Viewers who tuned in for the November 20 episode of The Kelly Clarkson Show were given quite the early holiday treat: Clarkson performing an electric cover of Celine Dion’s “All By Myself” for an instantly re-watchable edition of Kellyoke!

The former Voice Coach began the performance by laying her vocals over a simple piano, which was beautiful enough for us to get goosebumps. But when she hit the iconic high note of the song’s soaring chorus as the lead guitar accompanied her, she officially lifted up “All By Myself” into magical territory.

 

She held that note so long, and she didn’t stop there, showing off her unbelievable range until the very last, impossibly high note that defied logic.

Wow. Just… wow. That was a religious experience if there ever was one. This version of “All By Myself” may be the best cover Clarkson’s ever performed.

Also, is it our imagination or were the production values of this performance above and beyond previous Kellyoke songs — it was so theatric!

Although fans of unique covers have surely seen Casper the chihuahua sing “All By Myself” on America’s Got Talent, let’s be honest with ourselves: Nothing quite comes close to the power and emotion Clarkson commits to the iconic song!

(That being said, we wouldn’t be opposed to seeing a Casper/Clarkson duet down the road for pure morbid curiosity’s sake.)

Another episode of The Kelly Clarkson Show, another unforgettable go-round of Kellyoke — and the 42-year-old has blown fans away every time.

Here’s what to know about “All By Myself” by Celine Dion

Originally written in 1975 by Eric Carmen as the first single from his self-titled debut album, Dion recorded her version in 1996 for her fourth English-language studio album, Falling Into You. Fans widely regard Dion’s version as the definitive “All By Myself,” which shows in the song’s commercial success.

The song quickly climbed up the charts, topping Billboard’s U.S.-based Hot Adult Contemporary Tracks, and reached #4 on the Hot 100.

In 2018, Entertainment Focus declared Dion’s “All By Myself” as having “one of the best recorded vocals ever captured.” The reviewer raved about Dion’s singing, citing an emotional listening experience.

“Listening to Dion reach the highs she does on that song is magical and it sends goosebumps down your spine like nothing else can,” they wrote.

On December 14,  Kelly Clarkson joined Garth Brooks on The Kelly Clarkson Show for a heartfelt rendition of “Shallow,” originally performed by Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper in the acclaimed film A Star Is Born. This performance was particularly special as Brooks was promoting his new album Fun, which features a duet of “Shallow” with his wife, Trisha Yearwood. However, Yearwood was unable to attend, leading Clarkson to step in as an impromptu duet partner.

Their cover of “Shallow” showcased both artists’ remarkable vocal talents, blending Clarkson’s powerful, emotive delivery with Brooks’ rich country tones. The song, which explores themes of vulnerability and yearning, resonated deeply with the audience, amplifying the emotional weight of the lyrics. Clarkson’s vocal prowess and Brooks’ skillful guitar accompaniment created a captivating atmosphere, allowing the song to shine in a new light​.

The performance on the show was not just a one-off; it came after Brooks and Yearwood had already performed the song during Brooks’ Facebook Live series earlier that year. Their connection and chemistry were evident as they navigated the poignant lyrics together, transforming the experience into a memorable moment for viewers​.

Clarkson and Brooks’ rendition of “Shallow” was a beautiful homage to the original while highlighting their individual artistry. The performance not only delighted fans of both artists but also underscored the timelessness of the song’s message​

Kelly Clarkson’s August 18, 2023, Las Vegas show became a special family moment when she invited her two kids, River Rose and Remington, onto the stage. At her Bakkt Theater residency at Planet Hollywood, Clarkson was performing her dynamic hit, “Whole Lotta Woman,” when her seven-year-old son Remington joined her. She introduced him to the crowd, proudly noting that he “picked the coolest song for a dude to pick,” which delighted the audience.

Remington’s appearance wasn’t just vocal; he brought energy and confidence, dancing alongside his mom and delivering a memorable performance. Kelly reassured him by saying, “We dance to this all the time at home,” helping him feel at ease in front of the crowd. The audience’s warm response culminated in cheers and applause, with Clarkson affectionately calling out, “Give it up for Remy B!” as they wrapped up the song​.

