The Gregory Brothers do it quite well too. They have a series called Happy Sad Songs.
*AND I PROMISE NOBODY WILL EVER LOVE YOU LIKE ME* ☠️
Malinda can sing literally ANYTHING!!! How??????
Whenever I hear this on the radio I can't help but think of this version now.
Minor sounds kinda like something from the Adams family!!
Her hair slowly gets more messed up
I got whiplash from how quick it changes.
This should DEFINITELY be a Translate Fail song too!! Please!
This is very creative! Usually a lot of videos with a similar format switch an entire song into a major/minor key. The variation that comes from switching back and fourth between keys is much more interesting!
it srsly sounds so much better in minor, i need a full minor version!!
The deadpan face in the minor by the guy on the guitar is absolutely fucking hilarious.
Is it weird that I love songs that are minor and have clashing harmony
Major version: Taylor and Brendon from ME! video
Minor version: Taylor from Reputation and Brendon from Emperor's new clothes.
Wow... Musical whiplash. So well done! Chirpy/preppy suddenly swaps to almost goth. I like it....
this is so cool! also right there 1:43 i thought the fact that your hair was in your face was very funny
I started dying of laughter at the first switch
Are we 100% sure that Me! isn't a song about a dystopian world full of clones? I absolutely loved it!
MALINDA; What a great re-Tayloring of the original.
1:00 ohmygoodness that transition from minor to major was outstanding woahhh
I bet y’all are/were choir kids
We love to do this kind of thing
"Hey, kids spelling is FUN" sounds so hilarious! lol, thanks for the laugh!
It’s like so sweet and then it goes to dark and back and forth.
That was.....scary? Unnerving? Beautiful?
the minor is sort of like a creepy possessive High School Musical song
1:58 to 2:00 sounds like a spelling teacher that whispers to the kids and is fed up with their job
I have always loved minor key, so this is just improving the song for me
I love the original though
why is this an actual amazing art piece--the minor parts gave me lIFE goodness y'all are so talented
Am I the only one who noticed the guy in the back strumming the guitar with a drumstick?
nope.
It’s a bass lol but I noticed it too
@@keegan6448 I have big respect for you stranger. You know what a bass is :') lmao
That sounds sarcastic but like it really does make me happy when people know the difference
@Menchie omg I should've known my friend plays bass lol
This makes me this of Don't Make Me, how you switched from bright and happy to dark and evil. This was definitely something I didn't know I needed.
Haha loved it Malinda!! #Edgy and #Peppy
Malinda can seriously pull of the extremely serious face
Actually, this is a pretty great cover independent of being a joke.
Well I’m terrified. I’m gonna watch the Wholesome song now to lighten myself up now.
I feel like this song has some kind of hidden message 😂😂😂
I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE proof that minor anything is sooo much better than the major
Wowzer! That is literally my only two moods!
Wow Miss M. So much incredible talent 💎💎💎💎💎
That guy with the keyboard looks like Shawn Spencer from Psych
Not only is this an awesome idea but the minor key sounds so cool!!!
I love this so much. This sounds kinda bipolar lol 😂
Okay, so I thought about it and here's the plot I came up with:
This might be a story about possessive wife and her husband. So the wife is always taking control over him and is forcing him to do a lot of things, even learning more, (the part that says "Spelling is fun") under the cover of convincing him that it's gonna be fun, because she wants an intelligent man. The husband is always agreeing to everything because he doesn't want to lose his loved one, when in the meantime she is threatening him that she would leave if he didn't do as she says (the part that says "I promise that you'll never find another like me")
So yeah... Sometimes I have weird thoughts and ideas and this is one of it, i guess 😂😅
