  • Thanks, Jairdan. This is music for me to listen even if it is not Christmas. Very peaceful, so beautiful!

  • Wunderschoen! Absolutely Beautiful!

    Das schoenste "Stille Nacht ~ Heilige Nacht" das ich jemals bis jetzt gehoert habe. Und ich hab schon viele gehoert in meinen vielen Jahren des Lebens.

    BRAVO ~ und danke, fuer die Freude!

    Thank you for the JOY ~ and Happy New Year ~ even if it is not quite as "new" anymore ;o)

  • There will be always an asiatic chorus that sing better... ALWAYS.

  • WUNDERBAR!!!!!!!!!

  • Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht... Das ist das schoenste Singen und Video.

    

  • Cisza, ja jestem cisza.

    Powtórz,bom nie dosłyszał.

    Cisza, ja jestem cisza.

    Milcz dumny, zabiorę cię z sobą do trumny.

  • A beautiful version sung by an excellent boys' choir. Bravi to the Thomanerchor! These boys and young men are obviously well trained. This is one of the Christmas hymns that brings a tear to the eye! Please post more!

  • Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht Alles schläft, einsam wacht Nur das traute, hoch heilige Paar Holder Knabe im lockigen Haar Schlaf' in himmlischer Ruh' Schlaf' in himmlischer Ruh' Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht Hirten erst kundgemacht Durch der Engel Halleluja Tönt es laut von fern und nah Und Hitler ist kaput Und Hitler ist kaput Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht Gottes Sohn, o wie lacht Lieb aus deinem göttlichen Mund Da uns schlägt die rettende Stund' Christ in deiner Geburt Christ in deiner Geburt
  • Who Knew boyz could sound so sweet?

  • Complimenti, un bel arrangiamento ed esecuzione.

    Ottima la direzione del coro.

    Bravi.

  • svaka čast, preljepo

    beatiful song and singers :)

  • Wonderful. Thank you.

  • Best version of silent night on the internet.

  • so prettyy<3.

  • Froehliche Weihnachten, Merry Christmas, Buon Natale!

  • P1mp1n1984 - english is a germanic language, closest relative is frisian or old saxon- actually surprisingly little french imput. Besides which the french that did make it across was norman french which bears little relation to modern french.

  • @northernfag What do you mean 'surprisingly little French input'??? Yes, English is Germanic, but over 50% of our language came over with the Normans. And yes, the Normans weren't French, but they spoke it...

  • @moppettshow norman french very quickly came to bear no resemblance to that spoken in france- it remained rather medieval (like the french of the channel islands)- and in fact modern french bears very little resemblance to that spoken by the normans either . Percentage of french in english is more like 30%, and much of that is derived words, the core of English is without doubt germanic.

  • @northernfag On a side note, in one of Churchill's most famous speeches -"We shall fight them on the beaches etc."- the majority of the words are Germanic, and the only French-derived word is 'surrender'... Never fails to amuse me ;-)

  • @moppettshow thanks for that! i may steal it to impress people in the pub if you dont mind! :)

  • Peace in the World

  • beautiful !!!

    no world to describe this

  • Beautiful...! the perfect christmas mood.

  • Brilliant! Just what I was looking for.

  • This version certainly touches the soul--thank you for posting it

  • Beautiful. I don't remember a XMas without that song. Makes me soooooooooo homesick.

  • this is how silent night was meant to be sung. thank you for making Christmas a little more authentic. listening to this i can almost see the nativity scene. :)

  • very very beautiful version!!

  • lazy fact 346946380274976549837307549653­4 you dident read the number

  • Absolutely Beautiful!!

    Merry Christmas

  • Sretan Božić! Frohe Weihnachten! Merry Christmas!

  • Wonderful singing.

  • BRAVO!

    

  • I need to find the version of this song as sang in George C Scotts (Patton), who did it , and where can i find it. Its probably the best version i have heard. Any help with this would be appreciated.

