Aaliyah live Christmas in Washington

[WendyfaeArt]

beautiful voice <3 we miss you Aaliyah, R.I.P <3

[KeesusChrist]

She could do Christmas song just because she had an angelic voice. Aaliyah was literally like the angel of music. She looked like one, acted like one, and sung like one. She's like a Hip-Hop princess.

[PoofilyMarshall]

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We used to sing this song in Greek every Christmas at the kindergarten!!!!!!!!!!!!! Memories... And Aaliyah just kills it here!!!!! She sounds A+M+A+Z+I+N+G!!!!!!! R.I.P. angel!!!! And I can hear Mr. Saxobeat playing from another house... Fuck music like that!!!! Love Aaliyah's songs!!!!!

[carmenjones411]

Aaliyah was alive, the Clintons were in office, we were all happy, healthy, the economy was thriving and our pockets were FAT! Damn why can't we go back!?

[730ian]

As the time approaches where you left us; I can't help but think what should have been.. Your true destiny.. God bless you Aaliyah!!! Rip!!

[BadderDenYourz1]

[utterbullspit]

You can tell from this video that Aaliyah's voice was HUGE. 

[Caotic3]

I HAVE THIS ON MY MP3 PLAYER... PLAY IT EVERY CHRISTMAS TIME THIS SHOULD BE ON AN ALBUM.. SHE SANG CLASSICALLY SHE DIDNT PUT THE WHOLE R&B TWANG ON IT..SHE SANG BEAUTIFULLY i prefer her over beyonce cuz aaliyah is an every girl you can relate to her , shes not plastic looking or computerzied i miss this chick the urban community DEFINITELY appreciated her we loved aaliyah.. bey fans dnt get crazy im not hatin on BeBe

[shanzfendi]

if aaliyah were alive she would have killed the music scene. she'd have been huge!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[freddythephenom]

i feel really bad on the 25th of august because that's when aaliyah's death anniversary is and plus its my sister's birthday and i don't celebrate my sister's birthday because aaliyah's death was such a massive lost in my life i loved aaliyah so much and i can't wait 2 meet her in heaven because she is truly a beautiful angel.

R.I.P Aaliyah. <3

[laquisiagooden1]

lovely........its so heavenly her voice

[pierzedntattooed]

I bet it broke the Clintons heart to know someone that performed for them passed away. :( This was so nice.

[xGOSSIPGIRL95]

omg she was singing in front of Hilary & Bill , that girl had so much potential!! love and miss you

[maranji85]

omg this made me cry ;(

[Jezzmee]

Which year was this?

[filmfan555]

he this is actually the melody of "scarborough fair" :D, but very unbe -freakin-lievable good *-*

[5788060]

Hello all Aaliyahs lovely fans How are you guys today? I wanted to run something across u guys right quick itll only take a sec. There is a guy on YouTube by the name of Kwame who has some nice stimulated remixes anyway he has one for Aaliyahs rock d boat record. It could serve as a movie intro. I suggested that he send it to Rashad and Warner Bros. From what I hear there is suppose to be a bio pic. of her life coming out soon 2010 maybe. Aaliyah - Rock the Boat [Stimulated Remix] check it

[JVCHollister]

shes so GOOD

[localibran]

DAMMIT it's just not fair!

[gabri2889]

AWW...RIP AALIYAH & MICHAEL JACKSON...i miss them soooo much

[PsionicJedi]

Such an angelic voice and presence. She is sorely missed.

[BaByXgIrL]

That was sung very beautifully .....

..by a gorgeous star

[MrZaack]

i miss ya so much

[LariluvsJB]

aaliyah RIP!! baby gurrl

[atttd44]

see people dont understand aaliyah held back alot because of her shyness but trust in believe she"s was a true singer with alot of range i wish she would been more relax in her own skin and show these motherfuckers how its done...but then again thats why we love AALIYAH so much because she"s was so humble and layback NO SHE DONT HAVE A BIG EGO LIKE BEYONCE!!! BUT THERE WOULD ALWAYS BE SUMTHIN ABOUT AALIYAH I LOVE SO MUCH ;(

[x2thada2]

@atttd44 It wasnt that she was shy about her voice, she did have a big voice but she created her own style. She sang and carried her voice the way she wanted, she dressed how she wanted, and behaved the way she wanted. She was her own creation and her voice was ment 2 be used in a smooth transition, the voice of an angel.

[superbadTV1]

@atttd44 dam me to

[popi67]

@atttd44 So true!! I had no idea that voice was inside if her, She was a better singer than I gave her credit for. But thank God for youtube cause I'm glad I saw this, I see her in a whole different tight now, and now I'm on the "She would have been BIG" bandwagon, beautiful.



[TheGEMBOG]

@atttd44 could you just see her now, thats y she is not here she was so young HA they new the world was hers so sad :( she was just coming out of her shell

[tristandrews]

Christmas Live in washinton is getting ready to come on TNT soon.Aaliyah you sing so beautifully.

[MosleyRn8]

Thanks for this upload! You made my day

love her

[Esquenitatheoriginal]

i miss her R.I.P Aaliyah

[caymxxx]

WOW see, i never knew she sung in front of the president at that time!!! AWESOME FIND. :):) She is and will always be a bright STAR in my heart!!

[MrTony1625]

I saw this some time ago when her website was running. I hope the movie does her full justice as she was so special! Bill Condon of Dreamgirls is directing so I HOPE!

[MrTony1625]

She sang this so well! RIP Babygirl!

