There was a comment further down asking why would david be singing this song and not a christmas carol well i can say that this song was written about a person helping another person out and isnt that wat christmas and the salvos is all about

Since you have probably never heard him sing live, (apart from generally second-rate youtube videos) you're not really in a position to know how he sounds today, unlike the thousands who flock to his concerts and other live performances. Those in the know, guarantee that he is singing better than ever before in his more than 2 decade career.

Far too much flat singing.

Vocally not his best performance but he is still a great singer.

no one but josh groban should be allowed to sing this song.

Thanks for that. I got the feeling when he started the song and further on, that he wasn't well. I've watched several more videos this afternoon and loved most, particularly Un'aura amorosa from Cosi fan tutte - beautiful. I have it playing right now.

Absolutely wonderful like everything David does. Is he the man or is he the man?

I loved this performance - along with all of his. David Hobson is one of Australia's most talented singers and he does a great job of anything and everything he does, over a range of genres as shown by his hugely successful album The Promise and his triumphant performances on It Takes Two.
This clip does however make me wonder why he is singing You Raise Me Up (although it is undoubtedly a great song)instead of a christmas carol at Carols In The Domain?

I don't know about others and their opinions on David's singing, but I thought his version was great.
David, himself, would be disappointed in this performance.

David was quite ill in the weeks before this performance, so it's true that he was not at his absolute best vocally. Nonetheless, watching David perform at Carols each year brings me and my family immense joy.
He is THE MAN!
