How about this?
I heard Carly Simon do it & I wonder how Celtic Woman would do it.
A medley of Hush Little Baby & My Bonnie Lies over the Ocean.
It starts out with her singing Hush Little Baby and then leads into My Bonnie while then there are two separate tracks going of her singing both songs at the same time and since Celtic Woman is a group they could have one member sing Hush Little Baby & the other sing My Bonnie at the same time.

How about this one? traditional lullaby
Cherish the Ladies recorded it on their 2004 christmas album (of all places): Heidi Talbot (who's voice reminds me of Lisa L quite a bit) is the vocalist https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SLsc9EtsYGA -- this is the 2004 recording. Songs from this album played quite a bit for me last christmas on Celtic Woman Holiday Pandora.
Heidi Talbot again a few years later -- she sounds older than she originally did. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rt7cFR4aoJg

Here’s a good one.
You can close your eyes.
It was written by James Taylor in the early 70s.
