The group seated behind him, which stood and sang the last chorus, was made of Southern Gospel royalty, going back decades. David's rendition is so affecting because he is a Christian, and believes every word and that comes across.
David Phelps!!!❤🎶 No words!!! One of the best singers...and he can hold a note for days! Worth checking out his solo stuff....chills!! He has only gotten better over the years!! Merry Christmas to you Fil and your family!!🙏❤🤗🌹🕊🎁
This is the original "O Holy Night". The difference here is that David rearranged it. The original is in much more structured. David takes his time and puts every bit of himself worshiping the Lord into it, which elevates it to the top. No greater version of this song exists. Thank you for reacting to this. I do hope you explore more of David Phelps music.
David is the best male vocalist on the planet and has been for the past twenty five years. I know...I have seen him live 11 times from the front row, I have been to his home for two Barn Bash events and have net his parents as well. There is no more talented, humble or gracious singer anywhere. The best in the world...
I am so glad you have heard now David Phelps. Whitney Houston considered him as the best tenor. His more recent works such as his classy rendition of I Have Nothing in the original key will charm you. His other songs of late like on his album Game Changer demonstrate his contemporary themed songwriting skills as well as his vocal delivery.
Houston, we have a problem! I requested the same performance for my Christmas series. I have to think about a replacement song. David is a phenomenal singer and he is filled with the Holy Spirit. This is my favorite rendition of this song. And props to Anthony Burger on the piano who was a brilliant pianist.
And you know what's funny...as soon as the singers behind him stand up, every "reactionist" that I have watched has the same reaction: they cry, get goose bumps, have looks of "oh wow," and usually have a huge smile on their faces. It amazes me every time I see their reactions! It puts a huge smile on my face. That's how we're going to react when we see Jesus, and Jesus uses this song to bring people to Him. It's undeniable!
I love David Phelps. You said youve never heard this song but my wife and I were married 18 years ago this Sunday (Dec 3) and instead of the traditional "Here Comes The Bride" she came down the isle to a real pipe organ and violin playing Oh Holy Night.
This song is a Christmas standard, nearly everyone has sung it, but David reminds me of those angels who appeared before the shepherd abiding their fields by night, announcing the birth of Christ.
I’ve listened to many reactions to this version and only3 acknowledge the absolute incredible talent of pianist Anthony Berger. Worth a review in itself.
Bill and Gloria Gaither are the hosts of this concert. They are true legends in Gospel music. Been around for many Decades. They have written many notable Gospel songs, including He Touched Me, Sinner Saved By Grace, and 8ecause he lives, but not Oh Holy Night. David has been a member of Bill's group the Gaither Vocal Band for quite a few years now. He is one of those Power Voices, and everyone says he is one of the Best Tenors in the industry , but his voice goes beyond that. But ill tell you pretty much anyone sing witn GVB is Top of thr line Power Vocalist. You should check them out sometime.
It's not theatrics, it's the Holy Spirit. This man is a born again Christian, praising and worshiping God. Jesus is the reason for the season. John 3:16
Thank you for reacting to this song!! The Gaithers have performed gospel music for many years and have their own television show!! There are many fantastic singers in this group! David has four children who sometimes sing with him!! Listen to David and daughter Maggie best singing water and also Agnes Dae! Merry Christmas!🎄
I'm very glad you discovered David Phelps!! The are some wonderful suggestions in the comments for more David Phelps: "I Have Nothing" (Whitney Houston), 'Hello Beautiful (original song on his 'Game Changer' album), 'End of the Beginning' (original song on either his channel or 'Gaither Music TV' channel. David has a very long career (since high school!) as singer, songwriter, and arrangement! Check out some more! You will not be disappointed!
This is the Gaither Homecoming, where people who have been with the Gaithers are welcome to come back, so they have a lot of talent there. Bill and Gloria Gaither started this group, and Gloria writes many of the songs. Wonderful.
The song O Holy Night is a worldwide christian christmas standard and church songbook standard. All David Phelps did was take the song to a whole new level never heard before and now new younger artists are attempting to re-create the David Phelps rendition but it's not the same. The venue David is singing in was produced by Bill and Gloria Gaither. They produce quite a few venues throughout the year and every year around Christmas time Gaither has what he calls the Gaither homecoming. And at these events they feature various phenomenal Christian singers.
Bill and Gloria Gaither have been doing Christian gospel music for years and often do big group gatherings. This is one of those gatherings and David Phelps gives this solo performance, though he has often been part of some quartets that perform under the auspices of the Gaither's organization. Astounding rendition of "O Holy Night" that David humbly pours himself into!!