Clarkson’s daughter, River Rose, also took the stage later that evening to sing “Heartbeat Song,” showing her budding confidence and love for music. The concert marked a meaningful night in Clarkson’s residency and a heartwarming moment of family togetherness, showcasing her deep connection to her children and her unique ability to blend motherhood with her musical career​.

Susan Boyle walked on the 2023 Britain’s Got Talent stage as a special appearance on the final night and stunned fans with an announcement. The Scottish singer, who became famous on BGT in 2009, returned to the show and performed a beautiful rendition of “Les Misérables” alongside the West End cast.

Boyle’s performance was absolutely brilliant, as expected. However, the true shock of the evening came when she revealed that she had suffered a stroke last year. The 62-year-old singer shared this news with the show’s hosts, Dec Donnelly and Ant McPartlin, expressing her joy at being able to return to the stage after fighting hard to regain her voice.

One commented, “The most memorable moment of the final seeing Susan Boyle performing again. I can still remember the looks on the judges faces when she came on back in 2009 and the surprised/stunned look when she sang. Good to see her back and wishing you a healthy return after your stroke.

Boyle’s unforgettable performance of “I Dreamed a Dream” captivated audiences when she first sang it on the show “Britain’s Got Talent” several years ago. After her triumphant return to the stage, Simon Cowell, the show’s creator, praised Boyle and acknowledged the challenges she faced with her health, emphasizing that the show wouldn’t have been the same without her.

 

According to sources, after experiencing a stroke, Susan Boyle underwent rigorous vocal coaching and worked hard to regain clear speech. The health scare left her with muscle weakness, a dropped face, and slurred speech on one side. Despite the challenges, Boyle’s determination and effort over the past year paid off, enabling her to make a triumphant return to the stage and perform the song that marked the beginning of her musical journey.

Keith Urban wowed the audience at a Bee Gees tribute concert with a fantastic cover of ‘To Love Somebody.’ When the song was released, it was described as a “smooth, easy beat ballad” that “should put them right back up there at the top of the Hot 100.”

As Keith Urban sings his cover of “To Love Somebody” from the Bee Gees, a notable audience member sheds a few tears. That person was the legendary band’s lead singer and co-founder, Barry Gibb.

This emotional cover was the crescendo of “Stayin’ Alive: A GRAMMY Salute To The Music Of The Bee Gees.” A night of tribute performances to honor the talented band and its founding member.

And it was not just Keith Urban who appeared for the night. Ed Sheeran, Pentatonix, Demi Lovato, Little Big Town, and Celine Dion contributed. Still, none of those powerhouses hit quite as hard as Keith Urban that night.

For those who are not as familiar with the Bee Gees’ contributions to music, the band of brothers rose to fame in Australia but left an undeniable mark on the global stage.

The Bee Gees grew in popularity with the release of John Travolta’s “Saturday Night Fever.” Alongside hits like “Too Much Heaven” and “Immortality,” many of the songs for the tribute came from that soundtrack.

And even with such a strong setlist, none of the performances compared to Urban’s shiver-inducing cover of “To Love Somebody.” It was made all the more touching as the camera pans across Barry Gibb’s face as he shed a few tears.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It’s rare that you catch Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman performing together. This talented couple, who have been married for years, usually shine in their own individual careers. Fans of Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman have often wished to see the couple perform together on stage, but they knew it was a rare event.

While they have shared the stage before, the couple is known for their privacy, making joint performances a special and uncommon occurrence. However, when they do join forces for a song, it’s a special treat for fans.

The couple then thrilled fans with a second video featuring their duet of “Female,” a moment many had longed to see. Celebrating the Day of the Girl, this performance was a special treat for those who had never witnessed their musical chemistry live.

Seated together at the piano, Keith Urban kicked things off with a gentle melody. Instead of harmonizing as she did in the studio version, Nicole Kidman sang alongside him, adding her voice to the melody. Their collaboration brought a warm, personal touch to the celebration.

The performance becomes even more special as it was filmed by their two gorgeous daughters, Faith and Sunday. The video was officially shared on Keith’s Facebook and quickly went viral.

