The line comes from “Die Young,” a song by American singer Kesha released in 2012 as the lead single from her album “Warrior.” Its dance-pop production and chorus centered on living intensely in the present made the lyric especially suitable for celebratory edits.

It continues to work online because the message is instantly recognizable and can feel either sincerely uplifting or playfully dramatic, depending on the visuals.
