In 2020, Josh Groban dropped his ninth album, *Harmony*, a departure from his usual style as it featured covers of classic tunes from various genres. From Frank Sinatra to Elvis Presley, Groban showcased his versatility by giving each song his own twist.
One standout cover featured Helene Fischer in a duet rendition of The Pretenders’ “I’ll Stand By You,” available on the album’s deluxe edition. The pair transformed the rock ballad into a moving piano piece, capturing the essence of solidarity and support.
Their music video has soared to over 5.5 million views, with fans praising their chemistry and talent. Some even called for a full album of duets from the duo. Though Fischer didn’t appear on other tracks, Groban teamed up with Sara Bareilles for a stirring rendition of Joni Mitchell’s “Both Sides Now.”
Aside from his album, Groban returned to Broadway and earned a Tony Award nomination in 2023 for his role in *Sweeney Todd*. *Harmony* proves Groban’s ability to excel in any musical genre, showcasing his smooth vocals and seamless collaboration with other artists.
