Steven Tyler Performs With Street Musician in Moscow, Sings “I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing”—Watch!


Rock on, Steven Tyler!

The Aerosmith frontman surprised fans in Moscow, Russia on Friday when he suddenly began performing with a street musician. Accompanied by the busker on an acoustic guitar, the two sang the band’s 1998 power ballad, “I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing.”

After they were done, Tyler, 67, gave the guy a high five and posed for pics with him as a small crowd that had gathered cheered.

“Spasiba [thank you]!” a woman exclaimed.

The song was featured on the soundtrack to the movie Armageddon, which stars the rocker’s daughter Liv Tyler, 38, and hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 Singles Chart, where it remained for about five months.

This is not the first time Steven has surprised street musicians with a duet performance. In 2014, he joined two female buskers in Lithuania who played Aerosmith’s 1993 hit “Crazy” on a violin and accordion.

Aerosmith gave a free concert at Lubyanskaya Square on Saturday to celebrate Moscow City Day. The band performed “I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing” as well as hits such as “Love in an Elevator,” Dream On,” “Dude (Looks Like a Lady),” “Cryin'” and “Walk This Way.”

Several photos from the band’s gig and trip were posted on the group’s social media pages.

The “Kacca Room” is actually a ticket office at a train station.