  • I truly do wonder if @bristolcityification is a troll or is genuinely as stupid as his grammatically incorrect name would infer. If he truly believes this, perhaps a peek into a newspaper or history book that isn't the official BNP leaflet would assist him in realizing the hypocrisy in his comments. Either way, it really is sad to see such a beautiful song ruined by such talk, but in my experience anything to do with Germany always descends into a forum on WWII. Christ der Retter is da indeed.

  • @bristolcityifcation Actually, the NATO forces are fighting in Afghanistan. NATO are Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France, Iceland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, USA, Greece, Turkey, Germany, Spain, Czech Rep, Hungary, Poland and many more. These countries together are fighting for your shitty existence. Moreover, the pound is just as screwed up as the Euro but it only spreads across four nations compared to the 30+ the Euro covers. I'm disgusted to know that you are my fellow country man

  • @bristolcityifcation England is part of Europe. Deal with it. And seeing as how the French and English language have greatly influenced eachother, you are kinda speaking french. Plus, without the French, your government would not be the same.

  • @P1mp1n1984

    Keep dreaming, "pimp".

  • proud American but i live in Wuerzburg germany for 6 yrs BEST COUNTRY in EUROPE oh and BEST FOOD ( ICH LIEBE DUETSCHLAND)

  • i only know the first verse in german

  • Simply beautiful, thank you for sharing this

  • andrews here yea and they played football my grandfather was there he told us about this and the only time fa cup was played outside uk in salonika he was ref

  • Beautiful. Love and pece to everyone.

  • i think of a horror movie when i watch this

  • @bristolcityifcation Both my grandfather and his dad fought for england in ww2 and they would truly be ashamed for having you as a countryman, You ignorant shit, you havnt learned anything? "best country in the world"? sounds almost lika Mr.Hitler.

    God bless Germany from Stockholm

  • @Azuult Putain d'anglais et d'américain de merde , même sur une chanson de noël , vous trouez le moyen de faire chier le monde avec la 2éme guerre mondial pour humilier les allemands . Vous savez quoi ? C'est vous que l'ont devrer éxterminer ! La guerre est finis , alors foutez la paix aux allemands qui sont a mes yeux plus humain que vous .

  • @88jeannot - Not all English people (or Americans for that matter) have the same close-minded views, so you really shouldn't judge us as a stereotype. I must say, your comment "C'est vous que l'ont devrer éxterminer!" brought a chill to my bones - shame on you!

    I find it very sad that such a beautiful song (which is ultimately about peace and love) is prompting such terrible, hateful comments from all sides.

    I, personally, send out good wishes to ALL - no matter what your nationality!

  • @Azuult Mygreat/ grandparents foought in ww/1/ ww2. Just clicked on here because i love this carrol in GERMAN! I'm/we're Welsh. I myself have serve'd in a welsh regiment in the British army. Hope you do'nt think all British people are twat's. I have a lot of respect for german's. You can't keep blaming them for the past. Had some good times in Dortmund! Nadolig hapus!

  • @m1a9r7k0 i fucking hate germans !! my grandad was there when the boys liberated belsen !! ask a polish person what he thinks of the germans !! i say authwitz and made my own mind up ! please go and see it then tell me what u think ? it was in them !! they said after the war they knew nothing ? make your own mind up !! you french were the worst collaberaters of the lot u garlic eating surrender monkeys !! one country with respect the country that is GREAT BRITAIN !! FUCK U ALL !!

  • @Azuult what the fuck did you swedes do but sell iron ore to the the nazis so they could make weapons so what the fuck is your angle then huh ? my grandad fought against the cunts you supplied !! and probably a few of his comrades were killed by what your country supplied !! so dont call me a fucking nazi u cunts got so much more in common than my country that stood against them !! what the fuck did your lot do ? thimk on fool lots of ss volunteeers from sweden !! hahaha u wanker !!

  • Thats what I like Peace and Harmony Germans,Jews,Arabs,etc.Just what Jesus wanted.

  • Beautiful song and rendition. Thank you. Search YouTube for London Boy Singers and Und Alabald War da for an 'undiscovered' German Christmas treasure.

