According to the UCLA Health website, the private event "started a decade ago to raise awareness and vital funding that has elevated the UCLA Health Autism Program." Howie Mandel served as the auctioneer of the night while Roger Daltrey and Van Morrison also performed.
"Ed & I rehearsing Vincent for the big show! Ed is a quick study... turned out great," McLean shared to Twitter.
McLean's "Vincent" was released in 1972 as a tribute to Vincent Van Gogh. You can check out the 72-year-old and the "Happier" singer performing the track on stage as well thanks to a new fan video.
