Parsing error. No idea what it is or what the problem is.

Question

I get this error:

Assets/Nathansassets/Game Music.cs(1,28): error CS8025: Parsing error

Whenever I try to compile this C# script.

 private static var instance: MyUnitySingleton
 public static function GetInstance() : MyUnitySingleton {
 return instance;
 }
 
 function Awake() {
     if (instance != null && instance != this) {
         Destroy(this.gameObject);
         return;
     } else {
         instance = this;
     }
     DontDestroyOnLoad(this.gameObject);
 }

I have no idea what the problem is, to me the code seems almost flawless.

Maybe a private static var instance needs an initializer like this?

 private static var instance: MyUnitySingleton = null;

No, sorry. When I copied the code I missed the semicolon.

That's JavaScript. Your filename is .cs
