Title: "O Holy Night" by CW at Slane Post by: Jack on December 21, 2008, 10:30PM Have I missed something along the way?
I was on another forum and someone posted a link to Josh Groban's "O Holy Night". A poster responding posted this link to CW's really beautiful version. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZ-8jYpa1-o (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZ-8jYpa1-o) It was obviously filmed at Slane at the same time as ANJ, but is not on that playlist. Can someone please enlighten me or give me a "Well,--DUH!!", and remind me where I missed it? Am I missing a DVD?

It was added to the German Dvd which is where the clip from ;)

I don't know how I managed to miss that thread back in the Spring of 2007 (Has it been that long?). At least it's seasonal and we can enjoy it again. :) Thanks again, Jack Title: Re: "O Holy Night" by CW at Slane Post by: Celeste on December 22, 2008, 03:34AM It was added to the German Dvd which is where the clip from Wait a minute. "Added to the German DVD"? Are you certain about that? I do know that the clip was placed online on a German Web site (from where it was transferred to YouTube), but was it in fact included with a German DVD? If so, which one? Note, for example, the listing for the Slane Castle DVD on Amazon.de. This is definitely the German version: http://www.amazon.de/Celtic-Woman-New-Journey/dp/B000MR9BVK/ The track listing does not include "O Holy Night." As far as I know, the magnificent Slane "O Holy Night" (which IMO is their best ensemble performance, ever) has (heartbreakingly) never been released on DVD. Do I have that right? Title: Re: "O Holy Night" by CW at Slane Post by: The Leprechaun on July 23, 2012, 08:23PM Does anyone know when in A New Journey they filmed this? I've always wondered but never known. Sometimes I wonder why it wasn't an Easter Egg on the Chirstmas Celebration DVD, but I guess that nobody wanted to program something few would know existed.
If you don't know what in Easter Egg is on a DVD, let me know. Title: Re: "O Holy Night" by CW at Slane Post by: Traveling Spaceman on January 03, 2014, 09:52PM I only discovered this recently. It's really odd to see the ANJ dresses and lineup, with Slane in the background, and they're singing O Holy Night. But it's gorgeous. I wish it had been on the DVD - or at least that someone would upload a better-quality video.
I wonder where the uploader found it. ??? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Blq1Yz4NJVc Title: Re: "O Holy Night" by CW at Slane Post by: The Impatient New Yorker on January 20, 2014, 03:55PM I only discovered this recently.

Title: Re: "O Holy Night" by CW at Slane Post by: Jonas on November 17, 2016, 07:10PM I remember when I heard them do it at Slane. I was so amazed how they were able to do it without a choir, since most other versions of the song include one. But then, on the ACC DVD, they included the huge choir on that song. To this day, I do not get why it was decided that the huge choir would join CW on O Holy Night when CW proved at Slane and on the ACC CD, that they don't need a choir for that song ???

Maybe they (David and management) were playing around with ideas at the time. If I recall, holy night and panis Angelicus where in ANJ as a promo for ACC |
