It’ll be a day of (Disney) remembrance for Miguel…
The 34-year-old half-Mexican American singer will take part in ABC’s The Disney Family Singalong: Volume II.
Miguel will perform “Remember Me,” the song he recorded for the soundtrack to the Dia de los Muertos-themed animated feature Coco.
Miguel’s version of the song appeared at the end of the film. He also performed a Spanish-English duet of the track with Natalia Lafourcade entitled “Recuérdame.”
“Remember Me” earned a Grammy nomination for Best Song Written for Visual Media.
Shakira, meantime, is set to perform “Try Everything” during the sing-along special. She recorded the Grammy-nominated song for Disney’s Zootopia.
The 43-year-old Colombian superstar voiced the character of Gazellein the film, and her character performed the track in the end credits.
Other artists recruited by Disney for the special, to be broadcast during the Mother’s Day, include Donald Glover, Halsey, Ben Platt and Chloe x Halle.
Audiences will be able to stream The Disney Family Singalong: Volume II on Disney+at a later, unconfirmed date.
The musical special plans to not just celebrate families, but nourish them too by raising awareness for Feeding America’s COVID-19 Response Fund, which supports people across the U.S. facing hunger amid the pandemic.
The first edition of the musical special saw big-time prime-time ratings, with 10.3 million viewers tuning in to Ariana Grande‘s spellbound “I Won’t Say I’m in Love” coverfrom Hercules, Beyoncé‘s surprise heartwarming rendition of “When You Wish Upon a Star“and more.
