The Philadelphia Phillies are making yet another deep run in the MLB playoffs, and British singer/songwriter Calum Scott is riding the wave along with them.
Scott's remix with Tiesto of Robyn's hit single "Dancing On My Own" recently hit 1 billion streams on Spotify -- and the Phillies adopting it as their postseason theme song the past two years has likely played a significant role.
On Wednesday, Scott posted a video on X, the social media site formerly known as Twitter, thanking his listeners for their support and adding a follow-up post with a shout-out to the Phillies and their fans.
"A HUGE thank you has to go to @Phillies also for making this song their anthem two years running," Scott posted. "It’s an honour boys and I’m incredibly grateful to the players, the club and most importantly the fans."
The Phillies had planned to retire "Dancing On My Own" after last year's run to the World Series, but a midseason slump forced them to reconsider as they looked to get back on track.

Not to suggest the song spurred their turnaround, but the Phillies did play much better down the stretch to secure the top wild-card spot in the National League playoffs.
They've continued dancing through the first two rounds of the postseason, and going into Thursday's Game 3 of the NLCS against the Arizona Diamondbacks, they find themselves two wins away from back-to-back World Series appearances.
