Believe - Josh Groban (Polar Express) - Peter Hollens feat. One Voice Children's Choir

[@PipsKay]

I am a retired teacher assistance and taught special needs children ages 3-5 and every year the day before Christmas break started we and our children wore pajamas to school and watched Polar Express with cups of cocoa and bells on red ribbons for each child..so as you might of guessed this beautiful song has a very special place in my heart..thank you beautifully done and the children's choir were amazing...I've ordered the CD and can't wait until it comes

[@immortalturtle6890]

I think I remember doing that before I started homeschool. It was great (currently 15)

[@PipsKay]

Immortal Turtle hold on to the memories, it keeps you...you

[@themelonsoup]

PipsKay My class and I went to see Polar Express in theaters! It was one of the most memerable times in my life.

[@immortalturtle6890]

PipsKay that memory was somewhere in my mind and you just revived it.

[@PipsKay]

themelonsoup that's amazing, when I was young at school I was in the school choir and we as a class one Saturday went to see the musical Oliver at a cinema and then at the school preformed some of the songs...I'll never forget that.. and I know you'll never forget seeing Polar Express with your classmates..very special

Accapella really suits the vibe of Polar Express That warm, comforting, happy and the feeling of everyone together.... It's so beautiful

[@ncard00]

This song just takes all focus away from the incredible polar express score.

[@dcstone]

One of the most iconic Christmas songs I have ever heard. 13 years since it's release, and brings warm memories today. Wonderful cover.

[@RosinaEmilyW]

It is so nice to hear a new version of a song from when I was younger. It is so rare to see a song as well done as this with so many happy faces. Thanks for cheering us all up, I can't say it enough.

[@PeterHollens]

I'm so glad you like it!! Thank you Emily :)

I'm already crying 😭 this song is my favorite Christmas song

[@cellychaaan7213]

I cried while listening to this. Such a beautiful song!

[@aldojoel4836]

Well, I am late to the party, but in all honesty this song is a representation of a lot of people's lives. For me it isn't. Dreams, wishes, magic, are always a part of my life. Beautiful moments with your families.... why can't we just hold on? Celebrate Jesus everyday, not only on this Holydays. Thank you Peter, for an amazing year of beautiful songs, have a Merry Christmas with your family. May God bless you P.S. My petition is a cover of The Chronicles of Narnia :) Edit: The music video was beautiful. The ending was so pure and innocent. I love it

[@PeterHollens]

Thank you!! I'm so glad you like it :) Merry Christmas!!

[@marydunavin1479]

Peter u made me cry! love this song. also yes please teach I love to sing and would very much enjoy learning. I'm 52 years old but they say your never too old to make your dreams come true. love you

[@PeterHollens]

That's the attitude!!! Looking forward to this =D

[@stopfabrications]

Peter, what a beautiful voice. A great gift from God.

[@wheezybreezy4651]

I had forgotten just how much I was in love with The Polar Express as a child and listening to this honestly brought back that wonder and joy I used to have every Christmas. I know it’s far from Christmas, seeing as it’s August right now as I type this, but seeing as my innocence as a child had been ripped away, this brings back comfort for this Christmas coming up. I had lost that glimmer but this video fixed that. Thank you.

[@Stouter]

This is my wife's favourite Christmas song, she's going to love it when I show it to her, thank you so much Mr. Hollens for doing a cover of this song

[@janetseidlitz5976]

Peter, I think you'd be an excellent teacher. I would love to see my kids learn from you. My daughter has watched all of Evynne's videos :) She and her brother can naturally harmonize, but they are really shy (both have autism and are smarty-pants). Right now, they are signed up to do a song together at their Community Transition Program talent show. Prayers are appreciated that they follow through and gain a little self-esteem.

[@madofdad]

The music from Polar Express always touches me

[@PeterHollens]

Yes! Glad you like it :)

[@clwilliams9276]

This song is truly my childhood. Ever since I was little, I made the tradition of watching The Polar Express every single Christmas Eve, as I slept. When I woke in the morning, every time the movie would be ending again. Then in I think 5th grade was when me and the rest of the chorus had to sing Believe for the christmas concert and I LOVED singing it. It quickly and easily became my favorite song. You definitely did it justice. Thank you so much.

[@valentina0220]

Peter, thank you soooooo much! You bring great joy year round and I especially love this one because of the message as well. Thank you!

[@lillycanaday9142]

This is one of my favorite Christmas songs, and I love Josh Groban, but when you do it Peter, it just about takes number 1 on my favorite Christmas song list. It is a constant battle between you and Josh for who is my favorite vocalist. I love you Peter! You are such an inspiration and blessing to everyone who watches your videos! Merry Christmas!

[@PeterHollens]

Haha I'm honored!! Thanks Lilly :D

[@hobbitgeek7588]

Brings back memories of being a kid. Thanks for making this.

YESSSSS!!! Please teach us! You have really inspired us (husband and wife singers)! Blessings to you, Evynne, and your dear children in 2020!

[@arseneloopy8556]

Cannot believe I haven't come across this before. Josh Groban is one of the few musicians that cant still sing so passionately that it brings tears to my eyes. This song is played constantly in my home during the holidays. This version had me misty eyed halfway through. A beautiful, beautiful song I cannot quite put into words.

[@JaredHalleyMusic]

Wow...chills. What an amazing way to bring in the Christmas weekend :) Thank you Peter! AND yes!! please do start teaching/making tutorials. Would be so helpful

[@PeterHollens]

thank you so much Lindsey!!!

[@jillthompson4810]

You, yes you, the one reading this comment, take a minute to apply this song to your life. I think this is a song, that even if it’s not Christmas time (listening to this in the middle of September) we can take the message and apply it to our lives. I know that when I listened to this song this afternoon I actually had some tears because I wasn’t having the best of days and this song reminded me to believe in myself today. So to whoever is scrolling through the comments and happens to read this, remember you are loved, cared for and have a purpose. Just remember to believe in yourself!

Polar Express has always had a place in my heart. I went to go see it on my first school field trip and it became my favorite movie, especially around Christmas time. And it became even more special to me when I sang THIS SONG in 3rd grade at my talent show. (I wore pajamas and a blue robe and when I got done performing, I pulled the bell out of my pocket and rang it and everyone went, "AWWWW!!") But anyways, this absolutely took my breath away. So much talent in one video. Thank you Peter Hollens and OneVoice Children's Choir for creating this beautiful rendition of an already wonderful song.

[@PeterHollens]

That is so sweet!! Thank you for sharing :) I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[@MoonstarGem1]

Ok, this literally gave me chills and made me tear up. I'm working on putting together a business that involves music and special ed kids, but have been doubting myself. I felt like this was saying I can really do it. This also makes me think back and wish I could have joined the Tampa Bay Children's Choir when I had been offered a position. Being able to participate in something like this...those kids will cherish these memories forever.
