Marc Martel - O Holy Night (Official Music Video)

[@tomodonnell878]

He is (in my opinion) the most underrated singer in the world!

[@ToddandRaquiForrest]

+Tom O'Donnell ...and unknown, but to those few who know him, they really LOVE him.

[@bartschlief2574]

listen to david archuleta he has a really good cover on this song

[@Mr-R.R.]

"good" it's like asking us to downgrade from marc martel haha

[@MDHNYC]

Tom O'Donnell - Underrated yes, but I can't help but think of Freddie Mercury no matter what he sings! You want underrated? Check out "Sometimes" by Ours. Ours is a project by, just like Marc, a New Jersey native named Jimmy Gnecco. And check out Gnecco's version of 80's song "Take on Me."

[@ca8e8ac41]

I would love to hear him on the radio for sure as well as Jonathan young....but as much as I love jon, marc transcends most humans

[@joshygoldiem_j2799]

Crazy to think that this is his natural singing voice! Vocal coaches have said he must've worked hard for years before he started posting his Queen covers, yet this is how he sings in his day to day career. It's how he sang with Downhere before he started doing Queen. The dude is not just Queen or Freddie Mercury. He is Marc Martel.

[@torrifleming9891]

The Word that comes from the lyrics of this beautiful song reminds me of scripture, “In every Nation, every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that JESUS (YESHUA) is LORD! It’s a powerful song and takes a powerful voice to sing it with power. He did a wonderful rendition of this song!

[@Boogiee80]

awasome voice, you're not a copy of Freddie, you're like his son he was dreaming of :)

[@rawstarmusic]

That was a nice reply

[@meandyou917]

You are so right. After looking him up recently I thought so too.

[@heyitsmers8935]

very right! 😊

[@MegaSlowburner]

Beautiful sentiments Lukasz

[@mystic_hero8800]

More like the son he deserves

[@2Chabs]

I am very blessed by your gift. Thank you.

[@jester5019]

2:46 It's like Freddie singing that note. Marc has a wonderful voice, and although he will always have the Freddie comparisons, he has a FANTASTIC voice in his own right. Hopefully he gets more out of the Queen Extravaganza than just they guy who sounded like Freddie Mercury

[@whitevader007]

Awesome is that moment! Just a little bit of Freddy in this divine song. Properly done Marc, properly.

[@nunyabizness4892]

Jester 501 every artist admires another , it’s clear that Marc’s main influence was more than likely Queen . Every artist will tell you who their influence was and you’ll always hear it in their voice. You will always pick up what you hear the most.

[@artfulstories]

Nunya Bizness he didn’t delve into Queen until he was in his twenties. George Michael was one of his biggest influences in his teen years.

[@artfulstories]

Nunya Bizness Jeff Buckley was another big influence.

[@aplebian7097]

I have pressed the time stamp many times just to hear that one note. It's really amazing.

[@elizabethilling9387]

i heard your version of O, Holy Night, the other day on the radio. I no longer have a stereo, so came to yt to listen frequently. This is the most vocally appealing and worshipful version I've heard. Thank you so much Marc. When I can purchase a player, I will purchase your CDs.

[@diceblue6817]

How doesn't this have 50M views?

[@lorderoyals]

This song is not only valid at Christmas but it is valid for life and I dedicate it to those who feel only to those who suffer and to those who have a hope to live a better life

[@sinagaken]

I am blessed to hear this song and really found it beautifully sang at the peak of 2:45 onward. Merry Christmas .

[@shadokat]

Jesus Marc... You don't need to be Freddie Mercury or anybody else. Just be yourself. One of the best renditions of this song I've ever heard.

[@yehezkielmatawarimanik7752]

Well it's his real voice though

[@KennyChesney-u8z]

Absolutely.

[@lisahall2194]

Your voice is from heaven.I enjoy the comparisons, but you are destined for your own fame. I love you

[@TexasMom1776]

Marc could sing the phone book and make it sound stunning!! Gorgeous

[@whatsthatthing]

I closed my eyes, and suddenly it was Freddie singing!

[@kevmed64]

That climax high note at 2:47 was literally divine (and so reminiscent of Freddie)

[@Jackhammer69able]

This young fella has a deadset beautiful voice.

