Oh my God. I almost cried, too.

[dizzydee]

Probably a fluke, right? I cried anyway.

[underwaterrhymes]

OMG.

ETA - We do not get this reaction from our son when we sing. LOL.

Gah. This made my black heart weep a little.

I must be heartless because I thought the video was a little weird. The baby is very cute, though.

I was about to say the same thing.  Earlier I posted that I don't believe that is why the baby is crying, but it didn't make me cry or anything.  Now if it was a cute little animal???  I would bawl lol

Made me think of the book Many Lives Many Masters.The mom's singing isn't that great, so maybe the baby is crying because she likes Rod Stewart's version. It's sad to see that baby cry.

I think the video is odd and I hate that it is marketed as the baby having a direct reaction to the mom singing.


I DO find it interesting at how the baby is crying. I have never seen a child cry so...adult like and totally silent.

I can see the reaction of the video being odd. My theory is that the mom really likes this song and puts a lot of emotion into it and the baby is picking up on that and reacting for her. KWIM? It is really interesting to see a baby cry so silently and not urgently though.

I didn't even get emotional reaction from him. I figured he hates being in his car seat and starts to cry every time mom looks/walks away from him and starts smiling again when she comes back/looks at him.

My H said that he thinks the woman ate a bunch of garlic and sang right in the baby's face.

That's weird, man! I mean, clearly the kid is reacting on some level to something, but probably not the singing/song itself. I've never seen a baby cry like that, though; not sad, not hurt, but...emotional, and touched and as though trying NOT to cry but not being able to help it.

[mcsangel2]

It said in the article, that this is the only song that the baby reacts to in this way. Mom said doesn't matter what else she sings.

That's exactly what I was thinking too.

This is why it is amazing.

That is not a babies cry.

And that was a happy cry. There were tears but he was happy.

It was weird but utterly adorable.

But....but why is the mom singing a song that she knows will make her baby cry?

I don't get intentionally making your baby cry.

I agree. It kind of freaks me out.

Did you notice how the blurb under the video said something along the lines of wanting to keep this moment between them? 

So she made her daughter cry in order to video it and post it all over the internet.

Right??

I bet she tells people all the time, "Watch this!!!" and then makes her baby cry.

That is the cutest video ever. (heart)

And in a complete 180 from my last thoughts on the subject, it's things like this that make me believe in past lives.

And I can't believe I just admitted that. Fucking hell. lol

You aren't the only one that had that thought.

[wambam]

We are heartless and cold, but my H and I watched this together and laughed. For some reason, we found it boundlessly amusing.

This is where I'm at too. It goes in for far too long.

I thought this was cute yesterday, but the more I thought about it the more I remembered when my nephew went through a phase where every time I sang to him, he cried because it suddenly scared him (I babysat him for fifteen months). The baby in this video doesn't look scared, so I'm probably wrong, but I don't think it's as cute as I did initially.
