I don't have a pan control for YouTube playback, unfortunately - over headphones at least.

I'll see if I can find an audio only example of the above. Right now, it simply sounds hard panned with some low frequency stuff sitting mono and maybe some of the background rhythm being mono. Not unpleasant, however.

As terminology has been used, repurposed, compromised, etc. - nowadays, Binaural can mean many things.

In the non-music, engineering world like for recording noises in vehicles, binaural recording refers to use of a dummy head like those from Neumann, G.R.A.S., Head Acoustics, and Brüel & Kjær. I used those from Head Acoustics for about 15 years. Because of the head related transfer function that is physically 'built-in' to the dummy head and shoulders, it was far more 3-dimensional than any of the more typical two-microphone techniques whether it's X-Y, separated pair, Blumlein, etc. To hear the full effect of a 'binaural' recording made with a dummy head, it almost required headphone playback rather than two speaker playback in a room. The recordings have much more 'height' and 'depth' than a typical, non-head related 2 mic recording.

In the audiology world, binaural response simply means something to do with both ears. I have to remind myself of this often as I deal with audiologists in my new day job.

Perhaps in the more general case, binaural might mean something like "a different signal presented to left ear than right ear"

As a sort of tangent, one thing I had set up in my cheapo listening environment as a teen, was described on the back of a Brian Eno recording; drive a cross-room 3rd speaker with the positives from both left and right out of a 'stereo' amplifier.

This does increase the number of places in the room where 'stereo' effect is noticed, but can also wreak havoc on the amp, so experiment with caution.

With this particular track, I think the Eno technique (my terminology, not his) would probably really light up that 3rd speaker, as most of the signal does not sound to be common between left and right channels.