Just beautiful! The choir was a fantastic surprise! Just made the song so much better. You need to react to PENTATONIX singing this...they just released a new version and it is the best I have ever heard them sing. They have all changed for the better. I think you will be surprised and happy. Just so amazing. Much love to you from Texas ❤
David Phelps is an Amazing singer.❤ Whitney Houston actually said David had one of the best voices she ever heard. David actually sang her song I Have Nothing
BRO, THANK YOU for reacting to my very favorite Christian male vocalist! Are you familiar with legendary Whitney Houston? Her song "I Have Nothing" is also covered by David Phelps. David, a tenor, is able to sing this song in the same key as Whitney Houston's! Also, you mentioned Bill and Gloria Gaither? David is a part of "The Gaither Vocal Band, and they perform, Live, a rousing version of "Let Freedom Ring", in NYC at Madison Square Garden. David Phelps has many many fans who have followed him for years, and many of those fans may Subscribe to your Channel, as I may! THANK YOU! And Happy Holidays!
Hi Fil. FYI…. PTX has dropped a live cover from VEVO of Seal’s Kiss From a Rose that is just stellar. Thought you might be interested in that and also they did a mashup of Pure Imagination/Christmas Time is Here that is unbelievable. Take Care❣️
My sister has special needs, so a lot of what she "watches" are things with songs. We had a vhs tape of the gaithers and David Phelps. She wore that tape out😁
OK Fable, I know some artist or labels are a pain in the you know what, dang its been over a year now since you have reacted to one of your favorite groups known as PTX. Pentatonix has been dropping new originals and covers. They just got thier 5th Grammy nomination for thier 7th Christmas Album. It's time to react to Pentatonix who owns Christmas music. Two of thier latest drops was "Kiss From A Rose (Seal Cover) which in my opinion will be nominated for next years Grammy. Also an Original wrote by Kirstie and Kevin called "Please Santa Please. I know you want to. Happy Holidays 9:09
You need to watch David Phelps most resonant high notes. You’ll get a full taste of what this man can do. C5 and C#5 are his money notes. Wanna hear a low song. Complete opposite….. do Moonlight by Beethoven. It’ll be in a barn setting.
Theatrics? Hmmm...don't think so. How could it just be an act when Almighty God, King of Kings and Lord of Lords is the Creator of us all. This is what we Christians call WORSHIP! And we dont just do it "this time of year." Its an everyday activity, believe that! Once you know Jesus Christ personally, you just cant stop worshipping Him! Please let Him enter your life, your heart, your whole being. He loves you, my friend!
Fil, David was the forth of the three kings, he brought hope. Mr Phelps, your mission, should you choose to accept it.... Fair to say as a young soprano singer I always had an organ in my ear. #QcumberSquad #DavidPhelps - Fil, I'm off back to the study.
Think about why you haven't heard of David. This is a 2000 live performance. You don't see enough people sharing this kind of music. The media for the most part tries to shame this. The Concert is a Gaither Christmas Homecoming Contert. Bill and Gloria are the organizers. They have written many contemporary Christian Music. The isn't one of their song though. It's their presentation.
I wonder what you’re thinking about. This is the traditional O Holy Night. We all know the words. On the Gather’s they sing in quartets etc., their music is beautiful.
Have you heard of Willie K? He’s from Hawaii (RIP). Can you take a look at his rendition of Holy Night. The title is Holy Night: Benjamin Cross and Willie K. There is also the recording which is so much better and powerful. He will also Incorporate the Hawaiian language. Hope you will enjoy it.
Christmas day should be every day for all religions If people could care without continuing ignorance and anger. I wish people would hear spirits. It is only a wish.
How dense do you have to be to click on my thumbnail with my HUGE face in it and then leave a comment like this after the fact instead of clicking off and going to find the video? You're truly as sharp as a marble, mate. Slow clap for you. 👏. 👏. 👏
He also paused right in the middle of the high note twice...why would he do that?...it inteferes with the flow musically and also interferes with the viewers anticipation of those beautiful high notes.
Why do you leave your mug on there? Do you believe that people want to see you? Sorry, you are wrong and that is exactly what I did. Went to another video after leaving my comment.
The best rendition of O Holy Night EVER. Somehow I always cry a river when hearing this song. Thanks Fil ❤
The group seated behind him, which stood and sang the last chorus, was made of Southern Gospel royalty, going back decades. David's rendition is so affecting because he is a Christian, and believes every word and that comes across.
So true!
I saw Mark Lowry behind him in a black coat and red shirt doing an awesome reaction. He wrote “Mary Did You Know” among other songs ❤

Fall on Your Knees or We Are The Reason David Phelps
Or if you don't mind it not being a strictly Christmas song, David Phelps End of the Beginning is one of my favourites? 🤗❤️
I chose it too😂
I love watching people's first reactions to hearing David Phelps!
Me, too!
