Jax wrote a song for her dad

August 3, 2024 9:09 AM

I wrote a song about my dad getting older - Jax and her dad in the car. One of several charming and heartwarming songs/shorts by Jax. Recently discovered by me - though she has 3M followers on YouTube and 14M on TikTok. Enjoyable content for enjoyment.

I told my friends my babysitter was TikTok famous but they called me a liar
Responding to a Hater
Trying to teach Nickelback how to use Tiktok
We wrote a song for Granny Hawk Tua (with Hailey Welch)
I wrote a song called Victoria’s Secret and I always wanted to be part of a Flash Mob

i choose violence

I've been meaning to listen to more of her stuff ever since that wonderful Victoria's Secret song came out, so thanks for the post.

My word this kid is amazing. I had heard Victoria's Secret but not the others... thank you so much for this.
This wrecked me (in the best way):
I need a man who loves me like my father loves my mom

Sorry, foxtongue, I probably should have put a note that “i choose violence” is not a lighthearted one like the others. That was actually the first video I saw from Jax, and I watched it three times in a row. I thought about posting it but when I saw the dad one that seemed better and then found the other short ones.

Oh, this one is good too: the new girl is a snake

I am not a programming language -
I'm not functional or pure -
But I've got a lot of sharp bits
That I'm learning to endure.
