20+ years later, now I consider this as much of a Christmas classic as Perry Como or Bing Crosby. Many try to copy this but few are even close Lisa owns this one. Mariah who?
I guess thats not fair because they are 2 totally different songs.
This is the real video of " All I Want For Christmas Is You " & this Is The Only Original Singer That Can Really Belt It Out Like It's Suppose To Sound You Go Lisa !
My #1 Christmas song! What a voice Lisa Layne has! She is currently in Branson doing a Patsy Cline show. I would pay the price of a show just to hear this song. Wow!!!
@7Arcangeloo This is my favorite Christmas song ever! I don't understand why she isn't a superstar. Thanks for the nice comments. Happy holidays to you and yours.
I heard this song for the first time on our local radio station that is playing Christmas Music. I had to Google it and find it to hear it again and again. I just love it. Completely surprised it wasn't an oldie from the 50's because it has that feel to it, especially the way she sings it. So what old Bobby Vinton song is the melody from?
This song and the one by Mariah Carey are two totally different songs that happen to have the same name. I don't understand why everyone is making such a fuss. They are not even the same song!
I stand corrected. The Vince Vance version is not the original. They"ve been playing it on local radio stations in New Orleans so long , I thought it had been around since the 80's. Not only is Mariah Carey's version the original , she co-wrote the song. I didn't want to believe it because this version is so much better, and I've never been much of a Mariah fan. But I have to give credit where credit is due.
@LJH70122 they are two different songs, completely different lyrics... this one was released first, but they are not different versions, they are different songs.... anyway, Merry Christmas & Happy New Years to you and yours!
The Vince Vance version is the original. This has been a local Christmas hit in New Orleans for many years. I heard this song long before I heard of Mariah Carey. It was the CMT video that was made in 1993. The song is older than that.
actually hulanoe21...Vince Vance and the Valiants "all i want for Christmas is you" came out in 1993..Mariah Carey's came out in 1994. The Vince Vance and the Valiants song is my mother's favorite Christmas song, so i remember. But i agree, they are both great songs, and Lisa Layne has a beautiful voice.
Great song and I love her voice. To correct karenbrennaberino though, Mariah did not steal the title. Her song was released in 1994 and this song was released 10 years later and actually is the melody to an old Bobby Vinton song. Aside from that, they are 2 completely different songs and are equally great.
Lisa -- you are a STAR!!! This is my favorite Christmas song of all time. Mariah should be ashamed to have stolen the title. This song and your voice is so pure -- it makes Christmas sexy and classy at the same time! Thanks so much...
All I wanna know is, Why ain't this lady singing country music. I have loved this song for years. It is my favorite Christmas song of all time. She can flat out sing. Amazing talent. Got the CD a few years ago just for this song!
Sounds as good as the record. Excellent band, but why in the world would the cameraman zoom in on the hawaiian guitarist, when the lead guitarist was playing his bit. Makes no sense. Could he have been a realtive?
Love her saultry voice and this song. How can people even think this is a Mariah Carey song! Although I do like that song to, but this is my favorite!
Lisa is THE best singer I ever heard. She is in a class with Elvis! One of a kind. Top of the line! The only girl singer close was Patsy Cline. In my humble opinion they are equal talent wise. This recording is the best Christmas song ever recorded, what great talent! The bass player sounds exactly like me, and I can't help but cry like a baby when I hear it. This is REAL music!
I just saw her in "always patsy cline" in branson. What a voice! What a smile! what a stage presence! One of the best shows I ever experienced while at branson. Great talent.
@born2early. Let me first thank you for your service in Vietnam. Glad you made it home safely. I too am 63 years old (a few days ago) and lost two classmates and a stepbrother in that war. So it means a lot to hear from someone who is safe at home.
Secondly Lisa has a beautiful voice. I will definitely be buying this CD.
I can't find this song ANYWHERE ELSE, on either Spotify, YouTube, or various other music websites! And I LOVE IT!! :( Does anybody know what CD this is on? I might just try and buy it!
I don't like Christmas, or its music, but I love this song (bought at Amazon in July!). I doubt anyone could sing it like Lisa does. She's got the prettiest voice I've ever heard.
Hey Lisa. Glad I found this on here. Janos and I miss you bunches. We think of you often and would love to see you. Always our sister.... we love you.
I am just letting all of you people know that Mariah Carey's "All I Want for Christmas is You" is a com,pletly different song than this version except with the same name. For example the lyrics of THIS song's beginning goes: "Take back the holly and mistletoe. Silver bells don't ring." whereas Mariah Carey's song goes: "I don't want a lot for christmas. There is just one thing I need." Okay, So I got the point across. Two COMPLETLY differnt songs.
@gym18linz Hahah, I tried to do that too..and was told by tav that I needed my hearing checked etc...so be prepared. And yeah, they sure are 2 different songs! This one knocks the other one out of the water,
I don't care if you like Maria's song or Vince's song better. Save yourself the embarrassment of thinking that they are the same song. Take 10 minutes and look it up.
Lisa, I love the part that says "I don't need inexpensive things" and "all I want for christmas is ski doooo" haha ! Excellent song ,I think it's may favorite even though i'm not into the xmas thing much anymore . Kids are older ,just not the same ! Beutifull voice !!!!!!!!!!!!
This song should be played on the radio year round-one of the best female performances on any record-period. Lisa is an outstanding vocalist, and this live performance of this song attests to this fact. Right up there with Aretha and Celine.
You can search YouTube for Violet Valiantette and clearly see "Violet" is the one in the music video. But yes, it's Lisa Layne's voice. Just not Lisa in the famous music video.

