Soul-Heaven, Mary is the Soul and Andre is the heaven.. this is one of the best duets ever.. the two very different voices coming together was just genius!
Mary J Blige is suuuuch! a powerful singer!! omg :) Love herrrr voice and her power..and as ALWAYS Andrea is phenomenal!! I remember when i first saw this on Oprah, talk about goose bumps!!
God bless Mary J. Blige and Andrea Bocelli for this important, historical proclamation of the Christ. Oh, that we would all know the depth and wonder of what God has both prophesied and accomplished through Jesus Christ. *"Who has believed what we have heard? And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?"* *"For he grew up before him like a young plant, and like a root out of dry ground; he had no form or comeliness that we should look at him, and no beauty that we should desire him."* *"He was despised and rejected by men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief; and as one from whom men hide their faces he was despised, and we esteemed him not."* *"Surely, he has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; yet we esteemed him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted."* *"But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that made us whole..."* --[Isaiah 53, v1-5]
La La I hear you loud and clear I'm a man and not ashamed to say this makes me t ear up so beautful and so much adoratio n to our lord and savior Jesus Christ 🙏
I watched this episode from the very beginning and heard Oprah sing the praises of Andrea Bocelli. She never left him out of this praises. BOTH Andrea Bocelli AND Mary J. Blige a beautiful job. Stop trying to take away from the great job that both of them did. Give credit where it is due. Beautiful rendition of the song.
Thank you Brandi, I couldn't see that Oprah did anything wrong and I looked at the very beginning several times and I still did not see what TheTaodee saw. I wrote her a note of encouragement and hopefully she will find peace w/this fantastic performance by all. Oprah would never treat Andrea with any kind of disrespect and for the matter Oprah is and will always be a giving, loving person... to all!
When a song can move you toTears and give you Chills at the same time, you know its Dynamic! Love Love Love this Duet with Mary & Andrea. Just amazing. Soulful + Powerful = Magical 💫
Every time I watch this, I have to laugh, because Oprah stands in front of Andrea, (like he's not even there) and gives Mary J a big hug. I guess Oprah thought since Andrea is blind, he wouldn't notice.
The authenticity of their performance is so uplifting! You know that they are feeling this! These feelings that are elicited by such a performance are so beautiful. Exemplifies the the beauty and magic of the season! This is what people should hold onto all throughout the year. Whether you celebrate or not there is no denying how positive and therapeutic this is!
LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS COLLABORATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IN 2018 I still get chills listening!!! They touch my spirit and soul with the perfect blend of harmony! What a gem! What a masterpiece! Magnificent! Love you Mary and Andre for this blessing!!!!
I remember this episode.... I was in college and working three jobs. We were on holiday vacation; however, I still had to work and could not make it home for the holiday... anyway i got off work late fell asleep on the sofa with the tv on. I remember waking up crying to this song... It was sooo beautiful and the emotion that was put into the song.. Just remarkable and insane that a song like this could wake someone up from their sleep lol
Today is Friday, April 26, 2024. It's been my favorite for many years... I come here often. I will never tire of this most beautiful song... any time of the year. ❤❤❤❤
What a duet! Every Christmas, I have to listen to this piece many...many times and it doesn't hurt to see that beautiful Mary J. as well. If only Andrea could see that beautiful woman he just put his arm around.😊😊
Such a precious gift God has given us in the form of his son. We will never know the love He has for us I'd understand how much we needed it. Thank you Abba
It ain't too often dat MJB getz up o stage an' reveals how truly talented she on a whole otha level. She a true a' unique individual who chooses t' set herself apart from da commo vocalists. Not anyone can get up on stage wit AB cuz who will not allow just a singer t' accompany him..u have t' be great an' able t' deliver. Mary is great an' she mo' than deliverz
AMAZING!!!! To me they performed it the best on this show, even better then the track itself. and i have not been able to get Mary's hair outta my mind, the nicest short cut hairstyle i ever seen on a woman.
It’s 2020 and I still listen to this dozens of times during the holidays. THIS performance should be released by itself so it is saved and played for all time!
I agree with Lostris. People need to stop insulting Andrea. He's got to be one of the best singers on the planet. If you guys don't like him then don't listen to him. I absolutely love his voice and his music is awesome. So stop talking bad about Andrea please.
amazing performance but more importantly the arrangement is what made this. who would have thought one could arrange "soul" but in this perfromance it ws done. and Andrea can hold notes for days. at 2:09 onward was such magical moments
But this is a different level of arrangement. You're talking about trained musicians who understand theory of music. And I'm talking about THIS performance with THESE two singers from completely different types of music
A beautiful inspirational song which was sung beautifully by both. Being professional singers, they sang equally well together. I've no idea what some people here were watching or listening to, but this was a performance well done! Not a contest and Mary was NOT out of breath. She's simply soulfully feeling the song. That is her style. Everyone has their own style so stop nit-picking and enjoy the video.
I wish there was a better recording of this performance! I saw this live all those years ago and have watched it a hundred times since. It brings tears to my eyes every time. Literally the best Christmas song ever performed live.
They TORE THIS UP…. All these years later… it’s still one of the BEST LIVE renditions.
Imagine being at the Feet of Jesus...and this song being sung....to Jesus Christ.
Hallelujah.
Mary tore this up, one of her best vocal sessions ever
No matter how many times I hear this version, I will never cease to get goosebumps!
It’s the fact that Mary shown us all that she is truly diverse and is not stuck in a box. 2021 and still listening
2022 and still POUNDING!
2022 and Jesus is Lord!
2023💕
2023 and still listening.
Diverse ???
I love how Mary is giving so much emotion at the end singing 'Mary Mary'.
Two words ... "Historic duet"!
The way Andrea Bocelli and Mary J Blige sing this song sends chills through my spine. Just beautiful.
This gives me the chills but Oprah was incredibly rude at the end of this as she literally brushed Andrea aside to hug Mary J. Blige
instaBlaster.
@@pockynonand stood in front of him. I have less respect for Oprah now
She’s disgusting for that!
Super disrespectful & dismissive, that woman is an Ox! No genuine manners at ALL!
🎶 Money can’t buy you Cla-hass 🎶
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love Mary J. Blige! this was a match made in heaven.
MARY IS A VOCALIST......R&B, JAZZ, GOSPEL, POP, HIPHOP, OPERA!!!!!!!!!!!
Opera???? Ummm stop reaching
Soul-Heaven, Mary is the Soul and Andre is the heaven.. this is one of the best duets ever.. the two very different voices coming together was just genius!
The best version of this song I ever heard.
Mary J Blige is suuuuch! a powerful singer!! omg :) Love herrrr voice and her power..and as ALWAYS Andrea is phenomenal!! I remember when i first saw this on Oprah, talk about goose bumps!!
This is a Standing Ovation Performance by both
THIS...I just love their rendition, this is absolute perfection
That song with those two never gets old and will always be my favorite song, gave me chills listening to it.
OMG this made me cry like a baby. Absolutely genius.
Mary is fantastic.
God bless Mary J. Blige and Andrea Bocelli for this important, historical proclamation of the Christ. Oh, that we would all know the depth and wonder of what God has both prophesied and accomplished through Jesus Christ.

