Songs that BLEW UP on TikTok vs YouTube #3

Just love how 'dumb ways to die' blew up when its a train safety song

[Tomcat_]

Fun fact: Dumb ways to die was originaly made as psa by Metro Trains in Melbourne, Australia (My home town) so that they could promote railway safety after a series of incidents. It was then turned into a series of video games after the song went viral.

That awkard moment when you've never been on TikTok, and didn't know How Bizarre blew up over there, but you still somehow remember all of the words from when it was all over the radio in the 90s.

Soulja Boy was amazing. I instantly started dancing. Savage love doesn’t give me the same need to dance.

[Grimbee]

I cant believe joel never heard shoes before, considering this was like super viral back then

[michaelryan]

As a Melbourne local, I had no idea that Dumb Ways To Die was big on the internet until like a year ago. I always liked the video, but here it was commissioned for Metro Trains and was a legitimate train safety ad run on TV regularly, with billboards at train stations and stuff as well.

Hey did anyone get hard nostalgia listening to the dumb ways to die song? Or is it just me? I have tears in my eyes and i don't know

[volcanisor]

The moment he mentioned ppap i was like " Aw sh1t, here we go again"

[alleengdahl]

it’s super old it’s from 1995!”

Me, who was born in 1988 :👀

[woltti]

Just a reminder that PPAP is the second most viewed Japanese song on YouTube, and was only recently dethroned after years of having the number 1 spot.

[wulfleyn]

The "saxophone" in the jason derulo song is actually horn music made by a teenager that wasn't credited and sued jason who settled it out of court. iirc.

I wish, that Joel actually looked at some tiktoks of these songs. He was soo dead wrong about what we did with sugercrash.💀

[hillaryfield]

Joel: “oh it’s super old, it’s from 1995”
Me, who is 5 years older than that song: “first of all, how dare you”

[eerikav]

Joel watching Sandstorm: “Are they German?”

Me: *angry finnish noises*

[Glittercat]

I feel like Joel didn’t take into count all the way how iconic the YouTube songs were for their time 🙃

[crowchild]

Lonely island was and still is iconic, what good memories

[melaniemenard]

Video idea: Songs that have a collab version, with vs without collab (ex: sia cheap trills with vs without sean paul, despacito and bad guy with vs without justin bieber, etc.)

[mariahjmess]

The Dumb Ways to Die song is a BOP and no one will ever be able to tell me differently.

[rylanmyers]

You always know when he isn’t enjoying the song because he checks how much longer he has to listen to it

[thAheidi]

*Darude playing* "It's so german. Are they german?"
Every finnish person ever: *angry finnish noices*
