# Pop Star Toy Parodies Little Lamby Covers OneRepublic’s ‘Counting Stars’ By Jennifer Paul | Published 2014-02-12 | Pop Culture Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/onerepublic-cover References: [mashable](http://mashable.com/2014/02/05/little-lamby-onerepublic-cover/) & [youtube](https://www.youtube.com/user/littlelambysings) This adorable little lamby wind-up toy recreates a OneRepublic cover of the infections ‘Counting Stars’ song. The video follows the little lamb around a toy store hoping to find his perfect little girl or boy to take it home. At the beginning of the video this little girl is intrigued by the wind-up lamb but unfortunately her mother tells her it is time to leave. The little girl puts the lamb back on the shelf and this is when little lamby’s adventure starts. The wind-up toy is singing the OneRepublic song and searching for a way out of the toy store so it can be reunited with the little girl. The OneRepublic cover is funny and adorable coming from this little toy. The [squeaky singing voice](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/loops-lab) makes it seem much more appropriate. Generally, we don’t see [cover songs done by toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/musicoverai) so this is a breath of fresh air. It is a great way to incorporate some humor into a catchy pop song. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.4/10 - Popularity: 17% | Activity: 46% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Viral](https://www.trendhunter.com/viral) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Pop Star Toy Parodies:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Exploring the potential of creating more toy parodies of popular songs to engage children and create entertainment products. ### Where This Applies - **Toy Industry:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Introducing new and creative toy products inspired by popular songs to attract young consumers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Rapper-Inspired Easter Ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nova-starr.md) - [Holiday Diss Tracks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-rizzler.md) - [Intricately Handcrafted Animal Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lulu-the-lamb.md) - [Engaging Musical Humanoid Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/toy-robot-concept.md) - [Toddler Off-Screen Audio](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ms-rachel-tonie.md) - [Phone-Style Counting Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chat-count-emoji-phone.md) - [Puppy Care Toys](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/little-live-pets-ouchies.md) - [Reimagined Toy Block Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lego-lofi-girl.md) - [Heartwarming AI-Generated Songs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lg-radio-optimism.md)
