@featherblue you.... you must not be a real Neil Diamond fan. I like the way he wrote this and how he includes titles from his hit songs. Very creative on his part, don't you think? Just saying...
Normally I'd say, whatever he's had, I want a case of it! I just shake my head how he covers his lyrics, and yes, Why don't more Christian types cover Hanukkah tunes to return the favor? :D Neil, Barbra......they clean up 'round Christmas!! This is a head-turning classic in the making! Love it! Thanks, Neil, u crazy meshuggener cat! WJ
I work at best buy and had to listen to this song every day during the christmas season. Now I had to listen to justin bieber and alot of other crap, but this is the absolute worst song I've ever heard. Neil Diamonds so full of it, and it shows. Im a pretty gentle person, but this song makes me unbelievably angry. I would slug Neil Diamond if I ever saw him in person, and damn the consequences. I'd be doing a service for mankind. Only reason I looked this up is to make sure it was Neil Diamond
@Derl30 LOL sorry for your bad experience Derl30, but thanks for the comment. I know what ya mean...even songs I like, if heard over and over can become tedious.
God, Neil diamond fans are total saps. They fall for any money making gimmick this one can throw at them. Then profess, to 'know Neil as they do'. What a bunch of jack ass people out there. And hey, what about those guitar pic necklaces, hummm?
Now there is another thing well worth spending money on. Dumb women, so riduculous, so stupid. Yes, you ;know' Neil.
If you know, love and understand Neil Diamond, you love and understand the song. If not, you could 1. Choose not to listen to it. 2. Go back and listen to his music from the beginning of his career and then give the song another try.
@freshlyshaven He brushes upon the titles of other songs of his, including "Cherry Cherry," Sweet Caroline, Red Red Wine (From before UB40), Holly Holy, Song Sung Blue, etc.
IT'S NATIVITY AT XMAS, NOT NEGATIVITY! He promotes himself, not like preachers with so-called miracles, filling their pockets with $ from the vulnerable, to buy THEIR OWN MANSION AND ROLLS ROYCE!
At lease, NEIL GIVES US SOMETHING TO MAKE US HAPPY, no obligation or coersion. No guilt if we don't want or can't put some dollars in the basket.
Reality check! Neil, I'll give you my money anyday. Enjoy it and your new girlfriend. At least YOU are not married, with 2 little kids!!! Scandal FREE!
@122222rg; I can understand where you're coming from because I don't think your familiar with Diamond's music. There are a whole bunch of his song titles in this song and so I think it's meant more for his fans. I like Neil Diamond a whole lot. My favorite of his is "If You Know What I Mean". The other titles I picked up were "Holly Holy", "Cherry, Cherry", "Song Sung Blue", "Pretty Amazing Grace", "I'm a Believer" & "Red, Red Wine".
I love Neil Diamond! My mom loved Neil Diamond so much my dad hated him due to silly jealousy *lol* - My grandma loved Neil Diamond, and my children love him too! Now I have three grandchildren who listen to his songs, so how many other singers can claim 5 generations of fans in one family? :-)
finally a recent Christmas song which is great. most of the stuff coming out now isn't so good. how many recent Christmas songs come up in the continual Christmas radio stations? Most are old or rehashed old ones. this one is bound to join the old classics! awesome song. (as for those stereotypical posts... time for you to get some Christmas spirit and stop being so defensive)
What an outstanding song--and only Diamond could take titles of many of his various songs and create a song that's NOT cheesy but rather poignant and beautiful. The man is a legend. =)
Forget about the religious bitsand the 'isms' that separate us - they're not important here. Just listen to the music - such a simple, beautiful diamond of a Christmas song.
Listen to the lyric - 'all the world is one great chorus, you're gonna learn that every voice has got a song' - that's the real message of this time of year!
And, for the many of you who seem to be unaware, Neil has said that regardless of his viewings on religion, he respects the holiday of Christmas and finds it to be a beautiful time of the year with wonderful music and that simple fact earns him INCREDIBLE respect from me! That and the fact that he's one of my all-time favorite singers...
This is one of, not only Neil's, but music's most creative songs in a long, long while! It flows incredibly well, it's really relaxing and fun, it's just an all around great song! It's his best original Christmas song since You Make It Feel Like Christmas, which is one of my all-time favorite Christmas songs! This is too, now! :)
@GamerManT We all believe in Jeebus in one way or another. Jews believe he was simply a poor Jewish carpenter. Christians believe he was the messiah. Muslims believe he was simply one of many prophets with Mohammed being Allah's final prophet.

I'm not an anti-semite or anything but a Jewish dude singing Christmas songs isn't right. This one's pretty neutral but to sing the Jesus-related ones is ackward from both the Christian and Jewish points of view.
