Don't miss your flight..you have come to far by faith now.. to be let behind..and you DON't want to be here on earth in the age darkness..get ready, get ready, get ready!

  • ewww fantasia sounds soooo nasty kelly sounds amazing!

  • @dania637 So sad you're being insulting on a holy song. They're lifting up God on a Christian song, and you're calling someone nasty? How hypocritical of you.

  • Lawwwwwwd! I think Kelly and Fantasia both did wonderful jobs! Kelly must have said b*tch u not bout to show me up lol.

  • GAH Fantasia..... Shut up and let Kelly sing! You sound a BLODY MESS!!!!

  • Man! They were straight up having church there! Hallelujah! Glory to God!

  • @Dx5452A i know thats right.....LOL..... I wish fantasia wouldve cutt a step LOL i went in at 3:11...YESSAH!!!!

  • Goes to show you that no one can sing Mariah songs lol

  • @banantwon niether can she now days bahahaha

  • check out a lady named fava they ant got nothing on her watch her on youtube

  • DAYUM!

    i need it to be Christmas time already...

  • 2:19 Love Kelly!. Was that an E5?

  • @LoboAscuridad1 i feel like it was closer to G5, but im not to sure

  • @Jared95C ok. It does sound higher.

  • @Jared95C yea they were all G5's haha, but the funny thing is mariah wouldn't dare attempt it today

  • @BlakeMaplesMusic Haha I love Mariah but yeah it'd be an epic fail LOL!

  • @Jared95C i know right lmao... people may say that kelly stole her version, but i would love to see mariah attempt to out sing kelly now, her voice is shot now lol...

  • @BlakeMaplesMusic kelly made it into her own hah, i get a lot of parts are similar but she didn't steal anything from Mariah, they have completely different styles and voice hah. People these days!

  • @Jared95C i think the melody and kinda the way the song was sang in general mimiced mariah's version... but ohh well i still wanna see mariah and kelly have a belting battle lol... i wonder who would break glass first lmao

  • i love them both but if you need to hear it ok...Kelly destroyed fantasia ...and fantasia was fantastic!!!

  • Despite the credit to these talented ladies, this sounded forced to me. Kelly was clearly not as relaxed as fantasia, who avoided any high notes. Unlike Kelly whose screaming in certain parts was atrocious.

  • I'm black and I think the white lady outsang the black lady! lol

  • @HippieGoddess142 I luv hippies. I'm 1!!

  • I think Kelly did a better job, Fantasia changed the song up too much!!

  • they both sound horrible here.

  • @cw6391 Lmaooo, Kelly's vocals in this performance are absolutely incredible. You don't know what you're talking about.

  • Fantasia ruined it.

  • Kelli Should have sang the song by herslf !!

  • O_O

  • Sorry... The voices are not bad, but you can-NOT just "cabaret" the Holy Ghost. Especially that choir. They were so "Dixie Land A Go Go." And you just can call-and-resonse the name of Jesus with that phone Jee-Jee-Jee. That was so "now-you-now-me-now-you-now-me­..." Again, you can-NOT just "cabaret" the Holy Ghost. Kelly = soulful but not with soul... Fantasia = soul overkill.

  • @SouLoveReal lol well said

  • Mariah Carey Did Not Write This Song But This Verion Of The Song Was Constucted By Mariah Carey Fisrt On Her 1994 Christmas Album Thank You Very Much

  • Mariah Carey DID NOT write this song are you all are crazy

  • @nanee61 No we're not all crazy but the melodies and interpretations that these two ladies are performing on stage is the version that Mariah recorded on her 1994 Merry Christmas album. Wouldn't be surprised if she did write this though because she has written so many other classics that make you stop and wonder "Is this a remake?"

  • Mariah Carey DID NOT write this song are you all crazy

  • @nanee61 This is her version though!

    /watch?v=zmS4K37dh_o

  • Jesus, oh what a wonderful child. Jesus is the reason for the season. Glory to the new born king!!!!

  • WOW! These American Idol alumni are doing anything but committing idolatry as they take it to church on this one!

  • Praise God! These American Idol alums were doing anything be committing idolatry on this one! They gave praise to the King of Kings!

  • kelly was right on , you have to like the way black s drag out a song she was good but kelly has my vote on this one great one kelly

  • that song was written by Mariah Carey ♥

    Mariah is an amazing songwriter.

  • @Fabian597 No this song is over 30 years old. But Mariah performs it spectacularly!

