What Do You Think of This Video (Father and Daughter Sing "Home").

[Freudian_Slit]

Didn’t like it. Thought it was cheesy. I looked up the original version of the song and didn’t like that much better either, though.

I liked it quite a lot. The little girl was adorable, and they both seemed to be really enjoying themselves.

Having now read through the posts here, I’m surprised at the reactions to the girl’s voice. She’s 3 or 4, and she sings like a 3 or 4 year old. There’s nothing at all wrong with her voice.

What I loved was the relationship between the father and his daughter. The girl is so confident and comfortable singing with her dad. She should win an award for the most confident person in a purple snowman shirt.

Meanwhile, the dad looks very approving and appears so comfortable with the little girl being herself. That’s probably were all her confidence comes from. Their’s nothing in the way the father looks or interacts with his child that says “you’re not good enough”.

Perhaps I’m very lucky in that I don’t see that as remarkable in any way. To me, that’s “normal”; that’s how dads are supposed to be with their children. The only thing slightly not-ordinary for this particular family is that the dad is a pretty ok amateur musician and they put their home videos on YouTube.

Absolutely adorable.
It’s not an audition tape for a record contract - it’s a cute, homemade video of a father, with some musical ability, and his daughter…

@Shodan

It’s a little kid singing with her daddy. What’s not to love?

@Mean_Mr.Mustard

Loved it. So the girl doesn’t sing like Susan Boyle, who cares? It is not her voice, it is the earnestness with which she sings her part is that makes this so watch-able.

I agree with all of the above posters. It’s just an adorable little girl singing with her daddy. It makes me happy.

If they were promoting this, trying to make a platinum record or something, I’d say “Boo, thumbs down,” but they’re not. They’re just having fun.

[MysteryFellow63427]

Meh. Cute, touching, and I don’t care.

This, and it’s cute when she finally breaks into a smile, rather than looking so serious. Loved it.

Yes. At around 1:02, the Dad turns to her and smiles, and she smiles back.

[JRDelirious]

It’s a family moment they felt like sharing. Why should I judge it?

[Don_t_Panic]

I think the guy is pretty good at playing the guitar upside down (as he’s left-handed, obviously).

[not_what_you_d_expect]

I loved it, but I’m a sucker for this kind of thing anyway. That she kept singing through the yawn was pretty cute.

No, there’s nothing wrong at all. She sings like a 3 or 4 year old. Which is why I turned it off after 30 seconds. Like I said, nice moment, nice parent-child dynamic, but I just don’t really care.

[Critical1]

you forgot the F*%$#ing Adorable option.
no shes not super talented but whatever, its cute as hell.

[BigT]

I like the dad’s voice, and kept it on while it while reading this thread. I also wanted to point out that that’s the type of whistling I was talking about in the whistling thread. I want to learn how to do that, as you can get much higher that way.

I’m sorry, I appear to have melted into a puddle of awwww

You’ll have to wait for a comment until I’ve reconstituted.
