"Halo" is a song recorded by American singer Beyoncé for her third studio album, I Am... Sasha Fierce (2008). Included on the I Am... disc, it was intended to give a behind-the-scenes glimpse of Beyoncé's life, stripped of her make-up and celebrity trappings. Columbia Records released the song, the album's fourth single, to mainstream radio in the United States on January 20, 2009, and to international markets from February 20. Inspired by Ray LaMontagne's 2004 song "Shelter," "Halo" was written and composed by Ryan Tedder, Evan Bogart, and Beyoncé herself. It was conceived by Tedder and Nealante' specifically for Beyoncé, although there was media speculation that it had been intended for Leona Lewis.

"Halo" is a pop power ballad, the lyrics of which describe a sublime love. It features drum, piano, keyboard, string, synthesizer, and percussion instrumentation. The song faced a controversy when Kelly Clarkson claimed that Tedder had reused the musical arrangement in her own 2009 song "Already Gone." "Halo" received positive reviews from music critics, who made comparisons with Lewis's 2007 song "Bleeding Love." Its production and Beyoncé's emotional vocals also received critical praise. "Halo" was nominated for Record of the Year and won Best Female Pop Vocal Performance at the 52nd Grammy Awards. It won Best Song at the 2009 MTV Europe Music Awards. "Halo" topped the singles charts of Brazil, Norway, and Slovakia, and reached the top five on the singles chart of Australia, Germany, Ireland, Italy, New Zealand, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, and the US. It has received over ten certifications including a seven-times platinum certification from Australia and a double-platinum from Spain, the United Kingdom and the United States.

Philip Andelman directed the ballad's accompanying music video, which features American actor Michael Ealy. It portrays a romantic relationship between Beyoncé's and Ealy's characters. Critics complimented Beyoncé's looks in the clip. An alternative music video, which shows Ealy's character being chased by police through a forest at night, was posted on the Internet in May 2010. The lyrics to "Halo" were changed for two of Beyoncé's special live performances: in a tribute to Michael Jackson following his death, and in a tribute to the victims of the 2010 Haiti earthquake. The song has been covered by many artists, including Florence and the Machine, Harper Blynn, and Westlife. It was performed on the television show Glee, and was added to the international soundtrack of the Brazilian soap opera India – A Love Story.

Writing and production

"Halo" was composed by Ryan Tedder, lead vocalist of OneRepublic, together with Evan "Kidd" Bogart and Beyoncé.[1] In an interview for HitQuarters, Kidd narrated the events that led to writing the song. OneRepublic canceled their tour after Tedder had broken his Achilles tendon and had undergone surgery. The following day, the band sent Tedder to Los Angeles. There, he and Kidd were socializing when Tedder expressed his desire to write a song. Kidd was initially opposed to the idea because Tedder was supposed to be recuperating, but the pair went to Tedder's studio. During the writing sessions, singer Ray LaMontagne was the primary inspiration for "Halo". Kidd suggested they create a song in the style of LaMontagne's "Shelter" for Beyoncé and her husband Jay-Z, and proposed the title "Halo" after hearing Tedder play "angelic" chords. They wrote the song in three hours.[1][2]

According to Simon Cowell, owner of the music production company Syco Entertainment, Bogart and Tedder intended "Halo" for his client, singer Leona Lewis, who could not record the song because of her tight schedule.[1][3] Cowell was upset that Beyoncé chose to record the song.[1] David Balls, editor of the British media website Digital Spy, asked Tedder during an interview whether "Halo" had initially been written for Lewis.[7] Tedder answered that he had only tentatively offered the track to Lewis, after Beyoncé waited a long time before recording it.[4] He commented:

There was this huge scandal that originally "Halo" was meant to go to Leona. That was never the case ... That song was written for Beyoncé. What happened was that Beyoncé waited long enough to record that song ... I thought this would be a brilliant first single for Leona, which it would have ... What I did was foolishly say to Leona's camp, "I have it on hold for another A-list artist and I'm pretty sure they'll take it, but if they don't, I just want to know if you like it enough to consider it". I sent it to them and they flipped on it. They loved it and instantly said they wanted to do it. I was like, "Wait, wait, wait, no, it's not free yet!"[4]

