Charlotte Church, National Orchestra of Wales - The Prayer (Live in Cardiff 2001)

[@kapusanetwork]

For me, the best version of this song. Even better than the original singers. The song is so perfect for them.

[@krisriyanto1763]

I agree!!!

[@awankurniawan5267]

Indonesia, you are here! Yassh!

[@mitsumus4495]

Absolutely agree with you. To me best version of all.

[@yolandatan4578]

Yes, the best rendition I have ever listened!

[@debrasirvio7019]

I agree

[@cheryl8956]

Oh Charlotte, come back, we're missing that beautiful voice.

[@AbelKAcheampong]

One of the greatest duets ever. It left me with a touch of Heaven. God bless you very much, Josh and Charlotte.

[@BPS11111]

Yes! "A touch of heaven"!

[@elsablue54]

So true! When we are all together in revelation the Lord God gives us a new song. If this is beautiful like this what will the song God gives us be?

[@AbelKAcheampong]

Elsa, this song, together with all other positive songs are God given. Because, there is nothing positivity about Satan. Asking for God's continued blessings to everyone who is spreading positivity out there. Anything that drives people to God in a good manner is positive, and anything that makes us reflect on the word of God in a positive manner is also positive. Any song that brings married couples together in a positive way is also positive; and any song that improves godly relationships in acceptable ways in the eyes of God, are all positive, and songs that help to transform relationships from bad to good, and unrighteousness to righteousness, in ways that God will accept, are all also positive. Praying that the Lord God help musicians worldwide, in order that they release songs which will improve society and lift the name of the Lord, like this song that Charlotte and Josh are singing, among others. There are many ways that God gives songs to people. Some come through special revelations like dreams and visions and trances. For some, God also inspires the writers, directly from Scripture, and they write. And while for some, the writers use life issues and nature (or creation), which all the positive ones are all inspired by God. Music communicates to humanity greatly, so, we welcome all the positive ones, all to the glory of God, and unto His great name.

[@AbelKAcheampong]

In light of this particular duet song, 'The Prayer', it is a Gospel song, which had been sang by renowned Gospel musicians like Donnie McClurkin and Yolanda Adams before. Celine Dion had also sang it with Andrea Bocelli before, and had also sang it with Josh Groban as well before. And my search tells me that, Celine Dion and Andrea Bocelli first sang it, all the way back in 1998, and it was originally recorded for a movie titled, 'Quest for Camelot', and which was also featured on their albums in their song categories. And the song generally, is a very great song with very powerful lyrics. My advice to you is that, keep on exploring, keep on asking questions, and you are going to be a better person, your gifting(s), be reshaped, and your calling(s), fulfilled. So, keep on seeking in the right places and from the right people, and your hopes and aspirations, your dreams and your plans, and any other positive thing that you seek in life, are going to be fulfilled. Don't be discouraged by your limitations or short comings. Keep on keeping on and with God, and one day, looking back, you will realize how far God had brought you, and you will be fulfilled in your life journey, and be satisfied in your achievements for eternal rewards. And in case you want to be my friend for us to explore on your issue further, then you can reach out to me on my social media handles. And you can better reach me on WhatsApp or on Telegram on [phone]. The Lord God Almighty bless you on every side, and maintain the blessings upon your life forevermore. Amen.

[@sussi-hn5fj]

This is by far the best version ever of this beautiful song. Charlotte is great hitting the high notes, and Josh singing amazing as usual complimenting Charlotte's beautiful voice. Heaven's angels probably love listening to this too. God bless them and us all Amen. 🙏✝️❤

[@mickpayne6708]

I love Charlotte from an old tonyrefail boy to soon forgotten good on yer.charl.

[@jeannecarpenter6204]

Without a doubt the best duet ever of this amazing song. They were both made for it! Charlotte does it best with Josh Groban.. So many try but she's the best!

[@andrewg0481]

For me, this is the best duet version of all time for the song, The Prayer. This really moved me. Godbless you both.

[@HelenNichol-u1p]

So agree! Would love to see them both do another duet like this!

[@allenjones3130]

I'd forgotten what a great singer Charlotte Church is!

[@BPS11111]

i agree with all who feel this is absolutely the best version of this beautiful song. Exquisite. So moving in their perfect female and male perfection together.Thanks and love.

