'How Old Are You? Brainrot Edition' passes a million, and viewers want Crazy Frog

Andrew Piano's age quiz on the keys sat quietly for a day before it took off, and its comment section is arguing over which songs make you an 'unc'.

Why this story? The video is running at 1,233,465 views a day, 24 times its usual pace (52,500).

On its first day, "How Old Are You? Brainrot Edition" looked like any other short on Andrew Piano's channel, with a little over thirty thousand views. Three days later it was drawing more than a million in a single day, and its total has since gone well past that mark.

The idea is in the title: a run of internet songs and meme tunes played on the piano, sorted by how old you would have to be to know them. Andrew has been working this idea all week. "If You Know These Songs You Were Born in 2010," posted a few days earlier, has also traveled far beyond what his uploads usually reach, while a sibling about having the best childhood has stayed quiet.

The comments piled up as fast as the views. The most liked replies push back on the labels: the songs filed under unc or adult, viewers insist, are simply what they grew up with. People name the ones that got them, from the Gummy Bear song and Eiffel 65's "Blue (Da Ba Dee)" to the coffin dance tune, and several say the quiz ends in a Rick roll they never see coming. The most popular request is for something that did not make the list: Crazy Frog.

The channel has already moved on to October. A Halloween theme tutorial came next, then "Are You Ready For Halloween?", which opened at about five times the channel's usual first-day pace. Andrew's about page sets a subscriber goal for every year since 2022, each one ticked off. The one for 2026 is half a million, with a wide-eyed emoji beside it.
