I thank the Goddess (I'm Wiccan btw) for allowing this enchantress of a woman to sing. I know she's singing about Christian ideals, but nevertheless, she's almost a goddess with that microphone.
we saw them Dec 5/08 AWESOME PERFORMANCE Husband HUGE ACDC fan and this one blew him away. Even my 19 year old daughter loved it. Me too.. Just amazing.
No. Just the one solo. I came up with it during the tour, and no-one else could pull it off, so they called me up. I have to say that standing next to Miss Cella was generally the high point of my evening.
*Sigh* I love this group... I'm going to see them in Indy on the 22nd.. it's been 5 years since the last time I got to see them live.. and I'm no less excited.. :)
I don't think she's better. It's a different type. Personally I prefer the children as it endears itself more and the sound is 'purer', whereas she lends a sort of raw emotion to it.
theres 60 members of TSO they cut it in half 30/30 coz they cant handle all the gigs that they have.. that girl is jennifer cella and she is playing with the east coast group...
thats not jennifer cella-TSO has 2 sets of singers and bands one for the east coast and one for the west coast-if you look at the video of one of the concerts at one place on the east coast and one on the west youll see they are all different singers
this video was shot in toronto but i dont know if thats considered east side of the US,this does not look ling jennifer because this girls hair is not as long and has a fuller face--jenn has long ass hair and is big boned-it just doesnt look like her like the other videos from CT ot new york
This video is over 10 years old, and yet I still come back to it every Christmas season to watch. Thank you for keeping this up! Jennifer Cella is missed in TSO and She has an amazing voice. I love this version so much better then the children on the CD.
Your post is old but it was studio recorded a long time ago with Jen singing it but still hasn’t been released on an album. They should’ve put it on the dreams of fireflies album 🤷♂️
jen calla is AMAZING! i LOVE this rendition of this song. my only wish is that there was a studio version of her singing this song on an album. i get chills every time i see this performed live.
The amazing Jennifer Cella!!! So happy she is back with TSO which she was on the NY tour, but she is killing it with the West TSO, so good. Happy she performs live here with her band, she is just amazing live!
I really wish they would record a version like this. I love the one with the kids but she just kills this song (in a good way) and elevates it into something else entirely.
Yes! TSO is a great live band, they rock. She does a great job on one of my personal favorites here. I saw them live for the first time last year and I can't wait to go back when they come back to Providence in mid-December!
I saw them in Greensboro Nov. 21st and it was one of the best concerts I've ever seen. This song was one of my favorites and the girl who sung it was amazing.
@EXPL721 I'm a HUGE fan of both bands, and I cannot agree with your statement. TSO has become a very natural continuation of Savatage (due to the fact Savatage hasn't released an album since 2001). TSO just doesn't have the similar sound and arrangements, but they have the same soul and heart of Savatage. If you can't sense that, then I'd assume you don't listen to much of one or the other. :l
This is a great version of this time but god she bends and breaks her voice like Brittaney and it's rather annoying. She has a great voice, but loose the pop Idol crap and sing. Also they need to speed the song up just a tad
all a matter of opinion. The kids are precious & I adore their version but THIS is stunning, heartfelt, full of passion and this gal is overflowing with talent. wow! the pipes!! Jenn Cella ROCKS!!
I'm not kidding - that's me. Look at the program for 2003. Or the credits on "Christmas Canon Rock" from "The Lost Christmas Eve". I played the solo. I am the only guitarist besides Pitrelli to have ever played a solo on a TSO record. Including Caffrey, and Skolnick.
Jennifer Cella was the one and only, and she's the one who took this from a children's song to a thrilling, operatic moment. But I got to say that Georgia Napolitano's version is nothing short of spectacular.
My God, she gives me goos bumps...what an amazing performance...This band is fantastic...
