The "#nowplaying" meme has captured the ears and fingers of Twitter users who can't stop tweeting about the songs and movies they are listening to and watching on the morning of January 7.

The term "#nowplaying" continues to hold the top position of Twitter's most talked about topics list for the fourth day in a row.

The term "#Onlyagroupiewould" has risen to the second position in the list as people share stories about things only a groupie would do.

For instance, "#onlyagroupiewould follow a celeb to his hotel & wait in the Lobby" said one user. Others commented, "#onlyagroupiewould stand in a group in the club and touch guys butts" and "#OnlyAGroupieWould reply to and [retweet] every single tweet from the next celeb they wanna get with."

Twitter users are also tweeting about the term "#WhatWereYouThinking" on January 7, puzzling over what might have been running through people's minds.
