Pop stars react to Red Sox singing ‘Dancing On My Own’ during ALDS celebrations

Musicians Robyn and Calum Scott react to the Red Sox singing “Dancing On My Own’ during postseason celebrations

The improbable 2021 Red Sox, who were projected to be a fourth-place team with an under-.500 record, are going to the ALCS. For the third time in nine days, they popped champagne, strapped on ski goggles, and celebrated like there’s no tomorrow.

Of all the highlights from these celebrations – and there are many – the best has to be that the team has taken to singing “Dancing On My Own” as they rejoice.

The electropop originally written and performed by Robyn, was released in 2010. It’s been featured on hit tv shows, including Gossip Girl, Girls, and Orange Is the New Black. It’s also been Sox catcher Kevin Plawecki’s walk-up song.

Calum Scott, who covered the song and did an epic remix of the original with Tiesto, also loved the video.

Music plays a huge part in the Fenway Park experience. After “Take Me Out to the Ballgame” in the seventh, there’s a rendition of “Sweet Caroline” in the eighth. “I’m Shipping Up to Boston” gets the crowd going if there’s a bottom of the ninth, and “Dirty Water” and “Tessie” play if the team wins at home.

Like sports, love for music is a unifying force. Seeing the Red Sox sing together as one is a reminder of how much they all had to come together as a team to reach this point.

When someone suggested that Scott and Tiesto make an appearance during the postseason run, the former was all for it:

Hopefully, the Red Sox keep winning on their own!