Tedder and Beyoncé produced "Halo" in 2008 at Los Angeles' Manfield Studios, and at New York City's Germano and Roc The Mic Studios.[1][5] Tedder did the musical arrangements and played the instruments, while Christian Baker assisted in recording the music. Mark "Spike" Stent mixed the track with assistance from Matt Green, and Jim Caruana recorded Beyoncé's vocals; both these tasks were done at Roc the Mic Studios.[6] "Halo" is present on the I Am... disc of the double album I Am... Sasha Fierce, as it is a ballad that shows Beyoncé's insecurities about love,[13][7][8] and the person she is "underneath all the makeup, underneath the lights and underneath all the exciting star drama".[16] Beyoncé has said that she loves singing ballads because, "... the music and the emotion in the story is told {{sic}} so much better. It's a better connection because you can hear it and it's not all these other distractions. I really wanted people to hear my voice and hear what I had to say."[9]

Composition and lyrical interpretation

{{Listen
| filename = halo.ogg
| title = "Halo"
| description = A 26-second sample of the third and final pre-chorus and chorus of "Halo", which include R&B undertones, sweeping strings, and percussive step sounds.[18][19][20] Towards the end, Beyoncé echoes, "Ha-lo, ha-lo, ha-lo", which is similar to the way Rihanna ricochets, "eh eh eh", on the chorus of "Umbrella".[16][22]
|pos=left}}

"Halo" is a contemporary downtempo power ballad[23][24] that features a pop production.[18] It has elements of gospel and soul music.[23][27] Instrumentation is provided by a piano,[10] a keyboard,[29] big drums,[11] a synthesizer,[31] strings, and percussion instruments.[19] The cascading piano work[12] is accompanied by percussive beats that alternate between handclaps and foot stomps.[19][10][13] "Halo" was composed using common time in the key of A major, with a tempo of 84 beats per minute.[29] It is built on the chord progression A–Bm–F{{music|sharp}}m–D, and is written in the common verse–chorus form.[14] Beyoncé's vocals span from C{{music|sharp}}3 to the head voice note of F{{music|sharp}}5,[14] incorporate melisma,[15] and are supported by backing vocals.[14] She ornaments her singing with vibrato yelps and trills[13]—rapid alternations between two adjacent notes, usually a semitone or tone apart. The arrangement also consists of symphonic crescendos and electronic accents.[16]

In "Halo", Beyoncé professes her all-encompassing love to her heavenly lover with open-hearted emotion.[10][16][46] She said, "['Halo'] is angelic ... like you see [angels'] faces instantly when you hear it. [Its lyrics] are basically saying that I had these walls built up about love; you completely tore them down and when I look at you I see your halo, it's really beautiful."[47] Backed by a piano, claps and step stomps that set a spiritualized atmosphere,[10][13] Beyoncé opens the song

with the lines: "Remember those walls I built? Well, baby, they're tumbling down".[16] She sings the introduction in a low register, and the power of her voice gradually increases as the song progresses.[16] In the pre-chorus, she chants, "Everywhere I'm looking now, I'm surrounded by your embrace, baby I can see your halo, you know you're my saving grace, you're everything I need and more, it's written all over your face".[7][24] Beyoncé then echoes the word "halo" in the chorus;[16] the third and final one is preceded by a 1980s drum breakdown, and is complemented by sweeping strings and percussion.[19][17]

Release

"Halo" and "Ego" were initially planned for simultaneous release in the US, following the 2008 dual lead singles "If I Were a Boy" and "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)".[7] But the release of "Ego" was canceled and replaced with "Diva".[18] "Halo" was taken from a different disc of I Am... Sasha Fierce to "Diva"; the intention was to demonstrate the concept that Beyoncé has conflicting personalities—the central theme of the album.[18][19][61] The motif was demonstrated by placing the album's ballads and uptempo tracks on separate discs.[16][61] "Halo" was sent by Music World Entertainment and Columbia Records to contemporary hit radio playlists on January 20, 2009,[20] while "Diva" was classified for rhythmic contemporary and urban contemporary radio playlists.[21][22] A digital extended play (EP) containing a radio edit and four remixes of "Halo" was later released on April 14, 2009.[23]

On February 20, 2009, "Halo" was released as a two-track digital download, including a remix of "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)" in Australia,[24] New Zealand,[25] and Canada[26]—where the song was also made available on a digital EP, as a maxi single and a vinyl single on April 14, 2009.[27][28] In France, it was released as a stand-alone digital download on March 20, 2009.[29] On the same date, "Halo" was serviced digitally alongside the album version of "Diva" in mainland Europe,[30] including Germany,[31] where it was also made available as a CD single on April 3 and a vinyl single on April 12, 2009.[32][33] In the United Kingdom, a digital EP containing the album version and three remixes of "Halo" was released on April 13, 2009.[34][35]