This is by far my favorite christmas song... I love this video and want to thank who ever recorded it.
nice to look at,beautiful voice, singing from the soul!!!!
can't go a Christmas celebration without this rendition of this tune, thanks for posting!
Beautiful
i agree.. they should make a studio version of this..
ive been a Cella fella from the beginning and she STILL drops my jaw and gives me chills no matter how many times i hear her own these notes!!
Absolutely awesome, Jennifer. You are a superstar.
oh God I'm in Love!!!!
maybe someone should start a faceook petition for this to be a studio version,with Jennifer of course
Such a great song, and fits the story perfectly!
This is still the greatest ever.
TSO always adds majesty to all the Christmas songs they interpret...thank you for posting :-)
Jennifer Cella was the best. Wish she'd come back.
Nice one really!!...
She is so gorgeous!!
I thank the Goddess (I'm Wiccan btw) for allowing this enchantress of a woman to sing. I know she's singing about Christian ideals, but nevertheless, she's almost a goddess with that microphone.
My God, not only is Jennifer a looker, she has one hell of a set of pipes on her! Superb... \m/ (:o)
Right on Rach! Me too. Don't get much better than this!
we saw them Dec 5/08 AWESOME PERFORMANCE
Husband HUGE ACDC fan and this one blew him away. Even my 19 year old daughter loved it. Me too.. Just amazing.
YEa, I agree... there needs to be a studio version of this rendetion!
spectacular
TSO is tremendous Jennifer Cella is absolutely incredible
No.
Just the one solo.
I came up with it during the tour, and no-one else could pull it off, so they called me up.
I have to say that standing next to Miss Cella was generally the high point of my evening.
I love this song. Nobody does like it jennifer.
The song still is beautiful in concert but jennifer owns it.
everybody starts somewere man lol. i love savatage i road crewed for them in fla for 6 yrs !!. tons of talent there man !!
*Sigh* I love this group...
I'm going to see them in Indy on the 22nd.. it's been 5 years since the last time I got to see them live.. and I'm no less excited.. :)
Well, you sing very well! It is always a great joy to see people using their talent for a great cause! Keep up the great work chickie.
As much as I love Jennifer Cella singing this ya gotta admit that Georgia Nepalitano does an equally amazing job!
WOW
get in line!!
I know rigght this is da bestttttt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Her name is Jennifer Cella. She isnt with TSO anymore though :(
Are You A Fan Of TSO And Y Dont Know Savatage?
me, too. When I saw them last November, I was stunned when all those ladies belted out
the Christmas Canon. Should be sung more quietly.
I don't think she's better. It's a different type. Personally I prefer the children as it endears itself more and the sound is 'purer', whereas she lends a sort of raw emotion to it.

That might not be true, She says that she might be back with TSO this year. I soooo hope that is true...
That's Alex Skolnick.
SAVATAGE!!!!
Is there a reason you post this on so many TSO vids? Wishful thinking on your part?
what*s her name????
Actually, no. That's me.
lmao!
@Satonica
Fictive character has nothing to do with this group.
This song sucks sorry if this song is your favorite
This video is over 10 years old, and yet I still come back to it every Christmas season to watch. Thank you for keeping this up! Jennifer Cella is missed in TSO and She has an amazing voice. I love this version so much better then the children on the CD.
6 years later, I am still coming back to this song.
Same here!! NOBODY can sing this like Jennifer Cella! This is definitely her song!!
Simply beautiful!
thank you jennifer for all you have done. you are beautiful and talented. keep up the good work
It's a shame she is no longer with the band. I really enjoyed her voice on many of the leads.
I love Jennifer's voice, I hope she goes solo or joins another rock band
I love TSO, their holiday and non-holiday music.
I wish they'd record this version on an album. The children are wonderful, don't get me wrong...but this one is so powerful.
