A video posted by The Snugglers showed Spacey, who had been accused of assaulting four men, filming as Elton joined in with the 1969 Elvis Presley classic.
The band wrote: “We had the chance to perform for those absolute legends: Sir Elton John and Kevin Spacey.
“In this clip Sir Elton is singing with us. Feeling Blessed.”
The dinner, also attended by Sir Elton’s husband David Furnish, was held at the posh Petite Maison in Nice, France.

Kevin happily posed for photos with fans in the city.
Last month he sobbed as he was acquitted at Southwark crown court.
The claims against him had centred on his time as artistic director of London’s Old Vic theatre.
One accuser said Spacey, 64, had grabbed his crotch at Sir Elton’s annual White Tie and Tiara Ball at his Berkshire mansion in 2004 or 2005.

Sir Elton, 76, and Mr Furnish, 60, gave evidence via videolink saying Spacey was at the lavish event only in 2001.
Sir Elton said he could not recall meeting the claimant, adding: “They could have been the Queen and I wouldn’t notice.”
Mr Furnish said: “I can confirm that Kevin Spacey attended the White Tie and Tiara Ball in 2001.
“I particularly remember he was a surprise guest and he was an Oscar-winning star, but he never attended another ball.”
Spacey is rebuilding his career after losing out on major roles and being dropped from Netflix’s House of Cards.
Sir Elton recently finished his Goodbye Yellow Brick Road world tour.
