Amusingly, Lonely Island's latest music video, just posted 5 days ago, expresses pretty much this precise sentiment. It's called YOLO and is available at [this video] .
The Lonely Island did a parody song/video about YOLO where they made it about living well, but they took it over the top. [this video] The YOLO phenomenon isn't limited to getting crazy, but it sure seems to be the most common use of it.
Andy Samberg has a hilarious song along these lines, called YOLO. [1] I’m surprised it hasn’t been referenced more during the pandemic, especially when multiple-masking has been discussed. It is also a hilarious and catchy song in its own right. [this video]
