  • This is the best version of this song!

  • remember this version from the 90's. Berry's is voice is amazing!

  • Mamachelsea28 thank you for your very kind response! John berry is awesome!

  • FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON! (JOHN 3:16) Beautiful, the true meaning of Christmas! John may the good Lord continue to bless you. I love your version best, because it is Holy Spirit led. BEAUTIFUL!!!

  • Harvey, you are an idiot.

  • This is and always will be my favorite O Holy Night performer! However David Phelps is directly next to him! Please everyone you must check it out! Life changing lol

  • this is the best version of this song i have ever heard. simply amazing!!

  • Carrie Underwood!

  • Wow! John berry is fantastic and I also understand he has a saving faith in Jesus! If you know the lord this version knocks you to your knees! Thank you lord for your finished, completed work of salvation and thank you for using mr berry for your glory! 5 stars!!!

  • @Jawbreaker424 That was So very well put! :)

  • This was, is, and always will be the finest male version of this song ever recorded. Semper Fi.

  • try listening to john sing this acapello,,,,, its truly amazing, who else can pull that off..

  • My favorite version of my favorite Christmas hymn! Thank you!

  • has not been sung better then this

  • I LOVE this song...have always considered it one of my personal favorites....but the man has FAKE EYELASHES! Look at 3:44 and tell me you see different! THAT turns me OFF on the performer...Try searching David Phelps (with Lyrics)...it'll make you cry, send chills...it's so dramatic...

  • @wdharvey1 Nope - they are not fake. They are real - I have seen them in person. Men often have long lush lashes that women would kill to have.

  • @TheBlondePhoenix I'm not talking about the length...I'm talking about the "boxiness"...there is a clear line of "thickness" on the left and right of each eye during the close-up, when his eyes are looking downward...I'm just saying what I see and observe...the line is too obvious.

  • @TheBlondePhoenix Of course his are real :-) but I admit, I wore fake lashes once on a date. I thought it was cute...until one of the fell into my linguine I almost ate it. definately not cute.

    Peace

  • @joeygsmom Thanks for your honesty and candor in your response. I was really just making an observation, because, for close-ups like that, it's obvious they are "squared" at certain points...just take a closer look. I'm not trying to stir up an ant-hill here...just having a laugh...BTW: his verison is good, but I like David Phelps better...THANKS! Hope you had a happy holiday!

  • @wdharvey1 Youre hearing the best version of this song ever recorded, and all you can say is the man has fake lashes?

    Im telling you different...a) they are NOT fake --they are blond. and b) even if he was spectacularly decked out like Elton John and Liberace combined, so what? He has a fantastic voice. He seems genuine. Can we all just not criticise for once? Peace.

  • @joeygsmom Actually, I don't think this is the best version of the song..I think David Phelps does a better job. The point about the eyelashes were that they were SQUARE, which has nothing to do with them being blonde. And, what does Elton John or Liberace have to do with make-up for a video? If he does have fake eyelashes, It's obvious to me, even if it is for the camera's sake. I was simply ASKING and making an OBSERVATION, not looking for a smart-assed remark.;

  • my favorite version of my favorite Christmas song. I have always loved his voice. This makes me cry every time I hear it. He's jsut amazing.

  • I've had the pleasure of meeting John on several occasions at our local high school when he would come and sing the National Anthem for our season opener...John you're a gentleman and NO ONE could do this song better!

  • This brings goosebumps every time I hear it. No one does this song as well as John Berry!

  • My heart is so full of love everytime I hear this song by John Berry

    no one absolutely noone comes close, he's sings this song the way I think

    heaven would've wanted it to be sung. Very heartfelt!!!!

  • Josh Groban also does a fantastic version but his voice is deep and soulful while John Berry's is higher and more angelic...in my opinion it's impossible to pick which is better

  • @muziklover7266 Very good point- I just heard Josh Groban's baritone version of O Holy Night,loved it- but had to go back and hear John Berry's wonderful version.Very hard to choose which is better- they're both wonderful but different. Both men do justice to this lovely song so well.Happy Holidays to you and yours!

