A little bit of a silly one for /c/Frisson today. This one absolutely took me by surprise. I know it's an AI cover, but hear me out. Somehow this tiny little protist sang with more emotion than I ever thought would be possible coming from a computer.

Is it silly? Absolutely. Is it cursed? God yes, it's unforgivably cursed. But somehow it still tickles whatever nerve gives me goosebumps when Plankton screams his little heart out. Good Lord forgive me for what I just wrote.

The entire song is absolutely amazing. The part that gets me is from the buildup beginning at 3:17.

This song gives me major frisson, especially with headphones. One of my absolute favorites of all time. Found it while listening to Isaac Arthur videos a while back.

I am not sure if this is Frisson or just sad, but this kind of content always gets me. God damn it.
