This is absolutely my favorite Mannheimsteamroller song! The first time I heard it, tears welled up in my eyes. I gasped at the crescendos and smiled with each diminuendo. Now, every Christmas Season, I play this song again and again. And, with each first time replaying, my eyes well up with Tears, again. For me, this song arrangement captures so much of that Holy Night. The Fragility. Seeming loneliness of Mary and Joseph in that Manager with little Baby Jesus. The, the Triumphant moment for all! The Legion of Angels celebrating in Heaven! The Regality of the newborn King! The Harmony, the rightness restored to the world. Then, the somberness, hushness of the song at the end because of His life to come. That Hill on Calvary so distant but still there. Finally, closing quietly with the Piano and that single flame. His Flame. Tears. Good tears. But, tears nonetheless. Thank you for the gift to our World of this Song!
Oh whoever you are. ✨ I know your heart is filled with Jesus. 🕯️ No one, but Jesus Himself, could describe this piece any better than you. Bless you 🙏 Mannheim Steamroller- Just told the gospel through their arrangement of: "Oh Holy Night" Exalt 🎶 Emmanuel 🎶
I have heard a lot of music in my 75 years of life, and to me O Holy Night is probably the most beautiful song ever written. This arrangement by Mannheim Steamroller is excellent!
I had the pleasure of working as an Electrician for my Dad's company, and having Mr. Davis as our customer, for about 7 years. I love music, and it was a great experience meeting him, and witnessing the life of the Great Composer, Musician, Performer and Producer that he is. I'll always have those memories, specially around Christmas. Merry Christmas, to All.
I envy those people who possess THE GIFT... The Gift to make music. And if I had it, I would also want to use it to glorify GOD like these accomplished people.
There was a girl in high school, way back in the dark ages of 1983, who could sing this so pure, it left everyone in tears. I cannot listen to this song with dry eyes. But I listen to it anyway. Even in this instrumental, I can hear her voice singing it in my memory.... ....damn these onions! 😢
God bless us all this Christmas! May God bless this wonderful Nation and this world! We are caught up in a terrible time. I pray that we might make it through! Dear Lord hear us and give us strength to live, to love and to accept each other and the love you give us. Help us to learn to heed your word and to cast the life and the joy and your light throughout all of the corners of this glorious world that you have given us. Please help us to love each other as you would have us to do. Please grant us your discernment and give us your strength in these trying times! In Christ’s name and for the peace and understanding of this world!
When I was in high school, I played this version as a flute solo with piano accompaniment for midnight mass. We brought the entire congregation to tears with this. And before I knew it, I too was crying while performing. A truly moving rendition of this timeless classic. It kind of blows your heart wide open
Oh My Gosh!! The first time I’ve heard this by Mannheim! 😮😮 I think it’s the best arrangement that I have ever heard hands down! You have a God given talent. Thank You for this masterpiece!!
Just Mannheim. The OG. Stand alone inspirational perfection. May your music last forever. When our family with adult children and grandchildren gather on Christmas Eve for our most beautiful meal of the year, this is the background music. Merry blessed Christmas to all.
I love this and my mother always listened to this group at christmas time. It has been 20 years since she passed away and this makes me miss her even more
Mannheim always has magnificent Christmas music, it is soul grabbing. I have I believe three of their albums on CD, love the tenderness they show in their music, and I also love the thunder the put in some of it as well, just the right mix.
I want to thank Rush Limbaugh for introducing me to Mannheimsteamroller quite a fews years ago, RIP Rush - you are sorely missed by your fans. To me, it's not Christmas until you have listened to Mannheimsteamroller. SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL! MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL!!!
I was at Nassau Coliseum for the one and only time Mannheim Steamroller played there, and Chip Davis publicly acknowledged Rush Limbaugh from the stage for really introducing them to the Greater New York area.
I last saw them in Philadelphia in 2011. I went in knowing it wasn't the original band, but it turned out the host that night was Jackson Berkey: pretty much my favorite among them! (I love piano!)
There is music that moves our soul and this is one that calls to almost everyone who hears it. No matter what we believe, we should always find a moment for this. You won't find me in your church but still I wish you peace, joy and a very merry Christmas.
I know the music of the Steamroller since Fresh Aire I. Their musical vision is outstanding. This version of the French Carol is just marvelous. The structure, the arrangements are bound to be timeless. I feel chills and tears of joy everytime I listen to it.
I also fell in love with them in 1980 when I discovered the first three Fresh Aire records. Toccata remains one of my most meaningful songs of all time. I don't know how many hundreds of times I have listened to it in my lifetime.
Gammyfae on Poppals Al’s Our son and wife went to Lexington Kentucky a few years back you know we have to get past the Covid curse and then he gave me a CD. I had never heard Mannheim steamroller Christmas or any music by this group. If my son liked it then, I pretty much felt it was going to be heavy metal and I pretty much wanted no part. Fool me! The entire CD was beyond any music I’ve ever heard. I just got a pop-up on TH-cam, Oh Holy Night and to coin a phrase from Rush Limbaugh talent “on loan from God.” I will share with my son him tonight. Our son, his wife and their daughter my first and only granddaughter Olivia are coming for Christmas Eve brunch tomorrow and I will pull it up on the TH-cam TV. Thank you for bringing joy to this Christmas.
Mannheim Steamroller is the ONLY Christmas music I play @ home or in my car. As close to perfection as I’ve ever heard…and that much better in person! ( Twice ) When are you coming back to Central IN ? …
I would sure give the world to see you put together an instrumental version of "When Christmas Comes to Town" from the Polar Express!! No vocals - just pure manheim steamroller style, instruments only... Pretty sure that would sound AMAZING. ALMOST as good as my favorite - your version of The Hallelujah Chorus!! Crazy chance we could make that happen?
A couple years I bought tickets for Manheim Steamroller. I expected Chip Davis to be there. Well the paying customers weren't important enough to attract Mr Davis to be there. Very disappointed.
The violin was beautiful; so was the oboe solo - another lovely presentation from Mannheim Steamroller but i still like Trans- Siberian Orchestra and their "Carol Of The Bells"
I think this would have been great to watch live. But as a recorded piece... Weak, and a little bit sleepy. I just feel like they did not hit those power notes well enough.

