... that English singer Rose Betts wrote the song "Driving Myself Home" as a joke after a blind date, only for it to go viral on TikTok?

Source: Inspired by a real blind date her friends set her up on, Betts wrote the song as a joke, including the lyrics: The best part of the date today was driving myself home … I put the chorus and the verse up and it immediately went nuts. Within a day it was nearing 300,000 views, and then a million.

The QPQ is done and I can see that this was nominated in time. The article meets the size requirements. The hook fact is interesting and appears in the source. The reference formatting could be improved a bit but this isn't really a hurdle for a DYK appearance.--N Ø 10:48, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
