Handel - Messiah

[lewisgunner1]

this is what you hear in the church

[FiresideRechauffe]

Takes your breath away- really. C'est magnifique!

[womanKina]

Beautiful!!

[holla06]

This is freakin awesome!!!

[Sitn0ntehprkbinch]

Atheist here, and this is still a beautiful piece of music. It's really sad that music like this is filled with arguments because this may have something religious in it.

[VegaEtereo]

classics are forever! thanks for sharing :D

[chukas88]

This song came out randomly in my playlist, right after I got the correct answer on a question I had been working for 30 mins. on aris. Had no other choice but to laugh.

hallelujah

[SandrineSoprano]

Thank you for uploading.

[jherna9804]

Inspiring!!! 

[flippinburger777]

Pump the volume and crank the bass. right at sunrise. on cliff overlooking the ocean. the jagged rocks below and the crashed of the waves against them. WOULD BE EPIC THUMBS UP IF YOU AGREE

[alyssahotty18]

Does every video on youtube have a religious debate running in the comment section? why can't people just give it a rest?

[ChristFavorsME]

@alyssahotty18

We'll give it a rest when religious nuts no longer impede scientific research and education, cover up the rape of children, and commit genocide -yes, genocide- by spreading misinformation in the third world about the efficacy of birth control.

There will cease to be religious arguments on boards like this when we no longer see tediously inane comments that claim the musical genius of Bach and Handel prove the existence of a still greater musical genius, "Gaw-ud". Satisfied?

[alyssahotty18]

@ChristFavorsME very much. I still don't really think that we need a religious debate on youtube. I mean, really? youtube?

[mbabbitt98011]

@alyssahotty18 Atheists like the one below are so filled with hate and self-righteousness. Arrogance is their MO.

[lordofflies666]

@mbabbitt98011 umm that's not true. im an atheist and im not filled with hate and self-righteousness. and arrogance is NOT my MO. lmao xD

[ChristFavorsME]

Ah, so sublime, so magnificent!

Every time I hear this wonderful piece of music, it makes the world seem a grandly joyous place, it eternally renews afresh my faith in humanity, and fills me with wonder at the glory of the white race.

Will niggers be found listening to Handel?

Not likely!

[death0personified]

@ChristFavorsME hahahahahahahahahahaha LMAOOO. O MY GOD, i started reading your post thinking it was going to be a regular post about how inspiring the music is for you, i was more surprised at how there is no religious argument on this entire first page (impressive) and then the end was just a gut buster. wow. FYI I'm a black guy, i play the classical violin and study philosophy and listen to music like this ALL the time.

[ChristFavorsME]

@death0personified

*chortle*

I'm not sure if your laughter is sarcasm or if you correctly surmised what I'm up to.

*I'm* black. This is a troll account.

Sometimes i like to amuse myself by posting the most invidiously idiotic comments I can possibly think of, in the guise of a redneck moron.

This one was a real zinger, yes?

You start off thinking its an exalted expression of piety, and then BAM!!

*impish grin*

Gotcha.

[death0personified]

@ChristFavorsME no, twas genuine laughter . I thought it was hilarious. such a good hook in the beginning, a epic climax, and then when you thought it couldn't get any more surprising you through in that ending to demolish all hope. A divine comedy that even the great Dante himself would shed a tear. so my good friend, take a bow you deserve it.

just beautiful. XD

[zaihao]

Just beautiful...

[SaintNight]

Only 1 hater on this song.

Guess that guy has bad tastes.

[TheBobbij]

He is the KING OF KINGS, LORD OF LORDS AND

H E

SHALL

REIGN FOREVER!!

That is the Lord Jesus Christ

[tajayfoot1]

im not a christian nor beleive in it but i think this song is beatiful!!!

[jessicalba7]

@tajayfoot1 yes, thank you!!! can't we just leave religion out of it and just enjoy the music?

[gatorhator21]

Nice. I fucking love this track.

[prophesize]

I especially like the part where they say "Hallelujah!"

[97spiffy]

This score by Handel never fails to lift my spirit. Awesome!

[Radeir1]

Ah, meu canto de guerra de todos os dias!

[Frefind]

i is händel not handel



[13Thison13]

@Frefind Right, in german we say Händel. But in english you also can say handel...

[at4550]

This started playing seemingly out of nowhere earlier when I finally squeezed out a really thick, hard shit.

[futureislove]

@at4550 too funny man!!

[cjetelomar2010]

one of the most powerful classical compositions of all time... Handel's MESSIAH... hats off for this...

[Krylogenic]

Always Inspiring, this always stirs something inside me since I was a small child and I use it this weekend at the World Powerlifting cup championships, its my inspirational song. Thank you for posting it. Wonderful!

[13whitestar]

This is a great number, really-really wonderful. Though I am not a Christian, I like it.

[Erulehtolsa]

jajajajjajajajajjajajajajjajaj­ajajjajajaja its is GREAT

[JohnBlack345]

@Erulehtolsa STFU.

[Lemmetellya]

Hey...It's the song I heard on the morning when I found out my hemorroids we're gone.

[Forkumovah]

Healthier means simply wiser than living and dying realizing that you are now looking at the living God to give account of your entire life. We are a created being with a certain end. No man has power over their personal death. None of us. Reach out to His Matchless Beauty and discover what it is to be healthy in Him. Obey Acts 2:38. That is the door to eternity. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

[rockNsalvation]

Yahh!!! Chukyoo!!!!!! Rock 4 JESUS!!!!!! He is The One, like or not ppl must their 4 Salvation

Is Yours take it ,or leave it, ( For there is One God and One mediator between God And Men,

The Man Christ Jesus.Who gave Himself as a Ramsom for All Men ) 1 Timothy ´2:5 '''''God Bless You All ,,,

[JohnBlack345]

@rockNsalvation Shut the fuck up you retard.

