Comments on the video are nothing short of hilarious and adorable, with people saying the song makes them feel like a child who was just sung a lullaby.
Some claim it has healing powers with one person saying " This feels like my parents getting un-divorced" and "Everything is so scary right now. Sometimes, we just need an axolotl song to soothe the nerves."
Since it's social media, many have made their version of the song.
