  • very VERY rare video!!

    She is a sincerest woman ever lived on planet Earth i know‼ In my opinion

  • Shania does a great job with this song...

    also see the Vince Vance version...they are both fantastic.

  • nuthin but love for you !!!!

  • Vince Vance & the Valiants, "All I Want for Christmas Is You" - Lisa Layne singing, was released in 1993.

  • Coool

  • She us really good

  • all i want for christmas is shania's ass....

  • i love Shania but shes pretty whack in this performance. Definitely havin an off day compared to what she normally sounds like.

  • @Crazycupmuffin I agree she wasn't up to her usual vocal par, but I still enjoy this take on the song, lol.

  • All I want for Christmas is Shania Twain or Mariah Carey. Give me a break its a tough choice

  • liar liar Mariah Carey didnt not write this song it was Vince Vance & the Valiants in 1989

  • @nechtjar its a mariah carey song so what

  • @nechtjar Show me the Vince Vance version, which you think is original!? You are so wrong, Mariah Carey and Walter Afanasieff wrote and produced this song, and it was published 1994 in Mariah Careys Christmas Album.

  • @nechtjar Yeah, there was a song with the same name from Vince Vance but this one IS TOTALLY DIFFERENT AND MARIAH CAREY IS THE ONE WHO WROTE IT!!!

  • @nechtjar Mariah Carey Song Is A Tottaly Different Song From Vince (Who Ever That Is)

  • I think she sang a beautiful version.

  • Umm... Mariah Carey didn't write this song... It came out in 1989. Do some fact checking Shania.

  • @DukeBlue2012 Carey did so write this song. Do some fact checking yourself there.

  • @4545als First off, she co-wrote it. And second off, THEY may have changed some words but it was originally written by Vince Vance in 1989.

  • @DukeBlue2012 Okay. The lyrics are basically the same. Take that out on Mariah, not Shania. She was in the clear here.

  • Shania was 33 years old in this video, yet she looks about 24 or 25. She has such a beautiful face. Shania is definitely inspiring in many, many ways.

  • @SexyLilLezNTx She is soo thin it helps her to look young, how much does she weigh?

  • Love it!!!

  • your the best shania!!!!! and your canandian that is so coollllll me too

  • Nice. I love this song. Mariah is a brilliant writer.

  • I LOVE SHANIA TWAIN!!!

  • I'm more into rock 'n roll, but I realize that Shania is very talented, and that she's survived adversity. And you'd have to be blind not to realize she's attractive!

  • Eilleen Twian is a very beautiful woman with a very beautiful spirit and a very beautiful voice.

  • Absolutely love Shania!!! And her voice! :)

  • I love it!

  • No sane man would *ever* cheat on Shania Twain.What was that clown THINKING????

  • @listerone Cheating is not about what someone looks like. Beautiful people are cheated on all the time. Cheating is about the character of the cheater. I do understand that you're making the point that she's gorgeous :o)

  • God!! I could eat her up in this video !!!!!

  • Mariah carey and lisa layne both have the same song title "All I Want For Christmas is You", but the song itself is not the same. The words are different and so is the music. Listen to them both beford yo comment. The version that shania is singing is Mariah's. Written and originally recorded by Mariah carey.

  • My favorite Christmas song covered by my favorite singer!!!

  • Lisa Layne doesn't sing this song!

  • mmm sorry shania but your flat as a pan cake

  • @colours63 no she wasn't.

  • Love shania but MC owns this song..

  • mcr beat you hun

  • Poooor rich women......

  • I can't STAND Mariah Carey!!!

    But, Shania Twain does a much better job on this song.

    I really prefer the version recorded by Vince Vance and the Valiants.

  • @writesong it isnt a different version of this song. The only thing similar thing between those two songs are the song title. And Shania does a great spin on this, but I disagree with it being better than Mariah. But i may be biased.

  • @writesong All I Want For Christmas Is You is an original song written by Mariah Carey.

    It has nothing to do with Vince Vance and the Valiants!

  • @Ihateeminem1985

    It might be an original composition, but it uses the same title for the same subject, i.e., Christmas.

    I've seen both songs and there's no comparison - - - the version recorded by Lisa Layne of Vince Vance and the Valients is THE best and only version I'll listen to.

    In fact, I liked it so much, I recorded myself playing my guitar and singing that song, and posted it on You Tube.

    As for Mariah Carey, I've never heard her sing anything I liked.

  • @writesong Well! You must be deaf then! :-p

  • @writesong I agree that nobody can top Lisa Layne's version, but I do like Mariah Carey, but she is a different type of singer. I do prefer Lisa over Mariah. By the way, what title is your song on YouTube. I would like to listen to it.

