Former Vine star, and musician in her own right, Left at London is known for breaking down and parodying artists' signature song styles, and her latest video is the self-explanatory "How to Make a Mitski Song."
 
First of all, she explains the two kinds of Mitski songs — ones that are "sad" and ones that "sound happy, but are also sad." Then, she breaks down the mandatory beat, the distorted guitars and the synth solo.
 
Honestly, by the end of it, it actually sounds like Left at London has written a Mitski tune.
 
Even Mitski seems to think so, as she responded to the video by joking, "now that you've figured it out and codified it can you just take over? I'm exhausted, I need a rest."
 
Check out Left at London's video and Mitski's response below.
