This is the thing that drives me nuts more than anything else. I can actually still find answers on Google, but when I'm trying to find car parts for my "Buick Lacrosse" NO I DON'T WANT A HONDA WATER PUMP, I'M NEVER GOING TO BUY THAT, IT'S NOT A LEGITIMATE SUBSTITUTE. It's so flipping infuriating because there's zero chance I will purchase the promoted items--it's not a case of making it look more attractive, or giving me a better price--the price could be zero and I still wouldn't want parts that do not fit my car. They have zero chance of making a sale this way unless they trip me up and trick me into buying it by spamming it at me. It's moronic. And it just keeps happening. Meanwhile, Google can generally find answers to my computer questions reasonably fast.

okay yeah I think we got it. don't you worry, ma'am. we've got plenty of AI-written Top Ten lists of best car *engines* *currently* for sale in your *state.* happy to help!

"yes i know about the quotes and the OR, it's all ass" is such a fucking vibe lol

The removal of reverse image searching is actually criminal. It's blatant they don't have the interest of what's best for users

I was half-expecting another homage to Bo Burnham, but this was excellent all the same. Your animations are always a delight.

holy shit, an awesome 3D animation and creative singing. What more can a subscriber want from this channel :O

youtubes search engine is also broken as hell they have made it impossible to find any videos before the year 2018

I have to add quotation marks to words to make sure they're included in searches and more often than not Google lists ads first This is some real dystopic future trash

When the video started I was just like, "what a cute song!" I was not prepared for the 3rd act twist.

They don't want you to find what you need, anymore. They want you to find what is best for their marketing needs.

Getting an ad for Google before this video was absolutely perfect.

Well, I would recommend Ecosia, I find the search engine works fine. On a relevant note, what a beautifully sung song and animated art piece!

i love how you put finger-print textures on the furniture and other set pieces!! makes it look hand-made!

Very cool and trippy! I like how you take advantage of the medium by making it go from a "normal" bedroom video to all futuristic and abstract

I didn't realize how often I specifically looked for Reddit threads in order to get a human answer to a question until Reddit had that blackout a few weeks ago. I felt like I was back in the 90s, when people still had weird pointless questions in their head and we just had to live with not knowing if a particular strategy in a video game was viable or a waste of time unless we tried it ourselves.

I noticed it quite awhile ago but it didn't really hit home how bad it had gotten and just how much of an impact it was until I realized I'd taken to using _youtube_ as a search engine

I love your aesthetic, humor, style! Please keep it going for everyone´s sake!

Okay adding "reddit" to every search hit me so damn hard lol. Only way

This is by far the greatest/strangest video I have seen this year. And it combines three of my favorite things. Apologies, space and Clay Animation.❤️👍🏻👊🏻

I've been screaming this to the void for months. Thank you for giving artistic expression to my plight.

The difference between the other "recent Ukelele performance on KZread" and this is night and day. SavannahXYZ I love you, so make an album already god damn it!

TBH I thought I was the only one with issues with search engines lately.

the little headtilt on 'it's all ass' is a really nice touch!

KZread search is just as bad if not worse. You can look up the exact title of the video and not find it. It's infuriating. You can look up channels and instead find news videos about unrelated people and events. I hate it

So I used to work for a few [adultswim] studios and watch your content because your stuff speaks directly to creatives in ways that are refreshing and delightful, even when the topics are depressing or full of frustration like this. And after this wonderful piece, I want to see your take on the current zombification of the internet too. I do believe we can fight back this corruption and its going to take content creators to visualize (and therefore materialize) this fast coming fight. Take care and keep on truckin' Savannah.

@@farnregen I assume they're referring to either how the internet has basically split into single minded bubbles/echo chambers (like a group of zombies shambling after a single thought), or that a lot of stuff that has traction on the internet at this point does so entirely from inertia rather than current merit (which also could be a zombie parallel)... Buuut I could be wrong.

@@thaddeusgenhelm8979 isn't that a bit of human nature (to be in a bubble atleast, community, connection)?

