the music platform Spotify collapsed due to the premiere of the new album “midnights” of Taylor Swift. Around the world, thousands of users could not listen to the songs of her idol due to the collapse of the platform, caused by the number of fans who entered at the same time to listen to the singer’s new work.
the hashtags #MidnightsTaylorSwift Y #Midnights They quickly became a trend. And of course, the situation unleashed hundreds of allusive memes from tweeters who ran to the birdie network to find out why Spotify had fallen.
The despair of “swifties” (as the singer’s followers call themselves) was illustrated by the image of the cartoon character spongebob, running around in a burning office. “All the swifties that don’t have Spotify right now,” the tweet read.
But it was not the only cartoon to be a meme after the fall of Spotify. The picture of Homer Simpson jumping from his house to his friend Moe’s tavern was used several times to represent how the “swifties” jumped on Twitter to find out what was happening with Spotify.
another meme of The Simpsons used on this occasion was the Grandpa Simpson telling stories of his past to the young people around him. “‘And then, at 10 p.m. on October 20, 2022, Taylor Swift released her tenth musical work titled Midnights, which crashed Spotify.’ Me telling my grandchildren about the artist of the decade“said the meme.
There was no lack of those who imagined how Taylor Swift must be at that moment, while the world of networks and platforms was convulsed with the premiere of her album. “Taylor Swift watching Spotify, Apple music, YouTube music collapse and suffer crashes due to the release of Midnights”, joked one of the tweeters, showing the singer drinking champagne.
Monkey face reactions were also a widely used element to express the nervousness of fans. “My life right now depends on listening to an album and it doesn’t weigh me down. Thank you Taylor Swift by break spotify one more time, and my sanity in passing”, said a tweeter showing the face of a visibly altered monkey.
There were also those who used the image of the actor Toby Maguire as Spiderman, in a scene where he tries to contain an impact that breaks the windows of a subway car. “Spotify server holding Taylor Swift premiere”, the “swifties” joked.
One of the pearls of the new album is the collaboration of the singer King’s wool, who accompanies Taylor Swift on the song “Snow on the beach”. With humor, a tweeter referred to the subject with the image of the Lucas Duck counting tickets. “Lana del Rey at this time tomorrow watching her get 15M streams on Spotify for saying ‘snow on the beach’ twice on Taylor Swift’s song”
