Listen to Celine sing it and do it exactly like she does.
"Noah, someday we'll talk again. But there's things we'll never say. That sorrow deep inside you. It inside me, too. And it never go away. You be okay. You'll learn how to lose things..."

Or Martina McBride.
"The stage is where I live and come alive and act out all the things that go on in my life. It's not just what I do for a living, it's my shrink and my love affair. No one in my life has ever or ever will kiss me on the mouth like this lover called my relationship with my performance."

Listen to Josh Groban's version.

I'm singing "Go tell it on the mountain" at my 11:00 service.
David walked into the valley
With a stone clutched in his hand
He was only a boy
But he knew someone must take a stand
There will always be a valley
Always mountains one must scale
There will always be perilous waters
Which someone must sail

Amen Matt_G..its the definitive performance of the song. Done in true "Elphaba" (non screaming) style. Her "O Come All Ye Faithful" rocks my world too.
"Y'all have a GRAND day now"

I don't think a queer would want Cheno in their 'backround'
They'd probably go more for a Chad (Kimball?)

I know I'm too late, but perhaps all carols should be sung with the Idina Menzel "oh AA AA AAAAAAAAA" at the end of them. I know I can't type pitches here, but I would be shocked if 90% of you don't understand what I'm talking about.

I think one should strive to match Sandy Patti's quite stunning rendition. Somewhat different than Celine's but very good.

You shouldn't try to sing it like anyone else but yourself. I was a last-minute sub on this song last night (I did have a few hours notice). The choir director accomapnied me on guitar and I know the music and text well enough to sing without them in front of me. I focused on the words and sang mostly with my eyes closed--more for concentration than for anything else. The results were fine. Quite frankly, "O Holy Night" could stand on its own as a poem.

DollyPop.........sounds like your version of O Holy Night was beautiful. I remember singing it in a choir years ago and it was a difficult song to sing.

Mine also was great!
