Moonwalking Pony Beats Harlem Shake For Most Viral Video On The Internet Business Insider
A video of a little pony doing the moonwalk to Fleetwood Mac is blowing up on the viral charts. (Watch the video below.)
According to Unruly, which tracks the most-shared videos on YouTube, this ad for U.K. mobile network Three is the most viral video on the internet right now. In fact it beat out two versions of the Harlem Shake (one by "The Simpsons," the other by the Miami Heat) for the number one spot (It's currently #2).
The ad was made by Wieden + Kennedy, the folks who brought us the Old Spice man, and exceeded one million views on YouTube in its first weekend.
But the ad is also very social. Unruly's statistics say it has been shared more than 500k times on Facebook, Twitter, and other social platforms since it first went online on Friday. It has been shared almost 200k times before noon today alone.
Three is doing its best to make sure that it lives on in the Twitterverse as well. The hashtag #DancePonyDance plays at the end of the video and even other companies are tweeting about it.
Christine Thrilled With Ad
According to a Wieden + Kennedy blog post on their Welcome To Optimism website, Christine has seen the ad and is thrilled they've used "Everywhere" in their ad campaign.
"we got a telephone call from Martin Wyatt, manager of Christine McVie of Fleetwood Mac, the writer and performer of the song 'Everywhere' that soundtracks the ad. He told us that Christine is "absolutely thrilled to bits" that we used ‘Everywhere’ and wanted to congratulate whoever made the decision to use it in the ad. She "absolutely loves" the ad and has been "glued to the TV all weekend" waiting for it to come back on. Our Three team is a bit starstruck and overwhelmed at this news."

Fantasy Springs Casino in Indio, CA was the scene of Stevie's last solo show this past Saturday night ending officially, for real this time, the In Your Dreams Tour.. It's back to Fleetwood Mac in a month! No changes to the set list from Vegas on the 28th.... One interesting bit of info that Stevie did mention, according to Blue Rose who attended was that she'd:
"be on tour with Fleetwood Mac for a year then its back to making new songs."
Always good to hear that she's thinking about making new music solo or with Fleetwood Mac... Hearing it over and over never gets old. I'll take new music from any of them any day whether solo or with Fleetwood Mac. She also dedicated Landslide to someone by the name of Denise.
Fantasy Springs Casino uploaded some pics to Flickr. Two are here, the rest can be seen on Flickr. Not sure who took the photos, but they did a fine job!
Fleetwood Mac have 67 shows booked in 13 countries so far this year beginning April 4th in Columbus. The last date so far is October 25th in Finland. Australia and New Zealand are likely next and haven't been announced yet. Those shows will likely take place later this year.
Exciting times ahead... New music... New stage... New brightly coloured t-shirt on Lindsey... Wondering who will all be up on stage playing with them (Brett Tuggle's been confirmed)... Wondering about these 3 new songs... Wondering about the new old songs they've mentioned they may add back in to the set... You know, all the fun stuff you think about in anticipation.
