The trend
What is the I Love the Smiths trend?
"I love the Smiths" is the line from the elevator scene of (500) Days of Summer (2009): Tom stands in a lift with big headphones on, Summer hears the song leaking out and says "I love the Smiths", he pulls the headphones off, "Sorry?", and she says it again. The line has been a TikTok sound for years, with couples acting it out. In early November 2026 an AI version took over: one locked-off two-shot of two people in a dim lift, made with CapCut and Kling templates, and worldwide searches for "i love the smiths" jumped from November 5.
This I Love the Smiths AI video generator re-films that two-shot with your two photos. Photo 1 is the one in the headphones on the left, who pulls them off and says "Sorry?". Photo 2 is the one on the right who says the line, says it again, adds "You have good taste in music" and sings a line of the song. The scene's own dialogue goes under your video, or turn it off and add a sound in TikTok. No footage from the film is used and no one from it appears. ClipRemake is not affiliated with the film, its studio, The Smiths or the creators of the clips; your video is a new AI video.
It is the meet-cute everyone knows from one line: a stranger hears your music and says the band's name. Couples post it as how they met, friends post it about the music they share, and people tag their crush with it.

Photo tips
Best photos for the I Love the Smiths AI video
Who goes where
Box 1 wears the headphones and speaks least; box 2 says the line and sings. With Trend sound the voices are the scene's own (a man on the left, a woman on the right), so put the photos in the order that suits them, or pick AI voices.
Similar light
Two photos taken in soft, even light blend best with the warm, dim lift.

FAQ
I Love the Smiths AI FAQ
Is this the 500 Days of Summer elevator scene AI?
Yes. The I love the Smiths trend, the 500 Days of Summer elevator trend and the Tom and Summer elevator scene are the same moment. This maker puts the two of you in it from two photos; no footage or actor from the film is in your video.
Who says what?
Box 1, on the left, wears the headphones, pulls them off and says "Sorry?" and later "You like the Smiths?". Box 2, on the right, says "I love the Smiths" twice, "You have good taste in music" and sings a line. Swap the photos to swap the parts.
Whose voices are in the video?
With Trend sound on, the voices are the scene's own: a man's "Sorry?" on the left and a woman's lines on the right, whoever is in your photos, and the lips follow those lines. If you swap the parts, or you are two men or two women, turn Trend sound off and add your own sound in TikTok.
Can I make it with just one photo?
Not yet. It takes two photos, one for each place in the lift. A partner, a friend or your crush works, as long as they agreed to be in it.
Why is it landscape?
The AI clip the trend copies is 16:9 with the two of you side by side, so your video is landscape too. TikTok and Reels show it with bars above and below.
How much does it cost?
One video is 10 credits ($9.99). There is no free version, and if a render fails the credits come back automatically.
Can I use a photo of a celebrity or a child?
No. Only photos of adults who agreed to be in the video. Celebrity couples are not allowed.
How do I make the I Love the Smiths AI video?
Add the two photos on this page, the one in the headphones first, and press Remake this. Sign in with Google and pay for one video; about five minutes later the 14-second clip is in My videos.
Is the I Love the Smiths AI free?
No. Every video is a real render that costs money to make, so there is no free version or watermarked preview. One video costs $9.99 (10 credits), and if a render fails the credits come back automatically.
How long does it take?
About five minutes, sometimes a little longer when the queue is busy. You can close the tab; the video waits in My videos.
Is there a watermark?
No. You download a clean MP4 to post on TikTok, Reels or Shorts. Label it as AI-generated when the app asks.
What song is in the I Love the Smiths scene?
The song in the headphones is "There Is a Light That Never Goes Out" by The Smiths, and a line of it is sung in the scene. With Trend sound on, your video carries the scene's own lines; with AI voices, new voices that suit the two of you say them instead.
Do the lips match the voices?
Yes. Your video is first made with the two of you saying every line, then each of the scene's lines is moved to the moment your lips say it, so no line plays over a closed mouth. If a line cannot be matched, your video keeps the AI voices, which always follow the lips.
