“Dracula” isn’t just a mood piece; it is quietly becoming a TikTok song. A review from Euphoria, Tame Impala – ‘Dracula’, notes how the track’s nocturnal imagery and rubbery bassline make it feel instantly loop‑able, and TikTok has picked that up with dance and skit trends built around the hook.
In those clips, users lean into the “run from the sun like Dracula” line as a joke about hating mornings or real life, which fits the song’s story of only feeling fully yourself after dark.
That TikTok life lines up with what the song is saying. Parker uses the Dracula metaphor to talk about hiding in plain sight—awkward and exposed in daylight, smooth and magnetic once the lights go down—and short videos turn that into a visual punchline over and over.
The result is a track that plays like a small character study on record but behaves like a big, shareable sound online, sitting right at the point where a very specific feeling becomes easy to meme.
