This video was shot in 2007, but posted to YouTube in 2007. Somehow, though, footage of this singing toddler just went viral recently. Two-year-old Penelope is just chillin’ in her car seat, singing along to Pearl Jam’s “Elderly Lady Behind the Counter in a Small Town.” And she knows the words of the complex song better than most adults! Time to get this little lady—who must be about 8 now—into a Karaoke competition. Despite getting somewhat distracted by the end of the song (she’s just 2, after all), Penelope has even impressed Pearl Jam. The band posted the video on its Facebook page. Watching a kid this awesome make you want to pop one out yourself!