[@britanyaLV]

He's 39 years old at this video🤯

[@marcfan1822]

He really does. Click on the link to his channel below this video to find his entire Christmas collection and cover series, original songs and his Queen tribute work. Marc is an amazing versatile and gifted musician .

[@Jackhammer69able]

@@marcfan1822 I’ve seen some of his operatic performances, heard his solo stuff and his Queen work etc. 👍 He was born to sing. His intonation (to my ear) is as good as one can get!

[@artfulstories]

Amen!! He's my absolute favorite! If you do a Google search, you'll find a live version of this that's even more powerful, performed at The Ryman auditorium in Nashville. It blows my mind. 🤯😍

[@karenhill9239]

Merry Christmas Marc, thank you for your gift of music and this gorgeous song!

[@robinpresleywoodward]

Heaven came down…TY for the gentle touch to this angelic version

Joyeux Noel!

[@mvuorsalo82]

This is quite precisely what I imagine a christian Freddie Mercury to sound like... :)

[@Rahulsingh61095]

To me, he is the one, the only, Mr. Marc Martel. He is the master of his craft. I would assume that it's amusing for him only to a certain extent when people think of or mention Freddie Mercury when they hear him. Now, I am a fan of Freddie, I love Freddie. But, sometimes I feel that it's kind of unfair on Marc. I hope that it doesn't annoy him after a while as people do it most of the time. Special message for Marc : Thank you for bringing all these gems to us fans who are craving for some good, soulful melodies. I listened to your album "Impersonator" a few days back and I loved it. Take a bow, Maestro!

[@artfulstories]

Beautiful words. He says he’ll never escape the Freddie comparison, so might as well embrace it. “To be compared to one of the greatest rock vocalists ever is a pretty big compliment”, or something like that.

[@ThatllShowEm]

It's a double-edged sword, isn't it? To be compared to Freddie Mercury and use that comparison to any advantage, gets Marc locked into doing Freddie/Queen tributes or voice over work for the foreseeable future, or at least ties any notoriety he gains to being a Freddie Mercury vocal doppelganger. I think if you're watching these other videos, that aren't Queen covers, you know that Marc is capable of bringing so much more to the music industry. Hopefully he's not sitting on all of his own original music, and unsure of how it might be received by his fans. I know I'd love to hear it!

[@Rahulsingh61095]

@@ThatllShowEm Absolutely right. Me too!

[@tawanakoutny5408]

This is my favorite Christmas song. I knew when i saw he had recorded it, he'd do it awesome justice & then some. YEP, MARC NAILED IT!

[@suellen1971]

This is so poetic.... like an angel sighing..... then that high note at the end..... Freddie is alive! ... The goose bumps ...... Ohhh my...... ❤️❤️

[@kennavarela9961]

What a wonderful Christmas Gift! I just heard this rendition of one of my favorite Christmas songs for the first time in the radio. I looked it up immediately! That's as good as it gets.. voice of Freddie Mercury passed through the lens of the Christian view! Beautiful gift!

[@cooltheengines]

Very very nice!! You can’t expect any more out of a singer than this! simply amazing!! I also love that he picked out a song that expresses the true meaning of Christmas... The birth of Jesus Christ.

Can't hear it enough times. Brilliant.

💖💖💖My favorite Christmas song. Thank you for singing this with your voice God blessed you with and not making it a Freddie (no offense to Freddie) song. It felt like it was pointing us to Jesus...my Hero😊😊. When you sing like you it is way more special. Thank you.

[@judystahlman1620]

I don’t see how anyone can listen to Marc a not notice how he radiates the love of Christ. It shows in his eyes, smile and in his personality . He is an example for youth . He is a wonderful role model. Love you Marc.

Amazing. You are the incarnation of Freddie Mercury. Absolutely amazing

[@cstairs]

@Maria Bravo yes, he is the incarnation of Freddie Mercury. That is a compliment. There is no need to say anything negative to someone who pays someone else a compliment.

[@cstairs]

@Maria Bravo reincarnation is not a real thing, it is simply a figure of speech. Telling someone they sound like one of the greatest singers of all time is a compliment in the highest of honors. I think we can agree that you can go bother someone else now Karen.
