No, nightcore songs are (usually) dance songs that have been sped up.

Basically annoying people speed up anime songs and put them on youtube. They sound like complete shit.

Anime is good, fucking deal with it.

Unfortunately it isn't just anime songs. I've seen nightcores of every genre of music

No it isn't. Nightcore is "take any track that is remotely danceable and increase the tempo and pitch by 15% and claim it as your own creation."

Nope, but it's usually associated with anime (almost every nightcore video uses a picture of an anime character) because of the high-pitched voice.

Nightcore is like the adult version of the chipmunks singing songs. For example take Cocaine by Nomy.

Not bad but the start was by far the best, try to keep the same volume throughout the entire video and try a simpler title and don't use the most over used Nightcore thumbnail, you could probably get some originals ones from the drawing section of MAL with permission from the creators of course.

What people do is usually take a song (Anime/Non-Anime), stick an Anime girl thumbnail, speed it up a bit, increase the pitch, and voila! Guaranteed views!

Some I've come across work out all right, musically that is.

But for the most part, they're just downright terrible renditions of songs. But hey, they're great for jogging outdoors to.

Nightcore =/= Nightcore

There are good artists and there are bad ones.
For example

Nightcoremaker A:
- Takes a popular song
- Speeds it up by 15%
- Takes any Animepic
- Uploads it
- Promotes his Channel with spam on boards and other videos

Nightcoremaker B:
- Takes a not that well known song, maybe from his homecountry
- Speeds it up by various percentages
- Remixes it, so only the catchy parts are there for the listener
- Adds Subtitles/Animations to it
- Uploads it with link to everything he used(Song, Art(only with permission), website etc)
- Looks how a Video is recognized and is producing new Videos based on the preferences of his viewers

As you can see A is producing cancer in probably 15-30 minutes per Video while B is creating some enjoyable music in 3-12 hours of work.

I am a type B. I ocassionally making some nightcore songs out of german songs wich are not well known in the world and are sounding nice. In addition I don't just speed it up, I usually sit 1-5 hours just to remix and remaster a song to my likings. If I get the MIDI files I am even switching some instruments or I am changing some parts of the melody.

My problem is, that many people don't even wanna hear it, because it beginns with "Nightcore",
but people who have more brain are at least hearing an song to the end and are judging me then.
This way I have only ~100 but very active and nice subscribers and about 10k Clicks per Vid.

Please don't compare these Cancermakers to a person who uses hours of his time to create acceptable music. Thanks.

As far as I have seen, this only became popular because it's an effective way of uploading any kind of music on youtube without risking copyright strikes.

Nightcore songs of anime music is cancer most of the time. Like most anime music that are nightcored are already high pitched and fast. R.I.P my ears.

I'm happy to hear some nightcore songs of some english songs that aren't mainstream, or at least I never heard of. Dunno why people take offense at people enjoying altered stuff(more than the original), it's not like they don't credit the original source. Making money off of it is bad taste for me though.

Nightcore is simply a song sped up and the pitch changed, but usually people post nightcore accompanied with an anime or manga image so it's often associated with anime fans. I personally enjoy listening to nightcore and think a lot of songs sound better that way.

"Nightcore" I never heard it so in the past I was thinking it was some form of "Darker Hardcore" or something (Dark Hardcore is a genre, yes I know) from what people have said about it, seems like a genre that wouldn't appeal to me, I'll be here listening to Grind/Jazzcore.

I remember first listening to Nightcore because of my siblings playing it.
I want to gouge out my eardrums and throw them away in lava, then have the lava flown into a black hole.
What is the point of Nightcore?
Nothing.
It's literally just a song that has been sped up or something.

I'm a creator of nightcore, and I can say it's often misunderstood. The problem is too many people nightcore the wrong genres of music. Only electronic music should be nightcored, and only certain types of electronic music are ideal for it. The best type of music to nightcore is hands up. often the nightcore version sounds better than the original. others are happy hardcore, eurodance, and occasionally hardstyle and trance. my guess as to why anime pics are used is because hands up is a genre with really happy sounding melodies and cheesy lyrics, and a pic of a kawaii anime girl just goes well with it. Here's a few recent ones i've done. all handsup.

No, it's someone making an abomination of someone else's work by speeding up to sound like a bunch of annoying, chattering chipmunks.

They make covers of all kinds of music, originals, sped up versions, lyric videos -- but always have an anime inspired background/thumbnail.

Nightcore songs are usually edited song made to sped up and be in high-pitched voices. The voice on Nightcore reminds of that of Alvin and Chimpmunks, they are somewhat annoying to me.

Nightcore was created by two Norwegian artists, whom they release their songs in speedy way.

Here is an original song by myself under the artist name "Buspar" and it's called "Parallel Me" I thought it would be a ballsy move to release the nightcore version before the original. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wW2NB6-s_nc

Nightcore is basically the same song heavily edited and slapped with an anime cover
i hate it when the Nightcore versions get more spotlight than the actual one
also they don't make those covers & at times they don't even credit them