  • @mannymanano

    The name of my video is, "HOME FOR CHRISTMAS?", and it's posted here as a video response.

    It's a combination of "I'LL BE HOME FOR CHRISTMAS" and "ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS YOU".

  • @writesong fuck all the shit you've said... nobody reads you

  • @Fsoaresl

    YOU "read" me, didn't you?

    Why the use of foul language?

    Don't you have any respect for the other folks who use this forum?

  • @writesong I'm a mariah carey fan and i respect shania and this lisa whatever... go see her videos, you don't see me saying the things you say in her videos... bye

  • very good

  • Hello u guys r talking about her vocals why don't u guys try it and we'll see who sounds better now?!!!!!!

    Shania still sounds so good......

  • I dunno why Shania hasn't done a Christmas album yet

  • Shania looks so young here! She looks like a young girl.

  • Lisa Layne with Vince and the Valients, version from 1993, is the best version of this song hands down. Lisa Layne's video with Vince is ok, but the vocals are tremendous.

  • who are the dudes baking vocals?

  • Mariah owns her for this one.

  • @bachoff she was doing a country version. If she tried to sing Mariah's arrangement and style, I'd see the point of comparison.

  • Comment removed

  • The most beautiful woman on the planet.

    Jealous?

  • @StimpsonJay im just a bit jealous cuz im too heavy to sit on piano

  • haha, she said crimuss! LOL

  • wow that sound fuck'in white

  • I think that's kind of F'd up that she would bring up the fact that her parents died in a car crash. I think she should be slapped for that.

  • @jignc1984 i agree. I have friends that have parents or a parent that died just like shania's parents did and they wouldn't like that do be bought up to them since it's difficult to talk about. If I were Shania and she asked me that, I would've either grimaced at the interviewer, or given her a scowl.

  • Shania Twain sucks. Lisa Layne OWNS this song!!!!!!!

  • lovely interpretation of this song

  • Shania are beautiful 

  • Shania even says in the interview that she normally sings her own songs, however, today she is singing a song that was written by Mariah Carey. If you listen to the interview, you wouldn't have to wonder who sang it first. It has always been Mariah, who originally wrote and sang this song, which became an instant classic back in 1994.

  • fucking interviewer. total bummer idiot.

  • mariah version must better , i love shania , both my fav ,

  • Lisa Layne with Vince vance and the Valiants was the original and That version is the best. Listen to it.

  • @mamacat2151

    Stop lying to people. That is a completely different song. Mariah Carey wrote the song that Shania is singing here (and Shania does a good job covering it).

  • who sang it first mariah or shania

  • @duckywallaby  mariah wrote this song

  • who cares what Mariah thinks....this is a true talent.

  • Why is everyone trying to steal this song..... FAIL

  • @80sKatt ridiculous. No one is "stealing' anything. It is just a cover. Chill.

  • nice way to ruin a christmas segment, katie. "tell us about your dead parents! Merry Christmas!"

  • @lorio3 haha this video was cut from the context. It really was not like "tell us about your rectal stroboscopy" being said out of nowhere on Martha Stewart's culinary panel :)

  • WELL HERO.MARIAH ISNT THE ORIGINAL.THAT WOULD BE THE INTIAL VERSION SANG BY THE VINCE Valance

  • @SuperPaintball27

    Are you retarded? They aren't the same song. They just have the same titles. Mariah Carey WROTE this song. Shania says so at the beginning of the video.

  • @SuperPaintball27 Actually, Mariah Carey wrote, produced and arranged this song. It is an original that has now become a classic, which other singers are now recording, without much success, as is obvious during xmas time when the only version you here on the radio is hers. The Vince Vance & the Valiants song, although it has the same title, it's two different songs. Look up the lyrics for each song and you will see for yourself.

  • "smo'kin"!

  • hey jijazzy, do your homework! This song was written by Mariah Carey. There is another song by the same name by Vince Vance and the Valiants which you must never have heard since they are completely different. DUHH, wipe the spittle off your chin dummy.

  • la version de maria carey le da mil vueltas a esta!!!

  • fail!!!!!!!! mariah didnt write this!!! go look for the origional!!!!!! ***VINCE VANCE AND THE VALLIANTS!!!***

  • @jijazzy

    You are talking about two totally different songs! Mariah Carey did write this song!

  • Because they died a month before Christmas.You would do the same.

  • Lisa Lanye is a hell of lot better than all of them put together ...... bring 'em all on she'll put'em to shame!!!! The origal artist always does...lol

  • She did better than Miley....

