The French DJ takes this little-known piece from 2011 to his liking, which was a hit this year thanks to a scene from the Netflix series.
We doubt that the Gothic Wednesday would have accepted to dance on the electro of David Guetta. However, the French DJ has just reinvented the song in his own way bloody mary of Lady Gaga, title of 2011 which knows a new youth thanks to the Netflix series.
The author of planetary tubes such as Money Where Love Don’t Let Me Go posted a video on TikTok on Thursday in which he documents his process for turning the original track’s pop into a title dancing.
25th place worldwide on Deezer
Armed with a simple laptop and a keyboard, he changes the rhythm, speeds up the tempo, adds a pad to create a “melodious techno vibe”, mixes the song with another… and voila. In comments, many Internet users ask him to release this new version.
After the November 23 release on Netflix of Wednesday, a series centered on the eldest daughter of the Addams family, many fans recreated on TikTok a dance in which the character indulges in one of the episodes. But instead of repeating the music used in the program, they reproduced the movements on an accelerated version of bloody marya track from Lady Gaga’s album Born This Way released in 2011.
A hit eleven years after its release
There is no explanation why TikTok users chose this music to accompany their videos. But thanks to its sudden omnipresence on TikTok, a service particularly popular with young people, the echo of bloody mary has gone far beyond the borders of the social network.
On Shazam, an application that detects the title and artist of a song just by listening to it, the song found itself at the top of the most searched in the world, as well as in France, Germany, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Hungary, Israel, Mexico and Norway.
It has also generated new enthusiasm on streaming platforms, for example occupying 25th place in the Deezer world ranking of the most listened to songs. Riding the wave of this unexpected success, Lady Gaga herself lent herself to the game by reproducing the famous dance on TikTok.
I have to say that Wednesday had every chance of setting trends: this series created by Alfred Cough and Miles Millar (and partly directed by Tim Burton) achieved the best start in Netflix history for an English-language series with 341.2 million hours watched worldwide in its first week of broadcast, breaking the record held by season 4 of Stranger Things.
