Along with three presidents, Ethel Kennedy’s funeral on Wednesday featured three musical superstars: Sting, Kenny Chesney and Stevie Wonder. 

Following a eulogy by former President Clinton, Sting, guitar in hand, made a surprise appearance at the Cathedral of St. Matthew the Apostle in Washington, DC, performing his emotional 1987 hit "Fragile."

"We have a surprise that’s not on the program, but we are incredibly grateful and honored to have a singer who my grandmother loved," Ethel Kennedy’s grandson, Joe Kennedy III, told the funeral attendees. 

"Sounds just like that at our family singalongs, right?" he joked after Sting finished.

President Biden, who spoke at the end of the service, became visibly emotional while listening to the song, later saying that Kennedy reminded him of his own mother. 

Before Sting, country star Kenny Chesney spoke about his friendship with Ethel and her daughter Rory Kennedy and sang "You are My Sunshine."

"The moment I walked into Ethel’s home she and I shared a soulful bond and I have so much gratitude for that friendship," Chesney said before he began singing. "Every time I was around your mother she made me feel great because she felt like sunshine."

He first sang "The Lord’s Prayer" before going into a special rendition of "Isn’t She Lovely" to uproarious applause in which he inserted Ethel’s name into the song and called for the audience to sing along while bringing out his harmonica. 

During his eulogy, Biden joked that Wonder told him if he receives another Grammy, he planned to give it to the president.
