Toddler joins big sister as backup singer for most adorable duet
Good music always warms the heart. Even in quarantine, a good song can really cheer us up. Many superstar musicians have been going live on social media to perform for their fans. Ordinary individuals have also taken to the internet to share their musical prowess.
One family, in particular, had been posting many videos of the daughter singing to social media. Then, one video took off.
Kelsey Lane Winslow posted Cirsten singing “I’ll Fly Away” with her cute little brother. The duo sings in front of the fireplace and their performance is inspirational!
Many internet challenges have been popularized recently, and this was a singing challenge.
Many people are hopping on the challenge bandwagon, and since everyone is quarantined, it’s a great time for it. Kelsey wanted her daughter to be on a schedule of one video every day.
Kelsey said that the idea came from her mother, and she wrote:
“My mom had asked on Facebook whether or not CJ should sing 1 song a day. The response was amazing so here y’all go”
Cirsten kept the content coming and posted a singing video each day.
She did audio covers of popular tunes such as “Dancing in the Sky,” “Rise Up,” and “Cups.” But on the fifth day, she decided to include her brother and do the viral song.
Get ready to have your heart melted by Cirsten and her younger brother.
In the video, both are dressed in Western gear and the music to “I’ll Fly Away” is playing in the background. While Cirsten is the main vocalist in the performance, she sweetly shares the spotlight with the tot.
This rendition has a little bit of country and a whole lot of cute.
The song “I’ll Fly Away” was a hymn penned by Albert E. Brumley in the late 1920s. Pop artists like Johnny Cash, Alan Jackson, and Joey + Rory all performed it. Rapper Kanye West has even dabbled with the song.
Cirsten has a very distinct musical style that blends perfectly with the genre of the song. You can tell how talented she is when she lets her beautiful voice loose.
The little bro wants to showcase his skills as well!
The young boy definitely looks up to his older sister. He tries to mimic her movements and sing the words just like she does. Then he grabs her hand and she gives him a cute smile.
She finally gives in and starts to dance with him as they sing!
After the viral performance, Kelsey wrote some words about listening to it live:
“My heart is so full right now. We had no expectations for this video to reach so many. It is such a heartfelt moment seeing two of my kids have fun singing together.”
But, that wasn’t the end of the clip!
The little bro runs to get his guitar and then takes a seat on the fireplace and starts strumming. It’s a second of the clip but it gives us hope that the duo will have more content in the future!
Enjoy watching the video for yourself! What a great performance.
