David Archuleta Pat- A- Pan Lyrics

[bigbluewhale99]

@nicolerocksable

Umm... its french. And its a traditional french christmas song.

[ULtraTejbz]

Wow why can't I be that good! 8D

[rachelhayful]

love this song

[amy9791]

haha,wow i love your voice AND the song

[nicolerocksable]

ii liKe ThE a sonG but i dont get why did he did it in latin like if you agree

[DeadByDds]

at like 1:35 i can do that long part but my voice would probably crack trying so i aint doing in public.

[michellej25667]

@edwardandbellaroks: what he says in French is exactly what he says in English

[jwharcup76]

They lyrics in the opening intro are written/sang in Gaelic I believe - not French. It's a beautiful classic song that David performs an amazing rendition of.

[jwharcup76]

@jwharcup76 On second thought - scratch what I just said. Lol I just looked it up. The lyrics are in French, but it's old late 17th century French when the song was first written by Bernard de La Monnoye. :)

[ArchuletaFanj11]

@jwharcup76 (: 

[Hetaliafan01]

OMG! I didn't know he did a version of Pat A Pan......its like my favorite Christmas song ever!

[mikeyman6129]

Why did you spell everything so weird at the beginning I am pretty sure thats not how they spell it in French

[ArchuletaFanj11]

@mikeyman6129 I believe thats how you spell everything, but I'm not 100% sure... I just looked up the lyrics... So yeahh.

[555Jessica12]

@ArchuletaFanj11 Of course you don't own it! David Archuleta does!

[ArchuletaFanj11]

@555Jessica12 the record label "owns" the song... but yeah, i know i don't own it. i did that so i wouldn't get copyrighted.

[ArchuletaFanj11]

@555Jessica12 & no david didn't write this song... he re-did it. it's a classic(:

[DeadByDds]

@ArchuletaFanj11 he made it a lil better id say its just some different lyrics his seems kind of medieval to me idk

[MajorDorkzInTown]

iknow rightttt

[love2dance4life1]

[BrightestStarlight]

From 0:00 to 4:00 i'm all like O_O! Then i murder the repeat button. :)

[edwardandbellaroks]

does anyone know what he's saying in the beginning? i know it's French but what doesi it mean?

[SnowWhiteQueen29]

@MhickzDelRosario Chill. Never said he sang bad. He sings really well, I just do not like how he sang this song. It's simply my opinion.

[percabethluver1]

He's an amazinggggg singer. [:

[Twihard456]

[madman987654]

I just think this goes a little too fast... it sounds like he's struggling to keep up with the tempo...

[emmybelle10]

Great song =]

We are singing this in choir, but a different version. Has anyone else noticed how many versions there are? Dang.

[WendySunVal]

[LittleMak1]

[lolgenios]

[ArchuletaFanj11]

@chattergirl12 Yes(:

[kriston900]

And I LOVE when he says instruments ;)

[kriston900]

I LOVE THIS SONG can't wait too see him singing it live on youtube ;)

[imcontagious123]

actually... it's not HIS song... Patapan is like a traditional French Christmas carol. I do admit that he did a very recording of it though.

[ArchuletaFanj11]

Yeah I know, but he re-did the song on his New Christmas Album :]

[christydoll37]

good lyrics but they come a little after he actually sings the song so you never know what the first word but other wise good video! :)

[ArchuletaFanj11]

lol I know, my lyrics kind of got messed up when I was making the video, but thank you :]

[archuletafan111]

Love this song! My fave on his cd!

[reeann28archuleta16]

me too! i love this song..:)

[yunhangkit]

[yunhangkit]

[yunhangkit]

I have to dance to this and sing at the same time

[techgeek4567]

[DesignerGoat]

Its so fun to try to sing this song but David Archuleta mastered it!
