A wedding playlist had a mind of its own.
Leidi and Luan Rocha were married outside in Marlborough, Massachusetts, on Sept. 28, by their pastor, Devon Frye. While another pastor was praying over the bride and groom during the intimate ceremony, "Forever" by Chris Brown unexpectedly blasted.
"I rebuke the Chris Brown spirit off of this holy moment…" Frye, 33, wrote in the caption of a clip of the DJ mishap that was posted on TikTok the next day. The singer has a history of controversial behavior.
In the video, the pastor who worked with the Rochas on marriage counseling, began his prayer, saying, "Thank you, Lord..." before being interrupted with the electronic pulse intro of "Forever." As the song loudly played, Frye snapped his eyes open and frowned before smiling. The bride also smiled after she gasped in shock. Meanwhile, the 50 or so guests chuckled off-screen.
The song stopped after a few seconds, but it would take a few more for the giggles to end. The pastor momentarily stumbled over his words but kept the ceremony on track by continuing his prayer, thanking the Lord for His protection and guidance.
The hilarious clip went viral with 15.4 million views and 1.7 million likes.
"The pastor loosing [sic] his place and guiding them multiple times is sending me 💀," an individual commented, with someone else agreeing, "Guy praying was thrown off so bad he’s repeating 😭😭😭😭."

Another top comment reads, "THIS IS UNFORTUNATELY SO FUNNY."
"I said CHRIST, not Chris 🙄😂," one TikTok user teased.
Exclusively speaking with PEOPLE, Frye reflected on the DJ fail, joking, "I thought the DJ that played the song was too ready to party."
He continues, "Everybody laughed and couldn’t keep it together."
