If you haven't heard the song 'Will Grigg's on fire' then where have you been?
Wigan fan Sean Kennedy grabbed the 90s dance tune 'Freed from Desire' by Gala, switched up the lyrics and a social media phenomenon was born.
The tune has even got its own Twitter account that's picked up 21,500 followers... and it's rising fast.
It's all in honour of the Latics and Northern Ireland striker who smashed in 28 goals this season.
This chanting sensation has spread to the football stands after being adopted by the Wigan faithful with the players even singing it on the pitch after securing the League One title earlier this month.
Even Wigan chairman David Sharpe has expressed his admiration for the creative genius of Kennedy who's even been offered a free season ticket.
