Have you ever heard someone sing something that sounded really, really good, but it just seemed like they couldn’t ‘feel’ what they were singing?
For example, a couple years ago there was a young female pop artist that recorded a version of the hymn ‘His Eye Is On The Sparrow’. Beautiful voice. I just didn’t feel the emotion from her that she believed what she was singing…it sounded pretty, but something was missing.
With it being the Christmas season, it seems we’re inundated with numerous singers trying their hand at the spiritual Christmas songs, but to me, they’re missing something. Not a judgment call, just an observation.
Every Christmas, the local country station gets many, many requests for this song I posted below. It’s the most beautiful rendition of ‘O Holy Night’ I have ever heard. Cool thing is, the guy gets it. He understands what he’s singing about. The emotion is so…raw to me.
Enjoy.
