The comment instructed other YouTubers to play the Nyan Cat video and hardcore rock band Slipknot's "Psychosocial" music video simultaneously in sync, which virtually resulted in a Nyan Cat audio dub (mirror below, left). YouTuber xDaZJMx commented on the original Nyan cat video by saraj00n telling viewers to watch Slipknot’s Psychosocial (muted) with the Nyan cat song playing in the background. Nyan Cat has been also briefly seen on Sprint's Nexus 4G "Cats" commercial, which featured a number of popular cat video clips. There are several remixes and spinoff variations of the original video circulating on YouTube, many of them customized with alternative characters and background music. On April 12th, the Tosh.0 blog posted the Nyan Cat video, as did CollegeHumor and G4TV. On April 10th, the Nyan Cat video was picked up by popular blogs and social networking sites, including Memebase, BuzzFeed, Tumblr, and Facebook among others. The video (shown below) gained more than one million views in its first two weeks. On April 5th, 2011, YouTuber saraj00n posted a video titled "Nyan Cat", using comic artist prguitarman's Pop-Tart Cat animation set to the well-known Japanese Vocaloid song Nyanyanyanyanyanyanya by Japanese artist Daniwell-P looping in the background, Although the song had been originally composed for Hatsune Miku to sing, The version used in the video was of the cover sung by the Utauloid Momo Momone. The GIF animation was also reblogged via Tumblr on April 2nd, 2011, accumulating more than 3,000 notes (likes & reblogs) in its first two weeks: Prior to the Pop-Tart Cat, prguitarman had already gained a relatively large audience with a few other instances of comics circulating on the web. The original drawing was based on his own Russian Blue cat, Marty, and was drawn after receiving two separate suggestions for a cat and a pop tart during a Red Cross charity drawing event on Livestream. The Pop-Tart Cat animation was posted on the daily comics site LOL-COMICS run by illustrator Chris Torres, also known as prguitarman, on April 2nd, 2011.
