This woman acts queenly without the queenly attitude. She's very impressive on her own way, and she doesn't need a crown because she's already wearing an invisible one .
this woman....i wonder if william looks at her and thinks...when i chose you, not even i could know how completely you would fulfill and radiate my life...the song, the simple musical message, the stillness, the whole scene is absolutely mesmerizing...
A very late reply, but have you seen the way William looks at her, Oh he knows how lucky he is to have her beside him and their love for each other it's plain to see. Their beautiful children are a testament to their love, they are both really special people.
How proud the people of the UK must be of the Duchess of Cambridge, Kate. It is very un-nerving to play the piano before such an audience. The pressure is immense, especially when the entire world is watching. It wasn't a difficult piece but she did it beautifully. She's endlessly talented. As always, she was grace under pressure and I admire her and William very much. Much love from America.
Kate's playing is like the way she carries herself as Duchess: sweet, steady, not a beat out of place, not overpowering but perfectly complementing and supporting everything around her yet sounding beautiful in its own right
@@jordann96x not sure why you’re cringing, but I feel like I should say there are lots of ways to be powerful as a woman :p Kate seems to be one of the few people able to inhabit the elusive double standard imposed on women- strong but not looking too strong, glamorous but humble, relatable but uncomplaining, etc. People shouldn’t expect women to act a certain way, but Kate manages to meet western society’s ideal of a female public figure, so more power to her.
She is lovely human being. Very down to earth. And she is giving so much around and to all of us. She’s gonna be a fantastic queen. I will be proud to call her our queen one day.
Oh ! Dear Catherine , You have just made this old grandma cry tears of sadness and joy , I want to thank you 💕 for all your hard work and loyalty to Queen and Country . Bless your kind and generous heart .
Catherine the Princess of Wales is so talented, beautiful, caring and compassionate truly a Queen in waiting, our late Queen knew she would keep the monarchy safe, God bless her ❤❤
YES, AND Q2B CATHRINE'S PARENTS ARE THE EPITOMY OF CLASS AND GRACE. IT'S LIKE THE STARS ALIGNED TO BRING KATE AND WILLS TOGETHER WITH THE BACKING OF HER FAMILY AND HIS. CAN YOU IMAGINE KNOWING YOUR DAUGHTER, SISTER, 'IS GOING TO BE QUEEN' SOMEDAY, AND HOW THEY NATUARLY FIT RIGHT IN WITH WILLS FAMILY. THEY THEMSELVES ARE JUST AS IMPORTANT IN BOTH OF KATES AND WILLS LIFE. ENGLAND GOT REAL LUCKY X 5 WITH THE ADDITION OF THE MIDDLETONS INTO THE ROYAL FAMILY AND MOST DESERVED...GOD BLESS OUR QUEEN, AND THE INTIRE FAMILY...HAPPY CHRISTMAS FROM AMERICA, AND MAY THE LIGHT OF LOVE AND HEALTH SHINE ON YOU. AND STAY SAFE OUT THERE...
I watched the engagement interview of William and Catherine again recently. He spoke with absolute certainty when he said she would be a smashing success. Can't believe our luck having her in that role. And you can see very clearly how much they love each other.
Somehow the Brits & Commonwealth have struck gold again. Catherine is pure magic. Made of honor and duty w a selfless heart. She lives in full service to country & queen.
This woman is so talented She did a great job. I loved the smile at the end that Tom Walker and Catherine turned and smiled at each other. As he said She nailed it. The Royal Family shoul all be so Proud.
I loved the look she gave him at the end of the song. That humble, emotional smile. What a song. It's so moving and helps us remember those who are hurting tonight.
Your comment is just perfect!! I too noticed that look at the end, they did a marvelous performance!!! I’m in tears because this year my little brother isn’t here 😢 she did absolutely amazing, she’s a very inspirational woman/mother/wife!!! Sending you all love during this holiday season and Merry Christmas!!! 🎄 ❤️
Back here for Christmas 2023... for those who can't be here... Stuey (Smiley) my special angel with your Dad, Grandpa, Granny Sue, Granny Margaret and our beloved pets. Till we all meet again ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I couldn’t agree more. Every time she shines, I think of Middletons. And makes strive to be a better parent. I also admire William for being so smart and lucky and finding this beautiful human as his better half! What a gorgeous couple they make!!
What a beautiful performance! And Catherine is just perfect. Humble, immensely talented and beautiful beyond words. I'm sure her children were so proud watching this. They're so lucky to have a mother like her, and the whole Royal family too. What a gift this woman is. I'm not British, but I adore her so much.
Cathrine prooved herself to be such a modest artist, she simply did the job without wishing to be in the spotlight. Beautiful voice, touching interpretation. I loved this video!
Your one word is enough. Love your videos Jesus. Another commenter (Ally someone) elsewhere wrote: "Catherine just blew Meghan out the window" ...which I thought was also perfect.
Kate's Pianist Playing Reflects Herself, beautiful , very calming, and a blessing to all who adore her. Thank you, Duchess of Cambridge & Tom Walker. To think , this was first shown in 2021... the year my sister had passed. I hold so much respect for Kate. My sister was my seventh family member to pass during the then covid restrictions. I was sore, angry, and became mentally tormented. Due to Kate's Caring Attitude To Ward's All People Who She Comes In Contact With,- Together With This Song , _Saw The Beginnings To My Journey Of Self Healing . ❤
@@cfantasticseeallgood So rude and unnecessary when both the song and the performance has been so meaningful to so many people, especially those who have lost their loved ones. You should be ashamed
Being from Canada I had no idea who Tom walker is but absolutely LOVE this song. Lump in my throat for the Royal family and especially the Queen with first Christmas without Prince Philip. I have lost family members and know the loss felt especially that first Christmas. God bless to all missing someone at their table this Christmas as well.

