After seeing the movie "Midnight Mass" i rediscovered this beautiful song! And i'm 70 years old now! I'm hearing this for the third time this day now....
Thanks for being a fan!! I just wanna appreciate you in particular for being a fan and you should keep supporting me it brings me so much joy that I'm able to put smiles on your faces and hearts.🌻❤️
Neil Diamond was in 1977, four days on Tour in Netherland.there were problems with the Hammond organ (110 Volt America-Europe 220 Volt) I'm approached by Lou van Rees Management for a solution to my Hammond Rent.After four days I got my B3 Hammond returned with Fire spots of Cigarettes.It frustrated me.They have me removed me from the Neil Diamond Fan Club because I had this listed on their site.Never Apology of Neil Diamond ;-(
I used to jump on my bed listening to this man sing.. I was a kid.. 51yrs old now and I still love him so much.. can't really jump on the bed now.. I need to make into work tomorrow.. haha, but in my heart I'm that little kid.. jumping and yelling out the words. This guy is so Great!!!
Me too! I would walk down a staircase when I was little dancing to this song for my poor grandmother who I asked to sit listen and watch …I could tell she did it for me .. holding back her yawning! I loved this song sooo much!!
Greatest Singer and Songwriter of all time! Neil asks that you not listen to the lyrics or get hung up on the actual meaning, but he only asks the listener to 'feel' the spirit and secondly the sound!
Thomas L I wish you had the honor to see him! I remember camping outside to get tickets at the Met Center in MN (now the MOA)! and waiting in line at Daytons to run to buy tickets. Fun times. on-line sales stopped that fun! well at least you can watch vids

During the first few seconds I was going to comment along the lines of lamenting how even Neil's wonderful voice was fading by this stage ..... then I realised I had physical goosebumps ...! What a thrilling performance. Sorry Neil, I take it back. Still amazing!

Calling the sun in the dead of the night and the sun gona rise in the sky to touch a lame man who can’t walk upright and that lame man is going to fly! Powerful song!!!
This live performance by Neil Diamond shows the energy, passion and power with which he celebrated his songs! One of the greatest entertainers of the century with a unique voice that touches you deeply! Unique!
Neil Diamond rates right up there with with the top artists Elvis, Tom Jones, Springsteen, so many others that have that magic. So wish I got to see Neil Diamond live year ago his music is eternal. I pray he is well with ❤
Love these lyrics sung and written by the one and only Neil Diamond Holly holy eyes Dream of only me Where I am What I am What I believe in Holly holy Holly holy dream Wanting only you And she come And I run Just like the wind will Holly holy (Sing) sing a song (Sing) sing a song of songs (Sing) sing it out Sing it strong (Sing, sing, sing, sing) Yeah Yeah Call the sun in the dead of the night And the sun's gonna rise in the sky Touch a man who can't walk upright And that lame man, he gonna fly And I fly (fly) Yeah, and I fly Holly holy love Take a lonely child And the seed Let it be Full with tomorrow Holly holy (Sing) sing a song (Sing, sing) sing a song of songs (Sing, sing) sing it out (Sing) sing it strong (Sing, sing, sing, sing) Yeah Yeah Call the sun in the dead of the night And the sun's gonna rise in the sky Touch a man who can't walk upright And that lame man, he gonna fly And I fly (Fly) yeah God, I fly Holly holy dream Dream 'bout only you Holly holy sun Holly holy rain Holly hol' Holy love Ha Holly hol' Holly holy love
As a big Neil Diamond fan I have probably watched this video 50 times. I just noticed at the 3:20 mark Neils guitar magically changes to a black guitar, then back to the original guitar. Wonder why it took me this long to notice.
No it is not a gospel song, the love between a man and a women gives the slinger a religious feeling. It has nothing to do with christ or so. Christians are so naive... when someone says 'holy' they think it must be about god or so.
@@TwitterAR3 i claim it is not really about god. In an 1971 interview he talked about this song. It’s about the love for a woman, it has nothing to do with god
The first time I saw Neil diamond he was singing this incredible song set in a revival stage that gave me chills. I’ve since seen him at concerts and never in many many years lost my love for that gorgeous man and his music.
No doubt about it, there's a sharp edge in a lot of his songs. He could have been a powerful Rocksinger as well, but he was smart enough to hook up with the catchpenny genre. In contrast to M. Bolotin (aka Bolton) no need to redirect from Rocker ll Crooner.
Simply one of the greatest entertainers of my lifetime! I saw him at the Greek back in '71 & '2. Also saw John Denver there at that time. Just goes to so you you , you don't have to have a fast moving song with lots going on. Less is More as they say! Great power ballad no doubt.
Neil Diamond singing his famous song HOLLY HOLY at the Greek and the way it moves his audience as well as anyone that listens. to it ...... can not put feel the POWER OF GOD'S LOVE ( that which is ) . Thank you Neil for writing this great song which has become a TRUE REFLECTION of GOD 's LOVE in the world!
Thanks for being a fan!! I just wanna appreciate you in particular for being a fan and you should keep supporting me it brings me so much joy that I'm able to put smiles on your faces and hearts.🌸🤍
Merry Christmas to all! I play this song for happiness and Neil gives his heart. Ive loved Neil since forever his music gets into my heart! A very wonderful man!!

It’s 2024 and I’m so sad to see he’s retired. What a career!
played this at my father’s funeral. I now know why my father loved Diamond. Children need to listen and appreciate their parents more. I love you Dad
Dittos! Played same at my Dads. ❤
Same here. I want this song played at mine. As well as another one bites the dust.
@@patricksavage922 hahaha! I love that.
it's going to mine too!
blessings aplenty to you
I'm a grown man in my early 60's...with tears in my eyes.
At least English is your first language.
What's my excuse?
:-)
I'm a 66 year old male and just have "discovered" this song; very nice, relaxing & good for the soul; love it.
I’m almost seventy five and this song brings to to tears every time. Also I Am I Said. He is amazing!

