Michael Bublé is known for his smooth vocals and timeless charm, but during his recent performance at the Invictus Games, he did something that left the audience in awe—he changed the lyrics of My Way to honor both Prince Harry and King Charles.

The Canadian musician honored Prince Harry as a “visionary” and sent “healing wishes” to King Charles during the performance

Michael Bublé gave Prince Harry his props during a recent performance.

During Friday’s Invictus Games celebrations in Vancouver, Canada, the 48-year-old Grammy winner sang a rendition of Frank Sinatra’s classic hit “My Way,” complete with new lyrics that both praised the Duke of Sussex, 39, for being a “visionary” and offered “healing wishes” to King Charles amid his recent cancer diagnosis.

The performance took place at the One Year to Go Dinner event at Vancouver Convention Center, where Bublé sang the track that was co-written with Paul Anka.

Ahead of the song, he explained that he was happy to show both the Duke and his wife, Meghan Markle, “how beautiful this place is,” referring to his home country of Canada.

“Who knew, dreams can come true, when life tells you, you’re far from finished / Nothing tames, Invictus Games, you play them your way / One man, life-changing plan, he does all he can, he’s a visionary / Our healing wishes for your dad / You’ve earned each day, the right to say, I did it my way,” Bublé then sang.

Bublé previously performed “My Way” both on tour and as a studio version with Andrea Bocelli and Anka, 82, in 2021 off Anka’s Making Memories LP.

In 2022, Bublé opened up to PEOPLE ahead of the release of his album Higher, which included a cover of another Sinatra track, “A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square,” about his job as a performer.

“I’m a protector of the great American songbook, and I know that I stand on the shoulders of my heroes,” Bublé said of covering the greats. “The great American songbook, I think, is the greatest thing that America ever gave to the arts.”

“So the fact that I can be a small part of protecting it and keeping it alive and introducing it to a new generation of people is honestly pretty humbling to me. I will always take it seriously, and I will always do my best to make my heroes proud,” he added.

Bublé’s serenade took place after the musician joined Prince Harry and Meghan, 42, at the Hillcrest Community Centre in Vancouver Friday for some wheelchair curling.

Following his appearance at the Winter Training Camp — before the 2025 Invictus Games kick off for service personnel and veterans in Whistler and Vancouver — the Duke thanked the audience for their “commitment to making Invictus Games Vancouver Whistler 2025 possible.”

“When I am with the Invictus community surrounded by so many brave men and women who have served their countries with distinction, I feel humbled and at home,” he said at the dinner, before toasting the decade anniversary of the Invictus Games.

“The past decade has been a testament to the power of resilience and the unbreakable spirit you all exemplify,” Prince Harry added. “And boy have we had fun on the way! From this trip, I am happy to report the air is thick with excitement, and the best part is, we’re just getting started. The Invictus Games are not just a competition; they’re a way of life, a celebration of the human spirit.”

ALAN JACKSON HAS WON EVERY AWARD IN COUNTRY MUSIC. BUT LAST NIGHT, HIS DAUGHTER GAVE HIM THE ONE TROPHY HE NEVER HAD. At a sold-out stadium, the country legend didn’t take the final spotlight. Alan Jackson stepped back into the shadows and watched his daughter, Mattie Denise Jackson, walk to center stage. 50 years of hits. Countless awards. Every stage conquered. But watching his own blood command the roar of thousands — that was the one moment his legacy was still missing. The resemblance wasn’t just in the eyes. It was in the soul. As they leaned into a raw, acoustic-driven performance, the crowd forgot they were watching a legend. They were watching a father realize his greatest legacy wasn’t written in trophies — it was standing right in front of him. Then came the moment no one expected. Alan removed something meaningful from his own set and placed it into Mattie’s hands. What he did next left the entire stadium in absolute silence — and what Mattie Denise Jackson whispered back to her father might be the most powerful thing you’ll hear all week.