AMEN🎉
I think she's absolutely beautiful....and the voice of an angel!
This is the best live performance by them and better than the album track recording to me
La La I hear you loud and clear I'm a man and not ashamed to say this makes me t ear up so beautful and so much adoratio n to our lord and savior Jesus Christ 🙏
This is such a gorgeous performance. Effortlessly dynamic.
Mary looked F-ing Amazing!!!! And sounded perfect. Singing with Andrea? Major!!!!
Still loving this in 2020. Merry Christmas everyone.
@3:08 I thought she was gonna take off running...... Love when the spirit hits her and she can't control it
The best Christmas song ever...beautifully sung. I even listen to this song in July. Love you guys!
I watched this episode from the very beginning and heard Oprah sing the praises of Andrea Bocelli. She never left him out of this praises. BOTH Andrea Bocelli AND Mary J. Blige a beautiful job. Stop trying to take away from the great job that both of them did. Give credit where it is due. Beautiful rendition of the song.
I so agree Brandi.Both are enormously gifted.I dislike how many turn every beautiful act into debate.This stands as untouchable.
Thank you Brandi, I couldn't see that Oprah did anything wrong and I looked at the very beginning several times and I still did not see what TheTaodee saw. I wrote her a note of encouragement and hopefully she will find peace w/this fantastic performance by all. Oprah would never treat Andrea with any kind of disrespect and for the matter Oprah is and will always be a giving, loving person... to all!
The voice from that African American woman Mary J is so amazing to date/
Mary your teaching all these young girls what class is. Good Bless you!
@2:54 my parents when I bring home good grades.
What a song!.... My favorite song for the season always.
Mary's best performance vocally ever. She composed herself and left out all the stomping and extra stuff!
I first heard this song on Oprah with my mom and I loved it the first time I heard it. Marry J Blige and Andre Bocelli are beautiful together.
Every christmas, literally every christmas I re-visit this song and it remains new. This version is all-time. Blessings to Bocelli and Mary.
historical duet mary j blige is undisputed- ever!
Mary really did that .... I can't say anything else...
All nations recognize the birth of the Creator and Savior of the world. They did a great job in this presentation.
Wow this song leaves me speechless! ❤️❤️❤️
Oprah was so rude though - she completely side stepped Bocelli to greet and praise Mary J. Blige.
@@pockynon Rude af... I noticed that right off. Didn't even acknowledge Andre... she's a phoney!
When a song can move you toTears and give you Chills at the same time, you know its Dynamic! Love Love Love this Duet with Mary & Andrea. Just amazing. Soulful + Powerful = Magical 💫
Every time I watch this, I have to laugh, because Oprah stands in front of Andrea, (like he's not even there) and gives Mary J a big hug. I guess Oprah thought since Andrea is blind, he wouldn't notice.
This song really puts me in the spirit of Christmas love to hear Andrea and Mary.
A duet so beautiful It gave me chills!!!
What child is this? It is our Lord; our Savior - the Lord Jesus Christ! Praise God and praise Him for his wonderful creation of song!!
simply amazing! these are true singers!
Got me crying at my desk; my coworkers are going to think i'm crazy, lol
The authenticity of their performance is so uplifting! You know that they are feeling this! These feelings that are elicited by such a performance are so beautiful.
Exemplifies the the beauty and magic of the season! This is what people should hold onto all throughout the year. Whether you celebrate or not there is no denying how positive and therapeutic this is!

