What are your favourite applications during the Covid-19 lockdown? I believe most of your answers could be Tiktok. TikTok has been one of the most popular applications during the Covid-19 pandemic. Many people use this app to create their videos when they’ve had free time during social isolation. A lot of videos are very creative and fun, so sometimes I spend all of my days watching TikTok videos. Because of the popularity of the application, it helps many people become famous and one of them is an Indie rock band from British Columbia named “ Mother Mother”.

Since August 2020, Three tracks from the 2008 album “O My Heart” have been very popular on TikTok because they have become the soundtrack of many Tiktok videos. The passage “My daddy’s got a gun, you better run.” from the song “Hayloft” has become one of the song passages that many people lip-sync frenetically on their videos. Two other songs from the same album named “ Arms “Tonite” and “Wrecking Ball” have been popular in Tiktok as well. Moreover, there are more than 65 million views on the clip tagged “mothermother” since October 28th, 2020, so it pushes the band to No. 413 on the rankings of Rolling Stone’s Artists 500.