  • @KeiKali mariah doesnt perform it she only did it in the studio

  • @Fabian597 Um, this a OLD Baptist hymn. Mariah didn't write it!

  • Fantasia over sings this song, but Kelly hits it

  • get it kelly you did good but fantasia killed it

  • kelly did great, but fantasia yell too much 4 me. she would be wonderful if she stop yelling!

  • Well you can tell Kelly has listened to Mariah Carey "Merry Christmas" album quite a few times. LMAO!

  • Thank you Kelly and Fantasia for slaughtering that song!

  • this aint mariah.... ahahhahahha

  • THEY'S HAVIN CHUUUURCH UP IN THERE!!!!  HALLELUJAH!!

  • Congratulations. Feature Films For Families occasions. Well done

  • wooooow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • W O W

    i LOVE fantasias voice

  • Kelly made this song her bitch. BOW DOWN.

  • This two singers could not compare to even a quarter of Mariah's take on this song. On the side note, good performance. 

  • Kelly was SANGING!!!!!!!!

  • They did this song little justice and do NOT compare to queen Mariah.

  • @MrJosephJones LOL, untrue. Kelly absolutely killed it. Mariah didn't even hit the notes Kelly hit during this performance in her version.

  • @repenttyourself They were good, but let's not compare to Mariah's version.

  • @repenttyourself

    Neither of these ladies performed this song in the spirit that it should be performed it. Kelly, while her vocal was good, didn't come close to delivering as soulfully as Mariah did. And that call and response session was so contrived, they should not have done it unless they knew what they were doing.

  • @MrJosephJones YOU RIGHT CAUSE THEY WERE BETTER

  • They sang that song! I hate how people came in and made this a race/competition issue, it didn't seem like Kelly nor Fantasia took it that way, just two wonderful vocalist having fun! Sheesh!

  • Praise HIM!!!!

  • don t miss fantasia on america idol tonight at 9pm est singing her new song "bittersweet"

  • I wish I could see Mariah singing this song like in her CD..

  • fantasia is the best

  • ok. i love kelly and even fantasia a bit. but they were both a bit grating on this song. fantasia definitely couldn't hit those high notes that kelly could though.

  • How she is Killing that....she ruined it...screaming all the time.....kelly is the one.....;)

  • Fantasia killed this wow

  • Kelly is amazing !!

    Fantasia is shit, she sucks !

  • Well alright!!!  Work it out Ladies!!! SANG!

  • I love the way they play off each other. Que talento son!!

  • Sing it Fantasia!!! Take it to church!! Great Job!

  • LOVEEEEEEEEE

  • WOO. Kelly has the frakin' best voice.

  • YOU GO KELLY...

  • Fantasia is an amazing singer.

  • in my school i have to sing this song i front of every one

  • but with my whole grade

  • I song this song Sunday. I took a little from Miriah, A little from Kelly and Fantasia, and A little from the original recording the Cosmopolitan House of Prayer Choir. Overall each recording of the song is great. The Church audience like it. All I wanted to do is give God the Glory whenever I sing.

  • on this song, both sisters got soul. You could tell that Kelly was feeling the song as much as Fantasia. They both gave God the glory, and I loved hearing them do it together. When we all get to Heaven, no black or white. We will all sing in the Heavenly Choir. I hope I get to stand between Kelly and Fantasia, I know I will be on Key. Praise God, To God be the Glory, and thank him for his blessing Kelly and Fan with those beautiful voices.

  • amen, to god be the glory !!! we will praise him in song as a mighty choir when we reach his kindom !!!! i couldn't have said It better myself.

  • that's stupid. she wasn't singing with soul she was just singing her ass off. and she blew fantasia away. other white woman that can blow. celine dion. christina aguilera, barbara streisand. I love my singers period white or black. this whole conversation is stupid.

  • Kelly Clarkson, Cristina Aguilera, Leona Lewis are the top 3 that are very Mariah Carey (1990-1997, vocal style) influenced.

    they have said it themselves, so if you HATE mariah, you just hating on the mother of these modern vocalist.. Kelly Clarkson really loves Mariah, she did the version mariah did, but Mariahs version is the best to me...

  • haha fantasia brings out the talent in Kelly haha

  • That is an awesome song, sing by two beautiful talented female vocalist and that's all there is to it....keep it up y'all. God bless

  • ColorFratGuy:

    I don't know if that's a racist comment because there isn't a fact saying white people are less soulful in their music and until that's scientifically proven don't say things like that.

