Dad Sweetly Serenades His Daughter With Rascal Flatt’s “I’m Moving On”

Sweet Father Sings Rascal Flatts I'm Moving On to His Beautiful

On September 24, 2018, Danielle Johnson Jones uploaded a one-minute thirty-one-second-long video on Facebook of her husband and their daughter singing along to Rascal Flatts’ “I’m Moving On” and having the time of their lives. 

Dad sang the lyrics in the first thirty seconds while his little girl adorably harmonized with him in babbles and gurgles. When the second part hit, the baby went a bit quieter, intently looking – and probably admiring – at her dad singing her a song. She then softly cooed in between lines, and by the end of the clip, it seemed like she was getting sleepy.

Danielle wrote in the caption, “Daddy and baby girl love to sing together!! He’s going to kill me for posting this!! 🙈” But the more than 14 million views (as of writing) of the heartwarming moment show that they were all glad she “risked” her life for that. The post also garnered over a hundred thousand reactions and earned 19,000 comments – all agreeing that it was such a sweet and precious moment. 

One Facebook user even gave them a really nice idea, writing that they should preserve the clip and replay it when their little girl eventually gets married.

Rascal Flatts’s “I’m Moving On” was written by Phillip White and D. Vincent Williams. The group released the song in October 2001 as their self-titled debut album’s fourth and final single. It actually did well on the charts, reaching number 4 on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart.
