TikTok, the popular social media platform that’s becoming even bigger than YouTube.

However, even if you find a BGM you like, there are times when you don’t know what the song is.

For those people, we’ve selected Western songs that became hits on TikTok.

We’ve picked a wide range—from tracks that trended in the early days to songs that are currently booming!

You often see dance videos where people turn their backs and wave their hands dramatically, right? A lot of celebrities have posted their own versions, so I think many TikTok users have seen it.

The song used in those videos is Hot N Cold by Katy Perry, which sings about the complexities of a woman’s heart.

By the way, the music video—where Katy Perry keeps chasing a man—has a horror vibe and became a hot topic as well.

Måneskin, the Italian band that’s been making waves with live shows and TV appearances in Japan, has released a string of hit songs.

The one especially blowing up on TikTok is “Beggin’.” In fact, this track is a cover of a song with the same title released in 1967 by the rock band The Four Seasons, and its bluesy vibe is striking.

I hope you’ll listen to both versions and compare them, paying attention to the kind of arrangement Måneskin has added.

The track was created by the rapper Luchi, who originally specialized in freestyle.

After showcasing his skills on YouTube, he blew up in a big way.

He’s also known for other songs that went viral on social media, like “QuickTape.” If you’re interested, be sure to check those out too.

In recent years, many artists have become stars after going viral on social media.

One particularly memorable example is Tones and I.

When she uploaded her debut track, “Dance Monkey,” to a video-sharing site, it spread instantly and topped music charts in countries around the world.

By the way, although the title and lyrics give off a fun vibe, if you listen closely, you’ll find a sad message embedded in the song.

I encourage you to check out the details for yourself.

This song portrays an insanely wild and free day where the party starts the moment you wake up.

It’s the debut single by American singer-songwriter Kesha, and upon its release in August 2009, it became a massive hit, spending nine consecutive weeks at No.

1 on the U.

S.

singles chart.

Symbolized by the shocking image of brushing her teeth with whiskey, its powerful message—throwing off conventions and living fully in the moment—has captivated many fans.

The music video, featuring her dashing through the city in distinctive fashion, also became a hot topic.

If you listen when you want to get pumped up, it’s guaranteed to blow your worries away!

Featuring exhilarating, powerful lyrics that boldly declare oneself the ultimate boss, this track leaves a striking impression! Created by U.

S.

artist Doja Cat, it was released in January 2020 and is included on the soundtrack album Birds of Prey: The Album for the film Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn).

It’s stunning how she flips the negative labels imposed by society and turns them into symbols of her own strength.

The protagonist’s confidence and unapologetic determination to forge her own path are empowering just to listen to.

Play it before a big presentation or on a morning when you need to fire yourself up—you might just feel unstoppable.
