An Aussie toddler has gone viral on TikTok after her mother posted a video of her belting Benson Boone’s Beautiful Things on Monday, April 15.
Days later, the video of 17-month-old Andi Groom had amassed 342,400 views and 37,200 likes (and counting).
Her mother, Shavaun Groom, said it was a “surprise” to see the video blow up, as she had only posted for her friends and family to see because it was “too cute not to record”.
She described her Queensland family as “musical”.
Mrs Groom’s older brother played bass in a high school band with Caitlyn Shadbolt, who later became a finalist in the sixth season of The X Factor Australia, and popular Australian country music singer.
Mrs Groom said she had grown up taking singing lessons, and played guitar, drums and violin.

Her three daughters have continued the singing legacy.
Little Andi knew the song well as Mrs Groom had been playing it on repeat for her other daughter who “pretty much knows the song word for word” at age four.
Commenters have praised the toddler for her outstanding timing.