  • @OhSusannah63 Thank you very much. Merry Christmas to you as well.

  • This man is gorgeous from head to foot and his version of this song is the best I've ever heard.

    Too bad he dropped out of the music business.

  • product of Belmont University...good job my friend

  • Beautiful!

  • Exquisite.

  • Beautiful. No one sings it like John Berry. I have to close my eyes every time I listen to it because its so beautiful

  • Christmas is not complete till John Berry sings this song! It gives me the chills, soooo beautiful and yes he should be the only one to sing this song. No one else does it justice...

    Merry Christmas all !!

  • BEAUTIFUL VOICE.

  • oh i so agree with above. John Berry will always do this song the best. It just sends shivers down my spine when I here him sing this....

  • i have always loved this song so much at the age of 10 during a school pagent i messed up on the high note the principle was so mad i had to stand on the stage while 900 kids up to 12th grade while the princ said i had to be shunned for 2 wks, i never got over it but i sang this song every day to get it right then i heard john berrys version sang it in alto, turns out i am alto, and i am good, best christmas in 40 yrs i did it merry christmas raine

  • How can u dislike this???

  • John Berry seems to make this song even more beautiful than it already is.

    OUTSTANDING!!!!!!

  • The greatest voice to ever grace this beautiful song! 

  • I love hos voice, it's just a shame the music is so overpowering, I would love to hear a simpler arrangement that puts his voice in the centre. Came across this song in a swedish version by a very talented singer called Tommy Korberg that still remains my favorite for it's deep solemness.

  • this is the only one i listen to for o holy night

  • This is most absolute favorite Christmas song, what a voice, gives me shivers everytime I hear it!!!! Thank you John Berry!!!!

  • this song reminds me of my grandfather who used to sing this song every christmas. may his memory never be forgotten

  • I have ALWAYS believed this to be the VERY best version of this song since I first heard it years ago. The voice of an angel!

  • He sings this song like he really believes what he is singing. Some Christmas songs are designed for one voice. Bing Crosby to White Christmas, or Nat King Cole to the Christmas Song, God gave John Berry a voice with this song in mind.....

  • Wonderful production, no words for Mr. Berry. Thank you Lord for sharing him. The very definition of "awesome".

  • I love his version, I wish he still sang he has a wonderful voice

  • WOW!!!! He makes me tear up everytime I hear it.

  • @katcabrera77 I also have tears when I hear this ..it is AWESOME BEAUTIFUL !! 

  • This is THE definitive version. Thank you John Berry for doing this song such beautiful justice!

  • john has the best version

  • This is by far the best version of "O Holy Night" I have ever heard. John's voice is such a God given talent, and gives this song the justice it deserves. If you don't feel anything after hearing him sing, there's something wrong with you.

  • i am finally able to do you tube again/forgot password:( anyways, this song by john is absolutely the best ever, john being a country artist is awesome also,,check out his other songs....... there is no one that sings this like he does, heart and soul, and christmas spirit:) merry christmas everyone

  • Easily the best version, Ive heard a lot of good ones but this seems so effortless! I dont listen to much country but Id check out any cd this man recorded based on this.

    Who could possibly dislike it...King Herod?

  • a perfectly magnificent voice for a glorious Christmas song

  • No one sings this song like John Berry ! Merry Christmas !

  • I LOVE this song by Donny Osmond, Marie Osmond, Kenny Rogers and of course, John Berry!! They all do this song so beautifully!! I can't decide which one is better, even though Donny Osmond is my #1 favorite singer!! Listen to all of them and you decide!!

  • I saw John perform this live here in metro Atlanta at Town Center Mall...part of a Toys-for-Tots event. It was the most amazing gathering and performance! When he sang this song you could have heard a pin drop...we truly "had church" right then and there! I will never, ever forget that wonderful experience!

  • That was Amazing!

    Thank you John Berry.