No, there seems to be some confusion here. The girl in the music video was NOT Lisa Layne. She sang the song but the girl in the video was actually a member of the Valliants named Violet. I will show you what Violet looks like today.
Lisa , Thank you for sharing this wonderful song with us. Merry Christmas to you and Yours! are you going to be performing in Wisconsin anytime soon? I would love to see you and hear you sing! Mike
Incredible voice. There is something very nostagic about hearing her sing. I wait until December 1st each year to listen to this song by Lisa...only Lisa. Thank you Lisa.
@tav168 WOW MAN, I'm embarrassed for ya. How bad do guys like you need to be arrogant know-it-alls, that they'd make fools of themselves like U just did? Pattycakes was 100% right. Have hHER hearing checked?! U need to have ALL your senses checked. And READ & RESEARCH a little too. Try pulling the 2 DIFFERENT song lyrics up. TOTALLY DIFFERENT! ALSO Lisa Layne & Vince Vance & the Valiants 1st sang theirs DECADES ago. Carey didnt even write hers til 1994. Diff words, diff melody. Apologize man.
@tav168 Haha, I was going to reply to your curt and very incorrect comment to me, but I see that your butt has already been kicked, and quite royally, I might add. Thanks NYNY! Now here is MY suggestion to YOU: When deciding to act like a total boor, at least make sure you know what the hell you're talking about. Have a nice day.
@Pattycakes amazing how many tone-deaf, total idiots can't tell the diff between this song & the one penned by Mariah @ 25 yrs later. Except for the words...all I want for Christmas is you, the lyrics are nothing alike. Needless to say, neither are the melodies. Lisa & Vince did it better than any of the late comers~ NO, not Maraih's song). And while I agree with NYNY, you do deserve an apoloygy~ blowhards like tav168 will always just slink off w/tails between their legs, they dont apologize.
@Pattycakessmiles Don't worry. . . I spent all of yesterday correcting tav168 for calling me a fool because I told someone that Mariah Carey originaly wrote the song "All I Want for Christmas is You" that Miley Cyrus did a cover for.
The only one that comes closer to this is LeAnn Rimes and that's only because she learned it from Lisa Layne ! She said that was her favorite song as a teenager, well back in 1993 she was !
YOU ARE THE BEST! What a wonderful voice! I first heard this song at work several years ago and I had no idea who sang it, who performed it....even the name of the song! Obviously I finally found you. Every since then I look just a little more forward to Christmas so I can play this song as often as I like...(I do play it other times of the year but just a little more quiet...LOL!)
Lisa Layne..you will own this song forever ! No one will ever do it as well and should not even embarrass themselves by trying to out do your version. S. Britton, Rushville, Il
@grosegill of course you are entitled to your own opinion and I love LeAnn Rimes, but she doesn't even come close on this one, when you hear the passion in Lisa Laynes voice on the original and I would bet that LeAnn would agree with me
@grosegill I love LeAnn, but NOBODY sings this song better than Lisa. You're comparing a small stage production of a 40+ Lisa to who knows what for an early twenties LeAnn. No! There's a reason this is the #7 Christmas song of all time, and it's because of the original by Lisa Layne and Vince Vance and the Valiants. This gal can sing. Go to Lisa Layne RESPECT to see her out Aretha Aretha. And now she does the Patsy Cline thing. Super talent and nobody knows who she is. SAD!
@fastoly Wrong - we DO know who she is. And as far as the thing about age (40+ vs. 20's) Lisa has never sounded better than she does today. If anything, she is actually getting better with age. I have loved her since 1st hearing the original recording. Has it really been that long ago? Time does fly. I will always love you, Lisa.
@HalfFastChevy Yeah, WE know who she is, but unfortunately, not enough do. She sounds great at 40+ and probably always will. The comparison wasn't so much about age, but rather the stage setting and background music.. Hers was very simple but the voice sure works. Still, it's sad to say she has the best voice that nobodys ever heard of. Proof? Look at the "Respect" video. SUPER! But only 4173 views. Are you kidding me. She outdoes Aretha!! Oh! Can a half Fast Chevy beat a fast oly?
@fastoly I'm not quite sure what a fastoly is, but you do recognize and appreciate a great voice and talent when you hear it. And yes, you're ablolutely right about "Respect" - and Lisa definitely don't get enough of it. I've been listening to her for years. Check out "Dreamer" - great song. And of course my all time favorite L.L. song, "One Man's Opinion". 1st time I heard that one was right here on youtube, and it's probably her best song ever - but that's just this one man's opinion.
@HalfFastChevy Love those too, and cool pun! Fast oly is an '88 Olds cutlass Superstocker (307 Olds - many time record holder). So what's a half fast Chevy?
I'm angry. Lisa, you are amazing to me. I have been singing this song for years. (not as awesome as you-BUT ! ) I honestly never thought about who the actual singer was...till now. Your voice is just as clear & fresh & cool as the first time I ever heard your song back in 93. Oh yeah. Why am I so angry ? Because I think the public needs to see more of you !
Keep making music ok ?! You have such a wonderful gift. ! =)
You're the BEST Lisa! Glad to see a full length video of the original singer of my favorite Christmas song here on YouTube, Merry Christmas to you & your's.
Thank you so much, Miss Layne. What a jewel to hear at Christmas time.

