  • the emotions original version is the best, but this one with LaBelle is amazing too. MERRY XMAS EVERYBODY!!!

  • I like Patti's version, but The Emotions version will ALWAYS be my fav.

  • Same here.

  • She's wonderful. I couldn't see the truly talented side of R&B without there first being her! Wonderful!

  • I've been to very few live concerts in my life. One of them was Patti Labelle in 1995 and I will never forget it or her. I seem to recall at one time she actually put the microphone down and sang straight out. Someone out in the audience said "it's ok, Patti, we know you're for real"....and that's just it....she's for real

  • I remember that concert...I cried

  • What do the lonely do...they listen to this song all day and hope that next year is better. Thank you Patti, you made my Holidays better.

  • Her version is beautiful you go Ms. Patti//

    Merry Christmas 2009

  • Seasons Greetings!!!!

  • @playboyquan That is so true I agree.

  • @ncognegro69 U really think this? WOW! I guess it's bc I really love The Emotions version & heard it so much that I disagree... but o well!

  • patti labelle something serious with that voice of hers patti hum that song , i love this lady she will never go out of style! what an great singer!

  • Comment removed

  • The Church of Patti rules!!

  • Patti brought it alive!

  • This version is much better than the other one. Sing Pattilicious!

  • i love Patti LaBelle. but ive been loving this song since i was 11. i didnt know who sang it then. im from old school. so i gotta have the Emotions on the radio at Christmas time.

  • When somebody gets the Emotions recording, please post it. I need it.

  • for some reason they had it on youtube, but had to remove it. you might want to get a cd or download it, i really dont hear it much on the radio anymore. so i bought the slow jams christmas cd.

  • its good to listen to christmas songs all yr round..cause as soon as its over all christmas stations and songs dissapear until christmas again...and its a shame cause there are some really good ones

  • this is just as good as the one by the emtions.

  • I love this song I think she nailed it I love the parts when she sings what do they do what do they do. love it love it love it

  • I love the way Ms Pattie sings this wonderful song!!! This make the Emotions proud of the way she sings their song! Emotions rock this song also!

  • I love both versions. The Emotions Harmonized very well, but this version seems full and well rounded. I could really squeeze and hold my baby tight on this version even though the song is about lonely people. Go Patti!!

  • i repeated this version until 3am this mornin..ABSOLUTE crediable cover <3 .."talkin bout the lonely..yea YEAAAAA.."

  • Maybe it's because I don't really know the original that well, but this is really nice.

    Adlibs are a little... strange, but I like it.

  • for those that prefer the emotions' version to patti labelle's, do not feel like you have to apologize.

  • What a good job of reclaiming this song....

    Congratulation Patti!

  • I love the way Patti sings it she gives this song alot of feeling. Powerful voice love you lady.

  • hell 2 tha yeah!!! sing it Patti Patti!!!!

  • Patti is from Philly. My hometown. I support her but this song is not for her. She sings it in key but using her Patti voice to itThe background is awful.

  • Yes, I am patti fan, but im sorry, the Emotions version is soooooooo much better!!!!

  • I agree with you. I like Patti too but this is the Emotions song. When Wanda, Janet and Sheila says "What do they do, what do they do? at the end. You believe them!!! It's as if they are speaking from experience.. Ok, I just got it. Patti said "she's talking about the lonely people. She said "they wish". The Emotions seem to be talking about themselves as they can relate, as in "US". Those of us who are lonely on Christmas. Not "them" as in other people. (If that make sense) LOL.

  • I hate the background...give me the original but I don't blame Patti(this time) she actually laid down some nice vocals.

    The harmonies of the legendary Emotions just can't be beat.

  • this song right her is my shit

  • this is a wonderful powerful sad and amazing song all at the same time

  • Patti you voice is magic, You made all the lonely hearts disappear when you song this song. Amazing

  • This woman is something serious!! She is awesome!!! Merry Christmas Everyone!!!

  • A Wow ...What a Woman ...what a VOICE !!!

    Graet great !!

    Thank you Patti for this Music ....

    Patti dziękuję....

  • Ms. Patti works this song.understand me.

  • Patti murdered that song. Damn.If I didn't cry the whole time. I don't believe anybody else could have covered it as well if not better than The Emotions.

  • I feel classic songs should be sung by classic singers and needless to say Patti defines the way I feel about that on this track.

  • SHE A BAD BITCH....GO PATTI

  • is this the new christmas album or the older one?

  • This is the new one

  • @laron214 honey its the older one and im young and no that

  • @laron214 oh never mind honey its the new one sorry

  • I Like this song...it sounds good with patti singing it...i love 2:09-2:12

  • Love this song. Patti Labelle always on point.

  • thanks for the tidbit about the song and for posting this. I don't have the CD b/c I don't celebrate Xmas.

  • Very Hott Song!!! Fresh New Sound For Patti!

  • SANG IT PATTI!!!!!

  • This was a very nice video. Thank you for posting. The album is excellent. My favorite are It going to be a Merry Christmas and What do the lonely do. Excellent background vocals on the LP as well.

  • Yo, I don't celebrate any holidays but Patti's CD is slammin and I can listen without all the extra stuff that is associated with X-mas that normally turns me off about Xmas songs.

  • I LOVE LOVE LOVE her version! The Emotions did great as well! But Patti made the song longer.

  • One word for the album: MAGIC

    Patti's voice is love and love and more love. Wonderful songs, colorful vocals, warmful soul. This is what christmas music should be. The best xmas cd around, great production, soulful melodies. God bless Patti

  • Og god a magnific album, so many wonderful songs, my favorites are every year every christmas, hollidays mean more to me, It's Going To Be A Merry Christmas!! God a magic album, Patti's voice is love.
