'American Idol': Joss Stone, Jeff Beck 'Put a Spell on You'
Jeff Beck and Joss Stone delivered one of the most memorable performances of "Idol Gives Back" for 2010. They teamed up for a sultry version of "I Put a Spell on You," which put Stone's smoky voice at the forefront, highlighted by Beck's bluesy and inreasingly intense guitarwork. They were backed by a four-piece band and the Jubilation choir.
The song originated in 1956, written by Screamin' Jay Hawkins, and has been covered famously by Nina Simone and Creedence Clearwater Revival.
We think the Stone/Beck version can stand up to any of those.

Beck and Stone! Thanks Hanh for your informed critique.
Getting harder and harder to hear musicians of this skill and quality. People take note of Jeff Beck, when he's gone we're gonna be stuck with the Peas and others. Beck is one of the best ever to play the guitar.
That performance was TOTALLY awesome. Her voice and his guitar together was incredible.
That was a great performance.
This lady voice is amazing. You don't hear music or singing like this. This is raw talent. Singer take note of this creation.
