[hextatron]

[pipari100]

Dang, I love this song... ♥

[Ansoile]

grazia no gratia, it's latin

[zwoooooooooosh]

@MummyDemon thanks so much for that :P

[zwoooooooooosh]

@chipncharge94 get off my channel

[chipncharge94]

c'mon... bad pronunciation

[loquesientoporti]

OMG ....este cantante es genial, no me canso de escucharlo, y cada dia me sorprende más. Esta cancion es muy especial y oirla en la voz de él lo hace mas todavia. Gracias Michael Bublé... Luisana se saco el premio mayor con esta gran persona. Saludos desde Perú.

[loudproud69]

Crisp & beautiful......moves me very much, Grazie

[minicorey7]

this made me melt!And im straight :O

[Walrayn]

frooctoos

[amoamareamabo]

thanks for the upload! i like his rendition of the song, particularly what his unique vocal style adds to it

and yes, everyone, it's in Latin. I'm pretty sure it's the Latin of the "Hail Mary" prayer. just translate it with conjugations, declensions and all.

and it's interesting that I see Anaheim Ducks tagged, @zwoooooooooosh

[CarleyLoves]

YUMMY.

[lvref702]

Beautiful song. Michael does well with a difficult song. To aquamarine705, the language spoken in the time of Jesus was Aramaic.

[shumba18]

i like his voice

[yrene1973]

stupendaaaaaaaaaaa...wonderful­!!!!!



[ohLinnie]

OMG, someone should have told him that that the "t" in "gratia" must have been readen as a "z". So is "grazia". So, so, so bad Michael. (anyway the song is beautiful as his voice :) )

[monklob]

Me gusta su versión!

[nosvemosenotravida]

Sos lo más!! 

[rusiosifemil]

@Ellie072515 this is 100% latin, not french!:)

[TheScreaming4silence]

This is not Latin. Nor is this french. This is sung in the language Mary used in those times. So it is Arabic. Ave maria means Rejoice Mary

[AttyEK]

@TheScreaming4silence hahahahahaha... have you done some research before u typed the comment?! It's latin my friend. Who lied to you?

[aquamarine705]

@TheScreaming4silence Youre not very smart. This is Latin. And the Virgin Mary would not have spoken Arabic, she would have spoken Hebrew...

[ImJustSayin2014]

@TheScreaming4silence um no. This is most certainly not sung in Arabic. It's Latin.

[Gina97xls]

beautifully sung and thank you for posting! and his latin is beautiful! :)

[buster9877]

This man just may be the new Frank Sinatra! 

[dclipe]

@buster9877 Eugene Landau is the new Frank Sinatra.....Michael Buble is special, and unique!

[chipncharge94]

@buster9877 still far away from him ;)

[dlaur1]

This is one of the more tasteful versions of this songs besides listening to an opera singer or Frank Sinatra singing it. Way to go

[zwoooooooooosh]

@Ellie072515 I feel bad for saying that, I know my language is bad, merry christmas!!!

[Ellie654312]

@zwoooooooooosh Thats okay.

[zwoooooooooosh]

@LdyOLorien :P nice comment, thanks. and no probs.

[zwoooooooooosh]

@Ellie072515 this is what you wrote 1. zwoooooooooosh watch your mouth there could be little coulds looking at these posts. YOU WATCH YOUR MOUTH I'M THE UPLOADER!!! HOW DARE YOU!!!

[Ellie072515]

1. zwoooooooooosh watch your mouth there could be little coulds looking at these posts.

2. I'm in latin and this is not even a LATIN SONG! It's French.

3. He sounds great!

4. I LOVE HIM!

[ohLinnie]

@Ellie072515 D: You can't be "latin", you could have been Roman at least, since latin was the language of the Roman Empire. IS NOT FRENCH AT ALL. I don't wanna live on this planet anymore .____. [and YES is LATIN, like in Cicerone, Seneca, do you know?]

[LdyOLorien]

And don't get fed up zwoooooooooosh.... thanks for sharing these songs!! Much love and light to ya. For schizzle! For sure!

[LdyOLorien]

I like his style and he can say it...sing it....any way he likes and it is still beautiful.

[Doplghost]

All caps = serious buisiness.

