Meme About Blasting Freaky Friday's 'Take Me Away' At Full Volume
Text content
"DON'T WANNA GROW UP I WANNA GET OUT HEEEEY TAKE ME AWAY I WANT TO SHOUT OUT TAKE ME AWAY AWAY AWAY AWAY AWAAAAAAY"
Overview
This collage meme references the 2003 Disney film Freaky Friday and its iconic soundtrack. At the top, the lyrics to the pop-punk track 'Take Me Away' from the film are written, opening with the line about not wanting to grow up and wanting to escape. The left panel below the lyrics is the official Freaky Friday original soundtrack cover, featuring Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis in their character outfits from the body-swap comedy. The right side has two stacked reaction images: the top right shows an audio volume knob turned all the way up to the maximum setting of 10, and the bottom right is a widely used viral reaction image of a young child screaming with their hair blown back, as if they are yelling the song at full volume. The joke plays on nostalgia for 2000s Disney media and the relatable urge to blast beloved nostalgic music loudly to escape the stresses of adulthood, which aligns perfectly with the escapist tone of the song lyrics.
