One World: Together At Home highlights: The top 5 performances

Looking to watch the best of One World: Together At Home? Here are some of our favorite performances.

Lady Gaga is always a delight to watch live, and this passionate performance of "Smile" is just the jolt of optimism we need now.

Another cheery anthem we could really use right now, this clip of Elton John performing "I'm Still Standing" in his backyard will get you tapping and bobbing along from home.

This intimate clip of Lizzo singing "A Change is Gonna Come" is a great reminder of the R&B singer's amazing range, and one of the more moving performances of the event.

Proof that we can still collaborate and stay connected in this time of isolation, this beautiful online duet features John Legend and Sam Smith crooning their way through "Stand by Me." 

Perhaps the most emotional performance of the entire night, this stripped-down piano performance of Taylor Swift's "Soon You'll Get Better" is the exact cathartic, optimistic release we all need right now.

How can I watch One World: Together At Home with a VPN?

Everyone should be able to watch One World: Together at Home online from anywhere in the world -- it's in the name! But if you're stuck away from your home and having trouble using the service you already pay for, you don't need to be thwarted by geo-fenced restrictions. With the help of a virtual private network (VPN), you can watch along with the rest of us, no matter where you are. 

Our favorite VPN is ExpressVPN, which is easy to use and delivers fast internet speeds, making it simple to set up for streaming in no time at all. It also works on practically any device, starting with iOS and Android and including streaming devices such as the Amazon Fire TV Stick and Apple TV. Plus, game consoles like PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. 

ExpressVPN

Our favorite VPN service, ExpressVPN, is a top choice for those looking to watch Killing Eve season 3. It's got a solid mix of safety, speed and ease-of-use. Plus, you get an extra 3 months free if you sign up for a year. And, heck, if you've never used a VPN before and are curious and not sure, there's a 30-day money-back guarantee if you just want to give it a try.

YouTube's even got action starting before 8 p.m., and we've embedded their show below:

Sling TV's Happy Hour Across America

We've seen a bunch of odd free TV promotions but Sling TV's Happy Hour Across America is setting a new standard for good ideas. AXS isn't the only big channel in this lineup, as Sling Blue packs AMC, the Food Network, USA, TBS, IFC and Lifetime — all of which become free from 5 p.m. to midnight.
