Fleetwood Mac's "Dreams," a track taken from the band's 1977 album Rumours, is once again providing the soundtrack to a god-tier meme.

You've certainly seen it. If you haven't, do yourself a favor below:

The clip comes from TikTok user 420doggface208 and sees the man enjoying a contagious moment of Mac-inspired bliss while coasting through the universe atop a skateboard. Notably, the man—identified in this KnowYourMeme breakdown as Nathan Apodaca—also utilizes the unique joy brought on by sipping from a delicious jug of juice.

Apodaca's clip, naturally, went extremely viral over the weekend thanks—in part, at least—to a widely shared screen recording posted to Twitter by user @DrewFrogger. As the views and tribute videos started piling up, Apodaca himself took to Twitter to express his gratitude for the moment—which included a retweet from the band:

So thankful to everyone, YO! everyone share this to @fleetwoodmac an @OceanSprayInc see if they can help out with a donation or a commercial deal lolz

And this isn't only the instance of 420doggface208 putting this proven formula to good use, with other examples including this equally golden clip soundtracked by Green Day's "Brain Stew":

Everything he posts is pure. Protect this man. I don’t want to inhabit a world without him pic.twitter.com/T1hiBgynyB

In terms of the song itself, as Billboardpointed out, the clip's sustained popularity will certainly result in major boosts for the long-adored classic. On Spotify, as seen here, the track has already seen massive gains in the hundreds of thousands of streams since the skateboard and juice-assisted clip was posted on Sept. 25 (though it appears to have already been bubbling up with a noticeable resurgence even before that).
