Lady Gaga<\/a>, who helped curate Global Citizen\u2019s One World: Together at Home special<\/a>, brought together iconic vocalists Celine Dion<\/a>, Andrea Bocelli and John Legend<\/a> to sing \u201cThe Prayer.\u201d The song was originally released in 1999 as a duet between Dion and Bocelli.<\/p>\n

The singers were joined by famed pianist Lang Lang for the remote performance. Dion kicked things off, reassuringly delivering the classical song. Gaga and Legend sang select parts while the majority of the tune was handled by its original performers.<\/p>\n

Gaga also performed on her own, covering \u201cSmile,\u201d as made famous by both Charlie Chaplin and Nat King Cole. She performed from behind her white piano with lit candles around her, offering some joy in the midst of the ballad with breaks for jauntier playing. Before her performance, she noted how honored she was to be a part of the World Health Organization and Global Citizen<\/a>. The special helped generate $127 million in donations that will go towards WHO\u2019s efforts to fight COVID-19 around the globe.<\/p>\n
