History YMMV / WalkTheMoon

** [[https://youtu.be/gPedH9B8AAE Tightrope]], a song that was featured in VideoGame/SaintsRowIV, two years prior to them hitting it big with Shut Up and Dance.

* SugarWiki/FunnyMoments: During the video for "Shut Up and Dance", the background sometimes goes through a bunch of trippy environment and 80s-style visuals. Right before the final chorus, the music and visuals come to a halt, leaving Nick's character to dance awkwardly around the club, including mimicking John Travolta from Film/SaturdayNightFever and doing an Irish jig. Thankfully, the female lead steps in to help and the song returns as normal.

* SuspiciouslySimilarSong: "One Foot" sounds highly reminiscent of Music/The1975. Unlikely by accident, as it was, along with the rest of the album "What If Nothing", co-produced by that band's frequent producer Mike Crossey.

* BrokenBase: One ensued over their cover of the ''Franchise/{{Ghostbusters}}'' theme song, heard in the end credits of ''[[Film/Ghostbusters2016 Ghostbusters: Answer the Call]]''. Some listeners think, "ItsTheSameNowItSucks", while others think, "[[TheyChangedItNowItSucks They Didn't Change It, Now It Doesn't Suck]]".

* SignatureSong: "Shut Up and Dance", which was constantly played on the radio and became the song they're known for in the popular consciousness.

* AndTheFandomRejoiced: Longtime live-only favorite "Tiger Teeth" finally got a studio version on ''What If Nothing,'' much to the delight of their fans.
