Sarah McLachlan sings John Lennon's Happy Christmas

[DancingAngelicR]

Awww, lovely!!

[cnlysaght]

Just wonderful Sarah Thank you and Merry Christmas to you and family

[SupernalOne]

what is that little falsetto yodel-chirp she does every now and again? A style element or a vocal quirk?

[powercyclist]

fail - takes all the life out of a great song

[sboyer1234]

John Lennon was a genious! This song is timeless it is so great!

[widgywji]

" . . . i still think of dieing animals"

What colour?

[GibsonLord1]

John lennon is the best and everything but when she sings i still think of dieing animals

[illayou]

@GibsonLord1 *dying. haha me too! but I love her and this song. MerryChristmas

[myatoto]

some say copies are never good, but this one breaks that saying. great voice and feelings on this song, hope everybody listen to the message and appreciate those in need. the world would be better if we all give a hand. it's never late to start. let's keep X-mas spirit all year long. HAPPY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!!!! WAR IS OVER!!

[xvinogirlx]

I just love her voice! Amazing!

[lostatsea1912]

Only Sarah could take an already beautiful John Lennon song and make it absolutely amazing! I love it!

[orientgate]

The best. Love you, Sarah

[blakbelt528]

this song sums it up.... i love her rendition....

[VenusRising9]

Merry Christmas, All

[JustinBieberKicksAss]

War is necessary. It protects the Western world’s way of life, & the principle of freedom & liberty. Sure there are deaths, but so long as the enemy experiences more deaths than our side, it's OK. So CHILL, everyone, & support the American government in its war efforts.

[ZodiacBryan]

@JustinBieberKicksAss ur suck dude..go fuck your self

[barbrawalters1]

@JustinBieberKicksAss as long as the other side has more deaths than we do??

you ignorant biggot

war is not to kill the other side, it is to solve different conflicts between two sides.

grow up...

[davidrubiomartin]

@JustinBieberKicksAss Wow ur narrow minded. Tho people like u did vote bush in so its to be expected

[GibsonLord1]

@JustinBieberKicksAss Why don't you sign up for the military if thats the case ?

[Shakkaluka]

I kneel down before her voice..

thanks for posting, have a verry merry Christmas!

[ionlyhavetime]

Ok, first off, I like Sarah's singing, so don't bash me. I just have a very hard time watching her perform because her hands drive me crazy!!! Hasn't anyone ever told her to stop it with her hands already?! Watch her performances and see if this doesn't drive you crazy too?!

[rjma08]

@ionlyhavetime dude , you just cant tell an artist to stop moving hands while singing because that's the way she interprets her singing so if someone do that ,that will be represing music and that's against talent or against art..happy xmas!!!

[SamAndrew27]

Love her voice.

[MsLadyVirtue]

I have never really enjoyed Christmas holidays...of course i love the meaning of it but the way she sings this....makes me anticipate Christmas alil =)

[boster18]

hermosa sarah!!!!

[ref1trillion]

Sarah handles this song with Great Style!

[MrRontelussa]

one word: BEAUTIFUL

THANX SARAH

[TheBlackdove81]

I love this song, and obviously I reckon John Lennon's version is the best... but this is a very good rendition!! Getting ready for Xmas!!!

[cathet]

OH MY GOD! SARAH ROCKS!!

[rareu4532]

Good sing ! good tribute to moste missed "songer witers all the time.. We still love you John =)

[DermochelysCoriacea]

Here's a hypothetical. I get to hang out with Jesus or Sarah McLachlan sings to me personally and then we make love. Which do I pick? I'll tell you right now: Jesus can take a fucking hike.

[Jalenorigby]

@DermochelysCoriacea Some reach for the stars.....you simply don't bother to reach. Have you looked back on that post and said, "that was dumb". Cause if ya haven't, then take it from me...."that was dumb". So now....consider this....guess who gets to tell who to "take a fucking hike" if you're lucky enough to even be able to lay on your death bed, aware of what's going on? Hmmmm??

[DermochelysCoriacea]

@Jalenorigby Are you referring to my post about the Lord? How dare you blasphme.

[Jalenorigby]

@DermochelysCoriacea I believe what you said was, "Here's a hypothetical. I get to hang out with Jesus, OR Sarah McLachlan sings to me personally and then we make love. Which do I pick? I'll tell you right now: Jesus can take a fucking hike".

THAT is the comment I'm referring to. Oh....and you might want to brush up on your spelling, too. (Blasphme)??

You would choose Sarah over "hanging out" with Jesus. Apparently you're desperate for a date. You should probably seek counseling.

[DermochelysCoriacea]

@Jalenorigby I'm not desperate for a date so much as I am desperate to get my stiff little boner lapped. It's tough being a single man in a couple's country. What I wouldn't give I tell ya... Let's chat later. I feel a bile log at the edge.

[MSRACHELWOOTEN]

@DermochelysCoriacea He didn't have to do anything for you. He didn't have to die for your sick desperate crazy ass @Jalenorigby is right and I agree with what she said. You are desperate for some one, just cuz your single does not mean you disgrace God and Jesus like that ever. Not their fault you don't get boners and not their fault you don't got some one

[DermochelysCoriacea]

@MSRACHELWOOTEN You people are nuts, you realize? I have said some asinine things here, undeniably; it's complete nonsense, really; but you've indulged me. What does that say about you? Have you not heard the expression, "I will not dignify that with a response."? What I've written should not have been dignified with responses, but it having been done so, it could ONLY have been by another with as just as little sense as I.