@tav168 Haha, I was going to reply to your curt and very incorrect comment to me, but I see that your butt has already been kicked, and quite royally, I might add. Thanks NYNY! Now here is MY suggestion to YOU: When deciding to act like a total boor, at least make sure you know what the hell you're talking about. Have a nice day.

@Pattycakes amazing how many tone-deaf, total idiots can't tell the diff between this song & the one penned by Mariah @ 25 yrs later. Except for the words...all I want for Christmas is you, the lyrics are nothing alike. Needless to say, neither are the melodies. Lisa & Vince did it better than any of the late comers~ NO, not Maraih's song). And while I agree with NYNY, you do deserve an apoloygy~ blowhards like tav168 will always just slink off w/tails between their legs, they dont apologize.

@Pattycakessmiles Don't worry. . . I spent all of yesterday correcting tav168 for calling me a fool because I told someone that Mariah Carey originaly wrote the song "All I Want for Christmas is You" that Miley Cyrus did a cover for.

The only one that comes closer to this is LeAnn Rimes and that's only because she learned it from Lisa Layne ! She said that was her favorite song as a teenager, well back in 1993 she was !

Lisa, It's no wonder you made this song #1
It can be re-made over and over again but NO ONE will equal your talent and timeless voice.
All i want for Christmas by Lisa Lane is by far the the only version that counts.

YOU ARE THE BEST! What a wonderful voice! I first heard this song at work several years ago and I had no idea who sang it, who performed it....even the name of the song! Obviously I finally found you. Every since then I look just a little more forward to Christmas so I can play this song as often as I like...(I do play it other times of the year but just a little more quiet...LOL!)
CD's?

@tcstevie LeAnn Rimes can sing this better I think.
grosegill 1 year ago
@grosegill of course you are entitled to your own opinion and I love LeAnn Rimes, but she doesn't even come close on this one, when you hear the passion in Lisa Laynes voice on the original and I would bet that LeAnn would agree with me
tcstevie 1 year ago
@grosegill I love LeAnn, but NOBODY sings this song better than Lisa. You're comparing a small stage production of a 40+ Lisa to who knows what for an early twenties LeAnn. No! There's a reason this is the #7 Christmas song of all time, and it's because of the original by Lisa Layne and Vince Vance and the Valiants. This gal can sing. Go to Lisa Layne RESPECT to see her out Aretha Aretha. And now she does the Patsy Cline thing. Super talent and nobody knows who she is. SAD!
fastoly 1 year ago
@fastoly Wrong - we DO know who she is. And as far as the thing about age (40+ vs. 20's) Lisa has never sounded better than she does today. If anything, she is actually getting better with age. I have loved her since 1st hearing the original recording. Has it really been that long ago? Time does fly. I will always love you, Lisa.
HalfFastChevy 1 year ago
@HalfFastChevy Yeah, WE know who she is, but unfortunately, not enough do. She sounds great at 40+ and probably always will. The comparison wasn't so much about age, but rather the stage setting and background music.. Hers was very simple but the voice sure works. Still, it's sad to say she has the best voice that nobodys ever heard of. Proof? Look at the "Respect" video. SUPER! But only 4173 views. Are you kidding me. She outdoes Aretha!! Oh! Can a half Fast Chevy beat a fast oly?
fastoly 1 year ago
@fastoly I'm not quite sure what a fastoly is, but you do recognize and appreciate a great voice and talent when you hear it. And yes, you're ablolutely right about "Respect" - and Lisa definitely don't get enough of it. I've been listening to her for years. Check out "Dreamer" - great song. And of course my all time favorite L.L. song, "One Man's Opinion". 1st time I heard that one was right here on youtube, and it's probably her best song ever - but that's just this one man's opinion.
HalfFastChevy 1 year ago
@HalfFastChevy Love those too, and cool pun! Fast oly is an '88 Olds cutlass Superstocker (307 Olds - many time record holder). So what's a half fast Chevy?

I'm angry. Lisa, you are amazing to me. I have been singing this song for years. (not as awesome as you-BUT ! ) I honestly never thought about who the actual singer was...till now. Your voice is just as clear & fresh & cool as the first time I ever heard your song back in 93. Oh yeah. Why am I so angry ? Because I think the public needs to see more of you !
Keep making music ok ?! You have such a wonderful gift. ! =)
