The Stoke-on-Trent ace, aged 39, swapped out his darts for singing on stage at Darts Boston.
The vibrant evening celebrated legends of the sport, including Phil Taylor and Raymond van Barneveld, allowing some fans the chance to challenge these top competitors.
Nevertheless, Lewis astonished everyone by picking up the microphone instead of his darts.
The audience reacted with a blend of respectful silence and enthusiastic applause as he performed the karaoke hit Angels.
Perhaps he could have selected another of Williams’ chart-toppers, modifying it to “She’s the one.. hundred and eighty”!
Known as Jackpot, Lewis has navigated challenging times lately.
He secured the Ally Pally title in 2011 and 2021, yet his performance has seen ups and downs.
The four-time major champion has also been taking care of his ailing wife, Sarah.

After announcing a hiatus from darts, he decided to forgo this year’s world championship qualifiers.
This decision is a significant factor in why Lewis will lose his PDC Tour card for 2025.
Laura Turner reflects on her journey in professional darts
Despite this, he expressed: “It was never my intention to walk away from darts forever.
“I mentioned I was taking a break; I never stated I was retiring, and returning was always a possibility.
“I lacked the drive, which is essential for success.
“My wife suffers from an incurable kidney disease, so we’ve spent substantial time in hospitals.
“Additionally, my daughter has autism; the demands were becoming overwhelming. While these challenges remain, we are learning to manage them.”
Thus, it was especially uplifting to see Lewis at ease, delivering a calming version of Angels.
He lifted everyone’s spirits even more at the finale by energetically shouting, “COME ON!”
