[4thThe5th]

Wonderful...beautiful...and sweet!!! Don't worry about the camera angle...check out the intentional angles on another great channel...10thousandbirds...ha­ppy 2010!!

[pukaman7]

Incredibly beautiful voice! Very clean and pure and innocent! Just the voice that belongs in a Biblical play rather than the glossy and showboat types that don't really exemplify the real meaning of Christmas! Thank you so much for posting this (please post more!) and God bless you!

[ladiesrock83]

Thanks

Chris

[arkgunslinger]

Maria. such a beautiful job.

I wish you and yours a Merry Christmas.

[johnb406]

I'm having trouble telling what some of the chords you are playing are. Could you post them please?

John

[prosperia]

Sure, I'll put them in the info section. :)

[prosperia]

Argh, it won't keep the spacing to keep the chords in the right place over the lyrics!

Well, you can watch my hands to see when I do the chord changes. On words like Israel there are three chords. Ex. Am D Em, and D Am Em..

You might like it different. This is just what I came up with.

[johnb406]

Back to listen again. I am going to use your video as my teacher to learn this song. Again, great job and voice.

[dumfree254]

It's nice. I can't play & sing at the same time.

[phekwig]

What sweet sounds...

[SunnyDazStormyNitz]

Just wonderful! Sunny's favorite too. Since she has been sick this last week, it just hasn't seemed like Christmas time. This has helped bring some of that feeling back. Thank you.

[4EVERTHEOLDCHARRO]

[jimclbn]

Just beautiful my friend...thanks for sharing.:-)

[Emilie191989]

You gave me goosebumps. That's a good sign ^^ Perfect aiming on the high notes, sometimes a bit too shrill on them, but this is really amazing :)

[banjopicker2003]

Amazing vocals.. when you going to record a cd?

[prosperia]

When I find the money to have it done right. :)

[raymondcrooke]

Beautifully sung. 5 stars and Merry Christmas.

[MrsCop]

Beautiful!!! Yes, I'd buy your entire Christmas album :D One of my favs!

[PappyStu]

Called for work early... At 2 am your video steels me for my long day... Gracias, Lass...

[prosperia]

Ouch! Im feeling it at 6:30. I couldn't handle a night shift. :( I gotta get that file to you.. But first I've got to make it. Which is why I have been procrastinating. Maybe I'll ask Mike to do it for me... Is there any way you can rip it from the video?

[PappyStu]

PM incoming

[prosperia]

The files are too big to email, but Mike said he was going to send you a link for some kind of converter so that you can download them directly from youtube. Hopefully I can get him to sit down and do that today.

[PappyStu]

back for seconds... VBG

[DAVIDDAMIENR]

You have a Great Voice,

DDR

[limalicious]

Missing a verse?

[prosperia]

Missing.. Oh about a dozen verses. But come on, who knows the other verses to Chrismas songs.. Silent Night? Come on.. What's the second verse? And NO cheating! :) "shepherds quake? at the sight. sumpin, sumpin, Heavenly hosts sing Alleluiah..." lol

Actually, I didn't record this to put up here, I was just learning to play the song and liked the way it sounded enough to post here. So hence the lack of verses.

[limalicious]

Silent Night, Holy Night, Shepherds quake at the sight, Glories stream from Heaven above, Heavenly hosts sings alleluia, Christ the Savior is born, Christ the Savior is born.

Plus there's a third verse: Son of God, love's pure light, radiant streams from Thy holy face, With the dawn of redeeming grace, Jesus, Lord at Thy birth.

I know it in German, too. XD But I lived for Christmas until this year...

Now I just want Christmas to be over with. =/

[prosperia]

Touche! :) I bow to your all knowing greatness! :P

What's going on that is keeping you from enjoying the holiday?

[limalicious]

My mom is sick this year. Not like minor I have a cough and cold sick...like running to the hospital several days a week for treatments and tests for at least the next six months sick. So, rightfully, decorations and traditions for the holiday season have been laid to waste in the wake of everything. Don't get the impression that I blame her; I couldn't. It just sours the season, is all. =/ I'm spending my time fretting instead of being happy no matter how often she tells me not to worry.

[prosperia]

I understand. But you know, you don't have to go all out to still enjoy a few special moments. Just don't let it overwhelm you. These memories, the ones that are made during the toughest times, are going to be the ones that stick with you the most. So make them beautiful. :)

Always have faith,

Maria

[shoeman3434]

A beautiful song for the CHRISTmas season.

Thank you for sharing this with us!

[2003jdr]

Thanks for sharing !!! I love your singing and it's nice to see you playing instruments again, you never give yourself enough credit for your playing !! Merry Christmas Maria & Family !!

[prosperia]

Merry Christmas to you as well! And my playing is somewhat adequate, but it's nothing to brag about. ;) But I guess if it gets the job done then that's what matters.
