We then see the young child praying with his head on the coffin of his late grandmother.Seeing that scene in the video shows us the the grandmother had a great impact on the child.

Tyler’s daughter (The Rob). With the help of schmaltz “queen” Dianne Warren (author of other sappy songs like “How Do I Live” and “Because You Loved Me”), the band was able to perform a piece that was full of gusto and romance, wrapped up by their music video in a melodramatic bow (Farber). “I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing” is a song that Carl Wilson would most certainly find chockfull of “saturated, demonstrative sentiment” (Wilson 54-55).
