This whole video is wonderful. The performance of O Holy Night by Richard is absolutely amazing. Both their talent blows me away

This is a Christmas Memories special, which combines appearances made by the Carpenters on various Christmas specials.

This is not the actual Christmas portrait TV special that aired in December 1978

Thanks for saving me from wasting my time.

Yes, this is a Christmas video that was put together I believe in 2016 that combines Christmas music from both of their TV specials from 1977 and 1978. Also appearances from Perry Como's Christmas special and Dorothy Hamill TV special as well​@@robovac3557