  • Bought this CD when it first came out several years ago. Greatest version, bar none, of Oh Holy Night. I wish all country stations and others would play this version.

  • @Dickneeds i just yesterday got the cd finally,,, now i can enjoy anytime.

  • john lived in the neighborhood beside me and he came trick or treating with his kids and dog...my dog about ate his...and all i could do was think of this song and would he forgive...lol

  • someday i wanna feel the love of a family again.be a dad someday

  • I think this is the most Beautiful and Meaningful Version of this Blessed song. Other singers do a lovely job with the song, but John Berry adds "something special" to it.

  • still gives me goosebumps after all these years

  • so beautiful, i actually cried..

  • Amazing..Give's me chill's.....

  • For anyone getting too tied up with commercialism at this time of year, give this a listen. Will change your entire outlook on life. Amazing Mr. Berry, simply amazing. God bless. Merry Christmas to all!!

  • Amazing Mr. Berry.

  • I remember in 1995 just before my son was born when this video came out , i was actually on my knees crying , and trying to keep up with him in singing it .he truely does a good job at this song

  • I have heard MANY versions of O Holy Night, but NONE of them compares John Berry's version..... he NAILED it!!

  • this is x-mas baby.

  • the ONLY song that will make me cry..next to Amazing Grace with bagpipes.

  • I have had this recording for about 15 yrs. I' cannot get enough of it. And I'm Jewish....

  • Really amazing. John poured his heart into this song. Happy to know there are those who still care about the Christmas message and it is here for us the whole year round. God Bless you.

  • greatest Cristmas song ever written, and no singer could do it more justice. This is absolutely my favorite Cristmas song and recording ever performed.

    You are awesome John Berry, glad you and this song got together.

  • @golfadict11 Well said.

  • How can anyone dislike this?!?

  • I completely agree with loyd2828. My fav christmas song. And John Berry is amazing. He sounds so ethereal singing this song about our Savior.

  • This has always been my favorite christmas song, hearing him sing it just gives me chills and moves me to tears. ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!

  • My Fav and he nails it...

  • What a way to wake up in the morning!

  • Merry Christmas everyone-- Now it is Christmas -- I love his rendition of this classic

  • Now Christmas season can begin. I've heard my song. :) Nobody does it as well as John Berry.

  • I have never heard this song done better... amazing voice

  • Happy Birthday! I"ll put a tree in my house, and think about you for inspiring a tree in my house. Thanks so much for every gift, including John Berry. And this song...

  • Prettiest version ever. Prettiest song ever. Merry Blessed Christmas Everyone.

  • Best version of this song ever done by any one from any genre!!

  • @barbnearl Besides this version, I also like Luciano Pavarotti's version.

  • My opinion is the same. I met John at the CMA Music Festival and said, "I just love your version of O Holy Night. I like your regular music as well, but you nailed that song." John thanked me for the compliment and said it was always one of his favorite songs.

  • Perfection!!!

  • John does this song The Best!!! Would not be Christmas in the South without him!! And he walks the walk.. lots of love to John, Robin and family!!

  • the classic christmas carol done beautifully

  • this is my absolute favorite version of this song, everytime i hear it, it gives me chills.

  • Only John Berry can give this song justice!

  • One of the greatest songs of all time!!!!!! Christmas or not!!!!

  • This is my favorite Christmas song. John Berry sings it better than anyone else.

  • God bless you for this beautiful version.

  • No one sings this like John Berry!

  • The best version of O Holy Night by far

  • It's like God and Jesus got together and said lets have this man who we have given this beautiful voice and have him sing this beautiful song.

  • best version of this song...EVER

  • the most amazing voice i have ever heard. i will always love him.

  • I hope I get to see John in concert someday. I didnt even know he was still singing but am thrilled to learn he is. This is by far my favorite version of this wonderful song!!!

  • Getting to see John tomorrow night for his 2011 Christmas tour in Jeffersonville, IN. Can't wait. This will be the second time we've seen his Christmas concert and the 5th or 6th time we've seen him total.

