OK then, so this one has OVER FIVE MILLION VIEWS now. It's still rising, along with my subscription count, which is WAY higher than I ever expected. And it's really dumb! But by coincidence, the song, sung by a computer in 1961 (and quoted, slyly, in the movie 2001 when HAL was being shut down) was also "big" on TikTok, which I barely knew about, and now DON'T want to know about because all I hear about it are negative things, and all I've seen of it is pure crap and bad for kids. BUT. . . I didn't put any more effort into this than I did into literally thousands of other videos (I generally post at least one per day). In fact, somewhat less, as all I did was put two videos together which were initially posted well over 10 years ago. More like 12, and on maybe half a dozen other channels. Let's just say it was well within the public domain! But even at that, YouTube ludicrously put a song credit at the bottom so I wouldn't get a copyright strike. It doesn't matter if a HUNDRED other channels post the EXACT same video. I'd still get dinged, and maybe even shut down for good. It's all done by bots - no human being ever sees them - and I have had "warnings" and copyright strikes for the most ludicrous things. You just have to go ahead with it and hope for the best, while watching some of your favorite channels being terminated for doing nothing at all but tell the truth.