Kelly Clarkson accusations against Ryan Tedder

Soon after composing "Halo", Tedder worked with Kelly Clarkson on her fourth studio album, All I Ever Wanted (2009), for which they wrote "Already Gone" together.[80] When the song came out, critics noted a resemblance to Beyoncé's "Halo".[81] Clarkson, however, initially stated that she was unaware of any similarities between the two songs.[82] She eventually realized their resemblance when she listened to both recordings closely; the similarities are most notable in the backing tracks, which in both cases feature a melancholy piano, loud drums, and handclaps.[36] Clarkson tried to prevent "Already Gone" from being included on All I Ever Wanted, but it was impossible to make last minute changes, as her album was already being printed when I Am... Sasha Fierce was released.[80] She accused Tedder of using the same arrangement on both "Already Gone" and "Halo", and complained that people would, incorrectly, assume she was stealing it from Beyoncé.[37]

Clarkson was furious, and confronted Tedder on the phone.[37] In response, Tedder commented that he would never give two artists the same musical arrangement, and that her criticism was "hurtful and absurd".[87] He asserted that the concept, melodies, and lyrics of "Already Gone" and "Halo" are completely different.[87] Calling "Already Gone" one of the best songs he had ever composed, Tedder challenged people to "listen [to the two ballads] and form their own opinions".[38] Clarkson also tried to stop her label, RCA, from releasing "Already Gone" as a single because she respected Beyoncé,[39] but they went against her will and released it.[37] She said, "It's one of those things I have no control over. I already made my album. At this point, the record company can do whatever they want with it."[40] Clarkson later told James Montgomery of MTV News that it was unfortunate "Already Gone" and "Halo" sound so similar, but noted that at least they have different vocal melodies.[41]

Critical reception

Christian Williams of Billboard magazine wrote that the pop sound of "Halo" should take it to the top of the charts.[18] He added that comparisons could be made to Lewis' "Bleeding Love" (2007), but concluded that "Halo" "hangs high on its own merits".[42] Michael Slezak of Entertainment Weekly described "Halo" as "an absolutely glorious and perfectly produced track", which had the potential to be as commercially successful as "Crazy in Love" (2003) and "Irreplaceable" (2007).[43] Joey Guerra of the Houston Chronicle wrote that it was an immediate standout on I Am... Sasha Fierce.[16] Praising the "big and wide" melodies of "Halo", Matos Michaelangelo of The A.V. Club commented that Beyoncé has "a real flair for grandeur".[44] Jennifer Cady of E! Online wrote that the song could be included on a romantic mixtape,[99] and James Montgomery of MTV News noted that the "tear-jerking power" of "Halo" reveals "sides of Beyoncé we never knew existed".[45] Ryan Dombal of Pitchfork wrote that Beyoncé's vocal delivery was "strident and exposed", reminiscent of Céline Dion's style.[46]

In spite of what he called the "garden-variety lyrics" of the ballad, James Reed of The Boston Globe wrote that "Halo" was "the most evocative power ballad" recorded by Beyoncé, comparing it to the work done by American record producer and songwriter Phil Spector on his Wall of Sound mixing board.[47] Critics have highlighted the similarities of "Halo" to Rihanna's "Umbrella" (2007); Alexis Petridis of The Guardian noted that "Halo" has the same "icy synths, drivetime rock dynamic, and a similar repetitive chorus".[48] This view was echoed by Jennifer Vineyard of MTV News[49] and Brent DiCrescenzo of Timeout, who viewed "Halo" as a "Bette Midler–level hymn from ['Umbrella'], lift[ing its] savior theme".[50] Nick Levine of Digital Spy described "Halo" as a "muscular hybrid" of "Umbrella" and Lewis' "Bleeding Love".[51] David Balls of the same website wrote, "Halo' is a contemporary power ballad in the 'Bleeding Love' mould ... Could Lewis have pulled this off better? Well, that's a matter of opinion of course, but Mrs. Jay-Z doesn't leave much room for improvement."[52]

