if music were like coffee drink, I am confident to say and I know a lot will agree to me that Charice's rendition of this song is the perfect blend there is. An excellent singer should not only hit every notes in a song but should connect to his/her listeners... And Charice sure did it. Best Version of this song :)
Literally the best! And I say that being a huge Kelly Clarkson fan and watching her rendition and then listening to Charice and honestly Charice was perfection.
That just shows how much he wanted her transition. His voice drastically changed due to hormones. It won’t be the same and she knew that. But this just shows how important transitioning is to us. I as a transgender can tell you from experience that a lot changes. But it’s worth it in the end. And I can promise you. He is the happiest he has ever been now.
I love when they are introducing the performers. Who would have thought the name “CHARICE” is introduced along with other big singers in the world. Those were the days.
Her voice, tone, timbre and all are all remarkable. She could have actually been bigger than most of the reigning artists nowadays. But it is his life and we cannot do anything about that. Atleast we have YT to rewatch her glorious days
Charice this was an incrediable performance. It has been three years since I first heard it and I love it more than ever. We, "your fans" understand the hard fact that you are about the only one that can revive the music of the the golden era when music was real, with instruments and lyrics and stand alone performances that made the world cheer with child like enthusiam. That to me is what you can do for all mankind.
@@cmabry428 She is a talented Philippine singer already at young age. She was promoted in US for a while: attended in Glee show for couple episodes, sang in after party in Hollywood show, sang video game Final Fantasy 13 theme song, etc. Unfortunately she went through terrible drama in life and turned into this: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jake_Zyrus 😩😢
I always find myself in the middle of Charice's songs, with my jaws dropping and I look dumb but I don't care, I can't help it, her voice puts me in complete awe! :')
Sobrang nasasayangan talaga ako kay Charice her career was really in peak having albums guestings in US etc but she chose happiness over fame and money which is a brave thing to do. Anyway thank you for making us “ur kababayans proud”.
One of my biggest pet peeves - there's this stupid notion in the U.S. of what a female pop artist should sound like, so every singers are engineered in the studio to end up sounding the same. Demi Lavato sounds like Britney sounds like Selena sounds like Charice sounds like Gaga, and so on and so on. Can't stand it! Asian recording studios do much better jobs. In live recordings they don't engineer the soul out of it, so in the same way, I love her live recordings.
She is truly a rarity! This talent only comes by once in a lifetime! I am so grateful to witness her sing in my lifetime! She has so much control, strength, power, range, passion and clarity in her vocals. She is the one and only Charice! Love you even in 2020!!!
No one like her as David Foster says.You can see how Filipinos here in the states adore her during the time when she’s still charice . Even us at work we took time off just to see her in concerts of David Foster and friends.In Las Vegas .San Jose ,in Mondavi Winery .
Charice is a combination of Whitney and Celine ❤ Power, soul and emotive ❤️ Her voice is really soothing even with the high notes. Goosebumps and got teary eyes. She can play with your emotions. I really love her so much. ❤️
Possibly the best version of this song w/ Kelly Clarkson coming in close second. It's just so full of heartwarming emotion and childhood innocence in that big ol' smooth, big voice.
It’s 2020 and we’re still here, missing the old Charice. I cant help but imagine how big of a star she is by now if she didnt... anyway i hope she’s happy,
Still BY FAR the best version and performance of this song. The look on composer and accompanist David Foster's face tells it all. If I had a time machine, I would put this on my top 100 events to visit; and myself being so sexy, I'd stop Charice from even considering the sex change! Yeah, baby!!
Its December 2020, I always come back to this video during Christmas time. It captures the epitome of Christmas, the cold weather, the festive lights, the spirit of winter. Who's with me?
I actually miss Charice. It would’ve been awesome to see her grow in the US as an international star. Her voice is so much better than most of these female singers of this generation. I actually prefer when a singer can belt. Singers who CAN sing, to me are the best singers.
She has all the ability and the chance to become a big star like arianna grande, selena gomez or taylor swift. Some singers might reached a certain level of fame ONCE because their song became an instant hit but eventually didn't consistently reached the top because the fame really came from the song and not because of the talent, but charice DANG! She can make it on top! she is talented, adorable, and loved by many people and she might be the first pure filipino to be on that certain level of fame internationally something that most of the filipino artist targeted, to be on an international stage and to be known globally. You can clearly see her popularity in this video. I am a big fan of charice and I know that she is happy now being jake zyrus but you cant blame me i really adore her before whenever her videos popped on my reccomendations i automatically watched it and be amazed on her impeccable talent. CHARICE i will be your forever fan and i can assure you that i will forever watch your videos and continue to be amazed. JAKE ZYRUS I hope you already find peace and happiness, love and light ❤️❤️❤️
Honestly speaking, I don't usually listen to this song not because of the lyrics, but I did't find the rhythm pleasing to the ear, but with Charice version I'm now addicted to it. So soft and angelic voice... Love you Cha

How i wish Charice never changed...im not against LGBT but i miss all her achievements as Charice...hit like if u agree...
Or at least keep her singing voice 😊
THE FAME ATE HER.. SO SAD..
That just shows how much he wanted her transition.

I do,too. I wish to hear her voice again. I miss that sensational voice.

Yeah
And indeed! She was and /is a big singer, and always be a huge 🌟
Sinayang niya ang pagkakataon sa buhay niya....

At that time, Charice was still far ahead of my fav, Ariana Grande.

