@@reeceoryan2770I'm still here listening to his incredible voice June 2024 He is one of the most gifted and soulful singers around👍💯❤ Warm hugs from France ❤
Honestly, Christina is one of the best female singers I've ever heard, but Brian McKnight is probably the best male singer I've heard yet. What he can do with his voice, most people don't know about. Not to mention, he has a 4 octave range, which is rare, and he doesn't have to use falsetto, unless it makes what he's singing more tasteful.
Man... It's such a shame Brian has always been quite an underachiever all his career. Don't get me wrong, he's recognized in the industry, but he's never won a Grammy or never been seen as a great. But he's easily in my TOP 10 SINGERS of ALL TIME. No Doubt. His runs are the most sophisticated and cleanest I've ever heard, and his voice is powerful when it needs to be. Brian is one of the few singers that, when I'm about to watch a live performance of his, I just KNOW he's gonna kill it. No doubt at all.
Couldn't agree with this more, 100% accurate on this comment bro, and I'v seen him live twice, he can do literally ANything with his voice, totally under-rated achievement wise 3-(
Jasper Jamm u can't say he is an underachiever. U can't blame him for media outlets or fans not supporting him. Trust in the r&b/African American community he is a vocal legend!
Chad Reid word yea, I’m not blaming him. He has the talent to be one of the all time greats. I guess he’s not at that level so I said he sorta underachieved
@@sapphirelatina no she forgot the lyrics lol. She stopped in the middle of her phrase during the climax of the song because she forgot the lyrics! She gets ahead of herself. She’s human. It’s fine. But please pay attention before you comment wrong information.
@sapphirelatina I think so too. In her original version of this, she would belt “allow” to build up for the climax but it’s overpowering for a duet so she changed and toned it down bec. he didn’t mind letting her belt it solo. So she paused so he could also sing.
Brian McKnight is an incredible vocalist (that’s an understatement) and an incredible supporting vocalist. His duet with Celine Dion also displays his skill level. And honestly, you cannot just put any male vocalist with a 90s diva - Brian is a legend. And he sings in this key effortlessly when it’s actually not easy at all.
A pitch perfect performance. Loved the vocal acrobatics showcased by Christina on this one. She was phenomenal. The runs and riffs she executed so well were so vastly intricate and complicated yet she made it seem so easy. A true vocal diva. Brian did an amazing job as well.
that's, christina used head register &high head (shv) too , above 2:23 that's Run head voice G#5-B5-C6-Eb6-F6 and then down to B5-D6-C6 ,, her falsetto example on 2:16-2-22 ,,her falsetto&head voice,both are very pretty&beautiful but they have a different sounds/tones , her falsetto is very thin while her head voice register is very clear&fuller but the xtina head register it's has a pretty&beautiful tones & timbre .
They are both spectacular. I am not a fan of Christina, although I recognize she has one of the BEST voices in modern pop history, BUT I love her Christmas album, I actually think it is very well done and put together with thought and love.
I was so shocked in a good way when I stumbled across this. God, their voices together give me chills, I wish they recorded this in a recording studio at the time. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
omg guys. everyone has their own favorite singers. quit the hating. i don't see why you can't love christina, beyonce, and brian at the same time. no doubt, all three are inspirational singers. why do people always argue about the simplest things. smh. then smh again. just enjoy music. :) one love.
Fantastic, awesome! Even the pianist is ace - sweet and gorgeous harmonizations. I hear often that Christina oversings it. I don't think so. I think that we now live in a world of musical mediocrity, and that most "artists" undersing it - and people don't know that this vocal technique is not just show off - it is close to gospel music, where super-highy talented people sing their heart and soul out like there is no tomorrow. Christina and Brian are doing just that! Brilliant! Love you guys!
Her vocals during "My King of Christmas" era was outstanding...i mean, OMFG. Incredible! Wonderful performance :) and LOL @ Brian McK at every christmas performance lol he sings with everybody!
One of the best duets from 2 most amazing beautiful vocals in the world for the Christmas song...i can't stop loving to hear this song each year on the Christmas season 🎅🎄💯💛👍💙
I can't think of any other performance of Christina's that shows more vocal talent than this. This was literally her peak I guess. She pulled out every trick in the book and executed this perfectly. I want this Xtina back!
two vocal icons of new soul :) I know you're gonna attack their technique - go on :) On this level of sound, talent and vocals - nobody cares for what you'll say :) You can have your opinion - but it is a pity that some people don't appreciate the level of talent in this performance... Regards from Poland
Brian McKnight is a legend..
vanessa clay yeah I think his prime vocals might've even been better than R Kelly
+Tremaine Brown might've??? Of course they were and still better than R Kelly.
Always a legend he is
Well said girl
And an underrated one
I can listen to Brian McKnight's voice all day.....
For sure
@@reeceoryan2770I'm still here listening to his incredible voice June 2024 He is one of the most gifted and soulful singers around👍💯❤ Warm hugs from France ❤
Tell me about it I love me some him ❤
easily, one of the best vocal performances ever in a duet
Very bold but it really is that good!
Chris Fullington both insanely talented but they are showboating a bit too much on this one in my opinion.
It's called an opinion @Bitchtania 1234567890KG gained lately
Chris Fullington Yes indeed.
Well, check out" when u call" by mariah Carey and Brian McKnight,then u decide!!
Christinas tone around this time was honestly God-like.
no it isn't
God doesn’t sing
still today😊
@@clinttroy6066such a hater 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Honestly too, both of them are incredible perfect and match to do duet.... incomparable... it's true...
Facts