  • Having sung German before, I have found the sound of the language to be coarse and cutting. This song shows that it can be beautiful and uplifting. Peace on Earth.

  • stille nacht, heilige nacht, alles schlaft, einsam wacht, nur das traute hoch heilige paar, holder kna be im kokki gen haar,schlaf in himm li scher ruh,schlaf in himm li shcer ruh!!! here is the lyrics in german for you people i hope you like it, no i am NOT german i just know the song.

  • Be you a Christian or not, Christmas is a celebration of love & forgiveness; this ethereal performance will hopefully allow you to feel these positive emotions. I would not dwell on Adolf Hitler. He was a charismatic psychopath who came to power at a time when economic conditions were ripe for his particular brand of evil. Let us hope that Humanity never sees the like of him again, but I fear we will; we are slow to learn from history, thus doomed to repeat it. Happy Christmas & live in peace.

  • Seriously? Anyone who brings up what the Germans did in WWII in the comments for THIS song needs to get help. As mentioned in andrewshere's comment, THIS song literally stopped the trench warfare of WWI for a day.

  • I learned to sing this song in German in 1972 when we moved there when my Dad was in the Army. Love the German Version. I too find myself singing this in German everytime I hear it.

  • So I clicked on this video, without looking at the description... then I read it.. all boys choir. HOLY CRAP. THE BASS AND SOPRANO LINES ARE SANG SO WONDERFULLY.

  • I choose this video to my friends because: kids are singing with their hearts not a STUPID DIVA!.,, Is about GOD not the " divas".

  • IF YOU EVEN MENTION THE WORD "NAZI" ON THIS VIDEO YOUR A FUCKING CUNT. THIS IS A GERMAN BOY'S CHOIR NOT SOME DAMN SS REGIME. STOP BEING SUCH IGNORANT BASTARDS AND LEAVE THE NAZIS OUT OF IT!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • So beautiful it makes me want to cry!

  • Hallo, mein Freund! sehr gute Video-su Parabene, schöne Musik Sterne *********** fantastisch. Big hug und die BRASILIEN mit Gott. Att ... Jugend.

  • These kids got maaaad chops, yo. Beautiful music.

  • Definitely prefer this over the crap that pop music artists try spewing out of their mouths every Christmas.

  • can't we just listen to music,as im tired of the bull shit that goes on in this world

  • I came here to listen to the Leipzig Choir. I'm astonished that people here are even mentioning wars. Leave us alone. We are creating something worthwhile from our ashes.

  • @tochterdesReichs Frohe Wehnachten und Glückliches neues Jahr aus England nach Deutschland von einem Engländer!

  • This recording is superb. Thanks for posting.

    

  • I love this song! Also, this is a very good choir!

  • Beautiful

  • Comment removed

  • Our children-our future-our Europe! Peace all over the world

  • Music: Franz Xaver Gruber, 1818 Words: Joseph Mohr, 1816/1818 Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht, Alles schläft; einsam wacht Nur das traute hochheilige Paar. Holder Knabe im lockigen Haar, Schlaf in himmlischer Ruh! Schlaf in himmlischer Ruh! Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht, Hirten erst kundgemacht Durch der Engel Halleluja, Tönt es laut von fern und nah: Christ, der Retter ist da! Christ, der Retter ist da!
  • Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht,

    Gottes Sohn, o wie lacht

    Lieb' aus deinem göttlichen Mund,

    Da uns schlägt die rettende Stund'.

    Christ, in deiner Geburt!

    Christ, in deiner Geburt!

  • Who give a rat's ass where the singers come from; the music is beautiful. No matter how great you think your country is, there is always someone who can/will do it better, just sit back and enjoy the show ;p

  • Pięknie, uwielbiam tego słuchać w święta <3

  • proof that the western musical tradition far outstrips that of any part of the world. not to say their isn't any other beautiful music, but this....is amazing. Not only the melody, but the musical organization, and the time-fine-tuned techniques passed on for centuries, cannot compare to anything out there. yay for self-love!