  • Shania is amazing! Love her <3

  • vince vance and the valiants christmas song all i want for christmas video is better than mariah and shania put together! And only a liberal news reporter like katie courie would ask that dreadful question that close too Christmas.

  • @Lilkaysis94 only a tea bagger would care.

  • poor Shania.. her parents died??!! she was a great singer, with a very good voice. I loved her album "Come on over", and I bought it, of course. Too bad she's not active anymore..

  • hmmm i like shania but she should never have attempted this song there are 3 divas in the world who noone can do justice to and they are mariah whitney and celine

  • She looked you young. A lot younger than 32, which she was at the time.

  • Perfect version!! Love you Shania! <3

  • i dont see why some peopel are being harsh about this video and shania ?? Shania is an amazing singer/ performer and done a wonderull country pop version of this song. Shania is the msot sucsessfull female artist just behind Madonna and Celine Dion !

  • GEEZ.

    ALL WE NEED IS ANOTHER VERSION OF THIS SONG.

    CAN YOU ALL, GIVE IT A REST ?.

  • @fervent66 you're 12 years later.

  • @fervent66 It's not like this was a new version, this came out 12 years ago, there weren't ten million other people singing this then.

  • Wish we could hear her sing without the idiot bitch interviewing her.

  • @Pugiron Sorry, but Katie exposed Palin for the fraud that she is..........deal with it.

  • I like Mariah's version better, but this isn't that bad...

  • Pure talent no electronics on her voice,  Very nice

  • Both of them have their good points, Shania twain made it sound more country. 

  • Disgusting ? No , Testostorone ? Yes .

  • shania is such a darling...she's actually sung a 'rival's' song..you're sweet ST

    :)

  • I like Shania's version better sorry Mariah!!!

  • Check out my cover of this song. Shania sang it pretty good, I sing it the way Mariah does though. Let me know what you think. Thanks! ;)

  • Comment removed

  • I love this version, and I love Shania. And for all you saying something about Mariah vs. Shania, or whatever. SHUT UP! Let me tell you something, I am a hardcore Mariah Carey Lamb! But that doesn't mean I'm gonna come on here and diss Shania. Why? I have class! Besides, if you look up the videos "Celebrities Praise Mariah Carey", you'll see Shania saying great things about Mariah. They respect each other, and so should we. They are both amazing classy, talented, beautiful women. GET OVER IT!

  • I love this. And I'm a Mariah's hardcore fan. Shania's version is, actually, the only version I like, besides the original.

  • I get wood when I watch this video .....

  • @spirg disgusting

  • Wow! I so love this song... Let us not compare shania to mariah. They are in different genre though shania already penetrated the world of pop. She already proved her talent. By the way, it is still better to watch shania on video. So gorgeous!

  • Seeing her on that piano would be image that would stay with me Forever !!! Talk about a turn on !!!!  - Lucky You !!!!- she is Awesome !!!!

  • I was there that morning standing outside the windowsof the NBC studio watching her on the piano. We could not hear any of the music outside, but Shania did turn and wave to us before she left the studio. I like to think that she was waving just to me! Unfortunetly, only the east coast was able to see this performance at the time, because the Monica Lewinsky scandel was announced and this segment was replaced with the breaking news story for all the other time zones. Nice to finally hear it

  • bad version!Mariahs is so much better...

  • U know it's a true classic when different artists like cover it during performances

  • Anybody know when Shania is coming out with a Christmas album?

  • Correction - a group of ...

  • One of the most perfectly structured faces of any female ever ! ( a groupbof scientists agreed on this in 2009 )

  • this song really rocked the music scene

  • sooo sweeeet

  • I love the way changed the melody to suit her style! Nice rendition!

  • SHANIA LOVE MC SONG!!! DEDICATED TO MARIAH'S WORK

  • This is Mariah's song! There is no, "well, this version is better, blah blah blah" It's MC's song!

  • Mariah Carey is Shania Twain's inspiration :)

    I like both versions BTW !

  • Mariah will always be the original, Shania still did good tho. Sure blows Miley Cyrus' version of the the water!

  • @Hero1989 AGREED.. MILEY TOTALLY SUCKED

  • @Hero1989

    Leann Rimes version is the best.

  • WHOA she looks so.. young!

  • @blahhduhhx3 yeah ... actually she's 33 in this video

  • God ! She's so cute in this video !!!!!!!!!!