[zak1586]

I'm Italian and even Italians would pronunciate latin in a bad way without studying it a t school. But Michael is a singer and I thought that before singing a song in another language singers studied a bit also the pronunciation. Anyway Michael has a really beautiful voice and I appreciate a lot his effort ;) Merry Christmas!!

[jkramer0223]

Hey...so him not being Latin doesn't make sense...Latin is the language of the ancient Romans and is NOT spoken anymore (except in the church it is sung); it is not an ethnic background....and his pronunciation seems alright to me...and I studied Latin...

[dankerz00]

I love this guys version of he song regardless of his pronunciation, He slammed it. Probably one of the best I've heard...

[SunsetSix]

I LOVE HIS PRONUNCIATION! REALLY! Hearing ANY Latin today is music to my old ears.

[hawneyz]

thank you for posting my boyfriends' music :p haha I wish. but seriously, I love his voice, it's so soothing..... <3

Who cares about the pronounciation? Still sounds amazing, doesn't it? :D

[TheMinou71]

Hey Everyone..dont argue about Michael just enjoy is song!

[zwoooooooooosh]

Oh my days, for the LAST TIME GET OVER HIS PRONUNCIATION I'M FED UP OF EVERYONE KEEP BRINGING IT UP, EVEN IF YOU ARE COMPLEMENTING HIM!!!! STOP GOING ON ABOUT IT!!! 1 MORE COMMENT AND I'LL BLOCK EVERY SINGLE PERSON COMMENTING ON HIS PRONUNCIATION!

[MummyDemon]

@zwoooooooooosh Hi I just wanna tell you that i could'nt agree more with you!! :D Those low life people who only seems to look for the small and mistakes that people can such as pronunciation mistakes, does NOT have a life at all !! SHAME ON ALL OF THEM!! But you get a BIG THUMPS UP FROM ME!! ^^ :D THANK YOU A 1000,000 times

[IbegtoDreaM95]

Hey...I'm Italian, I study Latin, and trust me, his pronounciation is not SO bad to be an English native speaker. And of course no one can "be Latin"...

Great song and voice, so touching

[orrgord]

Best moving song ever........Merry Christmas my fellow people.

[MrIgnryan]

lol.. yes indeed bad pronunciation.. but can enjoying his voice in christmast still valuable... ^^

[laurcee2k6]

Bublé is a gorgeous gorgeous man.

Why must everyone be arguing about Latin? Leave the dead language alone. So what if he doesn't pronounce it correctly? It's a language that now a days have never to be spoken, (except songs and well church) only be able to read.

The reason why learning other languages is because they are all derived from Latin, the language made by the Ancient Greeks which went onto the Romans and they spread it across most of Europe with their empire.

[johnnylaf]

who cares it's christmas :D and i love this song so MERRY CHRISTMAS everybody

[llarissaahhh]

snowflakes!(:



[Namekiandragon]

There is another melody to Ave Maria that i usally hear around christmas. This melody was sung at my grandparents funeral and - though it is absoluty beautiful- to me it is not the 'christmas' version of Ave Maria. Still, Michael does sound good.

[ohLinnie]

@Namekiandragon The one you're talking about must be the Gounod version, love it!

[TheJohndeering]

michael buble is like one sexy man soo dont be saying bad stuff about him

[771Manny]

The Italian,Spanish,Portuguese,and French languages are heavily based in the ancient Latin language. Their lands formerly belonged to the Roman Empire centuries ago and the Roman language at the time was Latin.People fluent in these languages today have it easier reading,pronouncing and singing in Latin because of this.

[kevlauzon]

@771Manny Just to tell you, you are completely right execpt for France. It has never belong to the Romans lol it's just because pf the economy that French is based on Latin, because it was the language used for business :)

[chrystalized19]

@kevlauzon Actually Manny was right, the lands which now make up modern day France were part of the roman empire which extended towards modern day Germany.

[emotionalmusicTV]

check out my channel for more christmas songs :)

[britineyo]

if you don't like it, don't listen to it

[zwoooooooooosh]

@Nistol11 screw you

[isiboynava]

@zwoooooooooosh good job

[mimprincesa]

this is a beautiful song! U should listen to the choral version as well. sounds so holy.

[magdalenedp]

wrong latin pronunciation, i'm not latina but still can pronounce the latin words correctly..i learn because i go to traditional tridentine latin mass..beautiful song, a prayer to Our Lady.

