This song is about Jesus Christ coming to our world to Save. Wondetfully written yo not scare anyone off but still get it. Genius.
I saw Neil Diamond in concert when I was 21 years old. I am 67 and will never forget it. He is absolutely amazing. Holly Holy is my favorite of all his songs. And they are ALL great!
Love all of his songs!!!
I've seen him live twice. This could be his best.
I don’t know if you can get any better a performance and emotional song than this… on the Ed Sullivan Show no less. My family never missed a show. Every Sunday evening. Like clock work we all gathered around the set. Neil Diamond is simply brilliant!
How can anybody not love this song. A total masterpiece.
Masterpiece he is for sure and aging well and handsome as ever or more handsome as he ages, how about that!
@@shelahchapman1578 Well I’m not going to comment on that. I love the song, let’s leave it there.
You'd have to be dead
Being a singer-songwriter myself growing up on a.m. gold on the radio in San Diego California I always thought I'd be hard-pressed to pick my favorite song of all time. But here it is.. Neil Diamond's " Holly Holy ". I've heard him in an interview say that this is a "stream of consciousness song".. that you're not even supposed to pay attention to the lyrics. But on this dear Neil I have failed miserably because each one of your words speaks directly into my heart. One of the most beautiful love songs ever written... The emotion in your eyes in this video could move any boat across an ocean.... The whole entire video is exquisite and I am obsessed quite literally. I believe this is my third or fourth post on this song of yours.
Everything he does is a masterpiece
This song is a spiritual feeling !
Holy beautiful, gorgeous man! I was actually born the day after this aired!. Just love this song. Damn, he looks sooooo hot!
This song gives me chills. I've known how wonderful he was - but as I aged forgot just how emotional his songs were.then I watched Midnight Mass the music was so moving in this. I think I have watched it 15 times. Beautiful - moving. We don't get music like this now.
I have also seen midnight mass 3 times, this song makes that montage scene so powerful and emotional
Neil is one amazing person
It's hard to believe that this song was released during the start of the Christmas season in 1969 or 1970..did you have a 45 of this inspiring song?
If you listen to a radio station that plays oldies you might hear it
@@TheJeffiboxI wonder if the series is set in a decade like the late 60's
This is a man and artist that should live forever! No generation would tire of his music ! His eyes are so soulful and his music unmistakeable and unforgettable
He is the best looking man I've ever seen,even now,he's 83yrs still got that sorrowful look,love his music too😊😊
Great use of this classic song in new Netflix series "Midnight Mass"...simply powerful, amazing...In Episode 3.
Oh yeah !!! I had never heard the ND song played during the opening tragic scene. Finding a new GREAT song from that .... our fabulous era was .... heart warming.
Yes. Got goosebumps hearing that on there!
First time I heard it on midnight mass episode 3 too. Start searching and searching and finally download it Today on Sunday Farthest Day here in NZ ✌️
yes!!! it brought me to tears!
My favourite TV montage giving me a new favourite song
What a fantastic music Era we had ! Never to be repeated!
Agreed! Thank God for technology of videos, recordings, etc.
Amen to that!!!
👍🙏
Neil Trying So Hard
To Hold His Emotions In
& Not Fall Apart Performing This Song!
Pouring Out His Heart,
Mind & Soul!!👏👏
Love this song. I’ve “felt” this song for almost 30 years & it still gets me every time I listen.
Me too
Totally agree with you. Since the first time I heard....so sweet and powerful....
This and Sundown by GL.
Me too
What a handsome and gorgeous young man, and those eyes were amazing, plus his voice.... he had it all.... 👌👍☺
I know! Is it any wonder I fell in love with him when I saw this performance In Nov '69?
(He has it all)
He Still Has It And AlWays Will !!!
He's like a Jewish version of Elvis.
@@jonhirst9679 AMEN to that! I still find him fascinating and so inspiring... what a HUGE talent!!!!! 💖
"Call the sun in the dead of the night
And the sun's gonna rise in the sky
Touch a man who can't walk upright
And that lame man, he's gonna fly
And I fly
And I fly"
THAT is some marvelous writing!
Absolutely!
Neil is not only the best, he's the best of the best! What an incredible talent!
His voice is just PERFECTION
BEAUTIFUL STRONG SONG LOVE NEIL DIAMOND ❤️
I am completely obsessed with the emotion expressed in his eyes... The set design and the dancers and of course that incredibly beautiful string arrangement... that seems to lift you up. This is my favorite song of all time. Personal thanks to the one and only.. Mr Neil Diamond....