🎉
I Agree and Silent Night is also my Favorite Too
Thank you @caly… the tears were many just during the music - and multiplied with your poignant words! For God so loved the world, that He gave!
Oh whoever you are. ✨
I know your heart is filled
with Jesus. 🕯️
No one, but Jesus Himself, could describe this piece any better than you.
Bless you 🙏

I'm 74 years old and I agree 100000%.
Just such a favorite for the Holiday! This piece, this group. Their Christmas album is such a joy, and calming to the heart and soul.
Shalom shalom!
My favorite Christmas song and love Mannheim steamroller would ,ove to see them in concert
Absolutely spectacular.
Mainheim steamrollers are one of the best groups around. This is beautiful!

I will say Chip Davis is amazing; has he given up on gospel music; seems likely some Asian influences later on. Am I incorrect
Joy and sadness Beauty From the Ashes. Music does so much for the soul

Hello Annie how are you doing hope you’re having a great time with your family may God bless you and your family
Manheim Steamroller is simply the absolute best! And O Holy Night is my favorite Christmas song! Perfect!
A profoundly moving performance of one of the greatest Christmas hymns ever written.
Saw MS in concert in Atlanta many years back, it was a surprise anniversary gift (Dec 15) for my wife. They were beyond awesome live.

I love this and my mother always listened to this group at christmas time. It has been 20 years since she passed away and this makes me miss her even more
So INFINITELY BEAUTIFUL.
Even though I am agnostic I love this song. I actually cried at one of your concerts.
Saw them last night here in Cleveland and the music was so beautiful.
I have seen them in Omaha three times and never get tired of hearing their beautiful music. They are amazing and so innovative.
I loved it. I always enjoy listening to them. My first exposure was the Christmas light display set to their music. It was fabulous!!💖💖💖💖💖💖
You excel at making music stirring. God bless!
I still get chills...every time I hear this. Simply beautiful.
PHEW! I bless our Father for blessing us with hearing!! Thank you for this rendition! :-)

@@Narrowgaugefilms I love it!! Thank you for telling me this. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!
Same! My sentiments exactly. I was fortunate to see Mannheim Steamroller in person about 5-6 years ago. Such amazing music!
I last saw them in Philadelphia in 2011. I went in knowing it wasn't the original band, but it turned out the host that night was Jackson Berkey: pretty much my favorite among them! (I love piano!)
Rush was a great American Patriot God bless him and his family Merry Christmas
Glorious MAGNIFICENT Rendition ❤❤❤THE LANGUAGE OF THE SOUL ❤❤❤HALLELUJAH ❤❤❤
Awesome
my new favorite version of my all time favorite song.
We love your music sooo much !! Thank you!! God Bless You!!!
Have heard this performed many times over the years. This is by far one of my most favorite versions.
I just heard Mannheim Steamroller's version of "Silent Night" on TH-cam. Now the Christmas season can begin.
One of the most visually evocative pieces of instrumental music I've ever heard. Outstanding
So Beautiful, made me cry🥲
There is music that moves our soul and this is one that calls to almost everyone who hears it. No matter what we believe, we should always find a moment for this. You won't find me in your church but still I wish you peace, joy and a very merry Christmas.

I saw them in Sioux Falls, SD in 2018 or 2019. The best concert I’ve ever been too.
simply beautiful

Wow!!
They are my most favorite orchestra to listen no matter what they play but this truly beautiful.
Still watch this July 2023
Haven’t heard them in years…where ya been?👍

Hello Emily how are you doing hope you’re having a great time with your family may God bless you and your family
Whew!
Nice!
Beautiful I love it 💜❤️❤️🩹❣️💋💔💖💚💕💙
That looks like the Orpheum Theatre in Omaha, Ne. Great place!
It might be…aren’t they from Omaha?
@@conniea4594 Yes
Wow y remember the Orpheum theatre? Great.
The Orpheum is a spectacular venue. Years ago the city planned to demolish it. Thankfully sanity won out.
Does Elyse Davis have a place where she posts songs? I loved her Greenesleeves. She has such a unique and great voice!!
@3:49 John boy??
Is it live or is it Memorex? So much like the studio recording. Everything they do is incredible. This may be their best.
This is taken from a live show, obviously, but I'm sure there were some post-filming touch ups to make the sound better.
Anything CHIP DAVIS puts together is HEAVEN ON EARTH
❤
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Excellent...RIP Rush Limbaugh.
to my favorite theologians..."to the benefit of people's actions", o holy night.
A couple years I bought tickets for Manheim Steamroller. I expected Chip Davis to be there. Well the paying customers weren't important enough to attract Mr Davis to be there. Very disappointed.
Am I right, are they not from Omaha, NE.?
I think so.
Hello Shirley how are you doing hope you’re having a great time with your family may God bless you and your family
What city is this?
The violin was beautiful; so was the oboe solo - another lovely presentation from Mannheim Steamroller but i still like Trans- Siberian Orchestra and their "Carol Of The Bells"
This is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard. Chip is amazing.....
What reaction?
That or Johnny Mathis
I think this would have been great to watch live. But as a recorded piece... Weak, and a little bit sleepy. I just feel like they did not hit those power notes well enough.
I came here for steamrollers
