A little girl singing an Ellie Goulding song in Sheffield city centre got to meet the star herself - as she happened to be driving by at the time!
Ecclesall dad James Sockett filmed Ellie getting out of the car and listening to the girl performing her track On my Mind - and the video's now gone viral:
The singer later posted the video on instagram, calling the girl a 'little delight'.
She was on the way to perform at Sheffield Arena and seemed to enjoy the performance - even giving the girl a hug afterwards.
James - who was in town with his daughter - posted the video on facebook, saying it was nice to see Ellie going out of her way to spend time with her fans.
"It caught my daughter's eye first because she saw a little girl singing," says James.
"So we headed over and we just watched it for a bit. And then all of a sudden this woman got out of a van and walked up to the girl and said 'do you know who I am?' The little girl just looked starstruck and that's when I realised it was Ellie Goulding.
"So I just grabbed my phone out like you would and started filming! She gave her a hug after. She said 'that's really good'."