Wow just seen this on TV Kate your amazing very talented. I lost my mum last year on the 2nd Dec layed to rest on the 23rd Dec. This brought tears to my eye. Such a wonderful song.
Just lovely. There’s no other way to describe her except to say she’s truly impeccable. She possesses so much grace, dignity, humility and warmth. I never knew she was also a talented musician. She’s mesmerizing.
Dear Duke and Duchess, you two have restored the faith in the monarchy, the faith in a beautiful marriage, the faith in a beautiful and healthy family, and above all restored the faith in using your status to restore human kindness and empathy! In a world full of hatred and darkness, thank you both for your light! God bless you two and your beautiful family!
Oh Lord, my mum is been gone for 9 years now but this song brought tears to my eyes. She would have been 65 years on the 4th of December. Thank you Catherine and Walker for this beautiful song. Merry Christmas.
She never ceases to surprise. She is an amazing person, wife, mother and servant to her people of the UK. She has shown again and again she serves her family and the people of the UK but does not expect to be served. I have the utmost respect for Kate.
I felt like this song was for me. My husband died this year and I've had a period of time where I can't cry but this song opened the floodgates. Thank you and Merry Christmas!
I absolutely love this!! Made me cry. They will never have a better princess than Kate. She is so classy, beautiful, caring etc. I just love her!! And his voice is beautiful!!
What a great voice Tom has - love it. And I also so love that Kate isn't above it all and just running the show - she's right there supporting the artists, literally! I've always liked her but this I found especially touching.