[TheAaliyah4everboy]

and people say aaliyah sing like that men ciara aaliyah voice have range ciara dont watch her christmas in washington

[VirgoRhapsody]

OMG WOW. I was one of the altos in this video. I had a wonderful time meeting her during this experience. I miss Easterns choir and Aaliyah.

[bajeboi]

so what was she like? and could u hazard a guess as to her vocal type

[VirgoRhapsody]

she is very sweet and kind and not shy. We joked around in rehearsal and folks from the choir were trying to out sing her but aaliyah held her own. Her range in my opinion is a alto1 2nd soprano.

[bajeboi]

great thanks for sharing your experience with her i asked her vocal type because noone seems to know what she is

[tazzy775705]

what u mean explain to me what u mean by alto1 and then 2nd soprano u think aaliyah can get up there like whitney and mariah carey in voice and could the choir out sing her

[VirgoRhapsody]

aaliyah used her falsetto voice alot. From what i heard up close aaliyah had nice adlibs when it came to her singing with some of the members from the choir. No I dont think her voice was as powerful as whitney or mariah. she has a nice suttle tone.

[tazzy775705]

yeah falsetto was her commercial voice cause i seen in a interview aaliyah had said that she has a very soft flexiable voice and when she want it, it can be very powerful who knows what she can do all i know the girl can sing and sang

[carmendecor]

@VirgoRhapsody ...Aaliyah was one of the best young R & B artist her music lives on even today...Such a beautiful soul and talent all can take a piece from...

[x2thada2]

@VirgoRhapsody She was a soprano from what those around her have said.

[Mikeh1776]

@VirgoRhapsody what is your name! first name and last initial is fine. I was one of the tenors in this...

[luvmoneymob2]

R.I.P Aaliyah

I wish you was here so u could shut all tha new artists DOWN!

[Dotson03]

who is that at 0:44

[bajeboi]

Bill Clinton the former president of the United States and his wife Hillary the current secretary of State of the United States

[mariahmadrileno]

[2009xox]

What is the title of the song that Aaliyah sings?

[nichick39]

The look on presidents clintons face hearing her sing .. pricless. Obama would probably have done the same. I wish she was still alive today.

[thesecret14]

her voice is soooo sliky...one of a kind for sure

[Katerinna]

[AaliyahBrandyMonica]

it still sounds good but u can tell she was nervus she had very bad stage fright i reamber her saying that in an interview she didn't like singing in frount of people and when she was in the studio they would have to dim the lights for her so she couldn't see anyone. But alot of the times i thought she sounded better live then in the studio RIP Aaliyah

[tears37]

well i sho couldn't tell plus did you here finally there making a movie about her

[wrightbrooks]

and its about time, but i do remeber in 2006 a movie was supposed to be made about her. it was going to be called more than a woman and megan good was going to star as aaliyah, but i dont what happened to that project.

[wrightbrooks]

i heard dat to. and in my opinion she still sounded better than most singers today singing both live and in the studio.

[AaliyahBrandyMonica]

[weLURVEtinaCHEN]

to all the ppl rating her in ciara, get a life, shes pased from us, and al u care bout is if shes better than others tht still get to become stronger.

[GAslickmouf]

Y N THE HELL do people worry about talent whn it comes to CIARA?  Y?

Whn yall listen to

geek looking boy

crank everything there is to crank

12step on yo face

snap shit

batman

shawty yoooooooooooooooooooooouuuuuu

all dat other shit is not talent either its entertainment, so y it gotta b about talent whn it come to CIARA? but whn it come to that other shit, 4 sum reason its ok.

yall r sum wishy washy fans, n yall r not loyal at all, yall quick to switch up shit all the time!!!!!

[javonmod]

good job but for the person under me what does this performance have to do with ciara... so what she did better they both did good so why compare them did u get up there and shit all over ciara???? i doubt it i don't understand why everyone compare them when they are two totally different people

[143960079dc]

damn she shitted all over ciara performance of this song

[leccegirl10]

R.I.P she´s the best!!!

[datboywitdemvocals06]

I dont know if anyone ever heard that people thought she couldnt sing. I was like come on now, i mean her school erebdy can sing. I dont know to much about now. And i mean more than just a good voice actual connections ya feel me?

[bajeboi]

yeah alot of people felt she cud not sing some people beleive to sing meant screaming and shouting like other singers did Aaliyah did not fall in this catergory but there is no doubt she can sing nd when it comes to falsetto she is up there with the best

[2phatand2short]

there were a few songs where she hit high notes but she sounded so beautiful wen she sang soft

[ajkinkycuffs]

this was a great performance.

when was this?

Such a short and beautiful life.

[clashpower]

R.I.P Dana

[wickedband]

i'll remember aliyah till i die! god bless her soul

[ayeboi]

There is no other voice that can bring tears to my eyes. She was a gift from God. There was something about her voice, her presence, her beauty that was just sublime

[JayMerc75]

Wow this is just too much why do the good people have to be sacrificed and the garbage has to be free to live out their lives. We need people like Aaliyah to give the world through their art peace and comfort. I truly do hope the son of Mary is comforting her and her family as she waits for his return.

[watchinU2]

I sang with Eastern High School Choir (the choir w/ the red, white and blue robes) the year Aaliyah sang. She was beautiful in person and voice was amazing! Her smile filled that room!!! Singing at Christmas in Washington was always one of my singing engagement with the choir! We truly miss you sweet Aaliyah!!!

[lemonhonee]

people please compare Aaliyah masterpiece to that Ciara Give Love On Xmas Day where she sang infront of the president and embrassed black people, could not hit a high note if she tried.
