Friday was released in 2011 by American singer Rebecca Black and quickly became one of YouTube's first major viral music videos, attracting millions of views and widespread parody. Its simple lyrics about the days of the week and its earnest, low-budget music video made it an easy target for remixes, reactions and jokes online. Years later, the chorus still circulates as a shorthand for Friday excitement, especially in short-form videos, memes and ringtones that celebrate the weekend.
