LYRICS:
Why, I’ve explored the Internet since 1995
I’ve wondered Wikipedia since before you were alive
I’ve searched through every searchbar, Googled Yahoo, Yahooed Bing
To find misinformation is a terrifying thing
You’ll spot it in an article with sources left uncited
Or maybe in a tweet or two with followers ignited
A hedonistic headline might be baiting you for clicks
But don’t let all this “journalism” get you with its tricks
Fake News! Fake News!
The truth is something you don’t get to choose
You’ve got to understand this propaganda’s out of hand
With every cite I’ve trekked
Another fact unchecked
Fake News! Fake News!
You’d be surprised how quickly it accrues
Informational myopia will soon become dystopia
A wretched cornucopia of lies
But we can fight the trend--even put it to an end
When we browse with more critical eyes
Step one: what’s the source? It should be credible, of course!
Historically reliable and proven undeniable
Step two: READ OR LISTEN past the headline--or the soundbite!
If skimming’s how you do it, then you probably shouldn’t view it
Step three: what's the tone? Can it’s true intent be known?
It is factually empirical or actually satirical?
Step four: think it through, does it resonate with you?
And if even if it does, well, that doesn’t mean it’s true
So keep your thoughts intact: an opinion’s not a fact
Finally step five: try a deeper dive
Your echo chamber’s breachable
The world out there is reachable
So search for more research and you can keep my friends alive
So let’s watch out for:
Fake news!
Watch out for...
Fake news!
The truth is something we don’t get to choose
Come on!
You’ve got to realize that these lies are in disguise
But once you learn to spot ‘em
By Google, now we’ve got ‘em!
Fake News!
Watch out for...
Fake news!
Misinformation’s not without its cues
If media is apocryphal it could be catastrophical
Our minds will soon be chock full of deceit
But we won’t be the fools, if we utilize these tools
And render these pretenders obsolete!
When the news is fake
With people’s trust at stake
A lie could lead a movement
A hatred-filled mistake
Those who seek authority
To prey on the majority
Their interests take priority
Over what we need to hear
The convictions they affirm
Will twist the very term
To invalidate reality
With ignorance and fear
It’s harder to accept the truth we don’t want to believe
But when we work together there is nothing that we can’t achieve
With nothing left to misconceive as
Fake News! Fake News!
The truth is something we don’t get to choose
No need to be a Karen, give this video a share and
You can stop the downward spiral
If we make this message viral
Fake News!
(IE: let’s stop the...)
Fake News!
It’s time to pay democracy its dues
If we can stand united then it’s easily indicted
So let’s learn to fight this information war
Be it FOX or MSNBC, when news is written honestly

“The whole thing… but I have stuff to do” “like what?”💀💀
I loved playing the Internet Explorer in this video! So thrilled to be a part of it!
LOVE YOU MONICA!!!
I was just about to comment "WAIT IS THAT MONICA" and it IS you! 💕
Those pants are actualy amazing and I want some
You did a very good job
You did great! You are so beautiful and a great singer!
Why don’t schools use this to teach this is way better than listening to a 10 minute lecture
I’m an English teacher and was just thinking how great this could be for next year;)
Not that Internet explorer. He's still buffering. 🤣
“I Googled Yahoo Yahooed Bing” - my favorite line
lol
I CANNOT believe I JUST saw this. I’ve been missing out on so much ❣️
Absolute props goes to whoever made those lyrics,
the rhyming game is on point as always, holy storms!
Thank you!!
😂😂😂 “to safe my friends❤” “Wait you have friends!?” 😮😮😮😮😂😂😂😂😂
Great Musical with the Mary Poppins of the Internet
that EXACTLY what we were going for!!!
That’s what I thought when I saw this video!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
That's the kind of video I've been missing.
I guess there are probably reasons for mainly making shorts now, but the longer and elaborate ones are so magical and special to me.
Great job with this one!
The world needs this video! Keep it up.
Thank you!!! We will!!!
I remember as a kid being told not to believe everything I read online. Le plus ça change...
Looove this! Needs to be played everywhere 👏🏾
YESSS! Please help us get this shared! :)
@@PixelPlayhouse shared it on my IG. Great job y’all 👏🏾
Always liked your stuff - I'm sure dividing your CZcams channel made sense personally, but it's definitely hurt the reach of your individual projects. This deserves more views!
yeah i know, I do wish I could do it differently! Let's see... still figuring it out! thanks for the love though!
@@PixelPlayhouse thanks! I'm just glad you're doing this, 'cause I missed the memo and haven't seen your stuff for ages. I remember showing the tapping in your wii-u video to my music theater class I taught back then.
I'm happy to see I now have a bunch of videos on this channel I need to catch up on!
@@PixelPlayhouse😊
New Musical? HYPE! :D
woooo!!!!!!