  • Germans > Russians

  • @voluMzor Wtf does Russia have to do with anything? Russia is beast.

  • FUCK YOU ALL...JUST SHUT UP, LET ME ENJOY THE SOUNDS OF MUSIC.

  • panget nyo kumanta .. MAS magaling ang mga pinoy !!!

    

  • It is beautyful.

  • Christmas- Does it not conjure up memories? This song brings tears to my eyes for reasons I know not.

  • @CryWolf1986 The Germans called it Nationalism you Americans call it Patriotism. In the end it´s the same.

  • fuck, last year i was in my car on my way home the 25th of december, it was the only car on the freeway, suddenly this song started to play... it was a creepy but confortably moment

  • beautiful! well done, i love the song brings back memories!

  • I would like to read comments left for Christmas videos just once without seeing the "F" word. I speak not of moral indignation, but of a sense of time and place appropriateness for such language. We are listening to Stille Nacht after all.

  • Germans certainly have a right to sing this song because it was written in the native German language in Austria in the early 1800s. That is why it sounds so much prettier in German than English. In fact Christmas as the Western world now celebrates it started in Germany. Saint Nicholas ( Santa Claus) anyone?

  • beautiful :')

  • The most beautiful version I've ever heard.

  • Who's the composer of this arrangement? Where can I find the sheet?

  • @days2NiGHTS2days even on top of that you can't blame all those that supported the Nazi's, the Nazi party didn't openly stand for the horrendous crimes that were committed under it's leadership, their ideals and proposed goals were idyllic to most people. It was only the minority that committed such atrocious acts.

  • отлично!

  • MICHAEL JACKSON!!

  • @lolman6305 Why? lol

  • @lolman6305 Oh because boyschoir?

  • 40 people just worried about chanel video quality.....

  • ...does there have to be an argument about WWII over every video that is remotely about germany?

  • Jesus is Great!

  • @LaskaFabricator Amen!

  • the very best christmas song...

  • oh my god ! the song is very good

  • Is it possible that some simpleminded idiots make you argue about ww2 that was 60 years ago, time when 99% of you wasn't even born?!

    And in this carrol?

    Silent night? WW2?

    What the fuck does one have to do with the other?

    Yes in ww2 fronts germans sang silent nigh on christmas. Yes in ww2 americans sang silent nigh on christmas.

    That is the only connection.

    Now, shut the fuck up about things u have no idea, and listen this song.

    Thank you.

  • great choir for a very good Christmas song

  • lovely!

  • what a powerful blending of heavenly voices....although I can not understand the wordings in german, I for sure know it is silent night

  • Only the Germans can sing this song so wonderfully, every time i hear it i sing along in german.

    All you ignorant people that were not even born when the war was on really need to shut up and get a life, all Allied forces committed war crimes but only Gemany was made to pay, what about the horrors, rapes and murders the german civilians had to go through commited by the Russian hordes, were they put on trial >>NO.

    If i had had a choice to be born german then i would feel honoured

  • @stormseal hear hear well said mate.nothing worng with the germans i like them and have a few german friends.

  • @stormseal I agree with the war part of this comment, but you are a very ignorant person. Anyone, any country, any race can sing this song beautifully in what ever language. This is a very beautiful peace made for any type of choir. And if you were born German, hell you should be honored. You should be honored if you were born in the United Kingdom, the United States, and any country where their government was made by and for the citizens of the country. You are a very close minded person.

  • @stormseal sry, but i have to correct you...not germans sing this song...austrians do...

    someone from britian would also wonder if someone says that the american sing "god save the queen" so wonderfully ;)

  • @stormseal

    In all fairness....both the Germans (not the people really, the nazi regime and it's supporters) and the Russians were both terribly misguided civilizations at that time. The U.S. had to put up with the craziness of the Soviets for 40 years after WW2.

    That said...WW2 was 70 some odd years ago. Germany is far gone from Nazism....people need to start disassociating Germany with Nazi......70 years ago people. Enjoy the damn music!

