Carly Pearce reunited with Michael Bublé during The Voice finale on Monday evening (December 9). The duo took the stage together to perform “Maybe This Christmas,” the heartfelt duet they debuted last month.
Bublé previously said that teaming up with the award-winning country artist on the holiday duet “fell into place so seamlessly it feels like fate had a hand in it. …I wrote a Christmas song for people that might not love Christmas because they’re hurting, because they’re vulnerable, because it’s a tough time for a lot of people. I wanted to write something to give them hope.” Pearce exclaimed in a comment on Instagram after the performance: “this song means so much to us!”
“And all the snow falling down on the city / And the good souls below / It ain't the same when it comes down / And turns into rain / ‘Cause it's Christmas time / You shouldn't be alone / Again / Maybe this Christmas / Don't have to be alone again”
The finale performance took place shortly after Pearce served as Playoff Advisor for Bublé’s team on the hit competition show. Pearce said she’d “always wanted to be able to be a part of something like this,” and offered Team Michael singers praise and helpful advice as they prepared for their next performances. The hummingbird artist, who kicked off her headlining world tour this year, said she “would’ve loved to have been able to just have a conversation with somebody, you know, in this position back when I was getting started. And just to have a cheerleader that understands the process.”
“Since Michael invited me to join him on The Voice, I thought it was only fair to bring him to my favorite stage in the world - the Grand Ole Opry!” Pearce said as she announced the upcoming show on Instagram on Tuesday (December 10). “We are SO excited to be playing together this Sunday, December 15! Don’t forget your cowboy boots, Michael Bublé.”
