[0Tala]

she can't sing -_-

[Loretta7718]

Thank-you Jesus!

[Stacyloveshorses]

this is the best version of the song i've ever heard. they are a great combo and their voices both fit the song

[njay182]

all those haters, as if they can sing this song any better. -_-

[LittleCiaraCat]

Here, u try and sing like that.

Oh ya. buurn :P

[avrileroxever]

cool video!! All the haters are so stupid!!!

This song is amazing... Avril and chantal shine together!!

Thanks for the video!! :D

Happy xmas!!! ^^

[Katykool1265]

god she sucked.

[SOLIMDAq]

shw was so young when she recorded it. amazing <3

[fireburning3155]

She kinda really sucks!!!!!

[celios8]

Seriously sounds like a 7 year old girl's rendition of this song for an elementary school talent show. And not even good enough to be the winning act. Terrible.

[cheyenne7498]

love it <3

[ItsSoMe2011]

people hate because they have a problem believing in Jesus

[SammyPadalecki]

316 idiots don't like

[Mimikulsmac]

i actually really like this

[msjlpalo]

Merry Christmas!!! :)

[Kamishiro15]

Why are there so many haters? Yeah this version isn't that great, but FYI, Avril did this song with Chantal for a Christmas charity album.. it's not like she got paid for it.

[CrplHicks]

The question is...how does this get radio play? She's better than alot of us?? Are we all tone deaf?? My god, her song can kill your Christmas spirit.

[DannyDyer85]

Oh what a difference between Avril's voice and Chantal's voice... I love you Chantal, you're an amazing woman! <3

[JuicyFiletMignon]

HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE! My dog could have pooted this song better.

[elizm09]

the harmonies are really pretty:)

[roseannecorpuz]

i love avril voice,,,

[allysa48]

hahaaa.. i love avril! but honestly her voice doesnt suit this song!

[carlyfrancisable]

She doesnt suit this song shes to flat. She needs to go higher!

[angelpie3749]

@carlyfrancisable No she just doesnt have any emotion. 

[carlyfrancisable]

@angelpie3749 True 

[127zombies]

THose of you complaining about it not being good enough, you make a career and sing this song, shes alot better at singing then all of you

[britineyo]

KELLY CLARKSON DID BETTER, but i love avril either way lol

[lovelyloveloves]

is this serious? haha

[iamaveryuglyboy]

this song is so funny XD

[santi940118]

=") AVRIL CANTA MUY HERMOSO!!! AMO ESTA CANCIÓN, ES MUY LINDA =) CHRIST IS THE KING!

[1981aliyah]

ommmmmggggg what da hellll???? someone make it stop

[Yoicenight]

I'm very like this Video

[Malleolust]

What the hell? Ew.

[emilyish013]

I think avril sounds great.

[xoxonkittikxoxo]

I personally love this version. It's my favorite since it's so beautiful and simple. And I'm sure she DOES in fact CONNECT with the song, because she sang songs for her CHURCH all the time when she was younger.

[kelvinpyaeko]

@xoxonkittikxoxo no..she aint lmao

[kelvinpyaeko]

'oh holy night' is not one of those cheesy pop ish every-one-can-sing songs. it's such a classical song. they can't handle this song. yeah, sounds like a child who has no idea of the meaning of the song and can't connect it

[xoxonkittikxoxo]

@kelvinpyaeko yeah. she did. look it up. don't argue about subjects you don't know about. she sang for her church all the time when she was younger. and by the way, she's not punk. her albums are more pop, and sometimes rock. but her albums are classified as pop. and this isn't the only song she's sang that's about God. there's "Two Rivers", "Temple of Life", "Hallelujah", and "Touch the Sky" are all examples. so go listen to someone else if you don't like her singing them. it's simple.