Accolades

"Halo" was nominated for Best Single at the 2009 Urban Music Awards,[53] and for Best Love Song at the 2009 Teen Choice Awards.[54] It won Best Song at the MTV Europe Music Awards 2009.[55] The ballad was placed at number seven of Rap-Up{{'}}s list of the 25 best songs of 2009.[56] "Halo" was nominated at the 52nd Grammy Awards in the categories of Record of the Year and Best Female Pop Vocal Performance, winning the latter.[57] It also won Best Foreign Song at the 2010 Croatian Porin Awards.[58] The live version of "Halo", featured on An Intimate Performance at Wynn Las Vegas (2009), was nominated for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance at the 53rd Grammy Awards.[59][60] The American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) recognized "Halo" as one of the most performed songs of 2009 at the 27th ASCAP Pop Music Awards.[61] On the occasion of Beyoncé's thirtieth birthday, Erika Ramirez and Jason Lipshutz of Billboard magazine placed the ballad at number 18 on their list of Beyoncé's 30 biggest Billboard hits.[2] On The Village Voice{{'}} year-end Pazz & Jop singles list, "Halo" was ranked at numbers 443 and 114 in 2008 and 2009 respectively.[62][63] In 2013, John Boone and Jennifer Cady of E! Online placed the song at number three on their list of ten best Beyoncé's songs writing that other power ballads "don't come more powerful than this one, which finds Beyoncé belting alongside what sounds to be every instrument in the entire world (including a dope one-second drum solo)".[64] Consequence of Sound named "Halo" the 23rd best song of 2009.[65]

Chart performance

"Halo" debuted at number 93 in the US Billboard Hot 100 chart issue dated February 7, 2009.[66] It peaked at number 5 in the chart issue dated May 23, 2009.[67] "Halo"{{'}}s US success helped Beyoncé achieve more top 10 singles on the Hot 100 chart than any other female artist during 2001–10.[68] After spending 30 weeks in the top 40 of the Hot 100 chart, "Halo" last charted on the week ending August 29, 2009.[69] It peaked at number 2 on the US Pop Songs chart, behind "Boom Boom Pow" by The Black Eyed Peas, at number 1 on the US Hot Dance Club Songs chart, and at number 16 on the US Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart.[70] On January 5, 2010, the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) certified the single double-platinum, denoting sales of two million copies.[71]

The ballad peaked at number 3 for four non-consecutive weeks, and spent a total of 36 weeks in the top 50.[74] The Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) certified "Halo" septuple-platinum for selling 490,000 copies.[75] On the Spanish Singles Chart, "Halo" debuted at number 45 on January 25, 2009, but it fell off the chart the following week.[76] However, the song re-entered the chart four months later on May 3, 2009, at number 44, and reached a high point of number 5 on October 11, 2009.[76] It was certified double-platinum by the Productores de Música de España (PROMUSICAE), indicating sales of 80,000 copies.[77]

"Halo" entered the UK Singles Chart at number 98 for the week ending February 21, 2009;[78] over a period of seven weeks, it climbed to number 4 on March 29, 2009 (for the week ending April 4, 2009). It spent almost one year in the top 100 of UK Singles Chart; 44 non-consecutive weeks after its debut, it was at number 94 on March 4, 2012, before dropping out the following week. As of July 2013, it had sold 650,000 copies in the UK and was her fourth biggest selling single there.[79] In May 2018, the song was certified double-platinum by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) denoting 1,200,000 units in the U.K., making it Beyoncé's biggest song in the country.[80] It debuted on the Irish Singles Chart at number 32 on January 22, 2009,[81] and peaked at number 4 for three consecutive weeks.[82] "Halo" topped the Brasil Billboard Hot 100 chart for more than 20 consecutive weeks in 2009.[83] It emerged as the most listened to song on radio in Brazil during the same period as it registered 24,734 plays on radio stations throughout the country.[84] "Halo" was also the most downloaded song in Brazil from November 2009 to November 2010, as highlighted by the first edition of the Brazilian Digital Music Awards.[85]

Music videos

The accompanying music videos for "Halo" and "Diva" premiered simultaneously on the US iTunes Store on December 23, 2008.[43] Shot in late November 2008 in a SoHo townhouse owned by Beyoncé, the video was directed by Philip Andelman and features actor Michael Ealy as Beyoncé's love interest.[18][86][148] Ealy was happy to work with Beyoncé, as he had loved the song immediately after hearing it.[149] This was the second time he was asked to star in a video for a song by Beyoncé; the first was "Irreplaceable", which he had refused because he did not appreciate its theme and concept.[149] He had advised Beyoncé: "Call me when you have a hero role."[87]

