I was searching for this when the song first dropped lol

[@levibutinroblox477]

perfect loop 10/10

[@DeanokL]

It feels like some random producer from the a K-POP/J-POP label was like “I hate how simple modern pop is, let’s go more polyphonic but alternative. 1st search result on Google lead to Polyphia. That label just bought one of those tracks and adapted it to contain vocals. It’s even more obvious where the first few lines of the song contains a line “I can’t speak it’s all phonetic” - the lyricist was taking the piss out so much hahah

[@ltbq]

that's...definitely not what happened lmao

[@Djitterbug]

[@raikawa1189]

lmao the KZbin emojis always get me they look so ridiculous😭😭

[@dwonner]

so the intro is just the hard part?!?!?!

[@hahanosrryggl223]

Polyphia wouldn't have collabed with Sophia Black if they didn't like her work, and wouldn't have put the song out if they didn't like her lyrics, so why insult her? They'd take her side, you're not complimenting them by saying it's better with just them Like I fucking love the clean instrumental, but these comments are braindead

[@Zen.Finnson]

I mean I personally prefer it without her, the band is so insanely tight. But having her on it definitely helps it appeal to a more mainstream “pop” audience because this music generally isn’t very suited towards a larger audience. I don’t think having her on it is a bad thing, but this is awesome.

[@sanabanana83]

Thank you. I like to think of her vocals as another instrument. There are parts of the song where she's carrying the melody, and it definitely feels like there's something missing without her. I do like this instrumental, because it helps me really appreciate the bass, but Sophia completes this song.

[@jackc.5271]

Brain dead is a really strong word to use here, it's just people saying they like the song better without vocals. Sophia is a good singer, I just strongly dislike the tiktok dojacat inspired type of music, and that is exactly how she chooses to sing. It's a matter of preference, nobody is "brain dead" for having an opinion about it.

[@kkensaa]

the instrumental was taken from the CDs bro this was a bonus track

[@raikawa1189]

The singer is good but idk I guess I just prefer it without

[@kekw-b2h]

The heck you literally ruined it for me bruh

[@a0zuniverse]

This comment section is so funny lol. The narrative of “Sophia Black ruined this song” is nonsensical. Polyphia invited her onto the song and mixed and edited her vocals, so the creative control was on them. When they asked Steve Vai to do a solo on Ego Death, they edited it to the point where he said he couldn’t even recognize it anymore. Ultimately they’re not shy about changing shit they don’t like and they have the final say over production. I also find it interesting that the lyrics/vocals kind of match the Polyphia playing style. Like Polyphia is known for taking simple pop chord progressions and melodies and then making them sound great through elaborate instrumentation and playing. Similarly, Sophia is a very talented vocalist reciting lyrics that are very simple (e.g. reciting the entire alphabet).

@@ZeonplayzYt I didn't call the people soulless, the track feels soulless because the instrumentals were built around her vocals so obviously there would be a lot of empty space in this version

[@arifart]

omg! better than the original version

[@hldr4345]

Everyone talking about how this is so much better than the original, and while I agree, the reason it is better is because the original's production is so extremely cluttered because of the vocal melody overlapping with the Drums and Guitars that the groove and melody sound like a total mess. it's not Sophia's fault, it's the absolutely abysmal mixing and vocal engineering, which are the label and the band's responsibility.

[@jackallandyard7364]

Holy shit thank you 😂😂 i hate the vocal and lyrics so much, especially in the chorus since it's overlapping with the guitar melody