[kelvinpyaeko]

@xoxonkittikxoxo oh..Mr. Tantrum! i am talking about 'connecting the song', which she can't. of course, ever christian sang in church since childhood every sunday. nothing unusual, isn't it? and when did i say about her musical genre? i like how you guys always throw the lame repetitive word 'if you don't like, don't watch', lmao..i am her fan and have all of her albums lmao..but she can't do this song justice. so stating the honest point on this song does refer how i don't like her? OH

[PinaColada4645]

She sounds like she is being forced to sing this song in April or something lol.

[Cla900]

LOL

this is beyond horrible...

[FreyaDiamond]

her voice wasnt made for this kinda music, lil girls and boys into all that sex music just for the money need to stay where they belong.

[branch5009]

The reasons posted below of why this version is not good is EXACTLY the reason why it is SOOO good. She just sings the song... it's powerful enough in itself. I don't need people remixing it to their taste or throwing acapella *sp into the song and ruining it. I wish more artists would take this approach with Christmas songs.

[RyanGeorgia32]

The emotion that is lacking in this song can be found in Bryan Hawn's version #OMG totally gave me chills!

[Mikealxy]

Avril's voice is so clear and strong. I like that despite her well known vocal power, she shows true artistry by exercising restraint here and serving the song. Love her so much!

[xHeteroChromia]

I usually like your voice, but this is definitely not her thing. I could do better.

[SuperFantasticMan]

0:46 Autotune

[Rezzmari]

Eww...this is bad. XD

[weykmanfr]

omg, vibrato is really soemthing ahahhahahaha

[peptopro17]

talent show

[mrsjimmyurinelove]

lol

[circusays]

she did this when she was 14, i hope everyone realises this

[77jesusma]

avril you are just soo good..... better... and the best....

[braders101]

avril shoul not have tackle this one

[ElenaFeick]

my favourite Christmas Carol - and I love Avril Lavigne, and Chantal Kreviazuk, both of them - normally they put out some excellent music.

But this was terrible - both singers have much more power and emotion that they can offer to a song, surely we all know this from listening to them before - and this song is worthy of that emotion and power, not a rendition that sounds, frankly, a little bit like maybe someone talked them into singing something and they would really rather be somewhere else

[bowiehs]

Some singers do not need to tackle a christmas song :(, this is pretty bad.

[nobodysfool999]

I don't even like this song, but this is the best version of it that I've ever heard. Avril is just incredible!

[missawesomeswan78]

This is my favourite Christmas carol, and it's just been ruined.

[tamika50]

@missawesomeswan78 If you have something to say about Avril Lavigne You better say it to ME! if your a hater then why don't you just shut your little mouth up!

[missawesomeswan78]

@tamika50 Wow, first of all I'm entitled to an opinion. And in my opinion this isn't a song she should have been singing. And secondly who are you trying to be? The next Chris Crocker? I'll be awaiting your video - "Leave Avril Alone!"

[kelvinpyaeko]

@tamika50 it's not about hating, you idiot. that's the truth. such classic songs are not to be touched by other genre singers (in her case, punk rock or whatever u name it) like avril. you better go learn some basic music

[gards2]

lol that was disgusting

[Ahdren]

I think even Madonna could have done this better....her only Christmas song credit is Santa Baby

[gliehwermsche]

the worst version of this song i ve ever heard!!!!!!!!!!

[msyl1991]

thankyou. avril lavigne was horrible

[1D4ever]

Horrible, that's what a corps sounds like. Flat off key without any emotion the average person could do much better. It's like a person singing something that has no meaning to them like they are reading a que card.

[DaWonka90]

was das denn für ein scheiß ? die frau kann so oder so nicht singen .... konnte sie noch nie und wird sie auch nie... !!!

[nerdychik22]

she gives me hope...that someday I will outshine her. Although not much shine from her at all....

[sammylief19]

ugg

[nocturnal1AU]

oooh, my ears! >.<

i'm sorry but who's idea was this?

is nothing sacred anymore? :P

this is normally the most beautiful carol

sorry Avril but you made it sound like trash...

[lbsweethart]

This is probably lacking in emotion because the meaning of the song probable isn't of the highest importance to either or them.

[nocturnal1AU]

@lbsweethart i think you've nailed it...