  • @stormseal wow.. thanks dude that you like us germans so much.. that comment really makes me feel proud on my country..

  • @ElBartoNR1 Please let me also apologise for the idiots who make anti German comments. I have visited Germany on many occasions, and have found the German people to be without exception very well educated, friendly and courteous.

    Modern Germany is a shining example to the rest of Europe!

    Frohe Weihnachten und Glückliches neues Jahr nach Deutschland aus England von einem Engländer!

  • @bristolcityifcation You say "good v evil and good won".

    And you're an example of "good" are you?

  • @TheStackalee Well, when germany fought yougoslavia and poland and france... the good won too... the germans... so lets not call humans good nor evil but only stupid and wars what they are, slaughter, and when stupid slaughter stupid only stupid comes out victoriuous in all its stupid glory. Stupid then claims the right to impose stupidity on the concoured stupid and thus makes the bed for an other slughter of stupids.

  • @TrashIt86 If you scroll down I was responding to the comment made by bristolcityifcation. If you read his posts you will understand. I agree with your comments.

  • @bristolcityifcation Mon cher petit con , les allemands n'ont rien faits au européen , se sont les nazis qui ont fait du mal : LES NAZIS !!!!!!!!!! Les allemands ne méritent pas d'être haïes puisque eux n'ont rien fait . Franchement sa me dégoutte que des gens comme sa pense encore des trucs comme sa au 20éme siécle . Es lebe Deutschland et vive l'Europe .

  • @88jeannot

    clearly he's in the minority as (despite our economic disagreements), Britain, Germany and France are very good allies now

  • @88jeannot think europe !1 who stood against the nazis alone when u french cunts collaborated !! think on know your history what you gotta say about THE MILLICE !! or is that brushed under the carpet !! you fucking wankers hate us because you would still be with the nazis if it wasnt for us you garlic eating surrender monkey !!

  • @bristolcityifcation Jamais je n'ai approuvé le régime nazi , et merci je connais mieux mon histoire que toi et c'est pas un petit merdeux d'américain qui va me l'apprendre OK . Je suis alsacien Lorrain , et ma famille a extrêmement sou-faire du nazisme alors ta réflexion tu te la fou bien profond dans ton cul . Salutation distingué . Vive l'Europe .

  • @bristolcityifcation My father fought in the 2nd world war, he was on the north Atlantic convoys, and I am extremely proud of what he and his generation did, but I think he and your grand father would be wondering what they fought for, seeing what is happening today in our once great country.

    Germans today cannot be blamed for what happened in the nineteen thirties and forties, and who can say what we would have done given the same circumstances.

    A merry Christmas to you.

  • @bristolcityifcation with comments like that you make me ashamed to be English,have you ever been in the army and been ordered to fire on people no i didn't think so,using swear words just illustrates how childish and immature you really are.so you hate a nation because of what happened in the past...what about the inquisition when innocent people where tortured and killed in the name of god in England what about the slave trade in England so do you hate England no you need to grow up.

  • oh lordy some girls cant even get that high! theyre really good!

  • Licht ins Dunkel

  • Très bien !

  • a ganz schon carol in a beautiful language from a Scotsman, Far far more emotive than in English

  • a beautiflul carol for a beautiful language from an englishman, merry christmas.

  • @MultiMegadriver

    totaly agree with you there , from a Scotsman

  • If that doesn't bring tears to your eyes, then you really do have a heart of stone. Beautiful songs, from angelic voices and faces.

  • Isn't this an almost perfect rendition? Very beautiful!

  • If mankind dies, atleast we will have 1 thing left in memory of it.

  • Close your eyes to witness the full experience of this song.

  • not bad at all

  • pause at 1:01

  • The most beautiful rendition I have heard so far.

  • Beautiful, reminds me of my German Upbringing - we should all be proud that our mothers or fathers wern't affected by the nazis !!!! and we should be proud to be of German Descent

  • @TheGreatImpulse amen brotha.

  • superb , says the man of kent englishman.

  • amazing:)
