Why it worked
The video likely resonated due to its humorous and relatable (for fans) expression of extreme admiration for a popular athlete, combined with a catchy, albeit silly, song format.
Summary
The creator sings a ballad about soccer player Rodrigo de Paul, expressing extreme devotion and willingness to do anything for him. The song humorously details how they would react if de Paul were to text them, emphasizing their adoration.
Structure
- 1Introduction of Rodrigo de Paul
- 2Expressing extreme devotion
- 3Humorous scenarios of response to a text
- 4Concluding with a declaration of singing to him
Product placement
Rodrigo de Paul ACTS - he is a soccer player, and the video is about him. Removing him would change the video. Canva APPEARS - it is a design tool, and the creator's bio link points to it. Removing it would not change the video.
On-screen text
I see you kicking that ball
Rodrigo de Paul
and if you'd ever call
I'd pick up
cause Rodrigo de Paul
I'd literally crawl
and gently sprawl
if you ever texted
"U up?"
you kick
you score
you leap
you freak
you good?
what's up?
how's your day?
how's your week?
you run
you hide
but can't hide from me
cause I'll sing
to thee
as youre kicking that ball
Rodrigo de Paul
and if you'd ever call
I'd pick up
I'd pick up
and I need you to know that
tonight