[MelaniePortrip]

@lbsweethart

Right... I'm pretty sure it would suck even if they were devout Christians.

[songbirdsweetie44]

No emotion :(

[MrEliezzzer]

I'm sorry but she SUCKS nothing in her VOICE D:

[ilovezette]

i love avril but she sounds bored. thanks for saving it, chantal. even with a sleepy canadian opening, iloveit.

[RunningARampage]

Youd think autotune would make her voice sound good. that shows how crappy of singer avril is.

:/

[DaniNicoleJRE]

im sorry but she reminds me of a possum........or however you spell it. and i hate the lack of emotion

[Swifted17]

@DaniNicoleJRE Funny you should say that, considering she voiced a opossum in the Dreamworks film 'Over The Hedge'.

[SAHARASHLEY]

it's a nasty cover

[Sapphire848]

I love Avril, but she has no passion when singing this. You can tell when she spends longer on random words rather than 'Jesus' and 'angels'. Such a shame, I was looking forward to hearing her project in this song.

[flshstar1]

What? is this really her singing "Holy Night?' Holy crap! this is horrible,,probably one of the worst among well known singers. Some amateurs singers sing better than this.

[fantagenaurto]

beautiful

[fairytalesofyesterda]

She sounds like an 11 year old singing at her 6th grade christmas recital.

[RiientJ]

@fairytalesofyesterda I agree on that one... !

[atolm1]

horrendous 

[alina1432]

this is good. because she makes it personal. says my saviour is born! <3

shes a good singer! <3

[mixinuxomuch]

cute .

[iDirtyDianaX]

no passion no emotion

gross

[Sushibart]

wtf dont chose to sing a christian song and change it to king instead of Lord. if you dont like it then dont sing the damn song...ps horrible singing aswell...

[jennisaldivar]

oh wow this is most deffinaltly not her style.

[CSMSnake]

O Holy GOODNIGHT This sux!

[AnnMarmellata]

I don't think that you sing like 5 y.o kid here. I was your big fan, don't know what happened. Your version is not the best, but i love it.

[LiNkEnPaRkGiRl]

also ich finds eig. ganz gut :D mal was anderes, solange sie ihren style nicht wechselt ist das doch mal ne nette abwächslung ^^

[jennynicole89]

lmfao avril has not musical talent in her whole body.

[311diamonddoll]

Wow. This is fricken horrid.

[x19o]

WTF.

[otpaloma]

lol. She has no range in her voice what the..... Simon would rip her Apart. Oh well, I like HER but Sorry Avril, Maybe you should stick with Scater boy.

[maxxsleep]

hmmm...

[pinkmusiicluva]

I love Avril but FUCK THIS IS SHIT!

[technocrash09]

They made me type in a word to post my comment. The word was "finfarlo". That's what THIS is----------FIN-frickin-FARLO!

[ambria1997]

Lisa Lavie is way better than this !!!

[jamiearies]

I liked avril until i heard this.

[warshock333]

I think she can do better than this..but this is so bad!

[4GREENJACKET]

WTF....WAS THAT, my fucking ears are BLEEDING?

[technocrash09]

@4GREENJACKET

Quick......go listen to Celine Dion's live version! It will repair the damage!!!

[5H4WDYYY]

1:17 LMFAO!

[lordofmyarse]

wow she can even manage to fuck up a simple christmas song...damn..avril

[SOPHIEROX987]

HEY GUYS ITS THE JONAS BROTHERS PUT INTO ONE PERSON

[987three]

WTF??!! WAS THAT! Love Avril...but my favourite christmas song has just been ripped apart!!

[frankdemeanor]

Can she even sing ballads?

[technocrash09]

@frankdemeanor Better question----can she even SING?

[frankdemeanor]

@technocrash09 LOL-yeah that is a good question...My word, this has to be the worst rendition ever--talk about scary carols!

