The rap was so catchy that I didn't get any of the information. I don't think rapping is the best way to share science…

I'm not saying that rapping is not a good way to share science, I just think that they could have been a bit more clear with the information presented in the rap. I also didn't really remember all the info. All I retained was that there was some sort of machine that could detect the particles that formed the black part of space. All in all, it was a good idea, but it could use some improvement.

This is really cool! It was so funny and catchy and gives you information at the same time! I understood almost everything, because I had read about it before.

I agree with Declan with that it rocks! The voice in the at the start of the video was a bit hard to understand but other than that i loved that video. I really liked the chorus.

I agree with Brandon. The way they gave you the information was cool but it didn't work because the rap was so catchy that you couldn't understand what they were trying to tell you.

I thought this video was HILARIOUS!!! I was told about this video at this convention-looking thing at UCLA. A cosmology professor came to give a speech about the LHC. Also, I heard on NPR morning news that the LHC was "revived" and started spinning protons around the circle, and they got them colliding at a speed even faster than light! How amazing is that?

That was kind of hard to understand with the rap, but i liked it over all. I've had the tune stuck in my head for the past two days. Nice idea though.

I agree with Brandon too. I liked the rap because it sounded catchy, but I didn't really understand and get the information that they were saying because it was so catchy.

Camille said...

I agree with Brandon too. I liked the rap because it was very catchy, but it was hard for me to understand and get the information because it was to fast to hear and it was so catchy.

I must agree with BrFong. It was hard to get the information. I didn't like how they repeated the lyrics so many times over again. It was kind of annoying. "And CMS and ATLAS are two of a kind, and ALICE will look for lead ions." IRRITATING. :) I could, however, get the general idea that they were trying to get across. "It will blow your mind." ARGH! SO ANNOYING!

Regardless of the fact that it was hard to understand, you could still pause the video and look at the LYRICS ON THE BOTTOM to let it sink in a bit so you could understand it.
