you got a friend in me Dave Crosby

After their adorable daddy-daughter duet of Toy Story’s “You’ve Got a Friend in Me” went viral on social media, Ellen DeGeneres invited the duo to perform the song on her talk show.

 

Seattle singing sensations Dave Crosby, 29, and his 4-year-old daughter, Claire, continued to warm hearts and elicit coos with their rendition of the song “You’ve Got a Friend in Me” from the “Toy Story 2” soundtrack.

The dynamic duo most recently appeared Thursday on The Ellen DeGeneres Show and won a trip to Disneyland, a basket full of toys and a new round of fans with her adorable interview answers.

Claire claimed on “Ellen” that she’d been singing for about “a week” prior to the onset of fame and that she loved singing because you can do it “so much.”

The little cutie also said she’s a fan of musician Taylor Swift and the movies “Frozen,” “The Little Mermaid” and “Finding Dory.”

“I like that there’s Dory in it,” she told Ellen, who is the voice actor for Dory. “Yes,” DeGeneres replied. “I love that Dory’s in it, too.”

Crosby, who is a creative director at the Bothell-based drone and camera company Autel Robotics, posted a video of himself and his daughter sitting on a couch together and singing the song on their YouTube channel, Claire and the Crosbys.

In it, the little girl scrunches up her face adorably and lifts her head to hit the high notes. It is very cute, and the video has nearly 150 million views.

“Looking back, I can see that this video shows a casual moment between dad and daughter and I think people must appreciate the authenticity that it brings. Plus you can get an idea of the emotion and toe wiggling that goes on when we play together,” Dave said.

The live performance is sure to bring a smile to your face. Watch the awesome duet perform below:
