  • Live her version

  • love this osng it is sooo great

  • marna podruba U2

  • It's a great great song (another classic by Ellie Greenwich) and she does it well but Darlene owns it like no other.

  • "spirit" that's all that is felt in this song.. that's why she is so amazing

  • 27 people dont want their loved one to come home

  • Love it-but the original is still the BEST.

  • She is talented but U2 did it better

  • I actually like Mariah's and U2's versions better than the original. Both are superb!

  • Josh Ramsay - Baby please come home.

    Nuff said'

  • MARIAH CAREY is the best singer in everything , Merry Christmas to u Mariah ,, u will always be the best

  • Most vocalists very pretty, vibration heals, singing...

    Sing more to rid disease.. It is actually a fact.

    =)

    Pass it on..

  • Merry Christmas!

    YULETIDE PRAISE

  • Love this song, check out some of my covers and let me know what you think! Merry Christmas!!! :)

  • I love Mariah's voice.. she's an Angel, but I can't help but compare to Darlene's "right out of the box" Darlene kills it (in a good way).. two beautiful singers singing a great Christmas song!

  • cant touch darlene love

  • Darlene Love! Hands down the best !!

  • Good one.. Second only to Darlene Love. Nice. Really nice.

  • josh ramsays version is better than anyones !

  • U2 version is 200000000000000000000x better

  • Mariah doesn't have PHil Spector twiddling the knobs. Perhaps a more flambuoyant and polished voice, but it hasn't got THAT SOUND

  • @highpathresident yes its called soul.

  • i like Leighton Meester's better :)

  • @coltonash Such a shame that people don't understand the difference between a vocalist and a studio produced,altered electronic voice.

  • @brunette6 I do understand the difference. It doesn't matter if it is a vocalist or studio produced. What matters is the outcome. In the end whatever sounds better a person will like more.

  • @brunette6 fuck you you don't know music

  • @coltonash Still angry about my opinion? Get a life. Also, please take some singing lessons, you're flat. No range.

  • I love this!! I think i like it more than All I Want Is Christmas Is You

  • Mariah's good but she just doesn't have the depth or the extra whatever it is on this song that Darlene Love has.

  • She' Ah-Mazinq

  • @SarahShoutNever That's your opinion, so smd

  • DARLENE LOVE OWNS THIS SONG. BUT MARIAH OWNS SEVERAL OTHER XMAS SONGS. EVEN SONGS SONGS SHE WROTE!!! OH YEA TALK TO ME WHEN DARLENE CAN HIT 2;04 #DEAD

  • good try Mariah but no cigar...clearly Darlene is better..sorry!

  • Comment removed

  • Mariah sounds good but DARLENE LOVE will ALWAYS own this song!!!!!

  • Now it's Christmas. x

  • i love mariah, but i have to admit, my version is alot better

  • @MatthewEdwardHall I hate to break it to you Mathew, but your version sucks ass.

  • Maria sound good but she's no Darleen Love!

  • show her left side!

  • Darlene's voice is nowhere near as round and whole in the upper register like Mariah's is..In fact she sings over multi syllables while Darlene struggled to simply belt into the high register.

  • christmas and mariah just go together like milk and cookies

  • My favorite cover of this song ever! Go Mariah!

  • @imreallyjin

    I mean thats cool and all. Its interesting because the reception they have received on this tour has been amazing. People everywhere seem to love them. Nothing to do however with what I said. Still way to over produced.

  • Good job Mariah, but Darlene Love rules and always will:):)

  • Not even Mariah can compare to Darlene Love singing this song. But she is a very close second ;)

  • @Gettinbuzz MC's version is Good but I wouldn't put her second

  • @priceshagger Like I said, Darlene Love rules this song and even Mariah can't compete. But I can honestly say I've only ever her Darlene and MC sing this. That's why I said MC is second.

  • @Gettinbuzz There are quite a few artists who have covered it and the U2 cover is pretty good, but there is no Sax on their version, and I think the Sax is one thing that contributes to the song overall. There's no doubting MC's vocal capability, and I'm no fan of hers, but I beleive in credit where it's due

  • very nice, upbeat christmas song with good mood

    very much like the great song All I Want For Christmas Is You

  • U2 sucks

  • @TaintedLolita really i liked his alot lol

  • not as good as u2s. Way too overproduced.

  • @tzenker11

    the 2nd concert i've been to was U2 in las vegas, shortly after their new album (atomic ..something).

    BONO SUCKED, but the best of the crew is pretty awesome.

  • Mariah jdid Darlene Love justice this cover way way beetter than U2's

  • Mariah's version >>>>>>

  • :'''''''''''') beautiful

  • No one does it like Mariah!!!!

  • @b5559877 Charlene and U2 did better. but ill agree with all i want for christmas beign one of the best christmas songs

  • @b5559877 A puny

    imitation. Darlene rules.

  • @mandryka2007 i agree.

  • @b5559877 others have done it better

  • @b5559877 this is horrible compared to the U2 version.... check it out you'll see what i mean

  • @GabeU2Fan: Gabe,I Like U2's ,and Mariah's version also . But for me nothing says Chirstmas like Darlene Loves backed by the "Wall of Sound) original. I thank you for your opionon and I respect it.We all have different taste in music and that is what makes each of us so passionate about our choices. Thanks,32 Lakester.

  • Many try, but none can hold up to the original.

    Darlene Love for the win.

  • @two4youinswva

    So very true!! This song will ALWAYS belong to Darlene Love! The greatest Christmas song, ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Darlene Love did this song first, right?

  • Second only to Darlene Love.

  • @32lakester YEP! That's Darlene's SONG!!! Congratulations on her induction to the Rock Hall OF Fame.

  • @32lakester not just to darlene love

  • @32lakester There both behind U2 performing this song... way better, check it out. Mariah can't hang with Bono

  • U2 done this way better!! Merry Christmas!

  • so close to christmas! about a moth away, but it seams like forever!

  • BUZZZINNNNNNNNNNNNNN, CANT WAIT FOR CHRISTMAS AFTER LISTENING TO THIS SONGGGGGGGG

  • i can't wait for christmas! it's nov 8th, so close but yet so far away!

  • Can't wait for Christmas! :D

  • Great song...also covered greatly by U2 in the 80's. love them both! Awesome!

  • Everytime after Thanksgiving, when Christmas is close, I look for her Christmas CD and play it over and over again!! But I can't seem to find it this year :( Thank God for the internet :)

  • Catchy tune! This is a holiday stanard.

  • I love this! and her new holiday song, "Oh Santa" on iTunes now

  • Can't wait for Christmas!

  • this is my favorite christmas song! i love christmas so much! i sing it even in the summer! this really puts you in the christmas sperit!

  • i officaly have badluck, but i don't care because i'm in the christmas mood! :D

  • original definatly better, no disrespect to carey though

  • she is hotter as a bruenette great song though

  • whichever song she sings is transformed from goodness to total greatness. . MAriah forever, till the end of time!!

  • Wanne smell her...

  • She does a great cover of Darlene Loves version... but its just a cover, not original

  • I loe this song! and the original! :)

  • nothing better than listening to christmas songs in summer =)

  • @valentines34x agreed. thats totally what im doing right now....and i thought i ws the only one(:

  • BEST VERSION

  • I really do love this woman!!

  • I love this song, and i love this version. But, sadly, i must admit: i prefer the original Darlene Love version just because i remember it from Gremlins. xD

    Plus, i like only '50s-'80s songs (i am only 15 years old, so im weird xD).

    I also love those black and white photos of Mariah in this vid a lot.

    =D

  • i love this!

  • U2 s version is stellar!!! Even better than the original, take a listen!

  • I absolutely love this song! I don't care who it's by I still love it!!

  • I totally agree with you!

  • I love Darlene's version and this one... clearly to you people NO ONE should ever cover it... so why bother watching a cover?

  • I think this version is cute. And your comment is valid. But WHY would any artist invite being compared to Darlene Love?

  • Mariah simply loves this song, really loves it, and her's is a great vocal interpretation. Covering a song shouldn't automatically mean it get's judged against the original, to be fair Darlene didn't write the song so it's not exclusively hers. The only problem starts when people decide they must compare, like somehow a cover detracts fromt the original (and that does a dissservice to the original as well as the cover) instead of taking them on there own terms.

  • @littlegreenbag exactly! very well said comment. Sadly, people compare without even thinking of that. :(

  • Mariah didn't cover this thinking 'I'm gonna beat Darlene' so why do people have to look at it like that, she simply wanted to sing a song she loved, in her way, for her album.

  • @iowa61 Way better than Darlene's!

  • @200918JR It's a cute version. I like it. But sorry. Mariah is not the singer Darlene is... no shame in that BTW...

  • @littlegreenbag I agree with you completely!

  • AMAZING

  • my fave mriah xmas song!! too bad she cant hit these notes like this anymore.

  • yes this song is great... I love it... I think she sing this song good... but not as before...

  • mariah best

  • no one could copy Darleen Love version

  • merry christmas from the streets of norh Italy......

