Whether you like it or not, you’ve probably heard of the term “TikTok” by now. TikTok is “the leading destination for short-form mobile video. [Their] mission is to inspire creativity and bring joy.” And that it does… that it does.
TikTok is especially known for their musical memes. Users don’t stray away from creativity when they’re making dances, recreating scenes or making an absolute fool out of themselves– all in the name of fun. Behind every TikTok is a sound (music or voiceover), and some of those songs are true bops.
Here’s a playlist we’ve compiled of some of the best university-approved hits:
1. “Hard Times” – Paramore
The part you know: (Hard times) Gonna make you wonder why you even try / (Hard times) gonna take you down and laugh when you cry
2. “Blinding Lights” – The Weeknd
The part you know: The entire intro
3. “Nonstop” – Drake
The part you know: Look, I just flipped the switch (flipped, flipped) / I don’t know nobody else that’s doin’ this

The part you know: She put my name with yellow hearts, uh / Her favorite color like the stars / I didn’t listen very hard, uh / When she told me she was crazy from the start