@@noahmills.6643 Stop scamming people. You are not Neil Diamond. Neil is god - you are pathetic
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Totally agree 💯
My one regret is never having the opportunity to see him in concert live.
Me too!! Thank you Neil!??
I agree....Neil Diamond and a number of other classics artists.
I used to jump on my bed listening to this man sing.. I was a kid.. 51yrs old now and I still love him so much.. can't really jump on the bed now.. I need to make into work tomorrow.. haha, but in my heart I'm that little kid.. jumping and yelling out the words. This guy is so Great!!!

I'm 51 and I still jump on the bed, go girl
Definitely jumped on my bed, singing to his 8 track, using my hockey stick as a microphone!
Thank you for making me happy with this comment! So Awesome!
This mans voice is amazing. Ive always loved most of his songs, but this one is my all time favorite.
Everytime that man stood on any stage, he owned it like a god
He felt the power of his voice and what God expected him to do.
This man has got an amazing voice and some stellar songs. This one in particular is one of my favorites of all time.
Wunderbar. Niemand ausser Neil Diamond soll Neil Diamond singen. Seine Stimme ist einzigartig. Danke
Greatest Singer and Songwriter of all time! Neil asks that you not listen to the lyrics or get hung up on the actual meaning, but he only asks the listener to 'feel' the spirit and secondly the sound!
I had never heard this song until I watched Midnight Mass. I been listening to it all morning such a beautiful song by Neil Diamond.
Welcome! Glad you made it!
Amazing series too by the way - wow.
Same here! Such an amazing song in an amazing series!
Me too. I’ve heard this song before but never knew it was Neil Diamond!
Same here,,,, had to rewind it again to hear it,,,a great song for a great scene,,,,
God I’m 25 but I wish he could still tour I’d love to go see him!
Age dont matter, he's the best ALWAYS!

If you don't feel this then you are bereft of a soul. INSPIRATIONAL.

This Is My Favorite Neil Diamond Song. Thank you, Mom and Dad, for introducing me to this song.
Holy Shit, what a performances!!! This is almost a religious experience!!!

Same - although it's more remembering the 70s 😊
Been listening to Neil since 1975 and his music and voice are timeless.. Nobody should sing Neil Diamonds songs but Neil
I agree...they are his and they are him! Only one Neil and he his the absolutely the BEST!
Tell that to the millions upon millions that do it at ball games...I think we can give THEM a pass...
Everyone can sing Neil Diamond's songs. The great thing is; no one sings Them better than he does.
Saw Neil in Boston he was and is incredible gives me the chills you rock neil❤. Kathie
This has made the hair on the back of my neck stand up - and had done for years!! Fabulous!
Same here...I just love his songs...gives me goose bumps❣️. He’s so wonderfully awesome🥰

Beautiful. Heaven on earth.
Seen him live in Adelaide 2013 (I think). The best concert I have ever seen. Humble and a brilliant entertainer @neildiamond
Neil on form with this magnificent song Honey Holy Loved it.
My father is really the spitting image of this man
This is a awesome song for church. Because Neil Diamond is singing to God!! I love this

Neil works so hard to make us all happy. He puts everything in his writing and singing what an amazing entertainer. 🙏♥️🌹
What a showman . What a show. Thank you Neil Diamond for all your beautiful music.

Nicht mehr zu übertreffen,Wunderschön.Danke Neil.
Amazing performance. Not a person there not on their feet into the song. He builds it up and explodes
I just can't seem to stop listening to this song!!! It's been a while but when I heard this it took my breath and I just can't stop....😳 ✌🙏💜
An entire Bible revival packed into one song...the incomparable Neil Diamond...God Bless you Neil for never forgetting your roots.
Ok so it is a gospel song. In a way.
No it is not a gospel song, the love between a man and a women gives the slinger a religious feeling. It has nothing to do with christ or so. Christians are so naive... when someone says 'holy' they think it must be about god or so.
He wrote this about the LOVE of his woman at the time. He claims it's not really about God?
@@TwitterAR3 i claim it is not really about god. In an 1971 interview he talked about this song. It’s about the love for a woman, it has nothing to do with god

Whoever game a thumb down should question their life
Wow! Neil Diamond never ceases to amaze me. What a musician!
My mother loved neil diamond ❤
The first time I saw Neil diamond he was singing this incredible song set in a revival stage that gave me chills.
I’ve since seen him at concerts and never in many many years lost my love for that gorgeous man and his music.
My favorite song by my favorite artist, Neil Diamond is the best.
Still brilliant
this song and.. Soolaimon among others they have so much hidden rock in them ! Neil Rocks FOREVER. God bless him.
No doubt about it, there's a sharp edge in a lot of his songs. He could have been a powerful Rocksinger as well, but he was smart enough to hook up with the catchpenny genre. In contrast to M. Bolotin (aka Bolton) no need to redirect from Rocker ll Crooner.
One of the great performances
Neal diamond had the best band. He is the best and his shows are perfectly put together.
He is just great singer , nothing to compare with... He is the Best... !!!! Just love him sings..
Who's here after watching Midnight Mass?
My favorite singer
Simply the best of his time. I went to four of his concerts over a number of years, sorry if you did not! Stand up!
I love that there are older people and younger people and women and....he's a universal talent!
My parents were huge fans so I grew up listening to Neil Diamond
Got to see him in concert in 1996. Amazing singer
Such a tremendous artist absolutely 💯 love ❤️ his music & outstanding live.
