I just listened to this for the first time(been hearing about it for a few days now) and all I hear is Laurel. Also listened to the clips Art linked and again all I hear is Laurel with some weird sound effects in the background as the boost is swept through. Maybe it is my listening device.. a laptop which has pretty poor speakers, but maybe that limited bandwidth filters out some of distractions that make people hear other things.

Until I downloaded the sound clip into my DAW, I had only heard Yanni whether on my phone, my lap top or my stereo with sub. Even on my DAW I have to manipulate the EQ quite bit to be able to hear Laurel.  Chris only hears Laurel through the same devices.

If you play it backwards, it says "John Lennon is the Devil".

I thought it was Yoko Ono's voice saying "I buried Paul".

I heard that Yanni only hears laurel

Knock Knock...

Who's there?.....

Laurel.

Yanny who?......

    (shamelessly stolen from a post on FB).

Yeah I'm the same as a few people on here that I only ever here Laurel, no mater what device I have listened to it on. It screws with my head how anyone could possibly hear anything different, it seems so obviously Laurel to me.

I'm listening through headphones and I'm not hearing either. To me it sounds like "Yowie".

On the very first listen, I heard "Yanni." A few subsequent listens, and I could clearly hear the over (or under?) tones that made up the "Laurel" portion, but my brain still gravitated to "Yanni"   After viewing Art's DAW clip, I clearly hear that it's saying both, and can hear both in the 100% speed.  It's fascinating how one person's brain latches onto the higher register and another person's brain gravitates to the low.

Yes - I can hear both if I set the EQ or speed just right. I actually can then hear LAURNEE - a blend of the 2.

I can't hear Yanni at all no matter what I do, only Laurel with some weird HF artifacts approximating 64kbps mp3 files. Perhaps an alien in the background saying weird things that start with the 'Y' sound.
