Nothing is more interesting than when a youngster finds delight in music at an early age, and a one-year-old’s unimaginable love for The Beach Boys‘ famous 1965 single “Barbara Ann” perfectly captures this sentiment. In a social media video that has since gone viral, the one-year-old Ruby can be seen requesting her mom to play the classic tune, to which she dances, claps her hands, and sings along with her heart out.
Ruby’s brilliant performance in the clip captured the attention of many social media users, who have now turned to the comment section to express their awe at the toddler’s exceptional musical ability and the power of music in uniting fans from different generations.

The video shared by the child’s parent on social media has gained traction as many of the viewers could not help but compliment the child’s inherent love of music, making reference to her fantastic ability to identify the syllables, melody, and tempo of the song.
They also mentioned that the toddler has already reached an amazing milestone that many youngsters who are even above her age struggle with, noting that the development points to a bright and hopeful future for the young music lover.
One-year-old Ruby is not the only unlikely fan of “Barbara Ann”
Interestingly, Ruby is not the only unexpected fan of The Beach Boys‘ hit single “Barbara Ann.” Molly, an African Gray parrot, has also gained attention for her love of the song.
A video shared on Tuesday, November 19, 2024, via the TikTok handle @mollythegreybird, the parrot could be seen ordering Alexa to play the track so she could dance and even bop along to the music. The bird’s handler, commenting on her love for the tune, revealed in the caption that Molly is more in love with the song’s intro, which is visible as she requested Alexa to start playing the music from the beginning all over again before it had even ended at least twice in the video.
