Unlikely Duo Celine Dion and Joe Walsh Unite to Play One of the Best Beatles Covers You Have Ever Heard

Joe Walsh and Celine Dion made for an unexpected pairing when they teamed up in 2008 for Dion’s live TV special, *Celine Dion: That’s Just The Woman In Me.* Known for her soulful, heart-wrenching ballads like “My Heart Will Go On” and “Think Twice,” Canadian singer-songwriter Celine Dion seemed worlds apart from Joe Walsh, the multi-instrumentalist best known for his guitar work with the rock band The Eagles. The contrast between the two artists was striking, to say the least.

In the end, the pairing turned out to be a perfect match, delivering a beautifully delicate rendition of George Harrison’s “Something,” which The Beatles released as a double A-side in 1969. Celine brought a feminine touch to the performance, echoing Shirley Bassey’s earlier rendition with a carefree elegance that made her seem almost ethereal. Dressed in a fluffy white gown and stunning thigh-high black boots, Celine captivated the audience with her heavenly presence.

Joe Walsh’s rich and melodic guitar lines perfectly complemented Celine’s vocals, never overshadowing them. When he launched into the iconic solo, he infused it with a country rock flair while staying true to the original. The unique blend of these two distinct artists resulted in a cover that exceeded the expectations of many viewers. One fan even described it as “a masterclass by two legends in honor of a third.”
