6-Year-Old’s Cover of Beloved Elvis Song Is Hitting Us Right in the Feels
Have you heard of Claire Crosby? She’s been singing for years, and she’s only six years old right now. Her family has a YouTube channel called The Crosby’s. She’s sung many duets with her dad, and she has quite a few impressive solo performances too.
In a new video, Claire takes on a cover of the Elvis song “Can’t Help Falling in Love.” We already know cute little Claire can sing, but this time she also accompanies herself on the ukulele!
She looks pretty unassuming with her braided hair and sweet smile. She sits on the couch looking directly at the camera. She’s a YouTube pro.
She starts out the video simply enough by introducing herself and the song she’s about to sing. Then she looks down at the ukulele and starts strumming. Her facial expressions are so adorable as she sings. She really seems to put feeling and emotion into her voice, even closing her eyes at times.
We have to wonder, what can this 6-year-old girl know about falling in love? Probably nothing, but she sure looks and sounds like she knows something about it.
The video has already been shared over 333K times, and many people are leaving really positive feedback in the comments.
One person wrote, “Claire!!??? That was so sweet and touching. Elvis would have brought you on stage.”
Another person agreed, “I also agree that Elvis would have been so proud of Claire and would have been honored to have her on stage with him singing this song together. He probably would have bent down to her eye level. I can only image how precious that could have been. I believe he is watching her today from heaven and cheering her on.”
How sweet that would have been indeed!
Another comment reads, “My God, could anything else be cuter or sweeter? Makes all the other junk disappear…” We couldn’t agree more. If you need something to brighten your day and make you smile, watching this video just might be it.
What do you think of Claire’s version of “Can’t Help Falling in Love”? Do you think Elvis would have been proud of her performance?
