I'm not sure if you noticed, but it's a officially a Friday. And what do we do on a Friday? We gotta' get down, of course (as per Friday's song lyrics).
Rebecca Black's hit song Friday was released in 2011 and quickly became a viral sensation.
Debuting on YouTube, the song now has a staggering 172 million views on the platform and went on to become a staple of the 2010s.

13 years on from its release and Rebecca has made several more songs, but Friday remains as her most streamed track to date.
With this in mind, it's inevitable that she would include the song in everything she does - including her DJ sets.
The singer recently performed at London's infamous Boiler Room and played a mash-up of Friday and Charli XCX's track '360'.
A video of her set is doing the rounds on Twitter, sparking Rebecca to comment.
Resharing the clip, she wrote: "I will stop playing Friday when my therapy bills are recouped."
People were quick to reply to her tweet and insisted that they don't want her to stop playing Friday as they still love it to this day.
One person said: "I’d be upset if you didn’t [play Friday]. It’s your brand."
A second penned: "Your song Friday got me through a year long deployment. Keep it up!"
"I mean it honestly and unironically, your song is chill and not hurting anyone," wrote another. "Rock out girl."
Others raved about the Friday and 360 remix, and I have to agree that it's pretty damn good.
Rebecca has previously opened up about the mental toll it took on her after releasing Friday at the age of 13 and the backlash she'd received for it.
Speaking to NPR more than a decade later, she said: "Having so much intake of information when you're a child – and having not even a semblance of self, really, to bounce that off of.
"Everything passes through it – there is no filter that you have built within yourself to able to say, like, 'I don't know if I agree with that.'
"If somebody says 'you don't belong here, you're bad at this, you're a disgrace for even trying to do something like this,' those words have such a different intensity when you're a child because you just believe them."
She added that there were a lot of 'incredible highs and incredible lows' that came with her abrupt rise to fame following Friday's debut.