[xGoblue1999x]

@magdalenedp pretty sure its the thought that counts ;) i sung this at christmas mass last year and even though i had the pronunciation right he still sings better than me!!!

[AbbyITMS]

@zwoooooooooosh There is no such thing as a Latin person in the sense that their native language is latin. Latin is a language that has been dead for years, there is no nation or ethnicity that speaks latin in existence today. Of course Michael Buble is not Latin because no one on earth is Latin. Latin is not an ethnicity or nationality or race or anything of the sort. However, that is a credit to how hard it must be to sing in the language.

[kamlaky]

The song is beutiful and sung very well. Latin is an old language and used to have latin masses in most countries till 70`s. Still latin is used in more traditional churches in all over the world. The song is sung in LATIN. No connection with LATINOS!!!

[mstowers1226]

I should of used this version for my wedding! Very nice!

[LIVingDreams1984]

oh boy.

[Zape00]

that one goes for my grandma

[08sunbabe]

um, how can any one be having an arguement about grammar and pronunciation when micheal buble is singing??

[1Hannah730]

Will everyone calm down? Shooting down people who correct pronunciation doesn't make you any better. Facts are: 1) Michael Buble is a great singer 2) His pronunciation is not correct. Yes, in the vocal world, pronunciation is everything, so respect that people care about it. It doesn't mean they are hating on him as a singer. Everyone needs to settle the hell down and just enjoy the music. Besides, criticism is a singer's best friend. Take it from someone who knows.

[observe2suspect]

if it was sung always the same way it was just dull and boring. when we sung gloria in excelsis Deo with the american comunity choir of Augsburg, it was strange for us germans how the americans pronunced "excelsis"...

it might have been a good idea to listen to Pavarotti or Bocelli as italian should be closer to latin than english, but i guess, that latin spoken in the roman colonies sounded similar to english in India or french in Haiti in our days.

[HoneyB9481]

"He's not latin." HEY PEOPLE, Latin is an ancient language, not an ethnicity or nationality.

Get informed.

[supergirl6011]

@HoneyB9481 Double thumbs up!!! Too many uncultivated people in this world...I just kept laughing every time I saw.."Michael is not Latin..."

BTW..Bublé is the best! :D

[DermochelysCoriacea]

Pronunciation is for pussies. There is revelation, then truth as objective, then normativity, then opinion - grammatical correctness, and, finally, the least important of all, pronunciation.

[07932dash]

even if Micheal doesnt say stuff right it still sounds great! :)

[rossmcallister1]

As no one alive today has ever heard latin being spoken by the native speakers (as they lived at least 1500 years ago) no one knows how to pronounce it properly. Therefore it is open to interpretation. This is Michael Buble's intepretation.

[zwoooooooooosh]

GET OVER HIS FUCKING PRONUNCIATION!!!! HES NOT LATIN GET OVER IT!!! ANY MORE COMMENTS LIKE THAT WILL BE REMOVED!!!

[mstowers1226]

@zwoooooooooosh - I would like for those who are complaining so much to sing this song! They couldnt even get one line right! Amazing song and Michael does a wonderful job at it!

[tercjawielka]

@zwoooooooooosh Today noone is latin ;) And he's perfect.

[tufa94]

grande michael...ma il latinoo???

[jdblhop]

So many seem to be forgetting something rather simple in saying that the latin and the song it self was sung wrong.

1. All songs sound different from one singer to the next.

2. He is from Canada so he does have a some what accent that makes some words sound different to what you might be used too. Last but not least all he and the uploader is trying to do is share with the world a love of christmas songs that many might have heard when they were growing up.

Merry Christmas

[emiloveyouful]

Wow...that is beautiful! Though he's not Latin, he sure speaks the words of this song very well! Good job Michael, and to the uploader!

[MrsMackan67]

I´m in heaven!!!!! Chill is going down my back. This is so much enjoy and feel good. This voice is like velvet :) Thank you for this!!!!!!