It is on the Christmas Eve and Other Stories album
Your post is old but it was studio recorded a long time ago with Jen singing it but still hasn’t been released on an album. They should’ve put it on the dreams of fireflies album 🤷♂️
@@georgiaherrera3857 nah that’s the kids choir version
jen calla is AMAZING! i LOVE this rendition of this song. my only wish is that there was a studio version of her singing this song on an album. i get chills every time i see this performed live.
Such a incredible voice what talent great job Jennifer!!!!
OMG. What a song. Jennifer Cella is absolutely incredible. What a voice. What a gorgeous girl and what a performance
Wow, simply amazing. She's got such vocal power going into a great song. Thanks for posting.
The amazing Jennifer Cella!!! So happy she is back with TSO which she was on the NY tour, but she is killing it with the West TSO, so good. Happy she performs live here with her band, she is just amazing live!
Fantastic ... what a talent !
Thank you TSO for this performance and whoever recorded and posted it!
The woods are lovely dark and deep, But I have promises to keep. And many miles to go before I sleep. Love you TSO!!!!
this song is awesome..they are awesome!!!
makes it feel like CHristmas when i hear them...
Ah...last year at this time and once again it's TSO time! Can't get enough...must see again and again
I really wish they would record a version like this. I love the one with the kids but she just kills this song (in a good way) and elevates it into something else entirely.
totally agree!!!
Simply outstanding rendition. Thank you Jennifer Cella
OMG! Did you play the solo at the end of the track named, "O Come All Ye Faithful/O Holy Night" That one is my fave!! I think its brilliant!
Yes! TSO is a great live band, they rock. She does a great job on one of my personal favorites here.
I saw them live for the first time last year and I can't wait to go back when they come back to Providence in mid-December!
no one can sing this like Jen. They are all ok. She is awesome
This is so awesome. Wish this version was on Itunes
God, she's pretty
This is my 5th year seeing these guys live! Seeing them on Dec. 14th! Can't WAIT!!!
know whta you mean, she is perfect
@jb111082 Nothing exclusively Christian about love and kindness.
I saw them in Greensboro Nov. 21st and it was one of the best concerts I've ever seen. This song was one of my favorites and the girl who sung it was amazing.
That's rotten. She's awesome.

but THIS is stunning, heartfelt, full of passion and this gal is overflowing with talent.
wow! the pipes!!
Jenn Cella ROCKS!!
Jen Cella
oh ok i wasn't sure if that is her... of course i know her ;-) thanks for answering...
Chills! nothing more!
saw them in Providence, R.I. last nite just amazing. the light show is worth the price of admission alone.
im going to hartford civic center in a few weeks im in the 7th row on the floor i hope thats a great spot
I'm not kidding - that's me.
Look at the program for 2003.
Or the credits on "Christmas Canon Rock" from "The Lost Christmas Eve". I played the solo.
I am the only guitarist besides Pitrelli to have ever played a solo on a TSO record. Including Caffrey, and Skolnick.
i thought that was you taking that solo ...i even knew your name lol
listen to anything from the beethovens last night album. its like a blend of TSO and savatage.
She great singer 🎹🎸🎻🎼🎤🎶
these people put all they have into mtheir music. how can one NOT appeciate that????
Just curious, what do you mean by "bends her voice"?
Thanks for an explanation.
I want her voice! I bow down to the awesome control and vocal strength that is Jennifer Cella! She is what I aspire to be as an Alto!
she so talented it makes me sick. i would kill for her voice.
playboy playmate
Her voice is beautiful.. her crazy chicken head-bopping is insanity though..
I love this version! She has such a beautiful voice
if wasn't for savatage TSO will never be..
:)
There are 2 groups that tour around the country.
Love this version also..wish it was on the album
and you are a expert,I suppose!!!!
die weiber sehen gut aus aber der Rest ist SCHEISSE
Jennifer Cella was the one and only, and she's the one who took this from a children's song to a thrilling, operatic moment. But I got to say that Georgia Napolitano's version is nothing short of spectacular.
Chloe Lowery is good also
