  • This is one of my favorite Christmas songs ever, and I felt a need to make a video for it. This video is about peace on Christmas based in the place I love so much, New York City.
    I hope you guys like it, thanks for watching!

    This song is so beautiful, but sometimes makes me cry! I miss of my grandmother, my uncles, my father... They're living with God!

    The most under-rated Christmas song ever. John Williams has done it again.

    This song warms my heart so much. The part where they say "Star light, shine bright. See me through the dark night." Reminds me of overcoming my addiction to opiates. Such a beautiful song.

    Christmas 2020 was nothing like any other for me. Away from family for the first time in over 30 years. It is almost as if it never happened. It is usually my favourite time of year as a Christian. I am hoping Christmas 2021 will be with family.

    It is almost 3:00 a.m. on this hot summer night and had to think of my dear sister who passed away last year. This wonderful song reminds me of the good times, especially the Christmas season and our way of looking at home alone and laughing together ..... The songs Somewhere in my memory & Christmas Star make me very sad but at the same time very happy and hopeful since I know that we will see each other again in a beautiful place - maybe there will even be snow and this song will be sung by angels. Greetings to everyone and God's blessings.

    This song brings back so many memories of when I use to work at the movie theater at the time of this movie, Home Alone 2, way back when. I think of the smell and sound of the popcorn machine, everyone so happy and excited it was the holidays, great energy, and I use to go in the theater to listen to this song when it played and just reflect.
    They do not make movies or songs like these anymore. John Williams the composer made an Amazing song!! My favorite Christmas song.

  • @Mrphilharmonic
    @Mrphilharmonic 7 років тому +7

    I just LOVE this tune, the arrangement etc. Trust John Williams to come up with something this amazing. It's in Db, which means the Oboe has to play an Ab which is out of it's range!! I think Johnny recorded the orchestra in Eb (the Oboe CAN play Bb) and THEN transposed it using modern day technology to shift the pitch to Db so he could get the warmth of the Db key and the range for the kids to record the top notes. So if you're after a live performance (as I was), you have to use an English Horn to get the lower (out of range) Oboe notes. It took a long time but it was SO worth the effort as it is a BEAUTIFUL Christmas song.

    Here, here! Now that all our memories are at finger reach in the internet, people started to believe that the past was great, and the present world sucks.