[jhugrae]

@TreasureOne im also christian but hey, if u think that she sounds like a satanic then u dont know her at all...... she's just like that Avril sings like she's bored.. that's really the sound of her voice, even when she sing energetic songs like that of blink 182 and basketcase etc. she still sings that way, her voice is just so unenergetic.... u shud c her in her concert.... its not so lively but thats just her... u shudnt judge her to much w/o knowing her at all...

[prettypansyraver5]

this just aint her thing ;/

[sweetness48]

Worst rendition I have EVER heard in my entire life (minus Chantal...she actually has talent). Nasal and flat. *shudder*

[RedStainedPoet]

ok. i LOVE avril lavigne but.... this just wasn't her song. :-/ I hate to say it because she really is an amazing singer but she's worrying too much about hitting the RIGHT notes rather than owning the notes. at least that's how it she sounds.

[JordanVanBiren]

Shes singing Alto....thats why it sounds like she has no emotion

[melanie8771]

Wow. Just, wow. Chantal has some emotion in her parts, Avril none.

[McSWTHART]

i dont rlly like either of them >.<

they sing horrible

[Yanetta17]

i agree. no emotion! >:(

[pinkglam1311]

ew?

[cbritton1876]

Ok in my opinion this is pretty lame, but let me play devils advocate for a sec, I've heard people say there's no emotion in this version, but I've also heard other people complain when someone ad-libs or put's in a jazz run, which in my opinion is pure emotion.So what do we want just the notes or emotion? Which is it? I say it the words that matter the most.

[Chaos8212]

Avril Sounds Like An Angel In This Song

[rabbot85]

avril suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucks.......

[EmilyJoudrey98]

@rabbot85 you suck!

[belljar76]

boooooooooooooooooo

[11NewAuthor2]

ouch !

[catherinemarina]

I don't particularly like this.

But I think her voice is an acquired taste.

Plus, this is a song about our Savior being born on a holy night, there isn't any emotion, or feeling. For this song, you need a mature voice, emotion, and you need to really show that you believe in the powerful words you're singing.

Around 2:45 I thought the harmony was quite interesting. Not bad, just interesting.

[1245mitch]

i dont see why everyone thinks this is so bad?? she's on key on pitch shes got the words right her voice sounds great whats wrong with it?

[lovelylilbear]

holy fuck that was bad

[marsanz9039]

has avril singing gone degraded? or was it just my ears?

[bigdukem69]

An easy way to see if someone can actually sing or not. Have them sing O Holy Night. Carrie Underwood Yes. Avril Lavigne No!!!

[VinnyVinnyVeechee]

this sounds horrible and monotone. this is offensive to the true meaning and spirit of Christmas.

[27gretch]

avril is the best version!!!!!!!!

[mcbradberry]

Well...the Bible does talk about make a joyful noise. The noise part is there. Joy is severely lacking.

[stebbi182]

autotune shit...

[jaspersgrl2143]

I love Avril but...this is not her style. No emotion

[MrUnemployable]

Ha.. I didn't like this at first... now, for some reason, this version really entertains me.. would like to hear her record it again & see how it would come out currently... I kinda like her tone & voice.. funny though.

[Ninaki13th]

a robot singing... she has no emotion when she sings

[defundthewar]

Dismal.

[n7zsd]

@Vengeance31 Yeah, it's bad! Hell I can sing it better than this, and that ain't sayin' much! A disgrace to a beautiful song. WTF was she thinking?

[Nanaimopoetics]

@n7zsd i know right and im not very good but im better than this

[gfbhowie]

sHE IS YOUNG THAT IS WHY SHE SOUNDS LIKE A CHILD, THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT!

[Andy2481]

not the best singer in the world.

[gfbhowie]

@Andy2481 cAN YOU SING?

[KylerShowTV]

Stop hating.. Avril is awesome!

[djsting]

@KylerShowTV I love avril, but i'm just not impressed with this version. To really sing this song, you need a fuller voice, something Avril doesn't really do. That's not to say she's not talented. Her style fits her music nicely. This song however, not so much.

[iloveinu2death]

@djsting agreed. ;)

[allyimaganative11]

horrible

[ntherewas1]

it gets better from 'a thrill of hope' well at least softer and gentler...