[swim4ever236]

I have been just sitting here with my eyes closed this whole song almost put me into a deep "sweet dreams" sleep :)......his voice is like soft silk on your skin, its is like a lindor truffle melting all over your mouth, it is....... it is.........beyond compare, Gorgiuosly BEAUTIFUL! :) <3 michel buble forever<3

[dulceemarina]

awwwwwwwww si antes lo amaba cn esta cn esta cncion lo termine de amar mas! aaaaaaaaaaa

[sallustio1000]

bellissima canzone...ma "GRATIA" SI LEGGE "GRAZIA" !

[vale92mitica]

@sallustio1000 è latinooo :D

[ohLinnie]

@vale92mitica GRAAAANDEEEEE!

[vale92mitica]

@ohLinnie grazieeeee :D



[MummyDemon]

Oh i love this guy, he has such a beautiful voice!! <3

[00000000000000077491]

In quanto a pronuncia ha preferito utilizzare la classica e non quella evangelica o scolastica. Poi dovete pensare che sta CANTANDO in latino, non parlandolo.

[zwoooooooooosh]

Guys Michael Buble isn't Latin get over it...

[mypat1959]

@zwoooooooooosh there are a lot of people who have sung this beautiful song for many many years that are not latin. it is about what the song means not who sings it!

[ImJustSayin2014]

@zwoooooooooosh Technically, nobody is "Latin". It's a language, not a people group. And anyway, if you're going to sing in a language, you should at least bother to learn what you're saying. I'm not hating, I like Buble well enough, but I don't think it's fair to freak out on people who point out that he is in fact pronouncing it wrong.

[Freaky983]

@anthonyvenanzio Hi Anthony, that's Latin actually... I am Italian and I read your comment before listening, then I wondered why I couldn't understand a word... XD

[Bennay1010]

Que bien musica!



[graceoc1994]

woow! gave me goose bumps !

[al5extorres]

wonderful voice !**

[Ergiovi]

i'm so sorry for a little mistake he's done, gratia is pronounced grazia...nice singer =D

[Sharkyshark1984]

@Ergiovi I have to disagree. In classical pronounciation the t is always a "t" and never a "z" or "ts". He comes actually quite close to the classical pronounciation, but he should say the "v" like in "w" in English.

[Freaky983]

@Sharkyshark1984 I disagree, too... T is usually a smooth "t", but TI should read "zi" and that's a rule.

[laura221093]

@Sharkyshark1984 the correct latin pronounciation is graZia. I'm italian, I study latin, I know what I'm saying..however I love Michael =)

[MrJDTurk23]

:)))) it´s unbelievable awesome :)))

[hrvatica41]

jako lijepo veliki pozdrav iz Hrvatske!!!

[anitavervarcke]

Magnifique!!

[anitavervarcke]

Magnifique Prachtig Suberbe!!!!!!

[xolilangel16]

Angelic voice.. Gives me chills every time. :) <3

[sistormrider]

this man is so super cool... 

[SorchaofSevenwaters]

goosebumps much! looove his voice and interpretation of the song

[yertwat]

Latin is a dead language so surely it's pronunciation is open to interpretation.. I like this song - he did a good job of it.

[creadok1]

I am getting chicken skin, how we say that in the Netherlands! Very good! His whole cd/music is VERY GOOD! Regards from the Netherlands.

[cicurug14]

My wedding song <3

[ItsInferiority]

LOVE this(:

[puffettastellina]

celestial!

[feisher]

horrible he cant sing that kinf of music

[PoofDaddy1000]

@feisher Piss off, he's got talent you don't look were he is and look were you are, he's the King of Swing and your, looking him up on the internet, your proply King of the Cry Babies you jelous wimp.

[ographymaniac223]

@feisher Are you fricken kidding me?!?! Michael's voice was made for this kind of music! He by far has the best Christmas album out there nowadays. Don't go on a vid like this and post that kind of crap. Just try to sing this song better hypocrite!

[nicolekraft175]

classic latin pronunciation actually sounds very plain. It would be weird if he didn't sing if with this accent (AP Latin student:)

[susieistda]

I actually love him, but he needs to work on his latin!

[sinatrabooth89]

@susieistda yea, his Latin does leave a lot to be desired. I would think that the record label would have hired someone to coach him on his Latin before recording something like this. To be completely fair, the majority of his listening audience wouldn't know the difference anyhow, so I guess it isn't that big of a deal.  It is what it is. I know even Buble would agree that his version is nothing like the literally perfect Sinatra recording from 28th March 1945.