Underachiever? Perhaps in terms of business and sales numbers, but certainly not in terms of musical talent.

Jasper Jamm perhaps not underachieving, but underrated... but still both I agree. So underrated it's criminal
xtina's tone is everything
Christina's pitch in this is everything.
nice joke
no... you're the joke
your mom is
MrGetoDac your existence is.
your father :))
1:50-2:00 is the best ever don't say anything else
I love how at 2:57 she looked over at him because she forgot the lyrics and he helped her along until she finished. Such a gorgeous duet.
🙂🙂🙂
nah she didnt forget the lyrics, she was taking over his parts and he was ok with letting her carry on
@@sapphirelatina no she forgot the lyrics lol. She stopped in the middle of her phrase during the climax of the song because she forgot the lyrics! She gets ahead of herself. She’s human. It’s fine. But please pay attention before you comment wrong information.

Natural tone without constant distortion and rasp free singing. Sounds so good. Miss this Christina.
1:50-2:02 the most beautiful
Yeah! I agree...
lol i was just gonna post the exact same thing. amazing!!!
Minor Action I agree 1000%
I literally cried when I heard that part
What note he does in that moment?
Brian McKnight is an incredible vocalist (that’s an understatement) and an incredible supporting vocalist. His duet with Celine Dion also displays his skill level. And honestly, you cannot just put any male vocalist with a 90s diva - Brian is a legend. And he sings in this key effortlessly when it’s actually not easy at all.
Literally, Brian is ridiculous. Vocals that I live for. :) 1:52 my favorite.
I always listen to this when its December, every year
Just discovered this, will become a tradition of mine too!
Dang christina got the best voice of our generation
She was only 19. Legend.
Even in 2020, 1:51 gives me goosebumps😱
Edit: 2021

On God 🤣🤣 Brian is a bad man 💯
Christina's voice is the epitome of a woman's voice.
Have to give props to the pianist made this performance that much more beautiful
It’s very Brian mcknighty
A pitch perfect performance. Loved the vocal acrobatics showcased by Christina on this one. She was phenomenal. The runs and riffs she executed so well were so vastly intricate and complicated yet she made it seem so easy. A true vocal diva. Brian did an amazing job as well.
Their voices matched PERFECT!!!
Christina's falsetto is one of the best imo
that's, christina used head register &high head (shv) too , above 2:23 that's Run head voice G#5-B5-C6-Eb6-F6 and then down to B5-D6-C6 ,, her falsetto example on 2:16-2-22 ,,her falsetto&head voice,both are very pretty&beautiful but they have a different sounds/tones , her falsetto is very thin while her head voice register is very clear&fuller but the xtina head register it's has a pretty&beautiful tones & timbre .
literally my favorite rendition of this forever.
No words can describe. B McKnight my favorite male rnb artist of all time and xtina... my white female rnb artist of all time haha
It’s 2020. Realizing how they sound so amazing together. I wish they can sing it again.
One of my favorite performances by Christina Aguilera. She's just amazing!
these people are vocal monsters!!!!!!
2024 anyone?
1.50 is one of the best live vocals ever
I love how Brian Mcknight matched Christina's singing style and actually nailed it!!
Brian is among Christina's musical inspiration
Fucking legendary.
1:36-2:02 brings me to tears, so beautiful
They are both spectacular. I am not a fan of Christina, although I recognize she has one of the BEST voices in modern pop history, BUT I love her Christmas album, I actually think it is very well done and put together with thought and love.
Best rendition of this song. QUEEN!

I love this version of the song.
Their voices really complimented each other. It was a good vocal from both
Fantastic, awesome! Even the pianist is ace - sweet and gorgeous harmonizations.
