13 years ago, anna kendrick released ‘cups’

schools were never the same after this

Every white girl ate this shit up

pov cups when they see anna kendrick coming:

pitch perfect really saved her career and we are grateful

White girls were never the same after this

easily one of the worst fucking pieces of shit to ever grace pop culture. we gave up goths and glam pop for this fucking frankfurt bullshit.

always forever iconic

She made an awkward moment into gold.

I wonder if she knew she was making history here

Youth group talent shows were never the same after this 😂

She didn't release the song. The original song is 'When I'm Gone' by the Carter Family. Anna kendrick covered the version by the British folk band Lulu and the Lampshades, who added the cup rhythm.

White middle schoolers across America thought this was the gateway to heaven when this popped up on YouTube.

My then 10-yr old loved this. Without much practice, she did a dinner time performance after the movie. She was right, I am gonna miss her when she’s gone.

everyone was slamming cups onto the table the sound would irritate me until i studied and mastered this myself

Every single person tried to recreate this! The was lots of positivity being spread around the world then compared to now… what happened?

i can do the cup or i can sing the song, i can not do both at once

@Daniel_D6vocals She made her-story

not history being rewritten with a plastic cup and good timing, civilization peaked when we all thought we had rhythm for 2 minutes

Minute 1:43 I had never noticed that the bartender’s shaker cup gets stuck, and he has to pretend it came off properly before pulling the one underneath.

@Annette_klenam Remember this song so well.

Looking at the cameraman

Gay icon 🫡

simpler better times. when life was all about learning lyrics and cups

only just realized anna kendrick wrote this song and she also acted and sang this in pitch perfect am i Retarded

Real ones saw it on Zoom first

I never realized how millenial optimism the full song sounded 😭 even the customers were dressed so millenial

The real ones know that Rich Mullins created this cup rhythm back in the 80s…

If you didn’t know how to do this no one would play with you btw 😭

you’re gonna miss me by my TACOOO

Around the same time Brittany S. Pierce released "My cup"

I can't even begin to express how much I hate this song 🤣🤣😭

This was such a cultural reset like
