[1lovenature]

This is the best version of Barbra's Ave Maria, every words very clear, absolutely beautiful. Thank you for posting it, bless you.

[cocoinfinity1]

This is my favorite absolutely beautiful.

[ROMANODORIGATTI]

Una delle più emozionanti versioni canore di questa Ave Maria

[bunnybabyxoxo]

[Smileandwavelol]

@bunnybabyxoxo

It made me cry too.

:')

The octaves BARBRA STREISAND - she rules!!

[TheGomesfer]

I prefer her singing Alvinu Malkeinu, suts her better. lol

[popazz1]

@JacksSonKenny,

WTF? Are you deliberately trying to be contentious?Brabra Streisand is a Jew! So I guess you must be a world expert on all faiths/religions,that you can make such a comment.

Anyway,I had this christmas album on vinyl many years ago and it got badly damaged,but I foun dit on cd so all was well again,phew! I adore this rendition of my favourite hymn to the Virgin,Mary.Streisand sings it with such sincerity and clarity.A Very Merry Christmas to all who celebrate the season.

[fan1rundgren]

her voice is a gift, and she has shared it with millions and taken care of it, too, by not abusing her body with drugs or alcohol.

[gkiorpes]

karen carpenter's is better

[TerryLeeForevernever]

i remember hearing this song on an album we had when i was a child, i LOVED it! As a child, i obviously didn't think it was overdone. I thought it was enchanting.

[dlindsey56]

I love this version of Ave Maria!! She does it so well! People from my generation love her because we could sing with her CD's/Album's and actually know the words!!

[rellenoz]

@dlindsey56 I'm like 40 and I LOVE it. This and Mariah Carey are the ONLY Christmas cd's I own. Not comparing the two, but I hate Christmas and these cd's make it tolerable for me.

[SD1Chargers]

Muslim, Judaism, Christian - who is the one man at the root of each religion? Abraham...so we are not that far away from each other as everyone wants to believe or be led to believe. God...Abraham...us...think about it.

[SD1Chargers]

Barbra is a goddess...

[bleger814]

I remember this one well. She was and is still so amazing. Never ceases to make my cry.

Denzo 30:

Please allow me to clarify the funny thing is of all the jews and muslums it is clear you guys simply dont sing about god. If you call your weak dradel songs and no muslum songs of god music you have no music at all. Barbra sang the best music ever made to present to a god. If the world was reliant for a jew or a muslum to make an album to honor a god! God would have killed off the human race. Please thank the american record industry to develp the christmas songs to honor god.

[JacksSonKenny]

I want to say Jacki Evancho has sold many albums. I think Barbara may have reconized her from my posting. Reguardless of the fact. If Barbera or Jackie want to send me a finders fee I would truly appreciate it. I must say. Many people follow my word and watch what I write. After all I am the word of wisdom!

[JacksSonKenny]

It's my pleasure to express atrue feeling from a man who hates so much after what the world has delivered to me. It's nice to see that there are people who actually can appreciate my thought which when read is better than most writers in all the world. I have a way with words as she has a way with song. As you can see I can write for more for you to read.

[JacksSonKenny]

I listen to this and can say no muslum ever recited better or evan could concieve this god like verbage with this god like voice from heavan. I challenge any low class muslum. WE ARE ABOVE THESE CAVE THINGS AND WE ARE MORE THAN THEM. THEY SAY MILLIONS MUSLIMS YES IN CAVES AND DESOLATE AREAS LIKE KARABOO

[JacksSonKenny]

She was the best.  No question

[LunarPaw1138]

This just gives me chills. Every time.

[JamesMorganLondon]

Beautiful. I don't agree that this is a lesser-known version of Ave Maria. This one and Schubert's are very popular and well-known.

[JacksSonKenny]

jACKIE AVANCHO but Striesand holds the key she in my mind has the best christmas album. the jews can learn the christians have the best music when it come to the ficticious god!

[denzo30]

@JacksSonKenny true but odd. a very christian song sung by a jew. i appreciate Barbra singinging this as this is part of my culture at Christimas but wonder was it commercial like every artist then and now.. Probably not should think Barbra would do this but who knows. My jewish friends often talk about her christmas album like wtf

[denzo30]

@denzo30 but with regard to religion, yes. Jews and Christians live in harmony and peace unlike muslims

[denzo30]

@JacksSonKenny if u say so.. if that was the case, there would be 2billion jews instead of 2 billion christians. just saying.. and no offense to jews

[SweetJudith12345]

Simply breathtaking.......

[Kell1295]

Remember your mother this Sunday.

[brocktown]

One of the most beautiful things ive ever heard by far.

[FlyingMondongo]

Karen Carpenter canta este tema mejor. También creo como Sakura, unos comentarios más abajo, que esta interpretación es operática y aburrida. Es el Ave María, hay que ponerle un poco más de calidez. El problema con Barbra no es que sea judía sino que tiene un ego incontrolable.

[cbrun67176]

Not even close.She sings this song and all other Christian song with a certain reserve just as u would if you were singing a Jewish song

[Gaygarious]

@cbrun67176 Bull corn! I sing Jewish songs as they were intened. She sings this beautifully and I've adopted her version each time I sing it.

[coolspindrift]

Isn't this sublime? One of the most amazing, gorgeous recordings of this song ever created. Thanks for your generosity in sharing this.

[abelitro12]

Lesser know? Where do you live?

[Gaygarious]

@abelitro12  I thought the same thing when I read it.... only about a couple of hundred years.... and the version we can sing in the catholic church.

[Kell1295]

Joyful tears

[sedrickvanisi]

such blessed!!!

[genjunkie08]

#1 reason i love barbra over anyone else for the holidays is this song right here

[bubski1100]

Perfection!!! No one can even come close

to Barbra on this.

Thank you for posting!

[sweetnose123]

She sings this song the best in the world!!!!

[stackingswivel]

I dont even care for the woman or her politics. But she has the most magnificent voice. Truly. Just an efortless rich voice. Would love to see her do a christmas show with with one of the great male opera voices like Bocelli.

[brocktown]

Stunningly beautiful. The people who said this is overdone are tasteless fools. One of the most beautiful things I've ever heard. As close to perfection as it gets in this world.

[om92555]

This is so beautiful. Sakura this isn't overdone.

[hirhodes]

I absolutely love her in her early years.

[bedarcy]

Her singing is GORGEOUS !!!

I would have loved to hear it to the original Bach prelude, instead of this orchestral accompaniment, which IS overdone.

[bubski1100]

Beautiful - my favorite version.

Her voice is stunning!

[Sakura52296]

I'm so sorry but David Archuleta's rendition

is just way much better. It's not screamingly

overdone. David's version is calming, soothing penetrating and seriously hits the soul with emotion. Leaves you crying wanting to hear him more and more.

[danmo529]

not realy david's sucks

[l0os3nup]

Archuleta < Streisand

[MartinRaetzJr]

Thanks for sharing this outstanding recording. I was been looking long time for this.