Absolute Classic! If you don’t feel this song and get you going, nothing will. Beautiful Neil!
One of the best songs all time
Totally agree...
Neil! Good Lord this man could and can sing! Keep it up, Neil!
This is one of his best songs! Holly Holy undoubtedly shows that this man is in touch with his heart! Neil diamond shows in his song his voice and his eyes that he is a man of Christ our Lord God bless you Neil diamond!
MY FAVORITE WHICH IS HARD TO CHOOSE ❤❤😂
Makes me tearful every time ❤
What the F are you talking about....This song is about placing a women as as a god like figure, that he's obviously in love with....(ah, his words by the way, and I believe he is Jewish)
Great songwriter.
Melody, Lyrics, Charisma.
I think a show like Ed did could not exist a long time today., because we have no good music today!
No matter how many times I hear this wonderful song....it just gets better and better. My favourite by far!
There'll never be another Neil Diamond. The American performer who really gave us the totality of human emotion, in song. 🙏
An incredible voice.
Was able to take my Mom to see Neil 3 times in concert.
Love the dancers interpretations.
One of my favourite Neil Diamond songs! :)
What a strong performance by Neil Diamond 💪. Takes my breath away 🤩
Seeing Neil sing one of my favourite songs on The Ed Sullivan Show doesn't get much better. Many thanks'.
You can tell he sang along with the record (backup vocals, instruments, etc.), but I still love this performance on Ed.
That set-Those dancers-THAT VOICE- and all live...What a mighty time it was.
I thought the dancers were unnecessary - but they were bloody good.
Hippies 🙂
Wonderful. If this song doesn’t move you and get you going, I don’t if anything will. Such a talent! I love the late ‘60’s colors and styles. Great memories of my adolescent years.
I said it before and I'll say it again ... magnificent classic - both the song and the man. Thank you Neil for this trip through time. Vince Kloss
Midnight Mass anybody ?
Of course! Best combo!
Of course! Love it!
The gospel choir and the violins along with Neil's stunning voice makes this song pure magic. I've always loved this track but I've really rediscovered this gem since watching the Netflix series "Midnight Mass". Mike Flanagan always picks the most epic and unforgettable soundtracks.
Brilliant.
Played this song over and over when my kids were growing up and little did I know his songs were forever etched in their minds as was I.
HOLY SMOKES! Beautiful voice and a very handsome man
I can’t believe six thumbs down. This song is awesome. Love you, Neil.
I was privileged to see him live in concert. He sounded as good in concert as he did on the record. Very highly talented artist.
Saw him twice on his Ameruca tour! So awesome!!!! Great artist!!!
me too! it was the first concert I took my folks to, at Red Rocks. It was like 10 years later though. They were never the same!
Undoubtedly A Man
Completely In Touch
With His Heart, Mind &
Soul!!!
Saw him in Chicago & Vegas absolutely 💯 legendary live.
The acoustics in that theater were astounding, and added to the live performances. And that dance choreography was spectacular.
This is one of my favorite songs from Neil 💗🎶🎼🎵🎹
My Mom used to play Neil all the time when I was a kid, I loved this song then & love it more now. Great memories.
This song can still choke me up l; was 8 years old when it came out I'm 60 now and it still gets me deep, Thank You Neil for all the masterpieces you've created I never get tired of them...
One of my favorite singers when I was young fifty years ago, also for some friends that are not already in this world. Greetings from Spain.
Production with a hippie, sixties vibe to it. Excellent.
Also Christmas-y vibe this song sounds like they've sampled the string arrangement from Gene pitney's song "last train to Tulsa"
WHAT A MAN! LOVE NEIL DIAMOND, HE IS BRILLIANT, GOOD SINGER AND SONG WRITER, HE HAS WRITTEN MORE SONGS THAN ANY OTHER PERSON IN HISTORY!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This is in my opinion... The hand of God that blessed us all with the remarkable and timeless... Supernatural talent of NEIL DIAMOND.
Midnight Mass brought me here. Great show, but man this song knocked me out.
That song is a Diamond ! Neil u're really one's ❤
N E I L D I A M O N D !!!!! THE BEST EVER. !!!!!!
One of the greatest songs of all time.
He had it all, amazing♥️
Where do you start with this? The emotion in his voice and in his eyes.... The absolute conviction of every word that he sings. This is
And utter confidence
Neil draws people into the joy and love of this masterpiece. He's great!
This might be the best song that ever was and nobody knows.
