On April 18, music fans around the world were treated to a stunning virtual reunion as Rita Ora and Liam Payne performed their hit duet “For You” during the One World: Together At Home global broadcast event.

Originally recorded for the Fifty Shades Freed soundtrack, “For You” has become one of the most iconic pop collaborations of the last decade. But this stripped-back, emotionally raw performance brought new life to the track, delivered from two different continents and yet connected seamlessly through music.

Liam, broadcasting from a softly lit home studio, opened the performance with his rich, controlled vocals. Rita joined from London, her voice soaring with passion and grace. Despite the physical distance, their harmonies felt as tight and powerful as ever — a reminder of their undeniable musical chemistry.

The One World: Together At Home concert, curated by Global Citizen and the World Health Organization, brought together artists from all over the globe in a historic show of solidarity for frontline workers during the pandemic. In a night filled with stars, Liam and Rita’s performance stood out for its warmth, connection, and beauty.

Fans flooded social media afterward, calling it:

“Pure magic — the best version of ‘For You’ yet.”
“Two voices, one heart. Thank you Liam and Rita!”
“I didn’t realize how much I missed seeing them sing together.”

Their performance wasn’t just a throwback — it was a promise that even in uncertain times, music keeps us united.
