How to Add the Song to Your Choosin’ Texas Emo Video
Last updated: 2026-10-29
The MP4 you download has no audio track. That is deliberate: this site does not host, mix or transcode the original song, so the file ships silent and you attach the official sound inside the app where it is licensed.
It takes about two minutes and needs no editor. If you have not made the clip yet, start with make it from one photo, and read the photo tips before you upload.
Why the file has no audio
The silence is a copyright decision, not a broken file. The recording of “Choosin’ Texas” belongs to its owners, and this site has no license to bundle it into a download.
TikTok and Instagram do have music licenses that cover their own sound libraries. When you pick the official sound inside the app, the platform handles permission for that post. That is the cleanest path, and it is why the silent file is the safer one to hand you.
Add the sound in TikTok
Open TikTok and start a new post with the MP4 from your camera roll.
- Tap Add sound (or the music note) before posting.
- Search “Choosin’ Texas” and pick the emo version you recognise from the trend — the one with the matching lyrics and tempo.
- Line the first strong gesture in the clip up with the beat, then trim if you need to.
- Add a short caption, keep the AI-generated note, and publish.
Add the sound in Instagram Reels
Upload the MP4 as a Reel, then attach the audio before you share it.
- In the Reel editor, tap the audio or music sticker.
- Search for “Choosin’ Texas” and choose the emo cover used in the trend.
- Set the sound’s start point so the first line lands with the opening of the clip.
- Keep the 9:16 frame, keep the AI-generated note, and publish.
What not to do
Three shortcuts create more problems than they save:
- Do not download the original track from a video site and mux it back into the MP4 yourself. That copy is not covered by the platform license, and re-encoding also softens the picture.
- Do not screen-record someone else’s post to borrow their audio. You would be re-uploading their video, not adding a licensed sound.
- Do not post the silent file and promise “sound on” later. The trend only works with the audio attached in the app.
Resources
Go deeper before you post:
- What the trend actually is — where the cover came from and how it spread.
- How the AI tools compare — length, audio and price, side by side.
- Still deciding? Start with one photo and the fixed 15-second template.
FAQ
Why is the download silent?
By design. The site does not license or store the song, so the MP4 ships without an audio track; the official sound is added inside TikTok or Instagram, where the platform covers the music license.
Will the video look worse after I re-upload it?
Pick the file straight from your camera roll, keep it 9:16, and let the app compress it once. Re-encoding it in another editor first is what softens the picture.
Can I use a different song?
Only audio you have the rights to use. The trend sound is the safe choice because the platform license covers it; anything else is your responsibility.
