Kids Singing in Rock Band

I love poking around YouTube for videos of kids using games. Since I briefly talked about kids and singing games in my GDC presentation, I thought I'd share some of the more amusing videos I've found.

Remember that the research says that kids around 3-4 years of age will generally follow the melodic contour, but they won't always hit the right notes and often won't pronounce words intelligibly.

He's actually quite good (better than me...) but it also makes me laugh when he swings his arms out and takes the microphone away from his mouth.

She's good too, although I really can't understand any of the words. (I think that might be a product of the song more so than about the child's skills!)

I looooove when he sings "I close my eyes..." Be sure to check out around 3:30 in the video, too. Totally rock star!