[ilovestevilliers]

@Dreamer617 , you my friend ... are a DICK! ... LEAVE BUBLE ALONE! Jealousy doesnt look good on you hunny! ...get better bitches!

[MissRossy89]

fantastic

[darada8m]

For all those that are complaining about Michael - NO BODY'S PERFECT! His voice is amazing, his efforts are amazing. Look where he is in life and look where you are... Jealous MUCH! Now sit down, cheer up and stop complaining. JHHHHHHHHHHEEEEEEEEZE

[BrawlOfDuty]

@darada8m Not jealous, if you going to sing a song for the world i would expect your pronunciation to be spot on if not perfect. Especially such a religious and famous Christmas song

[darada8m]

@BrawlOfDuty Fair enough. But he's not Latin and nobody's really perfect :L But I understand you

[lovelyeveningstar]

I can't stop listening to this song. I've listened it all day long, but I'm still not sick of it. I'll never be. :)

[zwoooooooooosh]

@Dreamer617 how dare you come onto my video and comment like that, and just clicking this vid to hate is pathetic. Get off my channel and go home. Maybe you should take shutting up lessons.

[mypat1959]

@zwoooooooooosh i cannot stand people that have to come on here with foul language! it is CHRISTmas! not selfmas!

[Nistol11]

@zwoooooooooosh nerdrage!

[turkeykiller38]

Michael Buble brings back my childhood!

[NaomivH94]

love it <3

[oakville58]

A unique style but am so concern of d lost 7th and diminish notes that are primary in the song. But still a great version. Thanks.

[heidithewitch]

I can´t understand, that such an amazing singer doesn´t have a coach for latin pronouncation... 5 minutes work and we haven´t this discussion...

[Danny30011980]

Beautiful melody...one of my all time faves and nicely sung. Thanks Franz Schubert & Michael Buble! :-)

[kacosenza]

This is beautiful! What talent! I could listen to him sing for hours!

[krnannable]

beautiful

[claudiavicini68]

I love Michael, but the pronunciation is not very good, you should correct

[lizelliotmusic]

He's pronouncing at least half the Latin wrong. And scooping the beginning of each phrase.His vibrato is like a machine gun. I don't understand the hype with this guy. I think the people who like his voice have no clue about singing.

[claudiavicini68]

@lizelliotmusic Please do not be so drastic, his voice is beautiful, no one said it was Pavaroti simply a pleasure to hear

[turkeykiller38]

Michael Buble sings the type of music I grew up on, thank you for sharing this!

[Jimysalad]

 sung... to a Heavenly Lady

[Jimysalad]

This song reaches depths I like...

[MrGiantyak]

Good song :D

[TheFofifonfec]

Beautiful

[zwoooooooooosh]

@mcrf4 you need to take lessons on what good talent is, michael buble isnt latin, its not his fault, he sings this beautifully. well done @ty1zoto

[Dreamer617]

@zwoooooooooosh good talent doesn't sing with vowels that horrific. maybe you should take um. music lessons?

[TwilightBellaForever]

@Dreamer617 Stop hating and get off the vid if you don't like it.

[Teekles]

@Dreamer617 I'm pretty familiar with choral singing, and the shape of vowels. On that note, buble doesn't need to participate. It matters a lot more singing in a section, rather than solo. He's allowed to make diction changes to suit his style, which is appreciated rather than using vowels with the paradigm of unoriginality.

[thebatwatcher1]

@zwoooooooooosh "michael buble isnt-- latin"!???? Do you mean "a Roman"? Or maybe a 16th century European nobleman? Latin hasn't been spoken as an official language since the 17th century. Sorry. But I just couldn't leave that out there.

[Laful414]

Caro Michele, sei bravissimo ma ti serve qualche lezione di latino.

[claudiavicini68]

@Laful414  tienes razón :)

[tubojunior]

I've been wooed to the next level.

[lovelyeveningstar]

It's a magical song performed by a magical man.

[mcrf4]

Michael needs to take lessons in Latin pronunciation. I can't believe that the producers didn't catch such obvious mispronunciation. He's not dancing the 'hora' (the 'h' is silent in 'hora') and 'gratia' has a 'ts' sound for the 't'. Wow.