  • ColoFratGuy this is for you, race has NOTHING to do with singing at all! Sure, black people have soul or whatever, but maybe your threatened by Kelly's soul and you feel like you need to say something about her being white or something silly like that, it's really unnecessary, and until a scientist proves black people have more soul I stand by my opinion. Also, I don't care if someone gets snappy with me, I felt that needed to be said. (:

  • to ColoFratGuy:

    Fantasia has a TERRIBLE singing voice. She sounds like a cat in heat being swung around by its tail. She does way too many runs and screeches. She should NOT have won American Idol. Kelly Clarkson has a great voice and always sounds good...she's fab. Stop hatin'

  • Kelly needs to stop singing like she got soul...she's WHITE..if she didn't sing like she was black she'd be alright...FANTASIA should have ruled the song!

  • So she can't have soul because she's white?

    What a load of crap. Girl can sing in whatever fashion she feels like.

  • oh my gosh kelly was so great here and so did fantasia. love it so much!

  • i loved it

  • really enjoyed that :)

  • Praise Him

  • I didn't know Kelly could sing with such soul. big up to her and fantasia.

  • she can when she wants 2.

  • omg dats mi favorite song and den its sung by two ppl i admire da most yah!!!

  • how do i get this as an mp3?

  • amen sister ...

    Glory to our God forever

  • Lord have mercy!!.. This is about the best gospel video that i've ever seen on youtube!! Hallelujah!!! Thank you Jesus for saving my life!!!! Thank you God!!! Amen!!

  • Kelly is way better in my opinion.But Fantasia is sort of more passioned.

  • Kelly was singing it the way Mariah did on her Christmas album

  • i noticed that too crazy2hazy

  • I love kelly so much!!!

  • Fantasia&Kelly sont fantastiques !

    J'adore le gospel et je le pratique et c'est vraiment magnifique ! elles ont des voix sublimes et elles fournissent un très bon travail !

    Vraiment bravo !!!

    Continuez !

    <3

  • Fantasis and Kelly really took this song to the limit. Both did a great job together.

  • I have sung this arrangement (the choir part, not the solo part). It's a fun to sing as it is to listen to.

  • kellys is amazing here!

  • Fantasia sang the song like she really knew Jesus. Whereas Kelly was just singing.

  • kelly looks freakin hot

  • Fantasia sucks !

    Kelly is amazing like always !

  • the two greatest idols ever.

  • Wow! Kelly blow the roof top with this song! Fantasia was ok and what the hell was she wearing! Awful!

  • dey sound like their battlin lol...

    i think fantasia winnin

  • Yeah like, "I love Jesus more than you!"

    "Oh, no, you don't!"

  • that was sooo powerful

  • Kelly has done SO many Mariah songs (or remakes of versions of songs that Mariah has done like this one or Don't Play That Song for Me) and it's strange that I've never heard any mention or praise from Kelly to Mariah (or recognition from Mariah of her obvious influence on Kelly's style and success).

  • dont play that song for me is a remake of aretha franklin. also an influence on kelly

  • Yes, of course Aretha did the song before Mariah, but Kelly "redid" Mariah's version, not Aretha's.

  • Jesus What A Wonderful Child...HE IS WONDERFUL i feel sorry for the people who said what they said about Jesus all you can do is pray for them and hope that they change before they die and go to hell

  • Favorite Christmas song ever!

  • The Video Was Awesome, to the one who said "Jesus sucks it".. Godd Luck To Your Life huh! what are People nowadays.. well Back to the video They Didn't compete To each other that's just how it looks like They're Just Enjoying the song And they're just really performing it well .. in my own opinion..

  • An amateur performance. Thank goodness for the choir. No doubt about it, Mariah is the best!

  • Why look at that! Kelly Clarkson's impersonation of Mariah Carey.

  • They both did a great job... Kelly Clarkson can sing.... Just sounds like she was in competition with Fantasia.

  • The person who said jesus suckz your ignorant.Learn about our savior.You people need to read a bible.You people have no respect for the person(jesus) that gave you life.I know what your going to say jesus didnt give me life my parents did!well jesus created all men meaning he created all of us.God gave up his only son (jesus) so we can have eternal life.Jesus died and ressurected and if you pray and follow his commandments then you'll go to heaven and stay young forever.

