Singer brilliantly hides a song in her various YouTube videos

Singer-songwriter Dodie Clark hoodwinked us all.

Since April of last year, the YouTuber has been singing a couple of words ever-so-subtly in each of her videos. When these snippets are edited together, they form a song -- "Arms Unfolding" -- which appears on her latest EP. Although the song was uploaded to her channel in August of 2018, the full EP, entitled Human, dropped January 17.

The song does feel very "scrapbook-style," as Dodie describes it. However, it is truly adorable and definitely made me smile. In the video above, she notes that no one in the comments really picked up on her plans, though some astute viewers noticed that it sometimes sounded like she was singing.

You can listen to the full song here.
