Watch Ariana Grande’s moving tribute to Aretha Franklin

Alongside emotional tributes from the likes of Missy Elliott, Elton John, Stevie Wonder Lauren Hill (alongside the rest of the music world), Ariana Grande used her scheduled appearance on The Tonight Show last night to deliver a heartfelt performance in memory of Aretha Franklin who passed away yesterday, aged 76.

Joined alongside house band The Roots, Ariana opened Thursday evening’s show with a cover of the Carole King-penned ‘(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman’, showcasing her own young talents against Aretha’s 1967 classic.

Stunning as expected, it seems however that the tribute almost failed to happen, with Grande discussing with producers prior to transmission that she was too emotional to perform. She reportedly left the stage in tears after concluding the song.

Hear Marshmello and Bastille connect for ‘Happier’

Marshmello and Bastille have unveiled their new collaboration ‘Happier’, a poignant jam that acknowledges the uncomfortable truth that loving someone sometimes requires us to step aside so they can find happiness. Bastille frontman Dan Smith penned the song with Steve Mac (Ed Sheeran, Liam Payne, P!nk).

“We wrote ‘Happier’ last year and thought it would be great as a collaboration,” explains Dan Smith, Bastille’s frontman. “We had a lot of fun working on it with Marshmello, who managed to find joy in the melancholy. It’s always good to step into somebody else’s world for a minute.”