This comment is VERBATIM what another person posted, under a different name. Are all these comments on how great Kate is, being generated by 'bots, or people being paid to create those comments?
You can feel the love Catherine is trying to convey through her performance. She tries so hard to bring healing whilst others try so hard to bring division and animosity. Well done Catherine.
Oh. That little smile at the end got my eyes leaking. What a fantastic thing to do. It's a beautiful song that speaks to all of us who are missing people we love.
Good evening,. Name: Henry Kurt. . Excursion location. . Bremen Germany In the story, the two beautiful girls are my life. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year .. Nice to meet you
I am absolutely blown away by this piece. Not only is the track just truly wonderful, the artistic talents of all coming together - not least our most incredibly gifted secret pianist Duchess of Cambridge! Hairs are stood bolt upright on the back of my neck listening to this and the words have all the more resonance to me as we lost my heroic father last year!
I lost my dad on Tuesday. It was my eldest daughters wedding on Wednesday. Bitter sweet, im numb. Someone asked what I wanted for Christmas, I said nothing. But I want my dad. God bless you and your family Ian x
9 days ago, my grandmother died. 4 days ago, I was in a store when this song came on and I heard it for the first time. I stopped in my tracks and burst into tears. Today, Christmas Eve day, we held a virtual celebration of life for her. Just now, this video came up on my Instagram page. Strange coincidences. This is silly, but I feel like this was a gift from her to me. Thank you, duchess Kate and Tom Walker, for helping us to remember and celebrate those who can’t be here.
This was my first time hearing this song and I found this song to be very moving. I live in the US and I lost my grandmother the Tuesday before our Thanksgiving. I find that these types of songs are very rare because they aren’t happy and bouncy, but it’s a feeling that needs to be acknowledged. Bless them for acknowledging those of us who are grieving.
I had a similar experience when my grandfather died Christmas 1999. It was sad as he wanted to see the millennium and only became ill the week before Christmas. He was buried on New Years Eve and getting into the car to go the funeral John Lennons Imagine was on the radio. Then after the funeral get in the car again to go to the grave and it’s on… and a third time going home. That song now always reminds me of the day. I was only 9, and it wasn’t as if the song was only released…
Doesn't sound silly at all, she sent it to you a second time to make sure you got her message, Bless you and have a Happy Christmas remembering your dear Grandmother.
Duchess Catherine didn't take the limelight away from Tom Walker once. She was playing quietly in the background without looking into the camera directly once. I for one thought it was a lovely gesture that showed just how dignified and beautiful Catherine is within her heart.
Absolutely tear jerking sung & piano playing perfect. I loudly applaud both performances. The Duchess of Cambridge continues to let other people shine while she supports quietly in the ground.
She’s so humble she played as an equal to the other musicians. She didn’t try to take away the singer’s spotlight in any way. She just played beautifully and calmly in the background while focusing on the notes, and the fact that it’s for charity is so touching with the meanings behind the song, and when he turned to her at the end she just smiled back warmly she didn’t get up, and take the spotlight it’s like she’s saying “This isn’t about me”. Such a role model.
This performance was beautiful. It made me cry because this is my first Christmas without my Dad. Thank you so much for such an amazing song. I am in awe at Duchess Catherine’s wonderful piano skills and Tom Walker’s lovely voice.
I lost my oldest son on June 2 and my dad on November 11 of this year. Christmas is a time for family and loved ones and this Christmas there will be two empty places at the table. This is a perfect song for those of us missing loved ones. God Bless Tom Walker...an amazingly talented man
Beautiful. Wish this would be made into a cd for charity. This brought tears to my eyes. Everything the Duchess does she does with quiet humility, grace, and dignity. The Duchess is amazing. Love her.
A beautiful song. Remembering the time when Kate was terrified on speaking at EACH 10 years ago in public to now being confident to perform the piano in front of thousands ❤️
Holy I am tearing up. This is beyond. The Duchess Catherine elegantly in the background playing the piano skilfully.The song lyrics! And the fact it was a surprise. The symbolism and all is out the gate. Love it and this whole Moment.
Just beautiful... Just like The Princess of Wales - beautiful inside and out, graceful, never boasting about anything she does. Catherine gets on with things. A genuine heart. Beautiful song and beautifully played
So beautiful, I got chills!!! I had no idea HRH played the piano, it was done so flawless! It is nerv-wrecking to perform and Catherine played so professionally and flawless. Beautiful song and performance!! BRAVO! 👏 🙌 ❤️🌟
I just came back from putting flowers on my dad's and grandparents' gravesites and happened to watch this clip from the special. What a beautiful performance and song. Merry Christmas to all!🎄🙏🏽
I also just came back from putting flowers on my parents grave for Christmas Eve and came home to this incredible song and Catherine at the piano. So classy and beautiful.
For those saying that Catherine's piano playing is elemental, I say, at least she did it~~~and without fanfare. And she did it with love, out of love, for her husband's family who had their first Christmas without Prince Philip. Especially, though, for Her Majesty. That is love.
The Duchess of Cambridge took the time to write back to me & my family this year & it was so uplifting which helped me threw the hardest times of my life and seeing HRH Catherine cplaying a piano so beautiful to always give people something. Wow it’s made me cry it was so powerful. As well as how beautiful the whole song was. Peachy perfect. Thank you 🙏🏻 Merry Christmas 🎅 to all 🎁
Meghan would play the piano in the front with the spotlight on her. And Tom would be singing in the background with the background singers.I don’t know why, but that would be so her. 😂 Allegedly
It wasn't even necessary for Ms. Cambridge to try to be the star of the video, because that has already taken over the film direction by constantly pointing the camera at the Duchess. In so far, I find your comment pretty naive.
@@kobaltblau it was a colaboration between the singer and her, so it is ok if the camera points at her, plus most of the time it points at the singer, and the dutchess face is even blurry. she is not upstaging the singer, it is clear who has the lead, yet our eyes are all drawn to her.
Catherine's elegant, classy, & beautiful piano performance. There's no doubt, the woman is a shining star. Unlike, someone's embarrassing disaster on the Ellen DeGeneres Show.
What’s happening with the view counter? Only 2.6 million?? It was almost 3 million the other day and now it’s gone down ? It’s RUclips making the views go down ! How is this possible.
Yes 😲 It's so wrong 👎 I have complained on youtube to RUclips 😆 3 times, but I don't have a Twitter account, so can't complain on that platform too. Hopefully, twitter users WILL 👍
Like counts also did go down once. It was above 71000 at one point. My opinion is that it may be that Harry and Meghan have their hands on this? I mean when Meghan did her book readings for the Bench, her downvotes were 3.5x more than upvotes and soon after youtube removed the downvote counts display. Now Cambridge's youtube view keep decreasing each day. Their like counts has decreased too. Google has deals with the Sussexes and Google owns youtube. A bit suspect.
She didn't publicise the fact that she'd be playing piano for him. Just quietly went up and did it. Beautiful woman, outside and in.
It’s her production so she won’t advertise it. But if it was part of a company‘s production, the company would’ve advertised it.
Despite the below comment I understand your sentiment @Sandra Goose. Just a humble not ‘look at me, look at me’ person.

