Bidding adieu to a pet is just as hard as saying goodbye to a friend. The 2 minute and 45 second viral video of a little girl named Jayla Gleaton singing "679" by Fetty Wap at the funeral of her goldfish named Nemo, just proves how humans can get attached to their animal friends and actually grieve them when they're gone. The video titled "A Fetty Wap Goldfish Funeral," was uploaded on Saturday by Jazmyne Gleaton, who says that she's the little girl's big sister.

Jazmyne's little sister was unable to control her emotions and wept loudly while singing Fetty Wap's “679” on the funeral of Nemo, her pet goldfish. The said video which was posted on YouTube, was shot in the Gleatons' washroom as Nemo was laid to rest. The younger Gleaton girl sang the entire song for Nemo before flushing it down the toilet. Jayla then runs out of the washroom and cries inconsolably.

YouTube users can't seem to get over this touching video. It has since become viral over the Internet and has received over 170,000 views and 600 likes in less than a week. As of this writing, only 18 viewers have given it the thumbs down.

“My little sister had a funeral for her Goldfish Nemo. Their favorite song was 679 by Fetty Wap,” the YouTube video's description read.

Some YouTube users showed their support and lauded the efforts of the little girl by leaving some comments below the video. A YouTube user who goes by the name Astari Kson wrote "Poor baby. This was probably her first experience with death. The big sister tho,"

"Don't worry dear, He' going to the Great Barrier Reef in the Big blue sky . God would never allow him to go to P Sherman, 42 Wallaby Way ☺," ReptarSwagify, another YouTube user, wrote on the comments section.

Meanwhile, YouTube user lecappuccinostudios was interested in the first song that Jazmyne was singing before "679." It was "Goin' Up To Yonder" by Walter Hawkins & The Love Centre Choir. As for YouTube user Sharon Carpenter, she said that the video was heartbreaking. And, Julian Arellano hopes Fetty Wap will see the video and buy the little girl an aquarium.
