Is Raindance AI a song, a meme or a viral video?
All three. "Raindance" is a song by the British rapper Dave featuring the Nigerian singer Tems, released in October 2025 as the lead single from his album The Boy Who Played the Harp; it reached number one on the UK singles chart in January 2026. Its music video ends on a wooden pier at golden hour.
The meme came in late September and October 2026: people put two faces, usually a couple or two best friends, into that pier scene with an AI video tool and post it to TikTok and Reels with the song. "Raindance AI" is what they search to make one. The Raindance Film Festival and the Raindance Air shower head share the name and have nothing to do with it.
Which photo plays which part of the Raindance meme?
The template is a reference clip of the pier scene performed by an ordinary couple. The AI recreates it shot for shot with your two photos in place of theirs.
| Part of the meme | Who is on screen |
|---|---|
| Opening on the pier | Photo 1 sits alone at the end of the boards, looking out to sea |
| The walk-in and the sung close-ups | Photo 2 walks along the pier and sings every solo close-up to camera |
| The camera shot | Photo 1 kneels on the pier with a camera while photo 2 waits further down |
| The beach ending | Both sit together on the sand at sunset (the 30-second version) |
Each photo keeps its part for the whole video. If the wrong person ends up on the pier, press Swap and make it again.
How do people make the Dave and Tems Raindance meme?
1Step 1: Upload two photos
Photo 1 is the person seated on the pier, photo 2 the one who walks in and sings. One face per photo, roughly facing the camera, shoulders up or half body. Swap trades the parts.
2Step 2: Pick the model, length and quality
Seedance 2.5 keeps faces closest in the close-ups; the Seedance 2.0 models cost less. Pick 5, 10, 15 or 30 seconds (30 s on Seedance 2.5) and 480p, 720p, 1080p. The price shows before you press Make.
3Step 3: Make it, check it, post it
Wait a few minutes, play it with sound, check both faces in the close-ups and the beach shot, then download the MP4 and post it. The song is already on it.
How much does a Raindance AI video cost?
Credits per video, by model, quality and length. The price is shown before you press Make, a failed video is refunded, and downloads have no watermark. Plans start at $9/month for 240 credits.

Does the Raindance AI meme come with the song?
Yes. The MP4 carries the reference clip's Raindance soundtrack in time with the movements, so you don't need to add the sound afterwards. The video model itself makes no audio: nothing is re-sung or AI-voiced, and mouths follow the reference, so lip sync is close rather than word-perfect.
The song belongs to its rights holders. When you post publicly, TikTok or Instagram may match or mute the audio; if that happens, mute the clip in the editor and add the platform’s own "Raindance" sound, which lines up with the same scene.

What the Raindance meme template can't do
Only this scene, only two people
It makes the pier-to-beach scene with exactly two photos. No one-photo version, no group of three, no other locations or choreography.
4:3 landscape only
Every video is 4:3 landscape, the frame of the reference clip. Posted as 9:16, TikTok or Reels shows it with bars or crops it.
Close, not exact, lip sync
Mouths follow the reference performance, so they match the song closely but not word for word.
Faces can drift in wide shots
Faces hold best in the close-ups. In far shots on the pier and the beach, a small or blurry photo can drift; a sharper photo or Seedance 2.5 helps.
Not for celebrities or minors
Use photos of adults who agreed to be in the video. Photos of famous people, including the artists behind the song, are not allowed, and the Seedance 2.5 face review may refuse a photo.
Photo tips for the Raindance meme
Match the two photos
Similar light and a similar crop on both faces. A tight selfie next to a far-away full-body shot gives one face much less detail.
Mouths visible
No sunglasses, masks or hands near the mouth: photo 2 sings in close-up.
Clothes come from the photo
Each person wears what their photo shows. A photo cut off at the neck gets plain clothes, so pick one with the outfit you want on the pier.

Raindance AI Meme Video FAQ
Is Raindance AI free?
Not at the moment: every video is paid for with credits, from 10 credits (Seedance 2.0 Mini, 480p, 5 s); 219 credits for the default Seedance 2.5, 720p, 10 s. Downloads have no watermark and failed videos are refunded.
Can I make the Raindance meme with one photo?
No. This template needs two photos, one for each part. To appear twice, upload two different photos of yourself.
Which photo goes where?
Photo 1 is the person seated on the pier who later holds the camera. Photo 2 walks along the pier and sings in every close-up. Swap trades them.
How long can the Raindance AI video be?
5, 10, 15 or 30 seconds. 30 seconds is the whole scene, from the pier to the beach, and runs on Seedance 2.5; the Seedance 2.0 models make up to 15 s.
Can I make it on my phone?
Yes. It runs in the phone browser: upload the two photos from your camera roll and download the MP4. No app to install.
Why doesn't the face look like me?
Usually the photo: too small, side-on, blurry or covered. Use a sharp, front-facing photo with the face filling a good part of the frame, or switch to Seedance 2.5, which holds faces best.
Is this the real Raindance music video?
No. The template is a recreation of the pier scene by an ordinary couple, and your video puts your two faces into it. No footage from the official video is used; the sound is the song, as in the trend.