  • Your Even more ignorant then the person who said jesus sucks. You have NO idea what your talking about and you are why p[eople think Christans are idiots

  • ur gonna go 2 hell for typein that...ur just a 39 year old virgen.....dont watch the vid if u think he sucks..(wich he doesnt..jesus is the best)

  • agreed

  • you are gonna go hell,how you could say that.. JESUS is life he suffered so much for us and now people like you say that stupid things

    ...if you dont like the video close your eyes

  • Mariah Carey does it soooo much better!! Kelly's alright, but Fantasia is stupid!!

  • my choir just sung it yesterday ^^ was amzin =)

  • Kelly is AWESOME, but Fantasia sang and my dog hid under the bed!

  • Kelly was not awsome! Fantasia sounded better than her

  • We have our own opinions and you can just SHUT UP!!!

  • I think this video is great, if the last person that posted a comment knew anything about music and singing,they would know that when you sing it cares you to a place that only you can feel, especially when you sing about god and the son. Fantasia and Kelly did an awesome job w/ this song!!!

  • Fantasia really ruined this song. Kelly Clarkson has a far better voice than Fantasia. Fantasia strains her voice too much

  • I really didn't care for Kelly Clarkson Because I think she couldn't sing worth a lick, my 9 year old daughter sound better than her. But to hear Fantasia and Kelly they both sound good together.

  • i prefer mariah's version. however, i think this one's really good too. if only fantasia didn't get sooooo carried away

  • You people do know that this was NOT Mariah's song orignally? She put her own spin on it just like Kelly & 'Tasia did.

  • fyi jesus what a wonderful child is mariah carey's original and was co-written and co-produced by walter afanasieff!

  • Okay for those of you who dont know, this is a very old christmas gospel song that has been songed in so many churchs long befor Mariah Carey, Fantasia or Kelly song it. I have been hearing this song sanged since I was a little girl and Im now Thirty. So none of them own this song

  • it's actually quite painful to listen to the conclusion....way too much chest...fantasia already sounds like her voice is shot! Don't get me wrong, I LOVE Kelly and Fantasia has some skillz!!!! BUT....this sounded painful- almost like a shouting competition between the soloists

  • I know Ruben Studdard came out also. Where is he?

  • This was good but to me Margaret Allison and The Angelic Gospel singers sing it best...

  • Kelly > Fantasia

  • Fandom can be so blinding. Mariah is GREAT. She's proven through the years. But that doesn't mean other people can't have their own spin on a song. It is ridiculous that everything has to be a damn competition between fans to "prove" that their OPINION is right.

    And for fucking sakes, because someone does runs does not mean their copying another person. It is a vocal technique that many singers use. No one OWNS a fucking technique.

    People really just need to get their heads out of their asses.

  • you cant compare them to Mariah becuase they arent Mariah you cant expect them to be perfect like Ms version...can you.

    although i do prefer Mariahs version....but thats not the point.....everybody has a signature vocie and mariahs happens to be a little bit better then kellys and fantasias....

    i h8 it when people say oh they sound like this that and the other....evrybodys DIFFERENT...the world would be BORING if kelly sounded like Mariah and leona sounded like Whitney would it....?

  • bad nock off of mimis version. leave this song to mariah!

  • compaired to mariahs version......YUCK! im not even tryin to bash cause i like fantasha but thats not good at all!

  • MARIAH CAREY MARIAH CAREY MARIAH CAREY!!!!!!!

    JE JE JE JE JESUS

    lAMB OF MC

    sATTELITE JONES ((())))

  • Fantasia is amazing.

  • we're doing this song in choir:) so much fun

  • To

    christianpreachr, it's Mariah Carey.

  • Is Kelly trying to be Christina Aguilera or is it just me.

    This was a horrible performance. Christmas/gospel songs aren't about out singing. Thats all they did.

  • Btw you're just jealous cause this sounds brilliant, or can you do it better? You can only wish you could this song like they did !

  • This is very good, you can't compare it to the original version.

  • this is a mess!!! they wish their version was as good as Mariah's!!!!!

  • Is unfair to compare someone with Mariah.

    Mariah is the one and the only one. Is another level.

    No offense to the lady singing above.

  • This Is An Old Hymn

  • Excuse me? She sounded brilliant !

  • I LOVE IT I ADORE IT OHH YEAHHH

  • Amazing <3

    You're horrible by yourself, shut up.

  • they looked like they were having a blast!!

  • These girls are gonna end up with nodules!!!

  • to late kelly has got them already lol

  • this version is a copy cat version of the song on mariah carey's merry christmas albu, pleasse hear that version and then u will see the sqeaking and horrible voices of these two

  • i did this song in a play
