Not everyone. Where am I supposed to have heard this before?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (2 children)

It's in Minecraft?

But it's been in indie films since forever, and big films too.

E.g. https://youtu.be/X5fhZomlWb4?si=TlY0RwrYJDcELL3i

This from the same musical trilogy, Queens Gambit.

So yeah, I've never actually played Minecraft before, it's a few generations after I would have been the prime age to play it.

Well then you're of a generation that heard it in films.

Royal Tenenbaums, man on a wire...

So it’s not quite the version you played and it seems to be from older films. If I’ve heard it, I don’t recognize it and wouldn’t be able to point it out but I also didn’t play Minecraft that much.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

I've heard it in random YT videos since at least 2013. Down The Rabbit Hole used it as a background track.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I've also never heard this song before.

[–] [email protected] -3 points 11 months ago

Yeah… it’s not even that good, imo.
