Christ the Sydney Olympics feel like a lifetime away.

The dawn of the new millennium. The domination by Aussie athletes. The ‘Battler’s Prince’, Fatso the Fat-Arsed Wombat. It was all so goddamn fun.

And while the new millennium has unfortunately turned out to be absolute garbage, we can at least delight in this bizarre reminder of that simpler, far off time of 2000: Nikki Webster, the then-13-year-old star of the opening ceremony, has performed her hit Strawberry Kisses on top of the Sydney Harbour Bridge.

Singing live on Sunrise yesterday morning, the now 29-year-old Webster appeared because Karaoke Climb is inexplicably now a thing and weatherman Sam Mac apparently experienced divine intervention/heatstroke:

“My producer told me about Bridge Climb Karaoke and said we had the opportunity to take one special guest up.

“For some unknown reason, presumably divine intervention, I saw a vision of Nikki Webster flying over the bridge with me just behind her dropping a nine-second rap sequence.”

So go ahead. Watch it, and try not to feel even the smallest, foggiest bit of nostalgic joy.

Although fair warning, Kochie is shown dancing towards the end, so maybe actually just watch the start.

Did you see that?! Fuck, maybe there is a little bit of that 2000 magic out there after all.

If you can handle any more of this insanity, check out the original music vid below.