You can't top that, not even a Christmas card from Monticeto, never a Christmas card from Monticeto.

Ikr she's very graceful
Hello wonderful creature how are you doing this day am freedom
Thank you for sharing here. I'm in Canada and we can't watch on ITV 1. It is a honor to listen to the Duchess of Cambridge playing the piano
this woman....i wonder if william looks at her and thinks...when i chose you, not even i could know how completely you would fulfill and radiate my life...the song, the simple musical message, the stillness, the whole scene is absolutely mesmerizing...
She goes hand on hand next to him just to serve

A woman of class and many talents. She didn’t make it about her.

Kate's playing is like the way she carries herself as Duchess: sweet, steady, not a beat out of place, not overpowering but perfectly complementing and supporting everything around her yet sounding beautiful in its own right
exceptional comment!!!!!
A beautiful way to describe Catherine.
Cringe
@@jordann96x not sure why you’re cringing, but I feel like I should say there are lots of ways to be powerful as a woman :p Kate seems to be one of the few people able to inhabit the elusive double standard imposed on women- strong but not looking too strong, glamorous but humble, relatable but uncomplaining, etc. People shouldn’t expect women to act a certain way, but Kate manages to meet western society’s ideal of a female public figure, so more power to her.

Perfect as she stood out without taking over. A star who lets everyone else shine too.

Sensational! The Queen must feel so proud. What a talented pianist Catherine is, and we had no idea!
She is the epitome class and grace.
A bittersweet moment remembering ‘those who can’t be here’ at Christmas - Thank you Duchess of Cambridge and Tom Walker for making this.
Yes, the words brought tears to my eyes, we're all missing someone this year.
She must have been absolutely petrified! I've played for years and I fall to pieces when just one person wants to hear me play! Bravo Catherine!
The smile Catherine and Tom shared at the end made me tear up. What a gracious, modest and lovely lady she is. Merry Christmas to all!
Me too... that was genuine and bought me to tears

Accompaning a singer is different skill from playing an instrument on its own and the Duchess did both excellently! Beautiful job from Tom as well!
And it's her first time too..
Just put a similar comment in another thread here as well. You are spot on!

