You might have seen this clip going around the internet over the last couple of days. It's honestly the 'what color is that dress' of our time. (If you remember that from 3 years ago). 
 
So our team wanted to have a little fun and know what the Webroot Community had to say. Where do you stand?

    I heard Yanny maybe 3 times total, every other time it's been Laurel. Interesting stuff.

    No matter how many times I listen to it, I hear Yanny.
     
    For me, even the blue dress turned white, eventually. But I just don't hear 'Laurel'. :S

    This is very interesting. It looks like everyone here on the forum is hearing Yanny. 
     
    I thought that you were all nuts.

      So I called Colleen to listen to this and she said she hears the same, Yanny.
     
    I hear Laural. :S

    I hear Laurel over and over again the second time. But the first time I listened I heard Laurel a few times then I heard Yanni twice at the end. :S

    FWIW,  I hear it as Laurel... BTW, I have liked this artist, Steve Forbert for over 3 decades. I recall this song by him, ;)  -

    Really weird. I can only heard 'Yanny' on my phone and from multiple clips but I heard 'Laurel' on my TV the other night when one of the late night talk show host talked about it... strange.
