Low-Frequency Blues

[Riotstarter100]

ich hate clean vocals

[aak711]

Did u sing that ur self???

wow

[19hawkeye98]

iTunes time?

[GeorgiaAmyMatin]

I have that mic :)

[Jex134]

Why blur your face? You're cute as hell.

[TheGuyInUrCloset]

lmao, is that a blu brand mic?

[Antuhes]

BRAVO!

[SupremeSplendor]

THE MISSING FREQUENCIES....

ARE TOO DAMN HIGH!

[buckfunster]

Bravo!

[KnaveMurdok]

So you do le maths, you are pretty handy with arty stuff and you sing as well? Way to make the rest of us look bad, gurl~! ^_____^

[blacksnowhitequeen]

This kind of reminds me of second Hand Faith by Emilie Autumn. Your voice here also reminds me of Emilie's voice in that song.

[deezynar]

Somebody, please, get this lady some high notes!

[Sk33t4u]

Amazing

[CoverDrummer94]

THIS IS GENIUS

[Croga15]

i find it funny that your microphone is the blue brand

[TheConundrumer]

is there a better quality mp3 available?

[s0m0c]

Genial.

[longnameguy]

Am i the only one who sees the microphone thing vaguely as a chain-chomp?

[sugararual]

in my opinion your voice has potential.but you really could use more practice,or maybe some lessons cuz the good thing about lessons is you get a professionals opinion,. just lettin you know.your great at hitting the notes, its just the way you go about saying the words. which part of the words you emphasize.sometimes it just sounds wrong the way it comes out and in some cases it takes a few trys of diff ways to say it,its good to take videos of urself while singing to improve.just some advice.

[57beachbum]

More of this with Khan!

[vortmax1981]

You're some kind of triple threat! Artist, singer, and mathematician!

[robman8855]

@vortmax1981 I bet shes waaayy more than just a triple threat :)

[JosephMusicOfficial]

Er... she can't sing.

[exactomacto]

@JosephMusicOfficial Her higher range sounds better, but...you know...her high notes were taken away.

[iluire]

is this art?haha maybe it is..

[YaddleUP]

@iluire not visual or dramatic arts, but musical art ;p

[ayetugger]

@iluire how isn't it art?

[iisgray]

@Myself, "So, were"*

[iisgray]

So, do were you wearing the ear piece for soundfeedback or are you hard of hearing? I'm very curious.

[SuperFluffyZora]

Nerdy Blues.... I *like* it!! :D

[SuperFluffyZora]

Nerdy Blues.... I *like* it!!1 :D

[SuperFluffyZora]

Nerdy Blues.... I *like* it!!1 :D

[maraisjf]

freakishly long arms!! haha

[MsSkrillexLover]

Holly shit..Did I just learn something? O_O

[kellierenshaw]

Dam she remids me of Fiona Apple!

[mman4441]

Girl, you blow me away. This video is amazing!

[jonowonoponosono]

hey, it's your face :D

[gunitakon]

@Vihart Girlllll HOW MANY TALENTS DO YOU HAVE ??????????

[kikamonju]

the title is an oxymoron (kind of) because the blues are high frequency light.

[freely87]

@kikamonju actually it means the more greenish blues and not the violetish blues but very good observation, i forgot blue was a high frequency color :D

[KimSimonsJr]

really good Vi! yay for you!

[gediminasII]

Cool clip,  amazing voice, love it

[sarmartay09]

You can sing, draw, teach in funny ways, your crazy, weird and funny. Man i wish i actually knew you. I love ppl with that combo.

[alessan]

Also, she's still absorbing the blue notes, they just get re-ejected when the electrons fall back to lower energy levels.

But hey, all models are oversimplified, so I'm wrong anyway.

[alessan]

It's meant to be low frequency blues... But she still sings above my vocal range. <.<

I need to work on extending that or something.

[Drmapashito]

You are crazy. We need more like you.

