The cathedral was bathed in a soft golden glow as two unexpected voices — Susan Boyle and Celine Dion — walked together to the altar at Ozzy Osbourne’s funeral, creating a pairing no one anticipated but everyone would remember forever.
As Celine, draped in a long black veil, began the opening lines of “The Prayer,” her crystalline voice trembled with grief, filling the vast space with a haunting beauty. Moments later, Susan joined in, her humble yet soaring tone blending perfectly, weaving a harmony mourners described as “like heaven opening its gates.”
The powerful moment moved everyone present. Sharon Osbourne buried her face into Kelly’s shoulder, sobbing uncontrollably, overcome by the raw emotion of the tribute. Even the hardest rock icons seated in the front rows lowered their heads, unable to hold back tears. Witnesses recalled the atmosphere as thick with grief and reverence. “It wasn’t just a song — it felt like a blessing, a final goodbye,” one attendee whispered, capturing the sacredness of the moment.