This is sooo important. Thank you for making this musical
technically we are all Internet Explorers
Yessss!!
The lyrics are great, but the score feels a bit... I don't know... flat? ... compared to your old stuff. Was that Antonius' job?
"Googled Yahoo, Yahooed Bing" Favorite line
Wow. Wow. Wow. What a beautiful harmony of voices and acting and message. Great job! ❤️
Is this video fake news? It says don’t trust CZcams or uncited works, but it’s a video on CZcams and uncited. And if that’s the case, then this video is fake. And if it is fake, that means it’s claim about fake news isn’t real. But if fake news isn’t real, then can this video be fake?
My head hurts
lol, I just think you broke my head as well!!
It's pretty clear that this video is propaganda by big pharma to sell more pain killers!
@@Robbedem yep, you got us! lol
😆
Great video! But more like 80's than 90's XD
This is awesome! Everyone should watch it. It's cute, catchy, well-done, and it's also spot on. It's the sort of thing which should probably be viewed in every English-speaking classroom in the world (and probably should be dubbed into about 150 different languages as well). We all need to be able to spot fake news and propaganda lurking among truth and facts.
Wow, thank you!
Great musical on a vital issue! It proves there are good places on the Internet.
Aww thanks! There’s def a lot of negativity out there these days, hope to bring a little light in there
Omg I love Monica!!!
This is amazing!
Awww thanks! Had a lot of fun making it!!
I love this so much
THIS IS BEAUTIFUL!!
Your musicals are more underrated as my favorite game
This is a bop!!
Thank you! It’s gonna be stuck in my mind for months!!
Holy hell, this is amazing
yay, glad you like it!!! Thanks for the love!!
Thank you for spreading awareness❤
1:23 It’s a bummer that the shadow of the camera and gimbal appear on the left side here. Everything else is top notch though!
nice work guys!
Thank you!!!
But how can you know if a fact checking website is legitimate or not?
Amazing💖
So glad you enjoyed it!!
This is ✨immaculate✨
🤗🤗🤗
AVBYTE IS THIS WHERE U WENT

THANK YOU!
The Mystery Gang approaching the Internet now
CRAAP test: the musical
We need more drama teachers to let us watch these videos
That’s reminds me of Mary Poppins.
"Sure, some lies can be harmless, but when powerful people manipulate information, their influence can *Trump* the truth!"
lol
Awesome and factual!👍👏
Haha thanks!
Awesome video
Thank you!!!
Marilyn Monroe, is that you?
i learnded this in jernalisam class
finally i got to video with my internet explorer! wait... why does it says 2 years?
Great musical! And actually valuable information presented. Maybe it's my crooked hearing but anyone else feel like the instrumentals could be a bit more "mighty"? I feel like it's so much in the background which is kind of sad, but maybe you want to highlight the singers just a bit more.
yeah, def hear that too! It's something we noticed as well! Will improve on the next one! It's soooo epic, NEEDS to be heard! lol
@@PixelPlayhouse That's great to hear! Been two weeks already, excited to hear whats next.
👍
Hello Pixel Playhouse! I love this video very much, and would love your permission to preform this at an upcoming talent show! If you all would also be willing to make an instrumental version with lyrics (and possibly a version with the internet explorer removed (so I can still have the backup vocals with my talent show)...)
as much as we'd love to do that, we currently don't have the manpower to do it! But we'll be figuring that out asap so that there are ways for people to perform it!
@@PixelPlayhouse Hello again, I recently purchased a video editing software, I'd love to work with you all to create instrumental lyric videos for your musicals (starting with this one)! I will get started on the creation/proper timing of the video, if you all can recover the instrumental track from before the vocals were recorded! If and when you respond, I'll share my number with you so you can contact me (I only want it to be online for a limited time, just long enough for you to get it!)
She literally said I've been browsing the Internet from before you were alive. Like peps how'd she know
May I use this video for my students?
Of course!!
Why does the internet Explorer looks like Marilyn Monroe
That’s what I was thinking!!!!!!!!
I follow you on tiktok
Don’t worry. If you don’t understand; just smile and nod ;)
Lol!
This song hits different after the storming of the capital
yep, agreed
BIG HERO 6?
This video after January 6th...
Too few people saw this 2 years ago.
Cool
No, YOU are!
We need real news!
indeed! And to agree as a society what we believe is true and not true!
Commenting mainly to increase the chance that other people see it
Here before 1,000 likes
yay!!!
Fact checkers… yeah
Love how the next video on auto play is about trump 🤣
🤣🤣🤣
How do I know your telling the truth? 🤔
Did you know that 90% of students die in a fire on their birthday
AHA YOU BELIEVED THAT DIDNT YOU?
No
Anyone else here from Tik Tok?
First
hey!!! Thanks for watching! Hope you enjoyed! Was a lot of fun to make!!
Ha love the stab at Trump