@@farnregen I guess the difference is here is that, in your village, your exposure to the beliefs/opinions on others is based on the other people you have to, you know, co-exist with, while on the internet the issue with the bubbles is that the opinions you end up interacting with are just the ones that already agree with you. If your views makes life worse in the village, having to interact with the other villagers will either help you understand that, or at least get you enough pushback to, if not reconsider, at least keep it to yourself. If your views make life worse for others, but 90% of the people you talk to are just people who agree with you on those and so you can more easily delegitimize people who disagree with you in real life, because, well, obviously all these other people agree with you, they must be wrong. It's a bit of an oversimplification, but it's why internet bubbles tend to drive people towards more partisan/radical thinking, while having to actually go out and interact with a lot of different people tend to push people more towards... I guess center left? Less extreme, but more respecting the rights of others (which, at least in the US, is a left thing, I guess?). But yeah, echo chamber bubbles tend to exhibit a certain sort of focused herd behavior I could see someone comparing to a group of zombies. It wouldn't be my go to, but I could see someone saying it.

​​@@thaddeusgenhelm8979Your village analogy doesn't work because villages murder people for being gay or even just women for showing ankles which doesn't hurt anybody. I mean at the end of the day people will always find ways to blame innocent people for the actions of aggressors. So better to at least let the victims keep to themselves. Besides FaceBook specifically tried putting people with different political opinions together and that's what created all the animosity between family members. Because uncle Ted has n problem saying "maybe gay people need to be shot" on the internet because he's a fascist little bitch or some dumb idiot falls how ok line and sinker for Russia's propaganda telling young people it's okay to destroy storefronts because of some radical Marxism.

Yup, even more convinced you're from around my generation, especially the:"you did not heed my warning and now we're all doomed" in the video description, that's me every day. Great work as always, You really make me wanna come out and do stuff outside my ghost modeler works.

Here's the song's lyrics: - Verse 1: Remember the days When we used to say, "Google it" And the answer I was looking for Would be right there, first result I've tried so many queries So I've got a new theory There's so many pages But I don't have the patience - Chorus: Google, doen't work anymore I've tried to search For what I need I'm still looking for Yes, I know about the quotes I know about the dash, and "OR" It's all ass. Google, doen't work anymore - Verse 2: I am from the future I've come bearing a message for your time That Google would become the thing It sought to destroy Yahoo-oh oh-oh Oh-oh, Yahoo-oh They passed on buying them (twice) Sold their soul to the advertisers The prophecy is true, that - Chorus: Google doesn't work anymore That ship has sailed We're lost at sea So all aboard I have to add the word "Reddit" To every goddamn search to read Content made by humans - Outro: Google doesn't work Anymore... ;-; As for the chords: C - E7 - F - Fm

What genre of music is this? I am absolutely obsessed and I NEED MORE. I love this too much and has been on loop for an hour now

Gooogles "radiostatic hazbin hotel" *finds some images* Tumblr:*heres a bunch*

This has major MOOD energy.... *AND I'M HERE FOR IT!*

That's a really nice and funny song, i want to search more of this) Also the unique feeling, so calming, i love the clay texture!

The fucking reddit line is so accurate 💀

Oh my god the "google doesn't work" melody just appeared in my head during lunch aand I couldnt recall where I heard it. I wasnt even sure if it was real and looking through my history I found your video back. That part of the melody has something otherworldly and intriguing I can't describe. It's like those special melodies that have been scientifically proven to be very liked by our brains? Anyway the song is dope and the visuals are super cool

why is this so calming and beautiful?????

Using google sometimes feels like programming, where you need the proper keywords and syntax to get a reasonable result. Also hi Savannah :D loved the song!!

The biggest issue I find is that it always assumed I meant something else. If I’m asking how to solve a problem with specific conditions, show me the results related to those conditions. Not all these other more common problems that don’t apply to me.

I legitimately really want this on Spotify. Your voice is amazing

this is amazing! you must have worked really hard on this!

The Reddit thing is so true, every problem that I have to search I just add Reddit in the front for more accurate results and is so annoying
