Get ready to feel all the emotions! Toni Cornell, the 17-year-old daughter of the amazing singer Chris Cornell, who passed away, performed a beautiful version of Prince’s song “Nothing Compares 2 U” on The Late Late Show yesterday. She sang it with so much heart, dedicating it to her dad, who was super special to her.
Chris Cornell also sang this song for his album “No One Sings Like You Anymore, Vol. 1,” which came out in 2020 after he was gone. That version even got nominated for a Grammy award, which is a big deal in music! Toni wanted to honor her dad with her performance, and it was a touching way to remember him.
Back on Father’s Day in 2018, Toni shared a recording of her and her dad singing “Nothing Compares 2 U” together. They made it before he passed away, and it’s a sweet memory of their time together. All the money from that duet goes to the International Rescue Committee, a group that helps people in need around the world.
You can watch Toni’s emotional performance from the show, and it might make you cry because it’s so beautiful. There’s also a video of Chris Cornell singing the song back in 2015. Both are wonderful ways to hear this special song and feel the love between a dad and his daughter.