  • I love the Leighton Meester version

  • it's not bad, but i wish i could hwar more her n less auto tune

  • its good but not better then u2 theirs as raw and just whooo hers is fatastic i love both! but i think u2 is better

  • I'm sorry. Did I say "pathetic dwarfs?" I meant to say talentless, boring, self absorbed, self important losers...

  • theres always secret darlene lovers hanging in the wing, ready to punch on you, if you so much as say this version is better...lol please

  • A boy at my school sang this song at the holiday assembly. It was amazing. It was slower, and sadder though.

  • I enjoyed it more then the original. It was great.

  • She's the christmas songs queen!

  • Hardly, there are a great many more that whoops the arse of wailing and screaming Mariah Carey

  • I actually love all the versions- Darlene's is by far the best, but I am happy whenever I hear any of them - DL's, Mariah's, and U2's

  • agreed with ts4them :)

  • she rocks !!! best version !!! better than U2 or darlene love...

  • @sliv812 I think it add's well to her excellent christmas album, it may not be the best cut, but still I enjoy it

  • Nice version but doesn't compare to Darlene Love.

  • mariah has the best xmas songs of all time

    she is the queen

  • yo i would totally bang the f*ck out of mariah in that red suit...can i get a what what?

  • I hear ya.

  • give me U2!!!!!!

  • Then don't listen to her if you already know that she does all the vocal embellishment.

  • a mia cugina non gliene frega niente del natale.... hahahha... non gliene mai fregato niente perchè non l'ha mai provato

    Non le importa ne di questo ne di quello, peggio per lei, povera...

    W le vacanze, la vita e l'Amoreee

    Buon natale

    ha! oh! il suo oroscopo era proprio azzezzato ! buon natale e buon circo .

  • Perfect ...;)

  • Good but no where near perfect. There is only one who can belt this song out, and it really needs belting out, that's the fantastic Darlene Love.

  • @priceshagger Carey's belts have more resonance than darlene's so what are you saying ?

  • I don't think Darlene comes even close to Mariah's Shoe! lol....Mariah has the best Christmas Album!

  • Mariah is very good. But Darlene Love is the greatest! See Darlene Love live in concert ...Dec 13 BB Kings Times Square New York City NY. Dec 11 Robert Parilla Pac Montgomery College Rockville MD (with Ronnie Spector). Dec 17 Count Basie Theatre Red Bank NJ (with Ronnie Spector). Dec 20 Bergen Pac Englewood NJ(with Steven Van Zandt, Leslie Gore & Paul Shaffer). Dec 23 The Late Show with David Lettermen CBS TV singing the original Christmas Baby Please Come Home. Happy Holidays.

  • you're right- i love Mariah- But Darlene is AMAZING!! My father loves this song sooo much!!

  • mariah rox

  • I LOVE this song .. every year!

  • OK its a reasonable effort...but it doesn't even come close to Darlene Love's version...a definite lack of soul in this version.

    cue...the haters! lol

  • Well, often the original is the best. Still, I have to say this one is not butchered. My beef with the Darlene Love version is how poor the recording is (even for 1962). Love to watch her sing it on David Letermann every year.

  • Yeah but it's not really fair to call it the Darlene Love version cuz its really the Phil Spector version. Its poorly recorded cuz its cluttered with all the superflous shit he liked to put in his recordings..."wall fo sound" ya know?

  • I LOVE YOU MARIAH! sorry :(

  • i miss when she was just young and adorable and sang a bunch of catchy pop songs that wernt terrible and over produced.

  • listen to her singing this song at the grammy's 2008

  • You got to realize that it wouldn't even sound right to have 90's music in 2000-2009. The industry changes all the time and you've got to move with it. And thats what she's doing.

  • yes but please understand. as a musician, i dont care for the direction of pop music these days. theres no emphasis on music or a band or on songwriting. its just pitch correction laid over synthesized beats. im not gonna start a music debate on this person's video. i just wanted to clarify my point.

  • Nobody is trying to debate or argue your getting offensive. I was stating my opinion because everybody keeps saying they want the 90's Mariah well its 2009 and she says herself that she try's new things.

  • no of course. noone can keep putting out the same album year after year. artists and musicians need to change and grow, or adapt to whats selling. im a musician, i well understand that haha

  • i know eh i love hip hop these days mainstream is where its at are you famous? probably not cause musicians like gaga are

  • i have no problem with hip hop of any era. i just dont like some pop music these days. BUT again as i said before... im not going to get into a debate over music on this person's youtube video.

  • i hear ya and that was a test most people go balls when they hear some shit like that but i respect all music

  • nah haha i gotta better things to do with my time then argue on youtube lol

  • i have to do a dance for this...lol

  • thks for the lyrics

  • She sounds good. But I think she can give Darlene Love a run for her money
