Why is Justin Timberlake’s Mirrors Used As Sound?
It isn’t much of a thought why Mirrors became the perfect sound choice for this trend. The sound the original TikTok used came from the pre-chorus of Justin Timberlake‘s 2013 song.
‘Cause with your hand in my hand and a pocket full of soul
I can tell you there’s no place we couldn’t go
Just put your hand on the glass
I’ll be there to pull you through
You just gotta be strong
‘Cause I don’t wanna lose you now
- Netizens agreed that this song simply has the vibes of staring at your partner and then unconsciously wishing for them to stay forever. Also, the lyric, “I can tell you there’s no place we couldn’t go,” fits perfectly to the driving-and-roadtrip setting of the TikTok trend.
- It’s a suitable love song for those who consider their partners their other half. Imagine being a “mirror” of each other and realizing that while lovingly staring at them. Yeah, the trend is definitely cute!
Is it okay to do this viral TikTok trend?
Driving etiquette should not be forgotten while doing this trend. For those planning to do this on their S/Os, it’s better to be safe than sorry, so you might as well try this one, perhaps when the car’s stopped (or moving slow, red light, and such things). It wouldn’t hurt to consider how your stares would affect the one driving, right? They might not take it and get so flustered!
For those drivers who might be faced with this viral trend, as we said earlier, try to keep your eyes on the road. Safety will always be the priority when it comes to these things, so be mindful. You are not the only one on the road, so be careful!
Here’s what the new trend is all about, so… are you planning to do it? Do this viral trend with caution at all times, readers!
