This is what TikTok is for.

If you watched teen TV in the late 2000s, there’s little chance you aren’t forever thrown back to that era by “Don’t Stop Believin’,” the Journey hit that became Glee’s most well-known cover throughout its first season. It doesn’t matter if you love Glee or if you hate Glee — if you watched or were aware of Glee in any way, a kneejerk reaction to that song is unavoidable.

And apparently the same holds true for show stars Lea Michele and Darren Criss, who recently shared video of them lip syncing to the song after it allegedly randomly started playing while the two were hanging out.

“when you’re with your best friend and don’t stop believin’ randomly comes on the radio,” Michele captioned the enthusiastic video.

While Criss wasn’t in the first season of Glee, where the McKinley glee club rehearsed and performed this particular song time and time again, that didn’t stop fans from being utterly hyped at both the reunion and throwing some Journey into the mix.

But the best comments were the ones that have haunted Michele ever since she joined TikTok, with the hilarious conspiracy theory that she can’t read following her into her comments section.

“Thanks Darren for writing the caption,” one viewer joked, while another just wrote “don’t stop believing” alongside emojis meant to spell out the words — a common format among her viewers these days.

With a Gleediscussion podcast from several cast members still dropping episodes, and a docuseries nobody asked for in the works, even seven years after it ended, it seems safe to say this stranglehold this show had on certain aspects of the culture isn’t going anywhere just yet. Or as some might say, it goes on and on and on and oooonnn.
