Elvis has been gone for more than 40 years. But several artists have taken the stage to sing a “duet” with him. Basically, they play a recording of him and sing along with it. Several of the best-known artists in the world have done this. Those include Celine Dion, Martina McBride, and Susan Boyle.

They sing “Just Pretend”

One of the most beloved Elvis songs of all time is “Just Pretend,” and that’s what Helene Fischer decided to sing along to. She contributed to a posthumous Elvis record back in 2016 along with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and recorded the song there. While it’s amazing to hear the recording, it’s even more rewarding if you can see the performance on video.
