Have you ever wondered what makes a viral song? Well, you need memorial lyrics, a dance trend, and a “drop”. A drop is when the music’s tempo changes from flowing music to jazz. Memorial lyrics are lyrics that are, well, memorial. A dance trend is when the song has a dance to it, simple or hard, it makes a great addition to the song
Music can go viral in many ways. From social media to hints before the song. All the songs have catchy tunes and have clips of their song posted on TikTok, YouTube, or social media.