  • how dare katie

  • who cares who sings better? if you clicked on the link for this video, you must have wanted to see SHANIA sing :)

  • @meg2393 lol

  • Comment removed

  • Mariah is Mariah, Shania did a good cover but no one does Mariah's song most justice than MC herself. I like Shania, but MC is untouchable. OH I LOVE MC (:

  • I prefer Miley Cyrus's version.

  • i dont think you can compare her to MC cause they sing totally different mariah is all high with them big notes shania doesnt have that voice shes more country with a twang so please dont compare them its like comparing a rock song with blues lol

  • good cover...one gets a complete different feel from this version...i still prefer the original but mariah would be proud of this and having another legendary singer singing a song she wrote...thats honor

  • People can say "She or he sings this better than so and so" but you know what. I think it's great that artists come out of their comfort zone and try to sing something different. It's a great way to better themselves. Well done Shania.

  • all i want for this Christmas is Shaina's new album!!

  • lolz a country version. so cute :)

    mariah's version will always be the best.

  • Are you dumb or just on crack! This version sucks! She doesn't come out with her own shit anymore. Also you Bonnie 979 stop trying to compare yourself to Shania saying shit like " Me and Shania have so much in common I really feel like we're close just like sisters" Shania would never be close to you and you're never gonna meet her. Ever!

  • even mariah would agree this is a great version

  • if dat happend to me i'd be down and out, shania is 1 strong woman!

  • Shania was the same age as i was when i lost my father , she was 21 when she lost her parents in a car crush . no end , no beginning.

  • shania twain est nee en1965;cette video date de 1998; donc elle a 33 ans pourtant elle a le phisique d une fille de 22 ans!!!!

  • I like this; it was really sweet and simple. I would have liked it more if the backup singers had toned it down though.

  • Why the fuck did her family's death come into it before she sings a Christmas song?

  • @gloomyoutlook ....because Mr Gloomy...Christmas Is All About Family sacrificing a little time for one another & sharing good times with the less fortunate ones.Did u even pass your 1st grade?

  • @gloomyoutlook maybe because this interview was a week before Christmas....so yes it's relevant.

  • @misschristine3451

    what the fuck has the date got to with it? it was inappropriately timed and it brought the mood down. If they want a fucking interview, do one where she's not sitting on the piano preparing to sing.

  • @gloomyoutlook Yeah. I was thinking the same thing.

  • @gloomyoutlook  They asked her a question and she answered it.

  • @gloomyoutlook you're a moron like all the ppl below who still didn't figure that out

    Shania sang the song because the lyrics had a special meaning to her, not because she intended to outsing Mariah. While the song was written as a letter to Santa from a horny teenager dreaming of a boyfriend for Shania it was about missing her family during Christmas time.

  • Comment removed

  • @gloomyoutlook I shouldn't have called you names as it's not your fault you were born with cognitive abilities being retarded :) Let me help you understand. The presenter was suposed to ask that question so that Shania wouldn't have had to start the topic all by herself. Now do you understand? Smile and have a nice day:)

  • Comment removed

  • @gloomyoutlook aww, don't be angry, i'm not laughing at you, poor thing. Let me answer your doubts once again. The host's question was relevant as Shania was opening up about her past in an interview and then she wanted to explain her song choice. I've already explained it but no one expects you to understand things right away. Take your time.

  • @MrJudube

    honestly, your contrived condescension is pathetic. get a life bro

  • @gloomyoutlook this is a nice riposte. See, you can think when you try. Keep practising.

  • Amazing how Kate can fuck up everything. How does she feel about HER parents death. GOD Kate get a life besides your 20 year Gigillo! If you sent your plastic surgeory money to help the poor it wpould really really help.

  • i love her version but i think she could sing it better cause she look like theres something wrong and like she couldnt give it all. i dont know if anybody else noticed but still and i dont think she even tries to be better than mariah

  • who gives a **** if mariah is better or not, this is shania not mariah, go type mariah in the search if you wanna see her and like her better. Do you like people coming into maria videos and talking **** ???? why do it to shania????? im sure mariah enjoyed shania, bet she watched it too and smiled and liked it. so STOP WITH THE CRITICISM. and katie didnt help much either!!!!!!! go watch someone else if you dont like shania is my point!!!!!!!!!!! right shania fans??????

  • @jriley2008 i don't even know shania but i agree people shouldn't comment shit like that even though i still like mariah better you're still right.

  • @jriley2008 Shania has a nicer voice to listen to in my opinion. Mariah is too much of a showoff. 

  • @snowcloud MC is too much of a showoff becoz she don't sing to idiots like u who don't know shit about real talents and music! duhhhh

  • @lcklkul You CAN'T be serious. Are you? Or, let me put it so you can understand....R U seer ee us?
