During the Christmas season, a whole new wave of music takes over the airwaves, commercials, and music stations around the world, creating a collective celebration of this heartwarming and wonderful time.
Among the timeless Christmas classics that are traditionally associated with this festive period are the beloved carols “Silent Night”, “Oh Come Ye All Faithful”, and the focus of today’s article: “Oh Holy Night.” This particular song has been performed globally in honor of Jesus Christ, and in 2015, an Irish vocal band released their own rendition of this beloved Christmas anthem.
Check it out the video below and enjoy it:
Recorded at Crookedwood Studios, it becomes immediately evident that this talented six-member vocal band from Ireland possesses true musical prowess. With one member playing the guitar and providing lead vocals, while the others contribute their own harmonies, a heartfelt and powerful performance is created, making it nearly impossible not to be moved by this revival of a Christmas classic.
Since its release in December 2015, the video has garnered over 40 million views and received 375K likes. The comment section is filled with thousands of compliments, praising the band’s exceptional performance.
One YouTube viewer wrote, “I love it when this song is sung by sweet soft voices. I don’t think it requires powerful interpretation, the song itself is powerful. The peace it brings to your heart is brought exactly by these soothing voices.”
Another commented, “A meaningful song, and beautiful vocals. I listened to it on repeat last Christmas and this year I went back. Maybe I’ll have to listen to it every Christmas from now on.”
This band’s history was unexpectedly short, but this band managed to gift us with this musical masterpiece before disbanding.