[norterrible]

what a fantastically written song. music reflects the mind that created it, and it's obvious from these lyrics that you have a wonderful mind. thanks for sharing

[albatross1988]

Don't worry, in a color spectrum of light he only took your reds and greens. :)

[rsphillips2]

this makes me think of fiona apple

[KarolineLaLune]

Like Fiona Apple. just lovely.

[denteck]

ok enough... I ve seen 5 videos... im gonna subscribe :D:D

[KleinerFoetus]

"I move away from the mic to do some math."

[dacc69]

Love it

[peterbaird100]

not only are you SUPER smart ( i'm 13 < i.e stupid ) funny, artistic and just plain weird you can also sing !!!! What can't you do ?

[Gameboygenius]

@peterbaird100 She can't draw a triangle where the sum is greater than 180 degrees- Or so I thought. And then she took an almost spherical apple and drew a triangle on the surface, starting out with two angles >90 degrees.

[peterbaird100]

@Gameboygenius and that proved you wrong ! ha

[Gameboygenius]

@peterbaird100 Yeah, I confess. Vi is better than me. <3

[peterbaird100]

@Gameboygenius well ye but shes a GENIUS !!!

[oetftw]

Vi, get another video up! We might suspect you are dead :(

[mentox]

Hey guys, she's blue so that means she only absorbs the lower frequency colors. She reflects the high frequency blue. So by making her blue you take away the high frequencies she absorbs.

[allgreatfictions]

@mentox ... Damn, that's brilliant.

[JesseJacksome]

Sounds like a nerdy Fiona Apple <3

[crayonsanddandelions]

Dear Vi, New videos? Please? We miss you and your charming lessons.

[babiTweEtsa]

I miss you in my life.

[SirQmmiseta]

her voice would suite high frequency better ;)

[gypsiecat1]

I need your awesme aproach to teaching back!!! I have knowledge withdraw!!! I'm shaking, I cant sleep, I can't eat! Its awful!!!

[razzamellon]

Holy shit, Are you Lisa Simpson...Think about it guys...

[fauxman]

I can't watch these. Now I'm sad about my girlfriend situation because she's not Vi Hart.

[sgalt1981]

You haven't posted anything knew forever Vi. We miss you!!

[M2brSaA]

Were you homeschooled? If not, how did you learn to think out of the box? Do you have siblings? Are they as confident as you?

[HagisMcMuffin]

The internet is incomplete without you. You've taken the unforgettable right out of my net.

[SuperGiraffeCool]

MAKE A NEW VIDEO OR ELSE!!!

[Diosukekun]

nice piano playing, but the singing just downright sucked. too much immitation of some kind of voice that just doesn't fit her

[TheRectangularVerb]

I have a crush on you.

[alex25811]

You are an amazing person and all that, but can we have another video please?

[WerewomanMOON]

QUE?! You are smart, can draw, are creative, can play the piano ánd sing..? Damn you woman! :D

[Qwillk]

....

AND you can sing.

xDD

[byebyebell1]

YOU ARE SO FLIPPING COOL.

please be my best friend. :)

[VanYYFan]

can you talk about complex numbers??? I mean it's imaginary but it's there because it simplifies the math.... like Fourier... There is no physical meaning for imaginary. HELPPP

[prgnify]

@Vihart Just watched all your videos. Not only is @noisyneil right, but it is also sad that I know for sure I won't ever meet a woman as awesome as you ;(

[kubarebo]

@prgnify You'd be surprised how many amazing women there are. Just look for them in right places.

[justpassnthru]

I would swear this is Fiona Apple !

Very clever song AND you have an awesome voice.

[Lunetca]

You make me want to be a more talented and productive person but here I am on my laptop instead of studying. You are intelligent. You can sing, draw, play instruments, and do math and I wouldn't be surprised of you were an outstanding athlete. At least I know you live life to it's fullest.

[NovaSpace888]

I love the blues.

You are so cool.

You are so talented.

Love your work.

Peace Vi.

Nova

[danHiBiKiFaNaTiC]

i really like you're singing.

