Good morning, Brian... Silent Night is a song I love and know well (in both English and German)... but O' Holy Night has been my favorite for as long as I can remember.

Brian England - My sentiments, exactly! The meaning of Christmas is to be honored and respected. The first time I heard Jackie sing on America's Got Talent, I was mesmerized. Listening to her singing Silent Night is the epiphany of the deepest meaning behind the celebration of Christmas.

Brian I celebrate Christmas for the same reason.  Even though we do not know the Date Jesus was born on, it is a birth that needs to be celebrated regardless of the day we celebrate it.  The celebration of his birth is what is important, not the day.  Without his birth we would not have the hope he gave us through his death.

Hi Brian,
Jackie Evancho is such an amazing talent. She developed the voice of a woman when she was still a child. I'm interested in following her career as she matures even more.  Silent Night and Oh Holy Night are my favorite holy Christmas songs. Jingle Bell Rock is my favorite fun Christmas song.