The video, which Beyoncé has considered intimate and romantic,[88] begins as she stands against a wall, illuminated by light that passes through a window. In one scene, Beyoncé's character, dressed in a skin-tight leotard, performs a dance sequence while her love interest looks down at her from a balcony. According to Michael Slezak of Entertainment Weekly, the dance routines pay homage to the 1983 romantic drama film Flashdance.[43] Beyoncé and Ealy later stare adoringly at each other as they snuggle on a sofa. During the climax of the video, Beyoncé is shown underwater, dressed in white, moving slowly upwards. As the chorus begins, she opens her eyes; after Ealy kisses the back of her neck, the pair come face to face in the final scene, in which Beyoncé lies in bed, with Ealy above her. Jennifer Cady of E! Online wrote that the bright shiny lights in the video "make [Beyoncé] look like an angel".[89] Alison Maloney of The Sun praised Beyoncé's "amazing figure".[90] The video was ranked at number 74 on BET's Notarized: Top 100 Videos of 2009 countdown.[91]

An alternative video surfaced online in late May 2010, explaining why Beyoncé's character was remembering her love interest in the original version.[148] It begins with a view of the night sky and many trees, as Beyoncé drives a car and Ealy's character is chased by the police through a forest. As the video progresses, she parks her car on the side of the road and scenes from the original version are shown. Police dogs eventually catch Ealy's character and attack him savagely. An open bag reveals stolen money, which is dispersed by the wind. At the end of the video, in the forest, Beyoncé finds Ealy lying lifelessly on the ground.[93]

Live performances

Beyoncé's first live performance of "Halo" was at the NAACP Awards on February 12, 2009.[94][95] Wearing a white gown, she sang the ballad while archival footage from the Civil Rights Movement was shown on many screens in the background.[94] Brennan Williams of Entertainment Newswire wrote that Beyoncé's "breathtaking performance" showed why she received the 2009 NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Female Artist.[94] She also sang "Halo" on the Late Show with David Letterman on April 22, 2009,[96][97] and on The Today Show the following day.[98] The song was later added to the set list of her I Am... Tour in 2009–10,[99][100] when it was performed during the concert's encore.[99][100] After Beyoncé finished her "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)" performance, she sang "Halo". She initially sang the ballad on stage before descending to shake hands with everybody in the front rows.[100] Deborah McAleese and Lauren Mulvenny of The Belfast Telegraph commented that the ballad "was sung with great passion".[101] It was included on her CD/DVD live albums I Am... Yours: An Intimate Performance at Wynn Las Vegas[102] and I Am... World Tour (2010).[103] Beyoncé performed "Halo" live, as the closing song at the 2011 Glastonbury Festival, in front of an audience of more than 175,000.[104] During the ITV special A Night With Beyoncé, which aired on December 4, 2011 in the UK, she sang the ballad to a selected crowd of fans.[105]

On June 25, 2009, American entertainer Michael Jackson died while Beyoncé was touring.[177] His death led her to perform tributes to Jackson at tour venues, including Atlanta, Georgia[106] on July 1, 2009;[107] and New Orleans, Louisiana on July 3, 2009.[108] During the tribute, an image of Jackson was shown on the main screen. As Beyoncé sang an emotional rendition of "Halo", she changed the lyrics to "Michael I can see your Halo / I pray your music won't fade away".[108] On January 12, 2010, Haiti was struck by an earthquake. A charity telethon called A Global Benefit for Earthquake Relief took place on January 22, 2010, in which many artists, including Beyoncé, participated.[109][110] She performed an acoustic version of "Halo" with Coldplay's lead vocalist Chris Martin playing the piano.[109][111] To make the song match the night's purpose,[112] Beyoncé weaved "Haiti" into its lyrics, singing "Haiti, we can see your halo / You know you're my saving grace / You're everything I need and more, it's written all over your face / Haiti, we can see your halo / I pray you won't fade away".[187] This version was included on the 2010 live album Hope for Haiti Now.[113]

