Older Hits Have a Home on Tik Tok Too. Primary Wave’s Catalog Proves that.

Whether you’ve been on the app for a while — or if quarantine boredom turned an innocuous curiosity into a full-blown obsession — 2020 was undeniably the year of TikTok.

Not only did the addictive app provide endless entertainment in the form of short, 15-second bits, the accompanying songs latched onto our brains for weeks and months, giving way to a new class of rising stars (and welcome returns from a handful of older ones) who transcended TikTok and became permanent fixtures on the charts throughout the year. – Rania Aniftos – Billboard Magazine

Primary Wave “Home of Legends” have 4 songs in the top 25 TikTok trends of 2020

25. Olivia Newton-John, “Hopelessly Devoted to You”

TikTok rediscovered Newton-John’s lovesick Grease ballad toward the end of 2020, and “Hopelessly Devoted to You” quickly became a way for a new generation of romantics to paint the picture of themselves as a modern day Sandra Dee. The sound is filled with teens (and one very supportive father) belting out the song melodramatically, as if Danny Zuko himself had broken their hearts.

10. Aly & AJ, “Potential Break Up Song”

Who would have thought ’00s Disney darlings Aly & AJ would find their stride again in 2020? What started out as a string of girls flaunting stylish outfits while dismissing a boyfriend gone sour to the song’s first verse was quickly overpowered by a group of moms on a night out. The clip, with more than 10 million likes, was soon duetted with by the daughters of the viral moms, who are hilarious spitting images of their parents as they recreate everything from their facial expressions to that iconic head bob. I mean, they really said copy paste.

8. Ritt Momney, “Put Your Records On”

The trend associated with this sparkling cover of Corinne Bailey Rae’s 2006 hit single may seem a little confusing at first — as smearing a bunch of random eyeshadows on your face with your fingers might not necessarily scream “makeup challenge.” But fear not! Once these artists were done marking their canvas, they closed their makeup palettes in a seamless transition to reveal some of their most creative, professional-level eyeshadow looks.

1. Fleetwood Mac, “Dreams”

In a particularly tumultuous year, the world found peace in the hands (and feet) of Nathan Apocada. In just 15 wholesome seconds, user @420doggface208 soothed our collective souls as he cruised down a road on a longboard, taking a swig of Ocean Spray straight from the bottle and lip-syncing along to Fleetwood Mac’s 1977 hit. The TikTok, which currently has more than 11 million likes, introduced much of Gen-Z to “Dreams,” earned recreations from Mick Fleetwood and Stevie Nicks — and the song subsequently had its biggest streaming week ever, even making it back to the Hot 100’s top 20. So thanks, Nathan, for making this hellish year a bit chiller.