Boy do I agree we were lucky to witness some of the best singers,bands of that time and to me the 60's was the best no insult to noone else plus loving the British Invasion and of coarse The Beatles as I sometimes won't mention cause of the smarty pants comments people make. To me Neil Diamond was the Best and as much times as I watch it over and over it still chokes me
Neil's best performance of this song on TH-cam. He really gets into it. I wonder while he was performing the song if Ed Sullivan was back stage trying to figure out what this song was actually about.
Beautiful song Beautiful man,can't say it enough
Resonates still...right down to my soul.
YESSSSS
It happens that I can listen to the wounderful song "Holly holy", sung by the US- american singer Neil Diamond. I know this wounderful song since my youth days in the 60ties and I very appreciate this song.
I had such a large crush on Neil and still do when I watch him. Such a beautiful man.
I’m 20 and not even a Christian or religious at all but this song fills me with hope and comfort. I discovered it from that really great Netflix show Midnight Mass and now it’s one of my favorite songs.
Same thing here. Loved midnight mass and this song in that montage scene was so powerful and emotional. I love it
I wonder just how many Christians and Jews actually understand this song and in particular this performance of it!? Lots of depth to that rabbit hole that few have probably gone down. Don't let movies motivate your spirit ;) You've got the power inside you to reach heights untold or seen.
@WalburgisLuppus it's not about religious awakening . It's about the effect a womans love has on a man
Same here 😊
Here because of Midnight Mass. The scene where they used this music was so goooood
Edit: and wow this performance slaps 🔥 Love the hippie worship vibes lmao
Best TV montage scene
Proverbs .. perfect combo!
Proverbs.. perfect combo!
What a genius
That voice! And those eyes!
What a handsome man. I honestly LOVE the colors of the stage. Just so '70's.
I can't tell you how much I love this old footage.
Huge Neil Diamond fan, he is one of the best!!! This choreography is quite something, very 60's:)
Man, he was gorgeous! And what pipes!
Chills abound!!!! He is one of the most exciting entertainers that ever graced the stage.❤😊. And so totally gorgeous!
I call it " The Holy Spirit Chill..."
Great song and absolutly a the most talented singer.
Super duper handsome total package 😊❤
This guy is a TALENT... Amazing!
Consistently magnificent.
Neil said that when he heard the playback Holly Holy was a hit. A spectacular song on my hi-fi.
This man is a god among men :)
He dropped out of college just shy of graduating to follow his dream and never looked back; He made his own path, regardless of the trends and created a legacy that has endured. A top tier composition skillfully written and performed.
I love this song Neil diamond is my husband's favorite singer 💗
What a classic hit, my favorite...❤
Ooh that voice always gives me chills. Just beautiful.
The string arrangement on this seems to catch you up... Lifting you onto another level... swirling
An amazingly beautiful song
My god this is beautiful
YES
Awesome music,what emotion he puts in his voice ❤❤️❤️🙏🏿
Absolute perfection
Loved Neil Diamond from 1968 onwards - saw him in concert and had most of his albums - we share the same birthdate 24th January! - never had a bad song - I love Jonathon Livingstone Seagull the music is amazing 💕
Einer der schönsten Männer aller Zeiten und mit soviel Charme und Charisma. Seine Stimme ist einzigartig. Seine Lieder werden immer Bestand haben. Ich liebe ihn und seine Musik seit ich 7 Jahre alt war. Bin jetzt 56 und es wird immer so bleiben. Kein Tag ohne seine Musik.
I had to hear this song again after seeing the Netflix series "Midnight Mass", as others have indicated. The song, which I had not heard in a long time, has been stuck in my head for a couple of weeks. I don't remember Mr. Diamond doing this on Ed Sullivan. What a great performance.
Totally love this song.
TH-cam is missing a 'love' button...
Holy mackerel. Serious drama. Brilliant. Thank you for uploading!
When Music, Voice , Feeling and Soul become one.....
Oh my gosh! Thank you so much for posting this! I've been looking for a long time for this clip. This is where it all began for me. I was a young teen when I watched this on television, and I've LOVED Neil Diamond ever since. Thank you. Thank you.
me too
ohne worte, großartiger künstler !!!!
Forgot about this song till I heard it on Midnight Mass, great scene!
Neil can command an audience like no other entertainer I've seen. And since the 70s thru the 80s I've seen the biggest bands & solo artists. Neil was absolutely electricfying! Now im a "Believer"! Neil went to NYC to pursue being a Dr. Lawd have mercy thank God he pursued the music career that forever changed his life, and his music was/ is/ will be a huge part of my life!
Incredible
LEGEND !! Sad we don't hear such raw talent and powerful voices these days ....:(
