SiIvaGunner Wiki:Meme discussion/Log/25th: I Love Beijing Tiananmen
ok this is not another meatball parade situation hear me out
ilbt initially didn’t gain much traction in the early days of the channel, being used only sparingly in a few rips. in 2022, the track was ripped, marking the beginning of its more prominent usage which would become recurring in season 7. over time, it became a recurring source in both rips and its frt, eventually culminating in the ilbt fusion collab at the end of bootleg day, which solidified its significance within the channel.
after the release of the FC, the track continued to be included in both standalone rips and medleys, further embedding it into the channel. additionally, the game’s main character, shin, made a brief appearance on the monitors in CCC 11, further cementing the track’s place in the channel’s lore.
with 22 rips featuring the source as a joke, I believe ilbt has earned the status of a minor meme. while it may not have been as prominent as other sources from that era, its consistent presence over the years make it worthy of recognition as a significant meme/source within the channel’s history.
light on this one, i definitely do think ILBT is a notable song but i do not consider it a siivagunner meme. the fusion collab is the strongest point towards it, and it has been ripped a handful of times but i just dont see the rips and its usages as being memetic in the same way other FRT memes like underworld map and game with rabbit are, as it is less specific to siiva and sees little to no references in non-rip media. HK97 and by extension ILBT is popular and often referenced in internet culture in general, and i do not believe its presence in siivagunner is notable enough to achieve meme status.
i could be convinced otherwise but rn these are my thoughts
Well, as for later when Hong Kong 97 gain more rips, it was definitely featured a bit more, and appears quite few medley rips that dedicated to feature many SiIvaGunner memes, so would've work

yeahhh tbh i dont rly see it, besides fc theres not a lot going for it and it doesnt feel siiva-adjacent enough to rly warrant it as a meme on the channel (for reasons circun did mention). this could probably change but this is jus what i think rn
i think it could very easily tip into meme status if the rip trend keeps up at all, but for now it seems like it was more of a short fad which then got bolstered a bit by bootleg day and its fusion collab
oh god it was there huh. feels like everything was tho lol so im not sure how much rep that gives it
it was in a recent kirbtune so hopefully it does keep it up
going rip by rip w this one was evil cuz u know how siivagunner be
for me although i can kinda see why someone would support it
the most interesting thing abt it to me is the small trend between the start of 2022 and bootleg day where it got about 6 rips but everything else seems tied to the fc or miscellaneous
