Four-year-old is ‘moved’ by song, wants to keep listening

Even preschoolers can appreciate the beauty of a sad song.

Four-year-old Jackson really likes the song "Say Something" by A Great Big World featuring Christina Aguilera.

When he started to get weepy while listening, however, his father suggested they change the radio station.

Jackson refused, reassuring his father with a half-hearted thumbs up that he was enjoying the song.

Watch the sweet moment below.

"My four-year old heard the song come on, so I changed it. But he wanted it back on for some reason," Jackson's father, Mark Blitch, writes on YouTube. "Here is the first moment that he has been 'moved.'"

In October, 10-month-old Marie-Lynne Leroux of Val Gagné, Ontario, was brought to tears by her mother's rendition of Rod Stewart's 1988 classic, "My Heart Can't Tell You No."

"No one can explain why, not even I," Amanda told Storyful of her daughter's reaction to the song. "I can sing any other song and do not get the same reaction from her. It's too adorable to keep all to ourselves."

That video went viral, too.

When was the last time a song moved you to tears?