[phoenixfire8226]

celine is the best i've heard

[iloveinu2death]

@phoenixfire8226 Agreed! ^_*

[blaznnoob]

wow Jewel SMASHED this version

[TheRainbowMassacre]

....Avril officialy killed, slayed and ruined this song. 

[iloveinu2death]

@TheRainbowMassacre HAHAHAHAHAHAA!!! Any other verbs you want to throw in your comment there?? You cracked me up! LMAO!! XD

[TheRainbowMassacre]

@iloveinu2death I do. burried alive, slayed brutally without regret. I have some adjectives aswell. Feel like reading them?

[iloveinu2death]

@TheRainbowMassacre HAHAHHAHAHA. XD

[TheRainbowMassacre]

@iloveinu2death x'D

[iloveinu2death]

@TheRainbowMassacre I think that if Avril knew she did not have the voice for this song...she should have just not sang it or done a more rocker-esque version to it (who knows, it could have sounded pretty cool..lol). But ah well. *shrugs*

[TheRainbowMassacre]

@iloveinu2death ...If she didn't hear that she don't have the voice for this song... Then she needs to check her hearing.

[iloveinu2death]

@TheRainbowMassacre LOL. :D...maybe someone lied to her and said it sounded great. ^.^

[TheRainbowMassacre]

@iloveinu2death That person should go to Hell for telling such a big lie.

[iloveinu2death]

@TheRainbowMassacre HAHAHAHAHA. LOfuckingL. XD.

[TheRainbowMassacre]

@iloveinu2death We're owning the comment section thing, hee hee. Boyah.

[iloveinu2death]

@TheRainbowMassacre Hhahahahahahaha!!! I know!! Should we continue?? heh heh. :))

[TheRainbowMassacre]

@iloveinu2death Yes, yes we should.. Just because we're awesome.

[iloveinu2death]

@TheRainbowMassacre Ha ha..sorry..life got in the way...and I have not been on youtube for 2 freaking months!! ha ha..but anyway..yeah..let's continue. So Avril...should never sing this song...not even in her shower...right right??? ha ha. Avril can sing....just not all the time....she's better than Katy Perry and Miley Crus in singing..but worse than Pink and Kelly Clarkson and Hayley from Paramore for example. Avril is good...but just not that good. heh heh. :P

[TheRainbowMassacre]

@iloveinu2death Hayley is AMAZING and so is Pink and Clarkson. It seems that we both agree on this song; Avril can sing... But not this song. She doesn't suck... Except for in this song.

[lissylynn92]

@iloveinu2death katy perry is actually a pretty decent singer, i.e "Who Am I Living For". This song is def not for avril lavigne, but then she does "Keep Holding On" really well. I think it depends on the songs they sing. However, Miley Cyrus will never be good. lol (I agree completely with you there). I also agree, Pink, Kelly Clarkson, and Hayley are all really awesome- always. haha the song doesn't seem to matter for them, especially Pink and Kelly Clarkson.

just my two sense. :]

[iloveinu2death]

@lissylynn92 yeah: P!nk, Kelly, and Hayley = awesome. Miley and Katy= mediocre....their singing voices are not what gets them most of their fame...Miley's annoying behavior and disney get her famous. Katy's controversial song themes about kissing girls, saying someone is sooo gay, peacock (birds..right?/ ha ha..jkjk), and of course how could I miss it : her boobs = is where most of her fame comes from. As far as I am concerned. :D heh heh. Katy's good singing here and there = prob. luck. :P....

[lissylynn92]

@iloveinu2death I actually did just go back and listen to Katy Perry. She's good sometimes, but I think it's the beat and the energy of the music that makes it good. I usually just sing along over her, so I don't really hear her. haha "California Girls" is a really, fun (weird adj, but w/e) song, but it's more the energy that makes it good. Miley's just in with the disney kids who all end up being sell outs in the end...or else like Lindsey Lohan. : /

[lissylynn92]

@lissylynn92 *lindsay