Fans showered it with praise like “This is so beautiful, please sing together more often, you sound so good together Keith and Nicole and your daughters do a wonderful job of filming together!”

Another added, “This video is one of the sweetest I’ve seen. Keith and Nicole singing together always brings a smile to my face because I know how shy Nicole is about singing. But her beautiful voice blends very well with Keith’s.”

Adam Lambert performed the live debut of “Mad About the Boy” on BBC’s celebrity dance competition, Strictly Come Dancing on Sunday (Oct 9). The American Idol alum performed a mesmerizing jazz standard version of the Noel Coward song. Pro dancers Nikita Kuzmin and Carlos Gu performed a steamy Argentine Tango as Adam performed.

The singer was dressed to the nines, in a ravishing tuxedo, his makeup–and especially eye makeup–beautifully done. Speaking of beautiful, Adam delivered an exquisitely phrased version of the song, expressing all the longing of an unrequited love that dare not speak its name.

Traditionally, female jazz singers like Dinah Washington have performed the song, But Coward, who was closeted like every other gay person of his generation, wrote a piece full of queer longing. Adam is able to bring it the stage as it couldn’t have been during Coward’s lifetime.

The song is the theme of an upcoming Noel Coward biopic coming out next year to mark the 50th anniversary of the legendary artist’s death.

“He wrote it about a man and he was never really able to record it because that would have been too taboo for that time,” Adam said about Coward’s creative intent. “So it’s always been a torch song sung by amazing female vocalists. And when they realized, ‘It’s 2022, we’re going to put this film out,’ they came up with the idea of having a guy sing it as it was really intended.”

“When they asked me to do it, I thought, ‘What a cool opportunity…I haven’t really recorded anything that was sort of jazz-leaning before, but it’s something that I always kind of been interested in,” he noted.

“Mad About the Boy” is the first song Adam released on EastWest Records. The singer recently signed a record deal with the Warner Brothers UK imprint.

Next, Adam will play a Halloween themed residency in Las Vegas and a handful of dates on the West coast later this month.

Adam will return to the judges panel for a second season of the UK singing competition, Starstruck.

Sir Rod Stewart’s a certified charmer, but he won the hearts of fans all over again with this sweet moment onstage with his 94-year-old sister Mary. Sir Rod invited his dear sister onstage to rock out to his sentimental classic “Sailing” at a concert in front of Edinburgh Castle. The English icon and his trio of female backup singers were decked out in captain’s uniforms, and he sang his 1975 hit while hugging his sister as she sang along.

Mary was clearly stoked to be up there, and led the crowd in waving along to the beat of the song, as well as conducting the band after a bit of encouragement from her brother. You could see it meant a lot to both Sir Rod and Mary to sing the nostalgic tune together, and everyone onstage wore big smiles throughout. We are always here for a Sir Rod Stewart performance, and this show was certainly a very special one for the English star.

Sir Rod performed his set next to Edinburgh Castle on July 6, 2023, and 602,000 fans tuned in to watch the performance with his sister on YouTube. Fans discussed their bonds with their siblings below the video and showed their appreciation of the performance with comments like “The love between brother and sister brought tears to my eyes, what a lovely guy Rod is” and “This is so sweet. She must be so proud of her little brother and he is very blessed to still have his 94-year-old sister around.”

Sir Rod sure likes to get the fam involved in his concerts. The English rocker created another memorable moment when he invited his daughter Ruby onstage to perform a duet on his hit “Forever Young.” Just like her dad, Ruby is a natural performer, making for a great show. It probably won’t surprise readers to hear that she also inherited her dad’s talent for singing as well. The performance has a real fun vibe, and watching dad and daughter own the stage together is sure to put a smile on your dial.

Gavin Sutherland wrote “Sailing,” and the song was first recorded by his duo, The Sutherland Brothers, for a June 1972 release. The song was a minor hit for the duo but later gained great exposure when Sir Rod released it on August 8, 1975, as the first single from his sixth solo album, Atlantic Crossing. The English star scored an international hit with the single, and it went to number one in the UK, Ireland, Norway, the Netherlands, and Belgium.