[buzzy0016]

she can sing.she can draw.she's smat.i dont know about you people but she DEFINATLY earned my RESPECT.

[57beachbum]

Funny high notes with sounds are red and low notes are blue but in light red is low and blue is high.

[bewilderedtube]

Vihart, I was wondering... Is it possible that the color frequency of fruits (on the color and taste spectrum) coincide with sound? For example, I enjoy blueberries when I'm winding down with a shot of vodka. On the other hand, when I'm active in the morning, I enjoy peach smoothies made with orange juice. i.e.; blue sourish fruits at night, bright sweet orange in the morning.

okay.

[oddnamera]

what cant you do?

[SirJazz]

Let me sum up:

you are good in mathematics

you like to philosoph

YOU CAN BAKE CAKE!

you can play piano

you can sing

you can paint

[sailcat9]

@SirJazz She can bake pi, too. She is a Renaissance woman.

[writingsinsand]

I might be in love....

[CliveAtFive]

Physics Majors aren't too happy with you right now.

[AbbieWhoIsAwesome]

You are cool. DFTBA

[VideosByBlake]

IS THERE ANYTHING YOU'RE NOT AMAZING AT?

[TheDanthok]

Vi everything you do has such passion... Thank you for sharing your thoughts and talent with us. I would love to hear/see your thoughts on the Fibonacci Sequence and the golden ratio.

[Y2Ksnowglobe]

I feel like this lately. I sang the soprano 1 part in my choir, but this year I got moved and now I'm singing with the Alto 2's all the time.

[scampynoXD]

Vihart > Everybody else on YouTube combined

[ArentWeInAPickle]

Would asking you to marry me be too creepy?

[evanafter]

Now you put mp3 for sale and I be happy forever?

[finalcouragedrive1]

I love your tentacular arm movements.

[itaipee]

Vi , you are so adorable

[sylviaklassen]

Does it bother anyone else that it's the "low frequency blues", but blue has a much higher frequency than red and yellow? (Or am I just unusually nerdy?)

[murfy6661]

@sylviaklassen haha i think you're just a little nerdy :P

[ginnyisdacoolest]

@sylviaklassen Yeah, it bothered me too, but I'm willing to suspend my disbelief just this once :)

[vanimusgames]

@sylviaklassen It's called the "Low Frequency Blues" because the Low Frequencies have been removed, leaving only blue behind. It makes perfect sense- Great job Vihart.

[notfree25]

@sylviaklassen "blues" refer to the music genre

[antijelly]

@sylviaklassen if you notice, in the lyrics, she says " you've taken the reds and the yellows" So the "blues" Is all thats left

[brenoakiy]

@antijelly but blue has a higher frequency than red and yellow light

[antijelly]

Respond to this video... So shes singing low frequency blues because her high notes are gone. (reds and yellows) Even though blues are high, its sad, so its blues. so its low.. cuz the lows are gone... and...

yea.

[brenoakiy]

@antijelly wait, so both her low and her high frequency are gone?!

[antijelly]

@brenoakiy i don't know anymore. lol 

[ISBN1231]

@sylviaklassen I had assumed that was a pun. I might just be too faithful in her to expect her to make such a mistake, though...

[jemmerzem]

@sylviaklassen Low frequency reds wouldn't really be the same.

[MrIan3333]

:)

[smithiebird07]

Your singing is beautiful!

[Derfnnud]

Love your soul, in all its splendiferous wavelengths and frequencies.

[Ordoniel]

are you heartbroken?

[TR224]

i dont like the singing (aka. screaming)... but i do like the math videos

[VascoTelloRato]

@TR224 I dont like that commenting (aka insulting)... but i do like this video.

[theovids]

i only like your doodling in math class videos sorry :-(

[inkblackRose]

i am somehow reminded of winifred burkle. because awesome things are all reminiscent of whedon shows, you know?

i want an mp3.

[katiezonum]

How are you this talented? Seriously, there hasn't been any one of your videos that I haven't liked.

