A 9-year-old boy from Texas has become a viral sensation after his family posted a video of him singing Whitney Houston’s \u00ab\u00a0I Have Nothing.\u00a0\u00bb<\/b>
\nA young boy by the name of Dane Miller is taking the internet by storm this week. The sweet 9-year-old, who has Down\u2019s Syndrome, was recently filmed while riding in the car, singing a classic Whitney Houston song. The video (above) was posted on Facebook and has since gone viral; over 21 million people have viewed the video on Facebook.
\u201cIs this boy not the sweetest thing ever?! He loves to sing \u2764\ufe0f \u2764\ufe0f. Whitney would be proud #getthatboyamic #mynephewDanerocks, \u201d Dane\u2019s aunt posted as the video\u2019s caption.
Dane, who lives in Prosper, Texas, with his family, was filmed by his aunt while singing Houston\u2019s hit song, \u201cI Have Nothing.\u201d As you can see in the video, Dane gets really into the song and really performs it quite well. It\u2019s clear that he\u2019s passionate about music \u2014 and perhaps about Whitney Houston. His mom revealed that her son is a big fan of Taylor Swift, too.
It didn\u2019 t take long for the media to catch wind of this video and ABC News interviewed Dane\u2019s family.
\u201cHe is just very vibrant. He\u2019s very high-functioning so if he hears music, it\u2019s just something that sticks with him. He\u2019s very proud [of the video] . He just smiles and giggles, \u201d Dane\u2019s aunt, Jeanne Miller, told ABC News.
\u201cIt\u2019s crazy, exciting and stressful all at the same time because my phone has been blowing up all day. I go and read the comments and they\u2019 re just so sweet. When we had Dane, we didn\u2019 t know that he had Down syndrome, but it wouldn\u2019 t have mattered. He has been probably the biggest blessing of our lives. He is just so loving and joyful. He is what\u2019s good about this world, \u201d his mom, Danna Miller, said.
Dane now has his very own YouTube channel called \u201cAmazing Dane\u201d where his parents hope to upload more videos of him singing. Up next? \u201cCray Button\u201d by Family Force 5. Stay tuned.
