GUYS IT'S CHRISTMAS STOP COMPLAINING ABOUT HOW THE SONG WAS WRITTEN. What's important is the meaning behind the song. If you don't like it, fine. If you like it, great. Now stop your anonymous YouTube bitching for ONE WEEK and try to make somebody else's day a little brighter, instead of bringing them down. Ok? Ok.
... I feel like this song was designed to plug his other songs. He just adds his other songs into this to create a christmas song. He must have been drunk when he wrote this. Not his best work at all. And this is coming from a fan.
this....song....sucked... my moms like OH i love him *after video* WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT!!!! in other words saying very merry cherry cheryy IS NOT A GOOD LINE its something a 1st grader righting a xmas poem would say
I think this song is stupid. Have a cherry christmas! That's dumb lol... He put all his old songs into this one. Holly holy Christmas! What?! Holly holy? Rocky rolly?
I remember his Christmas Concert in Charlotte, NC, and he stated he was going to be on the "outs" with his grandmother, (Jewish of course), He is my all time favorite, his appeal is for not only adults, but my children grew up on him as I did
@geoffmeugens - wake up on the wrong side of the bed hu? Get over it, Have a Very Cherry Cherry Christmas, Mr. Scrooge! Maybe some Crunchy Granola would help!
Neil did not fall flat on this tune at all. It was clever and catchy. We have a radio station in my area that played Christmas music 24/7 from Thanksgiving till December 26th. That song was one of the most requested. He did a hell of a job with it. Give him credit where credit is due. It's better than other crap that is out there. Mariah Carey with Oh Santa. OH PLEASE! It sucks and does not put you in the holiday mood.
While I love Neil Diamond's voice, he fell flat on this one, was too ballad ladened. One side of the coin is Mariah Carey with Oh Santa too rappy to hear her at all,
on other side is Neil excuse me while I yawn! What about these two getting together to balance each other out? Neil could bring out the real Mariah, she could have him step up his game, he did in favorites over the years!
Couldn't sing along to this song. Real downer for Neil almost everything he's sang has been cheerful & peppy!
I think it was just fabulous;--a wonderful Christmas world of make believe and isn't that's what Santa Claus & Christmas are all about--a really well made tribute to the season...I love Neil Diamond--he Rocks
I love Neil Diamond so very, very much....but I just can't take him seriously during this song. I heard it first on the radio last year, and was laughing so hard I actually had to pull into the nearest parking lot until I could contain myself. I decided this year to find it on youtube, and it's even more hilarious. The adoring children, the digital snowflakes, the cheesy song. It's all just too much...but I can't stop listening!
I just loveee this videoo... He has an amazing the voice... and this song just makes me really get the christmas peaceful feeling :) ... sounds really fun so at this time i'd like to wish you and all of youtube a Very Merry Cherry Cherry, Holly Holy Christmas :D... and a bright an prosperous new year
LOL...this is the gayest song ever! LMAO when the local radio station poked fun at it last December. He's so seriously plugging all of his hit songs! It would have been a really pretty song if it wasn't a commercial!
@akiddlydivy2 dude. I dont love the song either, although I like it, but hes obviously doing this not to sell his songs but to reference them. Its a song made specifically for die hard Diamond fans and we appreciate the little "Sung Song Blue" "Holly Holy" shots.
Define "jew". He obviously has no problem with promoting Christianity so is that okay with Judaism. I am an atheist and I love his music (not so much this song). I really don't care that he promotes Christianity. I think it's awesome that he has so little faith in his religion.
define Jew. go see a rabbi. stop being so Jewish. your born, you work, then you die, great life we have on earth. sometimes I think this is hell if you think bout it. 1/3 sleeping 1/3 working/ 20% doing what needs to be done to live and 10 to 14% entertainment. so I ask you. Is this life really fun for every one. and we in the USA so we are lucky . there are people around the world that have nothing and spend 100% of time just to find food and water. Take your jewish bullshit and go to israel
Are you Jewish by tradition or faith? Your profanity on my page leads me to accept the former. I am an atheist by the way. All lower case letters, too.
I like Neil Diamond fine and dandy. He has some hits and that's fine, but this might be, by far the worst christmas song ever written. I don't know what any of it means. The problem with all of you single ladies who love Neil Diamond is that he can't do anything wrong. Go watch Saving Silverman and you will understand what you are like. I'm not mean and i love Christmas. But this song does not deserve any air time and this song alone is enough to keep him out of the hall of fame. What the hell?
not sure I understand you. This is a great song....accept it. He cleverly puts some titles to past songs in it....I don't understand your need to bring people down on X-mas either. I hope you enjoy surfing youtube so you can rip innocent people who are just enjoying a video or two. to that I say, "What the hell?"
@jsf525 Forget it being a Christmas song, this is one of the worst SONGS ever written. Also, I'm forwarding your comment to the FBI so they know where to start the search for Neil Diamond's body when he goes missing. Just promise me thing, don't violate the man's corpse too badly.
@jsf525 hahaha I wasn't even going to reply again, but since you "said" you blocked me, it probably means you didn't and you're just hoping I won't reply again, so here I am to tell you how lame you are, lame-o. And if you reply to this, I won't even look at the message in my inbox. I can act like a bigger baby than you can.
You Make Me Feel Like Christmas all over again with this beautiful new song. Loved you on Christmas in Washington. I cannot stop playing this song, will listen to it all year long......
Has anyone been able to get through this video without it stopping every couple of seconds? The red line has gone all the way to the end, making me think it has fully loaded, but it keeps stopping. I have a DSL connection, if that matters.
Neil has already written one of my favorite Christmas songs, You Make It Feel Like Christmas -- and now this! The song is a real gift to his fans, and it's bound to become a holiday favorite. Thanks, Neil, and Happy Holidays to all!
Thank you Neil for this beautiful Christmas card. All of your true fans will be reminded of those special moments of your concerts included. Have a great New Year. Love ya, Neil
I have listened to this all day on XM Radio and loved it. Just came home to share it with my kids. Peace, love and the Spirit of CHRISTmas can be felt in this lovely song.
He is acting soft in this video because he is performing for Kids.
What is wrong with you people calling this a gay song.

try reading the words if you need to understand the story.
No Body is better then Neil.
I am a guy too. I don't need to be a lady to love this man.
Fame never went to his head like most super stars.
he writes his music and sings it but most important if you hear him on the radio you always know he voice.
he has a voice that's a gift and he shares it with the world.
If you don't like this song then go away.
I don't like all his songs but he can sing the phone book to make me smile.
