I Made A Viral TikTok Sound

In my latest video experiment, I set out on a mission to create a viral TikTok sound in just seven days. With no idea if it would actually work, I dove headfirst into the world of TikTok and its fascinating phenomenon where certain audio clips become viral and widely used across various themes and contexts. My goal was to create a sound that could be applied to multiple situations and have it go viral.

The Quest for Virality

To understand what makes a TikTok sound go viral, I consulted with TikTok experts and analyzed popular trends. I learned that it's not necessarily the content of the sound itself, but rather the cadence of how it's spoken and its memeability that determines its potential virality. Relatability and cringe factor also play important roles in the success of a TikTok sound.

The Making of the Sounds

Armed with this knowledge, I set out to create my own TikTok sounds using my voice. I explored different themes and ideas, from relatable moments to nostalgic references. I also experimented with reusing and recycling my own content, hoping to tap into the success I had previously experienced on TikTok. I carefully crafted each sound, taking into account its potential for replication and memeability.

The Results

On the first day of my experiment, I posted my first TikTok sound: "Well, this is gonna be my personality for the next decade." To my surprise, it started gaining traction almost immediately. Within 24 hours, it had amassed over 170 videos and received tens of thousands of likes. It was being used by TikTok accounts ranging from millions of followers to smaller creators.

Encouraged by this early success, I continued to create and post more TikTok sounds over the course of the week. Some sounds performed better than others, but none reached the same level of virality as the first one. Despite my efforts to replicate the initial success, it became clear that the key to going viral on TikTok is often an unpredictable mix of timing, relatability, and sheer luck.

The Viral Breakthrough

After several days of posting different TikTok sounds, it happened. My first sound broke through the barriers of virality and started spreading like wildfire. It garnered attention from big-name TikTok accounts and even caught the attention of singer Ed Sheeran, who used the sound in one of his videos. The sound had taken on a life of its own, accumulating millions of views and likes across its 51,300 videos.
