As Ariana begins singing the musical ballad from The Wizard Of Oz, the cute 11-month-old immediately begins welling up.

After letting some tears roll down her cheeks, Pixie then appears to try joining in with the song.

Staring intently at the screen, the teary tot hums over the tune as best she can.

Since the clip went viral, Pixie's mum Bryoney, 31, from Clayton, Staffs, has been shocked by the response.

She said: "I'm not very good on social media because I'm quite a private person but I put the video on Facebook for my friends and family to see.

"Suddenly it was getting shared and liked loads of times. Someone suggested I put it on Twitter."

She added: "I didn't have a clue what I was doing because I had never used Twitter before but I managed to tag Ariana Grande in.

"I wanted her to see it because it's something nice after the horrendous events in Manchester.

"She's been really brave after everything that's happened.

"It's just been mental how many people have seen it now. There have now been 5.2 million views and there's 52,000 comments. We're all just gobsmacked."

Many also admitted that they had also had a little cry while watching the poignant performance.

One Ariana fan said: "If this wasn't me during yesterday I don't know what is."

Another agreed: "Omgosh this has just made me cry all over again".

Ariana recently attracted plenty of praise following her successful One Love tribute concert, which raised more than £2million for the victims of the tragic Manchester terror attack.

As a result, thousands have called for the 23-year-old to be honoured and granted a Freedom of the City.
