This creator normally gets 12M views. This one got 14M. That gap — not the raw number — is what makes the format worth copying.
A group of friends stands still with serious faces, then suddenly breaks into energetic dancing and singing along to the song 'Nobody's Want Somebody'. The video repeats this sequence twice.
