▸ Frequently Asked Questions
FAQ — Chocolate Rain
What is Chocolate Rain?
"Chocolate Rain" is a 2007 song written and performed by Tay Zonday, whose strikingly deep voice and homemade webcam video made it one of the biggest viral hits of the early YouTube era. It's especially remembered for the caption "I move away from the mic to breathe in", which appeared every time he leaned back from the microphone.
Does this play the actual song?
No. This is a silent visual tribute built from scratch on HTML5 canvas — falling chocolate-brown rain, a silhouetted singer and the famous caption. It does not contain the song's recording, melody or lyrics. There's an optional original deep ambient hum you can switch on, which is just a generic low drone — not the song.
What is the caption about?
In the original 2007 video, the words "I move away from the mic to breathe in" appeared on screen whenever Tay Zonday pulled back from the microphone so his breaths wouldn't pop the audio. It became one of the most quoted captions on the early internet, and this screensaver recreates that moment each time the singer leans back.
How do I run it fullscreen?
Click anywhere on the canvas or press the Enter Fullscreen button. Move the mouse to reveal the exit button, or press Escape to leave. You can also press F to toggle fullscreen at any time.
Is it free?
Yes, completely free. No account, no ads, no watermark. It's one of the free browser-based tools at jasperbernaers.com.
