Little Dark Age is a song by MGMT released in 2019. It is regularly used in edits on TikTok.

Fan Use

Little Dark Age is often used as an audio by TikTok editors, often to the section of the song with the lyrics:

Open-eyed, burn the page, my little dark age


I grieve in stereo, the stereo sounds strange
You know that if it hides, it doesn't go away
If I get out of bed, you'll see me standing all alone
Horrified on the stage, my little dark age

Rather than using a clip from the original song, many edits use a version with the audio slowed down. Many edits are dark in aesthetic and theme, matching the tone of the original song.