Amazing...Mary is great
Mary makes any duet better - she has a strong voice but never tries to out power her partner unlike Christina Aquilar or Celine Dion.
what a wonderful singing. This is beyond words. Mary, your voice and expression & emotions when singing is amazing. this made me cry
I remember this episode.... I was in college and working three jobs. We were on holiday vacation; however, I still had to work and could not make it home for the holiday... anyway i got off work late fell asleep on the sofa with the tv on. I remember waking up crying to this song... It was sooo beautiful and the emotion that was put into the song..

I still am brought to tears each and every time I listen to this
Love you Mary J Blige ! Love Andrea too ! That was Beautiful !! May God bless you both . Such a Sacred song. Love you Mary J ALWAYS DID ALWAYS WILL !
This was absolutely beautiful. Both show versatility by being able to sing with each other on this track.
amazing performance but more importantly the arrangement is what made this. who would have thought one could arrange "soul" but in this perfromance it ws done. and Andrea can hold notes for days. at 2:09 onward was such magical moments
+Prince Byrd All types of singing has always been arranged.
But this is a different level of arrangement. You're talking about trained musicians who understand theory of music. And I'm talking about THIS performance with THESE two singers from completely different types of music
2022 and im just hearing this song......omg...now I have it on repeat lol
Chills every single year! My favorite Christmas song. God bless

Andreas voice here is like a solid matter who leads Marys voice which brings shivers, emotion. Strong combo

Cannot listen to it without crying....ever
Hallelujah! Excellente! Oprah knew if she put these 2 together.