The best performance by Charlotte Church ever

[@HelenNichol-u1p]

Charlotte please come back to classical singing. Your voice has given me so much comfort x

[@Dan-yw9sg]

Of all of the versions performed by various singers, this absolutely has to be the best arrangement! When I listen to any of the others, I find myself thinking there should have been a high note there, or more vibrato or wherever. They just don’t compare! A magical moment for you and Josh!

[@wilburfinnigan2142]

Suggest you check out Lucy and Martha Thomas's version ....Lucy is a better singer than Charlette and she sings this song with her 13 year old sister Martha.... Nobody sings like Lucy and she is now 2022 just 18 years old.....

[@emilu1954]

Lea Salonga had a duet with Josh Gorban. I think she sang it very very good.

[@YusofPillay-qt7xd]

Indeed the best performance by Charlotte Church ever

[@TheVixchan]

Agree. I heard quite a few renditions and I always find myself comparing those performances to Charlotte Church and Josh Groban. They are the best in my mind.

[@PaulWashington..]

Love you Jesus of Nazareth.

[@antoinettemanfra1412]

Both are very very gifted with Beautiful voices from Our Lord 🙏 AMEN 🙏💕

[@Dan-yw9sg]

I come back here occasionally to listen and reflect on the state of the world. At times like these with all that is going on, it gives me comfort. We all need to find “that place of safety”. Thank you Charlotte and Josh for such inspiration after these many years. God bless you both!

[@mikemeyerphotopro]

Absolutely the most beautiful song/performance of all time. It makes me cry every time. Josh is so amazing and just enhances Charlotte immensely!!!

[@gloriaescano2417]

The best version. I play it over and over again. Love it.

She did so flawless performance

[@YusofPillay-qt7xd]

Have being a huge fan of hers she's not appear in a long time truly amazing voice

[@dhightone6755]

It seems like both singers are able to closely match their singing vibrato rates, which is amazing. For example, listen to the note at 2:46 to 2:48.

[@inrimaurent8578]

I love you both ❤❤❤❤

[@leecowell8165]

She has tremendous vibrato in her voice. Reminds me of Roy Orbison. This is beautiful... I've been listening to both of them since they were kids. Incredibly talented...

This is a fabulous arrangement of this beautiful song. Charlotte Church is one of the saddest stories in music. She was so mistreated by her greedy mother that she threw away her incredible gift of singing!

[@MichaelGunner123]

OMG! I never knew but have always wondered about her. God Bless her.

[@Raman21166]

I always fall in love with this song especially when this rendition shows its natural brilliance come out from Charlotte and Josh.

[@WallasGirl]

THE BEST DUET AMAZING, PURE TALENT THANKS CHARLOTTE FOR YOU GOLDEN VOICE

[@YusofPillay-qt7xd]

Charlotte church shine and she's well absolutely brilliant her voice is simply amazing and awesome performance by Charlotte Church was really awesome

[@Redlouie]

I'm Welsh. Take away any bias, this is the best version of this song ever recorded. In case you are unaware, Charlotte Church is around 15 years of age in this rendition with the National Orchestra of Wales. Both Josh Groban and Charlotte are outstanding as is the orchestra.

[@cathymccd]

I had this version and song played as I walked up the aisle on my wedding day nearly 3years ago.my favourite song and version ever.stunning.josh groban is outstanding live in concert also

[@JaneDoe-ci3gj]

15, wow! Great info thanks👍

[@lgempet2869]

I agree with you that this is the absolute BEST version of this song ever to be done & I’ve heard a fair few. I’m not Welsh but came to this conclusion all on my own....you aren’t biased.👍🏻😊

[@timnyapming8114]

Both Charlotte Church and Josh Groban are amazing. Is there a 2020 video for this song?

[@mitsumus4495]

100% with you there. Best version of all time. There’s something so special here, a purity which other singers just didn’t portray.

[@quantumnature514]

So incredibly beautiful! Just magical!

[@docphy]

Every time I watch this video I am amazed when you hit that note at 3:00. It doesn't get any better than this.

[@sufenta67]

A WOT moment!!! I love Josh's look immediately thereafter....a WTH was that??? She just smiles....

[@docOld55]

G#5, which is high-ish for a mezzo-soprano. Arias written for mezzo's are normally from about G3 to A5 (G#5 is a half note lower than A5), and mezzos can usually reach a couple of notes higher. Yeah, Charlotte's vocal range is Mezzo-Soprano.

[@tarashuford4409]

She is amazing. Its definitely a wow moment.

[@TimoBrown79]

She was absolutely amazing. Unfortunately money and fame destroyed her.
