When Your Favourite Reggae Song Comes on Funny Videos

If you're still dreaming of making your mark on TikTok, you need the right tunes to back your sweet dance moves. And TikTok is nothing if not a seemingly endless font of viral tracks. Some of the most popular songs of the past few years even got their starts on TikTok before racing to the top of the Billboard charts. Lil Nas X's "Old Town Road," for instance, popped off on TikTok in 2019 after gaining some traction on SoundCloud. From there, radio programmers were ripping the song from the internet to meet listener demand to play it on their stations.

TikTok virality doesn't just stay on the platform. Many artists with tracks that go viral on the platform will find that the song has also launched to the top of their top-played songs list on streaming services, too. Indeed, virality from platforms like TikTok has upended the music industry to an extent. As tracks blow up online, labels are put in the position of finding and signing those songs to their labels instead of the other way around, with the music industry pushing the music to listeners. As more and more artists release new songs and sounds on platforms like TikTok , we can expect this exciting trend to continue.

29. Montero (Call Me By Your Name) by Lil Nas X

Lil Nas X's "Montero (Call Me By Your Name)" follows in the success of his first number-one hit, "Old Town Road" and was nominated for three awards at the 2022 Grammy Awards. Though, its road to popularity wasn't without some backlash. The title of the song is a combination of his first name and a LGBT film and novel.

30. Love You So by The King Khan & BBQ Show

Unlike many of the other songs on our list "Love You So" hasn't been released recently. It was originally released in 2005. Fast-forward 16 years and it started trending as a TikTok song. As a matter of fact, it was used so much on TikTok that memes were created about its excessive use.

So much so that creators started to add it to their video only to make the song barely audible.

31. Monkeys Spinning Monkeys by Kevin MacLeod & Kevin The Monkey

While not a lot is known about "Monkeys Spinning Monkeys", it sure has been used a lot in TikTok videos. Released in 2014, this two-minute instrumental piece makes the perfect soundtrack.

32. Rompe by Daddy Yankee

Daddy Yankee is a Puerto Rican songwriter, singer, and rapper. He's one of the best-selling Latin singers and even created a term "reggaeton" to describe a new genre.

33. Leave the Door Open by Silk Sonic

If the voice behind "Leave the Door Open" sounds familiar that's because it is (and no, it's not because you heard it several times on TikTok). Silk Sonic is a new project of Bruno Mars. In 2017, he formed an American R&B duo with Anderson .Paak as a joke. Fast-forward five years and they walked away with four Grammy Awards, including Song of the Year and Best R&B Song. From dance to dog videos, it's been used in nearly two million TikTok videos.

34. Gimme More by Britney Spears

"Gimme More" by Britney Spears is another of those golden hits that are trending on TikTok 15+ years later. Even if you're not a Britney fan, the tune is catchy and you'll find yourself singing along to it more than you want to admit. While her infamous live performance of the song at the 2007 MTV VMAs might have been criticized heavily and described as being the worst performance in the history books of the MTV awards by BBC's David Willis, it has now been used as the anthem for many of popular dance videos on TikTok.

35. First Class by Jack Harlow

Before its official full release in April 2022, "First Class" by American rapper Jack Harlow already went viral on TikTok.

In fact, in less than a week, more than 50,000 videos were created that used the 13-second clip of the song.

36. All Too Well by Taylor Swift

Ironically, Taylor Swift's "All Too Well" was the reason for a viral TikTok video about when things aren't going all that well. Shane Barton posted a video at the end of 2021 in which he records a fight between his roommate, a Swiftie (aka a Taylor Swift fan), and her boyfriend about the song. The video went on to receive over 6,000 comments, 23,000 shares, and 680,000 likes.

Also, unlike TikTok videos that are usually less than a minute, you'll need 10 minutes to get to know the original version of "All Too Well". Not only did it help TikTokkers to get many likes, but it's also been labeled as her best work.

37. My Name Is by D Billions

"My Name Is" by D Billions has been described as the next "Baby Shark". The uptempo, children's song has been used in a silly dance craze that sees four people dancing the signature moves of the YouTube's video four characters – Chicky, Cha-Cha, Lya-Lya, and Boom-Boom. On YouTube, the video has received nearly 1 billion views.

38. We Don't Talk About Bruno by the Encanto Cast

While talking about children's songs that have found their way on to TikTok, we need to talk about Encanto's hit "We Don't Talk About Bruno". The blend of Latin music styles creates a catchy tune, while the lyrics are fun. It's an earworm that young and old can enjoy together. Many of the TikTok videos that feature the song are of users recreating scenes from the movie, but it also led to its own trend of two takes.

39. Major Bag Alert by DJ Khaled and Migos

41. Dance Monkey by Tones and I

From cooking videos to cute babies, "Dance Monkey" by Tones and I has been used in various types of TikTok videos. It has even been used by Will Smith in one of his TikTok videos.

It's a feel-good song that will turn basically anyone into a dance monkey. In an interview with an Australian radio station, the artist explained that she wrote the lyrics to the song about the pressure she experienced when she was performing on the streets. Looking at the 5+ millions of TikTok videos in which it has been used, it's clear that her own experience has made it a lot easier for other creators on TikTok to loosen up, albeit in front of a virtual audience.

42. Vibe (If I Back It Up) by Cookie Kawaii

Rolling Stone has described "Vibe" by Cookie Kawaii as a song you need to know and a "sharp earworm full of playful sounds". It's short and sweet just like the most successful videos on TikTok. It's the perfect song for twerking videos (in fact, that's what the song's lyrics are all about).

43. Just a Cloud Away by Pharrell Williams

"Just a Cloud Away" by the legendary Pharrell Williams was first made famous when it was used in Despicable Me 2 , but, just like with many of the other songs on our list, TikTok made it famous again. It's often used for parodies of happy reveals. In these types of videos, TikTokkers will share something that they worried about only to reveal that it has actually happened.

44. In My Mind by Never Dull ft Crystal Waters

46. Crazy by Patsy Cline

If you like how Fleetwood Mac's classic "Dreams" has been discovered by younger audiences thanks to TikTok, be sure to give "Crazy" by Patsy Cline a listen. Cline's song dates all the way back to the 1960s, but lately it's been used by TikTok influencers, creators, and celebrities to share some of their crazy stories on the platform. From wedding stories to relationship woes, it's been used in hundreds of thousands of different videos.

47. Oh No by Kreepa

If you want to use something other than one of Kevin MacLeod's instrumentals for your pranks, you can try "Oh No" by Kreepa. It's one of the most well-known TikTok sounds, but it actually has an interesting history. The clip comes from an old classic, "Remember (Walking in the Sand)" by a girl group from the 1960s, The Shangri-Las. Just another example that we've always been surrounded by powerful and influential females.

48. Miami, My Army by Keith Whitley

Nearly 40 years after the song was first released, it's trending on TikTok. Now, it's often used by younger audiences to share their nostalgic moments.

50. Money by Lisa

"Money" by Lisa (a member of BLACKPINK, a South Korean girl group) has been used a lot in TikTok videos that feature content about Squid Game.
