Alicia Keys and John Legend joined forces for a powerful cover of the Beatles’ ‘Let It Be’ at ‘The Night That Changed America: A Grammy Salute,’ which premiered last night (Feb. 9) on CBS.
“It’s a song that’s comforted generations with its beauty and its message,” Legend explains before starting to play.
Following the same set that Paul McCartney had in the original video for the song as well as following their signature performance styles, Keys and Legend sit at two grand pianos facing each other. The lauded entertainers take turns singing the track and have moments where they harmonize as well.
Aside from the emotion that they both emit during the performance, the clips of McCartney singing along tug a bit more at the heart strings, making it one of the memorable performances of the evening.