On February 11, 2012, American recording artist Whitney Houston died. After her death, Beyoncé performed a tribute for Houston during her revue Beyoncé Live in May 2012, at the Revel resort in Atlantic City, New Jersey.[189][114] Wearing a red dress,[115] Beyoncé began the performance of "Halo" singing the first verse of Whitney Houston's "I Will Always Love You".[114] Maura Johnston of The Village Voice praised the performance noting that the song was "given an explosive coda" which showed how "the most basically structured song by one of pop's most template-hewing songwriters... could be turned into something glorious with the right singer."[114][116] While reviewing the revue, Kyle Anderson of Entertainment Weekly wrote that "the most attention-grabbing moments of the night... came when she dipped into other artists' catalogs".[117] Ben Ratliff of The New York Times mentioned the song in the "almost continuous high point" of the concert.[118] On February 3, 2013, Beyoncé performed the song during the Super Bowl XLVII halftime show.[119] "Halo" was added to the setlist of her The Mrs. Carter Show World Tour.[120] The song was also performed as part of the On The Run Tour with Jay Z and The Formation World Tour in 2016.

Cover versions and usage in media

In 2009, "Halo" was covered by Florence and the Machine on BBC Radio 1's Live Lounge.[121] Elementary school group PS22 chorus covered "Halo" and "Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)" during the 2009 Billboard Women in Music luncheon held at The Pierre in New York City.[122] At the 2009 MTV Europe Music Awards, American singer Katy Perry performed a mash-up of "Halo" and the other Best Song nominees.[123][124] American singer Mike Posner also covered the ballad with different lyrics, and placed it on his 2009 album A Matter of Time.[125][126] According to an MTV writer, Posner's rendition was "a refreshing take on the original".[126] David Sides also made a piano cover of the song and released it on his album The Collection, Vol. 3.[127] "Halo" is featured on the British compilation album Now! 73.[128] The song was blended with "How to Break a Heart" by the Irish boy band Westlife, on their 2010 Where We Are Tour.[129] On February 5, 2012, the team on the Australian talent show, Young Talent Time, sang "Halo" as the closing song of that night.[130] On April 17, 2013, Angie Miller, a contestant on the 12th season of American Idol covered the song during an episode of the show.[131] Melissa Locker of Rolling Stone magazine commented that she was "at her best" and "managed to tap into that power sans piano".[131]

"Halo" has been covered by other musicians, including Ailee, ceo (Eric Berglund) and Harper Blynn.[132][133][134] Marc Hogan of Pitchfork Media has written that no cover has been "quite as inspired or as perversely logical" as the one by ceo.[132] Built essentially on bumpy beats, this version makes use of an acoustic guitar, 1980s-era stylized electric guitar, strings, and horns, and ends with a rapped outro.[132] A dancehall cover of "Halo" by Major Lazer, with lead vocals by Elephant Man, was posted on the former's Twitter account the night after Beyoncé won Best Female Pop Vocal Performance at the 2011 Grammy Awards.[132][135] Simon Vozick-Levinson of Entertainment Weekly commented that their version "stays fairly close to the original, except with Elephant Man growling instead of Beyoncé belting the verses".[136] In 2012, Swedish singer Robin Stjernberg, member of the boy band What's Up!, covered the song and included it on his solo debut album My Versions.[137] A cover by singer-songwriter LP, also in 2012, was described by MTV as "[finding] the perfect balance between making it her own and preserving the integrity of the original melody".[138] In 2013, "Halo" was covered by the Icelandic band Hjaltalín, with their version of "Halo" appearing as the B-side of their single "Crack in a Stone".[139][140] A gospel-style version of the song was recorded by Jahméne Douglas and was released on his album Love Never Fails (2013).[141] Indian singer Sunidhi Chauhan covered "Halo" during a concert at the Royal Albert Hall in London in late September 2013. A writer of The Times of India included the performance of the song as one of the highlights of the concert.[142]

"Halo" was blended with Katrina and the Waves' 1985 song "Walking on Sunshine", in the "Vitamin D" episode of the Fox Broadcasting Company television show Glee.[143] Released as a single, this version peaked at number 4 on the Irish Singles Chart,[144] number 8 on the UK Official Download Chart,[145] number 9 on the UK Singles Chart,[146] number 10 on the ARIA Singles Chart,[147] number 28 on the Canadian Hot 100 chart,[148] and number 40 on the Hot 100 chart.[149] It was certified gold by ARIA, denoting shipment of 35,000 copies.[150] The mash-up was included on the set list of the group's debut concert Glee Live! In Concert! (2010–11).[151] "Halo" was included on the international soundtrack of India – A Love Story, an Emmy-winning Brazilian soap opera.[152]
