Reflection (Mulan) - Claire Ryann at 3 Years Old

Claire puts on her Mulan dress and sings Reflection at the Seattle Chinese Gardens. :) Although she plays the part well, in real life Claire is definitely the PERFECT daughter.

Filmed, arranged, and recorded by dad Dave Crosby.

Lyrics:
Look at me,
I will never pass for a perfect bride, or a perfect daughter.
Can it be,
I'm not meant to play this part?
Now I see, that if I were truly to be myself,
I would break my family's heart.

Who is that girl I see, staring straight back at me?
Why is my reflection someone I don't know?
Somehow I cannot hide
Who I am, though I've tried.
When will my reflection show, who I am, inside?
How I pray, that a time will come,
I can free myself, from their expectations
On that day, I'll discover someway to be myself,
and to make my family proud.
They want a docile lamb,
No-one knows who I am.
Must there be a secret me,
I'm forced to hide?
Must I pretend that I am someone else for all time?
When will my reflection show, who I am inside?
When will my reflection show, who I am inside?

We have a future star here, such beautiful diction for a 3year old, also beautiful tones in her vocals and great at holding notes, beautifully in key...
Cant wait to see her grow up into a beautiful artist, shes only 3 and has a lot of great things in her voice, as she grows shes going to get better and better each year she gets older, cant wait to see her voice grow even more.

I can't wait to see this little girl reach the age of 15 or 18 something and how much she will have improved she's gonna be a diva and star!

[AudraBarrella]

Does anyone else think that the way she says "reflection" is completely adorable? No? I'm alone? Ok.

[JJ-yuog]

She emotes so perfectly. How is she so talented? I see an Academy Award and Tony in her future. Most of all, the stability and humility that her parents provide her with are the most admirable and most precious. Please continue to protect and provide for her.
