Canada's Prime Minister.......Stephen Harper sings Beatles song with Yo Yo Ma



Harper shocked the audience by coming on stage and sitting at a grand piano. With Ma on cello, along with two guitarists and a drummer, they performed the classic Beatles hit, with Harper providing the lead vocals.

CBC's Evan Solomon, who attended the gala, said Harper's performance stunned and wowed the crowd, and received high praise even from members of opposition parties who were also there for the evening.

Next time can Gordon Brown join him on bagpipes? He's got enough wind to play Hay Jude for a very long time!

Good for him.

Maybe now someone will offer him a job as the singing coach for the Toronto Maple Leafs and we'll be done with him for good!

To paraphrase the expression, "One song does not a silk purse make".

Well, he was probably hoping to win some votes by doing that. Still, he did a good job - maybe better than what he is doing as a prime minister.