[MSRACHELWOOTEN]

@DermochelysCoriacea You sir are crazy yourself no one is as nutty as you. I admit I can be nutty, but you are far more nutty and stupid. You only said one crazy things so don't act innocent it won't get you anywhere. What does this say about us? Well I have two things for one I'm not going to hell that's for sure and a second it says I care for the lord and I worship him even if I ain't a holy roller.

[MSRACHELWOOTEN]

@DermochelysCoriacea Your response should have been dignified with responses. And if we reply that doesn't make us senseless like you. I care for God and I have a lot more sense than you. There are crazy people like you out there and you need help, but just because your sick and need help don't blame this on us and say we have little sense. I realize that I am sticking up for God and Jesus and that by doing so I am a good person unlike you so blame us for responding and your stupidity. Dont care

[DermochelysCoriacea]

@MSRACHELWOOTEN Let's get right down to it. Give me an argument for the existence of God.

[MSRACHELWOOTEN]

@DermochelysCoriacea what the hell do you mean?

[Donut1337]

@DermochelysCoriacea You can't argue it dude its belief. How about you just don't worry about it, people can believe whatever the hell they want and its pretty much only the non believers that need proof of god and are the ones that like to start arguments, which is sad. And you guys think your so much smarter for not believing but the fact is we both dont know if there is one so just shut the fuck up and listen to the song dumbass

[MSRACHELWOOTEN]

@DermochelysCoriacea WOW that is crazy you have issues, you better hope that god don't put yu in hell. And you never put any one before god or jesus cuz becuase of them your here. Did Sarah Mclachlan save your life or put you on earth. You made a very stupid statement. I would pick God and Jesus over any one and my own desires and anything. Your simply crazy to tell Jesus to take a fucking hike, cuz obviously Jesus should give you the fuckin hike and put you on your death bed. If I was him

[SuperJamestyson]

Sue for peace America, before you start being labelled as a terrorist

[danieldeibler]

@SuperJamestyson You're an idiot.

[SnoreBear44]

Never saw the resemblance before - and probably won't again - but Sarah looks a little like Shania here.

Well, they're both Canadian and both beautiful,, but I never noticed that before. Now, Shania - whom I like - can't sing a like Sarah, but...

[marlodi2003]

Happy Christmas!!!!!

[PauleQueenie]

Happy New Year 2010 to you

[sportfisher48]

I'm an old happily married man however I gotta admit that I find Sarah McLachlan the be the most gorgeous woman on the planet with a voice to match that beauty.

[Raine419]

@sportfisher48 And she has a heart of gold to match all that beauty. She is indeed a very rare gem..

[StarBoy62]

This song gives me chills. Merry Christmas 2009

[IheartCalifornia1]

this is christmas..and what have u done!? have fun

[steforin]

Nothing beats the Old school.... wahahahahahahaha.... but i have to admit that her voice is good... :-)

[1019043019]

I love this song.

[Orlodoffa]

John Lennons song of course, but here the voice of another angel.

[cphoover11]

i love her voice

[godwhyisthistaken]

cool performance.

[JoanneSandyJustine]

i want to cry

[Dominantss]

when that choir comes in, it sounds so good, so melodic

[turtlerock2002]

So, an angel did land at the Rockefeller Center in '06 after all?

[Dominantss]

woooooooooooo GO NOVA SCOTIA!!!!

[asalsa1110]

boski głos

[staintedcards]

she isnt country she's more pop

[InaBabeness]

A beautiful song ruined by an awful country singer.

[Annycoracao]

maravilhos

Sarah melhor cantora do mundo

[wickedcat29]

Sarah is awesome as always!! Am I the only one annoyed by the choir in the background?

[whisperingrainfarms]

I would have prefered a children's chior for this.

[soldersucker]

Does anyone have the video of her performing the song River from this day. This was the 2006 Rockefeller tree lighting. Please post it!

[redpen007]

truly the voice of an angel

[ckuffrey]

such a beautiful song sung by a beautiful lady.

[dial8urmind723]

Great version... is it in a different key?

[nebunia]

No, its original words of Lennon, all.

[mhyl50]

did she change the words at 1:14 to

the world is so wrong?

[jgwyman]

No, those have always been the lyrics.

[phildaddy4]

that's right she didn't change them

[wcdbsd]

A wonderful version of the John Lennon song by one of my very favorite singers. What a voice!

[AudreyR622]

LOVES Melissa Etheridge's version

[Annycoracao]

lindo perfeito

tudo que a sarah faz fica bom

melhor cantora do mundo...

[lacey2013]

I hate people who say that the originals of this song and River are better. Sarah's versions will always be better

[thomasolsen1]

sure it sounds good, but she doesnt have lennons voice. without his voice, no one will ever live up to it

[lacey2013]

he's not THAT good.

[reineremonds]

love

[c3bss256]

Great song! My new fave!

[LjJellybean]

love it more then the original

[wezyap]

I have never heard about Sarah McLachlan before, and I can hear now why, this made my head implode.

[CandiceFan]

The 2nd Best Cover,1st by far is Celine's version

[45798]

her voice is soooo amazing
