Abstract

Ferian, Ferian David Izam. 2025. The Influence Of Viral English Songs On Tiktok Towards Students’ Learning Motivation. Skripsi, English Education Department, Faculty of Language and Arts Education, IKIP PGRI Bojonegoro, Advisor (1) Dr. Ima Isnaini Taufiqur Rohmah, M.Pd., (II) Ayu Fitrianingsih, M.Pd. Keywords: viral song, TikTok, English students learning motivation This study aims to investigate the extent to which viral English songs on TikTok can enhance students' motivation in learning English. As a popular social media platform, TikTok frequently features viral songs used in various types of content, including educational ones. Music has long been recognized as an effective tool in language learning, as it strengthens listening, pronunciation, and vocabulary skills. Using a mixed-method approach, the research involved questionnaires and interviews. The findings revealed that most students felt more motivated to learn English after listening to viral songs on TikTok. They were encouraged to search for lyrics, practice pronunciation, and understand new vocabulary independently. These results suggest that viral songs can serve as enjoyable and effective learning media, increasing students’ motivation and engagement in English learning through informal means. Therefore, educators are encouraged to utilize social media and popular music as a relevant teaching strategy aligned with students’ interests.