  • John Berry "owns" O Holy Night !!! Never get tired of listening.

  • This is, hands down, the best version of this song ever. John's voice is angelic and brings tears to your eyes. Absolutely wonderful.

  • This is the best and strongest voice I have heard sing this song. John you are the best.

  • My favorite version of this song. :)

  • My oldest brother was by no means a religious man. A few years ago he was riding with me doing some Christmas shopping. John Berry's version of O Holy Night came on and I cranked it up. When it was done he smiled at me and announced that Christinity was the greatest religion on Earth (!). I asked why, and he said, "Because nobody else has music like that!" I miss him, and think of him whenever I hear this.

  • @ima45dv8 that's a really great memory, thanks for sharing .I'm by no means a christian either ,but john berry's doing this song just speaks to me

  • i just dont think that anyone can top this version!

  • @GRAMCRACKER0413 / I like this version but Michael Crawford owns this song. Just sayin.

  • @GRAMCRACKER0413 .I have always said the same thing .no one can do it better than john berry

  • @GRAMCRACKER0413 -i agree

  • that's how it should sound!

  • By far the best rendition of O Holy Night around, no one can sing this song like John Berry.

  • This is by far My Favorite from John Berry. It brings chills to your spine. Turn it up and enjoy.

  • John Berry's rendition of O Holy Night always brings me chills. And to think this song was written by an atheist and was not allowed to be played in Catholic churches for centuries because of it.

  • the note he hits at 4:52 I can't take it. It's amazing.

  • The absolute GREATEST version of this song EVER!!

  • amazing song. amazing singer.. no one could have sang this song any better than john berry.. makes me cry every time i hear it, its soo beautiful!

  • As we embark on yet another Christmas season, may you all be blessed, with love, you and happiness and the presence of the Lord.

    I cannot watch this song without crying and thinking of my Mother whom passed in 1997, Thank you for posting.

  • Beautifully done! Love this version!!!

  • The most beautiful christmas song I've ever heard, and magnificently sung by John Berry. Thank you for posting. I cannot believe only 6 thousand views.

  • PERFECTO :D

  • Clearly, John Berry has whollistically set himself aside in this rendition and allowed his voice as the chosen vessel with which to exemplify it - no less than "Divinely Inspired" perfection.

  • Best version I have ever heard.

  • OMG!!....John Berry has an AMAZING voice to this song...I love it!!

  • Greco I sure agree with you! He does it better than anyone I've ever heard sing it!

  • OMGosh John, that truly gave me Chills !!!! Thank You SOOOOO Much !!!

  • listen to his "O Holy Night" Christmas album every holiday season. one of my favs for the holidays.

  • The first time I heard this , I too was driving, like Ronbo710. The DJ led into the song saying he did not know John Berry had a voice like this . I was totally stunned . I also pulled over and cried. And every year, at Christmas, I listen for this song as I'm driving to and from work. No one does thiss better than John Berry. When you hear this, you know what Christmas is all about. John, you are truly awesome!

  • john u have the most beautiful voice, i agree it was meant for you to sing this!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i just wonder though have you and celione thought abought getting together siging, what an amazing duo it would be, no-one could touch yall, ever, 2 amazing voices, that would be awesome, more than that just almost a miracle, u 2 are amazing, and my favorites!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!

  • so amazing.

  • God meant for John to sing this song noone does it better!

  • Christ finally came for the first time, just like God said He would and as the Prophets have foretold. He came to save the entire world before the final hour. The Kingdom of God is at hand!

  • The first time I heard John do this song I was driving. I had to pull off the road and cry. NEVER has a song done this to me. Stunning ...

  • The best version by far of this song Oh Holy Night. What a magnificent voice John Berry has. I await this song as each Christmas approaches. RIP Mom, as this was her favourtie song.

  • John has the voice for classical, not country. He's just great.

  • Certainly this compares to the great Caruso.

  • Best version of this song imo. Amazing job John.
