‘Abundance Frequency’ Trend Revives Anita Ward’s 1971 Hot 100 No. 1 Classic 

Times are tough, and global war is only turning up the pressure. So, naturally, people are turning to TikTok for money guidance, and some of found solace in user @/goddessinanna15 and her “abundance frequency” videos. In essence, “Ring My Bell,” the 1979 Billboard Hot 100 chart-topper from Anita Ward, apparently continues sonic frequencies that inspire financial abundance. In a Jan. 12 post, TikTok user @/goddessinanna15 claimed “Ring My Bell” is a “matrix hack” that will “bring money and wealth” because it correlates with the following phrases in numerology: “I am wealthy,” “win money,” “manifest” and “Johnny Cash.”

To close out her clip, which has since amassed over a quarter-million views, the user also claimed that she won a $5 scratch-off prize while listening to Ward’s signature hit. Later that week (Jan. 16 & 17), she shared two more viral posts expanding on the “abundance frequency”-“Ring My Bell” theory. Additionally, TikTok user @/sinai_rose launched a “Ring My Bell” dance challenge on March 3, with a clip that’s already earned over 280,000 views.

Now, whether any of this is true is besides the point. What truly matters is that people have bought into the “abundance frequency,” which has helped revived “Ring My Bell” on streaming. According to Luminate, “Ring” earned over 671,000 official on-demand U.S. streams during the period of Feb. 20-26, selling an additional 300 U.S. digital downloads. By the following week (Feb. 27-March 5), “Ring” jumped 277% to 2.53 million official streams, with its U.S. digital downloads total vaulting 1,001% to over 3,4000 copies. On TikTok, the official “Ring My Bell” sound boasts over 5,000 videos, many of which are now tied to manifestations of wealth and prosperity.

Even if “Ring My Bell” does absolutely nothing for people’s finances, at least it’s finding a way into the hearts and playlists of a new generation of listeners.  — KYLE DENIS

A ‘Go Away’ Comeback for Weezer and Bethany Cosentino

Another week, another ’90s alternative act striking TikTok gold with a many-albums-ago deep cut. This time, it’s Weezer‘s turn in the streaming spotlight, with the California vets’ “Go Away” — a highlight from 2014’s Everything Will Be Alright in the End album, featuring West Coast alt-rock fixture Bethan Cosentino of Best Coast — blowing up on TikTok over the past couple months, with users finding a variety of uses for the song’s male/female vocal interplay and lovelorn lyrics.

The TikTok interest in the song has translated to massive streaming gains over the past two months. Whereas at the beginning of 2026, for the tracking week ending Jan. 1, “Go Away” was only amassing 56,000 weekly official on-demand U.S. streams (according to Luminate), the song has skyrocketed to nearly 2.8 million streams for the week ending March 5, with its numbers still rising in the days since. The song has even entered Spotify’s Daily Top Songs USA chart, reaching a new peak of No. 153 on Tuesday (Mar. 10).

Both Weezer and Cosentino have since joined in the TikTok fun, with the latter getting 6.6 million views so far for a video of her performing the song on a toy guitar with the caption “when a song you cowrote and sang on 12 years ago goes viral and now you are someone’s mom,” and the former even posting a new lyric video with the monster on the Alright album cover lip synching to the song. (“Everything is still alright in the end,” the caption concludes.)

Dance Trend Lifts SAILORR & Eem Triplin’s ‘Coconut’ 

Choreographer, dancer, and TikTok user @/jeanvictorm has finally escaped the shadow of his viral “Needed Me” dance with a new, particulalry satisfying combination set to SAILORR’s “Coconut,” an Eem Triplin-assisted joint housed on her From Florida’s Finest Delu/XXX album.

Victor shared the first look at his choreography via his official TikTok page in a Feb. 5 clip that’s since earned over 631,000 views and nearly 100,000 likes. He quickly caught onto the dance trend’s budding virality with a follow-up clip on Feb. 11 (this time featuring himself and fellow TikTok dance star Orlando Lucas), which soon gave way to a litany of tutroial clips that helped non-professionals nail every move. While the unofficial “Coconut” sound boasts just under 6,500 clips, the official sound plays in over 17,000.

During the period of Jan. 23-29, “Cocount” racked up 366,000 official on-demand U.S. streams. Roughly a month later (Feb. 27-March 5), that figure soared 216% to over 1.15 million official weekly streams. With her buzz continuing to build thanks to her writing contributions on Baby Keem’s “Good Flirts,” SAILORR may just have unlocked a rising hit of her own. — KD
