Beyoncé Tributes Prince With a Stunning Cover of "The Beautiful Ones" in Concert

While Michael Jackson is often credited at Beyoncé's biggest influence. It's no surprise that the global superstar feels a particular affinity for Prince. The two performed together at The Grammy Awards in 2004, and Beyoncé has long included music from the The Time, a group Prince assembled and wrote for, in her live shows (See: The Beyoncé Experience).

In Dallas on Monday, Beyoncé covered "The Beautiful Ones" during the Formation World Tour. The song appears on Purple Rain.  She first performed the cover in 2011 at the Glastonbury Festival in England, and this longer version was equally spectacular.