Damn. I miss Charice with David Foster. They made such a fantastic duo, and you can really see how they became father and daughter over the years..
I keep listening this rendition of charice pempenco every bermonths and also Christmas eve i hope charice well be back soon
She become a he now, not the same even back
When you hear Charice you are experiencing the very best on the market today.
It's not Christmas without listening to Charice's My Grown Up Christmas List.
It’s November 2020 and started watching this again...
Her talent is God given. No one can sing this song as beautiful as charice
i converted this video to mp3 and i play it in my car whole year round. jeez Charice you are the best
I have to add: How can a live vocal performance be so Perfect? In the studio, thats just One take! wow.
I always find myself in the middle of Charice's songs, with my jaws dropping and I look dumb but I don't care, I can't help it, her voice puts me in complete awe! :')
Wished it was still the same.
2023. Charice' ending riff/run to this song will always be the most heartfelt for me.. ❤
Perfection is when you hear the same quality in a live performance and a studio version. Superb!
True
This is the best version of that song I have ever heard. Wow! What an amazing talent, she is truly gifted!
This is my favorite Christmas song of all time! It gets me teary-eyed every time.
mine too and Charice version gets me teary too. I miss her sooooo much.
Sobrang nasasayangan talaga ako kay Charice her career was really in peak having albums guestings in US etc but she chose happiness over fame and money which is a brave thing to do. Anyway thank you for making us “ur kababayans proud”.
hindi happiness ang pinili ni charice...libog ang pinili ni charice...

Same.
Happy nga ba sya?
❤ this version. So much emotion in her voice. 😢
Charice will always be my standard of an amazing singer.
same.
Same. Charice and Lea are my wooooah moments.😂😍💕
Me too
Same
Sameee
This is the best memory from charice when she still alive.
You act like she died.
Thank God he is able to be himself and actually IS alive.
Charice is dead just admit it.......I'm a Filipino too
You’re an idiot
Unfortunately
The best rendition of My Grown Up Christmas List. Every Christmas, I can't help to watch this video.
The Charice that always will be. A pure talent.
The best rendition of this song ever! It’s her own , no one can compare! Never get tired listening!
She immortalised this song! Bravo!
This is much more beautiful than her recorded mp3. Why is it that almost all her live performance is much beautiful than those of her mp3 records.
Studio versions seem to not capture the fullness of her voice. Like you, i love all of her live performances so much more than the CD recordings.
One of my biggest pet peeves - there's this stupid notion in the U.S. of what a female pop artist should sound like, so every singers are engineered in the studio to end up sounding the same.

november 2016 and still heart broken ! missing the old charice :(
Hilarion Oliver selfishness . I prefer the real her. The one that made her happy. Not hiding anymore for the sake of others
Charice is a hell of a singer. Her vocals is spectacular. A certified artist.
She is truly a rarity! This talent only comes by once in a lifetime! I am so grateful to witness her sing in my lifetime! She has so much control, strength, power, range, passion and clarity in her vocals. She is the one and only Charice! Love you even in 2020!!!

Charice do you ever go back and view this performance?
True
Such great song and sad right
I do, all the time. I also get horny now as a man looking at my then female body.
yes she doing that silent view to her trowback and shes cry
this worth billboard no. 1 on Christmas rather than all i want for Christmas is you.
August 2019 still watching. Who's with me?
Alvin Leona me baby
What a voice and emotion. I miss Charice lot!
Possibly the best version of this song w/ Kelly Clarkson coming in close second. It's just so full of heartwarming emotion and childhood innocence in that big ol' smooth, big voice.
the best singer in the planet. Charice….
yeah, one of a kind voice
nawaf alharbe exactly.. i agree
nawaf alharbe
Yes! a 1 of a kind Singer.

She has one of the most beautiful voices. Awesome.
This song envelops the soul. Only Charice is able to do it. Bravo!!!
I never get tired of this video!!!!
missing Charice, this is my all-time favorite Christmas song.
This will always be the best rendition of this song for me. Everything is just perfect.

Kelly Clarkson's rendition is pretty spectacular

September 2016 still comeback here just to listen..hmmm..
It gives me goosebumps everytime I watch your videos charice.our charice Philippines pride.

My admiration to her brilliant talent will always be there. I don't care that you came out Charice. You're being you and you gained my respect.
Her voice is so perfect.
2023 soon again this will heat up here in TH-cam 🔥👏👏👏
Unforgettable collaboration between the song’s composer-arranger David Foster and the phenomenal Charice !!
Why do I have goosebumps just from the very first note? Great rendition!
No perfect Christmas than hearing Charice with a Christmas song.
How many times I play the video?
I can't remember. 😊😊❤
The best live version of this song. Natalie,Amy, Kelly & others competing for 2nd place. Charice was the best.
Kelly clarkson ft penta. Is the best actually
@@joshuaperlas3378 no chance Kelly sung better than Charice on this song.
Beautiful song sung by an absolutely brillant,gifted singer. I love Charice!!
It's ironic when you listen to this everyday, even it's not yet Christmas. I miss this Charice. :(
since you sang this song, i always come here. even if it's not christmas. this is a very emotional version. we miss u Charice!
OMG!! She still gives me goosebumps everytime I watch her videos!! Charice/Jake forever! ❤
It's been 3 years and kept coming back..I will never tire watching this one..
+Elma Evangelista Me too! :)

The only singer who gives you goosebumps effortlessly. Sad that we can no longer hear her beautiful voice.
This and her version of Jingle Bell Rock are the best Christmas carol performances of all time.
Best rendition,bravo Cha the legendary. Still the unbeatable until now.
101% agree🥰🥰
This is the BEST cover EVER!
I still remember you Charice! Missed this girl so much