[thebadcarcrash]

that was great!

[PainAddict666]

Over 200 thumbs down? Jealous mathematicians?

[AdorableViolet]

This reminded me a little of the swimmers in Arcade Fire. 

[psychoVivi]

you are a multitalent... nothing more left to say *stunned* :O

[TheZombieGirrrl]

That. Was. Amazing. And by extension, so are you. :)

[Schlermie]

I gave this a thumbs up, because it's better than at least 2 sigma of all the other videos on YouTube, but normally your videos fall in the 6 sigma range.

[noisyneil]

i think everyone who watches your videos develops a bit of a crush.

[Keallei]

@noisyneil true story

[theuserofthissite]

@noisyneil that includes the girls.

[Iluvsugarmilk]

@noisyneil No durh

[BeanG007]

@noisyneil I ALREADY HAVE! Vihart girl..ur amazing 0.0

innovative and yet also reminiscent of sesame street productions. well done.

Please go HD

[JokerCrowe]

I think you need to talk to your parents; I'm pretty sure they gave you more than the regulation ammount of Amazingness when you were a kid. Leave some for the rest of us will ya!

:<

(my very strange way of saying "you're awesome". 'Awesome' as in the literal meaning of the word: awe inspiring)

[amiablehacker]

Oooh, nice use of pastels. =)

[pedwardsva]

Once again..science meets the best of art. Historically, mathematics and music have always been intertwined. But, you might just be establishing a nouveau Renaisance by getting people to see those roots. Maybe Pi can be solved musically? Put that in your clarinet and smoke it!

[Kynitt]

Vi you are my favourite person in the entire world

[xhado123]

There needs to be a 'love' button...

[Asdayasman]

In the preview window, looked like you were singing into a distressed, rotund, VERY black duck.

[Leibowitz]

very artsy. I like it...

[purpleukulele]

So brilliant

[shortazn97]

You...you have superpowers, don't you?

[Hellsyeahswimming]

but red and yellow are the low frequency colors

[papalosopher]

@Hellsyeahswimming D'OH!

[Hellsyeahswimming]

@papalosopher oops

[GeoRevilo]

I am upset your blog was messed up and I am just seeing this for the 1st time now....

[BewareOftheRichard]

FUCKING BRILLIANT

[TrueMangaAnimeLover]

If a prophet told me that this is what I would listen to this afternoon, they would be god. I swear I would've never guessed I would be watching the "Low-frequency Blues." You did it again Vi. You made your next video unpredictable.

[pathduck]

You're brilliant. Am jealous :)

[EvilStreaks]

I'm sorry I took the high notes.

[liquidefeline]

We need an mp3!

[JediApprentice42]

aaah I love this but I have one problem: blues are high frequency, reds are low. sorry, physics nerd. Otherwise, OMG AWESOME!

[coolsprus101]

Has someone been experimenting with drugs?

[virgilthemuse]

I really hope that this is an original song, because that would be awesome

[Telliria]

Sheet music?

[TzumB]

The 'Blue' snowball is a nice touch! ;)

[quintopia]

Someone give me 1000 dollars for joco cruise crazy. I need to be in the presence of awesomeness

[Vlogging4Jogging]

Love <3

[mtgal82]

love you! more doodle games!!!

[kitkatkid09]

omg that was so amaizing i cant even express how awesome it was... :D

[footube1969]

Folks. It's wordplay. Blues have connotations of low & cold (like ice), as opposed to the hot feel of reds & yellows (fire, the sun), even though their optical properties are the other way around.

Thumbs up, although I had hoped this video would involve a low pass filter.

[randacc42]

@angelwhite plus; she says the reds and the yellows are taken away - left are the low frequency greens and blues

[randacc42]

@angelwhite red is low frequency, low energy but long/high wavelength

I don't get the part about the reds and yellows, aren't those low? (I thought blue/purple were high, ultraviolet, and red/orange were low, infrared)
