If you watched Friday’s Opening Ceremony for the 2021 Tokyo Olympics you likely caught a glimpse of Keith Urban,  who took part in a pre-recorded performance of John Lennon’s classic “Imagine,” alongside artists like John Legend, Angélique Kidjo, Alejandro Sanz and more.

“It’s just always been there,” Keith shared of the song, in a preview of his Olympics performance. “It’s a spiritual classic. It’s almost more of a hymn than a song. What lyrics stand out to me in the song? Just the ones between the beginning and the end. It’s an amazing song.”