[marcuscato]

Chances of watching a video on Youtube without an argument going on = 0

[W2Zk]

Who would have thought such a simple song with the word "alleula" would start arguments. Watch as someone tells me I spelled it wrong then laughs at my grammar school education, and then threaten to come to my home and disrespect me and my family.

[prophesize]

@marcuscato That's not true! grumble grumble grumble

[greeksotiris]

*thinks of holy hand grenades from worms*

[jnamadeus]

Haha! It was once my favourite game! But it's better to say that 'holy hand grenades' remind us of Handel, not conversely! =)

[greeksotiris]

hehe ;) ok

[VendedorDePastel]

There is only one idea of god, hence it is a common noun you may find in your dictionary. What people diverge on are his properties. Greeks believed multiplicity was one of these properties, so they worshipped multiple gods. Christians believe that love for humanity is one of his properties, though a Deist might not. I don't see much relevance to the issue, personally. To live Christianity as a practice of Jesus' teachings is healthier than a theory on the nature of God.

[Falange2000]

whatever "healthier" means.

[voodooridah]

Love One Another

[MasterShakeRules]

there is no god but Allahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh­hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh just kidding hahahaha

[DallasHammster]

Christians, Jews, and Muslims all believe in The One. In English, the name is "God", in Spanish the name is "Dios", in Arabic the name is "Allah", but they all mean the same thing.

[chuckyoo]

@DallasHammster

Christians foundation is based on Christ Jesus who is the Messiah! No other religion beleive that, so we do not believe in the same God.

[silverblue004]

No offense to any sides, everyone has their own opinions. Leave each other alone.

[2kiki2kiki]

I like the song Hallelujah by G.F.Handel very much, thanks for uploading this video

[chuckyoo]

This Chrous is so heavenly, I love this Tribute to Jesus our King of kings and Lord of lords.

[harmlesstree]

I am an atheist; and I feel the same way. Handel's masterpiece is beyond sublime.

[Elvebrindir]

im curious, why did you feel the need to sate youre an atheist?

[chuckyoo]

@harmlesstree

So, why are you an atheist? Is it that you have not seen the Lord Jesus Himself? Please, what don't people understand? Hell is a real physical place and my heart falls apart to know people are there and multitudes go there each day. Jesus is the only one who can keep us from that horrible place. Please talk with me. I really need you to understand why it is very important to be certain of where you will go if you die today.

[harmlesstree]

Why I am atheist, you ask? Well the truth is, I am an atheist that is really a philosophical agnostic - who depicts himself as atheist in order to prevent myself from being described as a heads or tails theist. That is to say, I cannot prove that an anthropomorphic deity reminiscent of the god of Abraham does not exist. However, there is no reason to believe that such a deity exists, other than that I cannot prove that said deity does not exist, which is true of any other conceivable deity.

[harmlesstree]

Your post if pervaded with ,frankly, irrational assertions; you are begging the question. Simply asserting that Jesus is God, and that Hell is real, does not constitute a rational argument - anymore than does the Islamic assertion that there is no God but God and Muhammad is his prophet.

[chuckyoo]

@harmlesstree

We all have a choice to make friend. You either choose to accept the Lord Jesus as your Lord and Savior or Reject His free gift of salvation that He freely gives because He loves us. He died for the sins of the whole world and now is alive and sitted at the right hand of the Father. Jesus is Alive and reings forever and ever. The choice is yours, but I will tell you this, make sure that what you believe is real b/c after death their is no time to repent. make the right choice.

[harmlesstree]

You're clearly a religious fanatic; thus there is no point in continuing this discussion, really - unless you can fashion a rational argument on behalf of your position. Notice how you are simply reiterating the very same absurd assertions, while expecting me to accept them; assertions that you have not even attempted argue for! Your entire argument relies on the logical fallacy know as begging the question. You are asserting what has not been proven. I am not a lemming; you'll have to do better

[greenlynn52]

This was written to benefit a children's hospital in Dublin.

[aquairiq]

i love the tenors in this song!

[phantom4087]

This is the Karl Richter recording with the London Philharmonic and the John Alldis Choir? It is a sensational recording.

[CountArtha]

My favorite is the London Festival Chorus and Orchestra with Francesco Macci.

[AntoineS16]

handel the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[pcabena]

as far as i can tell this was first porformed in dublin ireland,can anyone tell me how this came to be?...

[karmie87]

Actually..being able to adapt your writing style from standard to non-standard English is a form of intelligence and your prescriptive attitudes are not only ill-informed but a decaying relic of intellectual snobbery.

So what if he/she listens to rap music and appreciates Handel as well? Souljagirl, I hope you continue to enjoy the great classics. Peace x

[photo199]

Did someone post saying "I still luv da song." ??? How times have changed. Illiterate fools commenting on Handel.

He was a genius. He wrote music scores for orchestras, not three black guys wearing their pants around their knees and hopping up and down like the 'fuk-ow-wee' tribe.

[Mozafunkula]

Hallelujah

Beirut

[souljagirllaur]

wow handel omg, i still luv da song though

[goodsirknight]

[Kievest]

There is hope for the human race because it can still be inspired by

such great music. Thank you.

[GenGeogeSPatton]

this man is great but nothing like ludwin van beethoven

[mell211]

uh.....not "ludwin" Ludwig.....but yeah, totally AGREE. I like debussy also. clair de lune (debussy) and fur elise (beethoven) are my all time fav classical pieces.

[vistahermosa48]
