“It must be nice…” TikTok sound
TikToker @toonkyy originated the phrase when he was watching two lovers embrace each other.
“It must be nice… I’m trying to get like you, my boy,” he said as he watched the couple kissing.
The song playing in the video is a snippet of “You Are” by R&B singer Charlie Wilson. Now, people have embraced the sound whenever they feel a little covetous of others.
“When you’re the only one who has to wake up and go to work during the holidays,” a father said while watching his kids sleep in.
“When your sister becomes a rich housewife,” Asha Ramlochan said.
She showed off her sister’s numerous cars and massive home in Southern California.
“When you so hungry you start watching mukbangs,” @ogske said as he watched videos of people gorging on food.
“When I send my husband into this store alone because the girl always gives him a discount for our groceries,” @saharandtre wrote in a caption as she waited in the car for her husband.
