So apparently, while we were all busy scrolling past sped-up anime edits, TikTokers in Spain decided to vibe to a 1965 bop. Yep, California Dreamin’ by The Mamas & the Papas is suddenly the party anthem — and honestly? It’s kind of a mood.
The trend kicked off with Gen Z in Spain, where creators like Plex started using the track in dreamy travel edits. According to Los40, the song blew up and became the go-to sound for feel-good party vibes — vintage edition.
Now, it’s not just Spain. TikTok feeds across the globe (including the US) are catching on. Whether it’s a dance video, a slow-motion beach montage, or your friend pretending to live in a Wes Anderson movie, California Dreamin’ just fits.
So if you see someone grooving like it’s the ‘60s on your FYP — don’t be surprised. It’s retro. It’s unexpected. It’s giving ✨timeless✨.
