Yanny or Laurel?!

[CaliforniaDream]

AIBU to think that anyone who hears Laurel is playing a practical joke? It's definitely yanny!

Played the clip about 10 times and I can only hear Yanny.

DH can only hear Laurel.

This is weird!

I thought this was going to be a “which of these two names should I call my baby” thread!

I can only hear Yanny. Tried listening on repeat, with head by speaker, with earphones in, still don’t get any hint of laurel.

If you want to see how the brain gets confused with what it hears vs what it sees, watch this:

Try eyes open and eyes closed.

It must be a joke! I’ve clearly heard both when playing them at different times.

Yanny. Every time. But I keep trying to force myself to hear Laurel and it doesn’t work.

Also just showed DH pics of the shoe and dress.

I see Grey and Blue/Turquoise for the shoe and white and gold for the dress.

He seems Pink and White for the shoe and black and blue for the dress.

This might end us.

Laurel for me.

I've been listening to this on and off all day and can only hear Yanny. However, I just listened to ShackUp's sound clip with a different frequency, and almost shit myself as LAUREL boomed out of my phone

DP heard Gerry

argh. now i hear Laurel. what is going on!!!

Laurel

I hear laurel. My three year old hears yeary. Not yanny.

Apparently it IS actually laurel though.

I can hear “yaaaaary” with a long a

All I heard today was yanny but just played it to DH and can only hear laurel

Me: yanny
Dh: laurel
Ds: yanny
Dd: yanny

There must be something wrong with dh's ears.

Both dh and i hear Yenny
dd 20 hears Laurel

I don't hear either, I hear Eee-I. What on earth is wrong with me?!?!

I think it's more like Yanny but with a very drawn-out, American A - more like "ye-a-ny."

Yanny but my husband hears laurel. So odd!

I can only hear Yanny. I was trying so hard to hear Laurel, but nope it wasn't there

I can hear both

Listened on my PC and on my phone and heard Yanny as described by Drama. Played it to DH on my phone and he heard the same. Whilst I was out, he played it on his PC and heard Laurel.
Since then, he's recorded it and played it back to me, shifting the frequencies and I then heard both. There's a point where the one (Yanny) eclipses the other, but if you cut out the high frequencies then you can only hear Laurel.

I didn't know my high frequency hearing was good as I used to be able to hear bats in the garden and now I can't.

Definitely laurel. I tried making myself concentrate on a possible yannin but nope, it wasn’t there.

Laurel. Anyone who can hear Yanny is clearly bonkers...

I heard yanny this morning, listened again this evening and it was laurel then I listened again and it was yanny yanny yanny and changed halfway through to laurel... I'm now hearing laurel again but I've heard both,
