Video taking off 21x its usual first day

Mia's moonwalk steals 'WE NEED TO KNOW!' from Cadel and Mia

The short asks for a comment in exchange for seven years of good luck, and most of the people who answered wanted to talk about one smooth glide across the floor.

Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 5,320,665 views a day, 21 times a normal first day on this channel (255,454).

Mia's moonwalk is the thing people keep writing about. The new Cadel and Mia short, billed in its title as a dance for luck ("COMMENT FOR 7 YEARS OF GOOD LUCK!"), had been watched about four million times fourteen hours after it went up. A new upload from the couple usually ends its whole first day somewhere near 250,000.

It is a short dance clip in the couple's usual shape, tagged dance, funny and couple. The comments settle the question of the best moment. Again and again viewers single out Mia's moonwalk, and several compare it to Michael Jackson's. One running joke says it is smoother than their wifi.

The ending gets its own crowd. Cadel turns up in a wig, and a number of viewers say he plays the diva in the final seconds. As we reported here, a wig of Cadel's had already upstaged the couple's behind-the-scenes reveal the day before, so it is becoming a regular guest.

The short also stood well apart from the rest of the day. Five other uploads went up the same Monday, among them a matching-hoodies dance trend and two more behind-the-scenes clips, and none had reached 150,000 views. Across the channel as a whole, daily views were running lighter than usual, which makes this one clip's pull stand out all the more.
