If you find yourself in Walmart over the next few days and hear a yodel making its way through the aisle—consider it your lucky day.

It might just be 10-year-old Mason Ramsey, a yodeling sensation whose video of a performance of "Lovesick Blues" by Hank Williams in an aisle of Walmart went insanely viral this weekend and blessed timelines across the country.

Everything about this video is perfect. The way Ramsey taps his boots, the way the woman on the side watches over him, his whole fit—this video has it all, including impossibly beautiful high notes and the belting of "daaAaaaaAdy" at one point that will guaranteed reverberate in your head for hours. In a timeline full of dumb challenges, yodel kid shines.

At first view, it's just a bit comical and it's impossible not to wonder whyexactly this is happening. Ramsey isn't new to yodeling. The Illinois native has yodeled his heart out for his local radio stations, and footage of him singing in Walmart before has surfaced online.

But if you're anything like me, that doesn't matter in the slightest and you'll still find yourself listening to it over and over again, in awe at the vocal gymnastics this kid is going through.

The video reached millions of people thanks to various accounts on Twitter and people immediately began discussing—and meme-ing—the great Ramsey.

But beyond just reacting to it online, people have been remixing—and covering—the genius of Ramsey's Walmart performance, creating some hilarious masterpieces in the process.

There's a remix of Charlie XCX's "Dreamer" featuring the now-iconic yodel.

These days, nothing is a meme if it hasn't been thrown in the Spongebob Squarepants universe. Yodel kid, meet Sandy Cheeks.

But what might be the best part of all of this is the folks who have gone the extra mile and actually re-enacted the yodeling in their own local Walmarts.

It's only a matter of time before it becomes the country's new national anthem, mark my words.
