I'm not a person to cringe often. I very rarely cringe at all, really, and even if I do find things a bit cringey I have no problem getting through them.

But this. Made me cringe. So. Hard. I had to keep pausing it and regaining myself every 5 seconds. I thought that would be the popular reaction considering how many people found Tatinof itself cringey, but I'm also happy everyone is enjoying it. I too am sincerely proud and very happy for them. Cringing really hard, but happy. :D
still got room in that boat? I tried, I really did, but I can't get through it - neither song nor vid. I hope they raise loads of money and I'm happy you all love it, but…nope, no can do. But I cringe really easily and I hate musicals with a passion, so it's not really surprising.

Still bought it though, cause I love that they're doing this.

Pretty, pretty please, could someone combine the non-doge Dan with the non-high Phil from last night's show for me?!?!

As of this second..'The Internet is Here' is currently No.3 on the iTunes charts, beating The Weeknd, Calvin Harris and Bruno Mars to mention just a few.

I'm weirdly proud of them, I had no idea (honestly) that it would blow up like this. At this rate, they'll have to brought in for interviews as 'artists'. I would just love it if Grimmy would interview them in the morning, would be funny to see the dynamic change (interviewer becomes the interviewee).

re: theater: starting to see where phil's optician was coming from. also, phil in black, bless. he really should wear it more often. not sure about dan's choice of shirt-jumper-whatever it was.

i also vote towards the editing of those pictures. please.

It's incredibly cringe and very camp but it's for charity so I LOVE it

Very cute and it makes me so happy. I was watching back some of dans old vyou's where he said he would love to sing and be on a stage but how it's never going to happen. I'm so glad it happened for you Dan

It's at number 3 in the U.K. Charts at the moment. Can't attach a photo because I'm on my phone but yeah. So proud of them big dorks

The way dan had to address that they had gone to the theatre because they got caught out though lol

I couldn't quite believe they'd done a music video too, that was amazing. More Phil in black too

It's bittersweet when they do things to support this charity, I lost my dad to it last year after six years, then discovered these two a few weeks later.

The boys are still moving up in the U.S. ...they're currently at #5 (at 4pm CST). I wonder if they'll get a little more movement since school has just gotten out for the day...

Listening to the song just after choir practice wasn't the best of my ideas (Deppy can sing, though, or at least could, I remember them singing the Phantom of the Opera in some ls, it wasn't bad, except for Dan's screams in the end), but the music video was cuteness overloaded, so
Dan wants to be understood. Phil just wants to make the viewer smile and sell some backpacks (c) fancybum

At 3:15 :

Phil: "That was so cheesy."

Dan: "It's supposed to be cheesy."

Even though I'll never listen to it I bought the single because it's only 79p and it's for charity. I mean I bought TATINOF for £5.99 knowing full well I'd probably never properly watch that as well and that was for the much less worthy cause of D&Ps future koi pond. Spending 79p and getting to support a cancer charity and be is money well spent in my book.
dans left hand wrote: The way dan had to address that they had gone to the theatre because they got caught out though lol
They went to the opening night of previews of a play and posed for a photographers picture knowing full well it was going online or was going to be published somewhere. I don't think they were trying to hide anything, if they were trying to go incognito it was a professional taking posed photos not a fan with a camera phone so they could easily have said no when asked to pose.
I know Dan didn't state where he was going before they went but I don't think they were "caught out" at that type of event they had to know it was likely the fans would find out they were there, in this case even if they had avoided getting their picture taken the guy they were invited them to support thanked them for coming on twitter.


Also offtopic- There was definitely discussion around the trailers being released of the TATINOF Doc trailer falling behind the trailer for TATINOF itself but I've just noticed now it somehow seems to have got 200K ahead.

That was such a cute video! The first time, I was worried it would be too professional for the song, so I didn't really watch it. I watched it the second time,and realized how cute it is!:love2: I have nothing else to add besides I'm so proud,I've chosen the right people to stan, etc. but people have already said that. I wanted to suggest it "without the internet, we would've never met" but it was 42 letters. :cry:

All I can think is: thousands of AUs suggest otherwise

.. sorry I'm falling asleep and cant keep this song out of my head

Isn't that for the official UK charts though? They're only in the iTunes chart rn.

Wow ok. I just watched the music video and I was expecting to have to stop it because of the cringe (I haven't watched tatinof yet because of that) but I actually liked it :D . I might actually watch tatinof now.

Something I noticed: Dan took the harmony at the end even though Phil has the lower voice. That means that Dan is probably the more confident/better singer.

Dan went to stage school and has done loads of stage shows! So he's definitely got more experience haha