This comment is VERBATIM what another person posted, under a different name. Are all these comments on how great Kate is, being generated by 'bots, or people being paid to create those comments?
You can feel the love Catherine is trying to convey through her performance. She tries so hard to bring healing whilst others try so hard to bring division and animosity. Well done Catherine.
🤦🏾♂️
Well chosen words. A sad state our world and society finds itself in. Thank you Catherine and Tom.
Well said.
I couldn’t agree more 🥰
Beautifully said.
Oh. That little smile at the end got my eyes leaking. What a fantastic thing to do. It's a beautiful song that speaks to all of us who are missing people we love.
We sometimes forget Kate has many talents from piano to languages to photography more we probably don't now..lets celebrate our future queen with joy
Good evening,. Name: Henry Kurt. . Excursion location. . Bremen Germany
In the story, the two beautiful girls are my life. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year .. Nice to meet you
She’s beautiful inside and out. God bless her.
Such a beautiful song...my parents passed away 20 years ago..I still miss them, especially at Christmas.
I could play this over and over again. Beautiful backing vocals, great singing and of course, Catherine the Great.🥰
Her sweet smile to him at the end. This woman is so authentic. Beautifully done, Princess Catherine and Tom Walker. Simply beautiful.
Had me sobbing...it's been a very difficult year for so many all over the world. God bless you Duchess Catherine & Mr Tom.
Thank you, Duchess Catherine and Tom Walker, for moving my heart this Christmas Eve! Love for all!!!!
I am absolutely blown away by this piece. Not only is the track just truly wonderful, the artistic talents of all coming together - not least our most incredibly gifted secret pianist Duchess of Cambridge! Hairs are stood bolt upright on the back of my neck listening to this and the words have all the more resonance to me as we lost my heroic father last year!
I'm very sorry to hear that, Ian. Sending you hugs and I hope you still have a Happy Christmas. Love from California, US.❤
Eternal be his Memory Ian
I lost my dad on Tuesday. It was my eldest daughters wedding on Wednesday. Bitter sweet, im numb. Someone asked what I wanted for Christmas, I said nothing. But I want my dad. God bless you and your family Ian x
Our dearest late HM The Queen would be so proud of The Princess of Whales, She truly is an amazing example of what it means to be Royal
Absolutely beautiful! The Duchess of Cambridge is truly a jewel.
She’s definitely Queen material
She truly is a jewel 💖
@@nicoleyap6070 A Gem!
@@gemjourney5210 Yes she is!
A beautiful lovely jewel!
9 days ago, my grandmother died. 4 days ago, I was in a store when this song came on and I heard it for the first time. I stopped in my tracks and burst into tears. Today, Christmas Eve day, we held a virtual celebration of life for her. Just now, this video came up on my Instagram page.
Strange coincidences. This is silly, but I feel like this was a gift from her to me. Thank you, duchess Kate and Tom Walker, for helping us to remember and celebrate those who can’t be here.
Einstein said "Coincidences are God's way of remaining anonymous"♥️🎄
Oh I felt your emotion so much reading this. I am sure your grandma is loving you in the afterlife, and wrapping you up with her love and warmth 💖
This was my first time hearing this song and I found this song to be very moving. I live in the US and I lost my grandmother the Tuesday before our Thanksgiving. I find that these types of songs are very rare because they aren’t happy and bouncy, but it’s a feeling that needs to be acknowledged. Bless them for acknowledging those of us who are grieving.
I had a similar experience when my grandfather died Christmas 1999. It was sad as he wanted to see the millennium and only became ill the week before Christmas. He was buried on New Years Eve and getting into the car to go the funeral John Lennons Imagine was on the radio. Then after the funeral get in the car again to go to the grave and it’s on… and a third time going home. That song now always reminds me of the day. I was only 9, and it wasn’t as if the song was only released…
Doesn't sound silly at all, she sent it to you a second time to make sure you got her message, Bless you and have a Happy Christmas remembering your dear Grandmother.
Duchess Catherine didn't take the limelight away from Tom Walker once.
She was playing quietly in the background without looking into the camera directly once.
I for one thought it was a lovely gesture that showed just how dignified and beautiful Catherine is within her heart.
Absolutely tear jerking sung & piano playing perfect. I loudly applaud both performances. The Duchess of Cambridge continues to let other people shine while she supports quietly in the ground.
Well said x
This still moves me to tears. Catherine, now Princess of Wales, played superbly. Toms was the right voice, imo for this beautiful song. ❤❤
She’s so humble she played as an equal to the other musicians. She didn’t try to take away the singer’s spotlight in any way. She just played beautifully and calmly in the background while focusing on the notes, and the fact that it’s for charity is so touching with the meanings behind the song, and when he turned to her at the end she just smiled back warmly she didn’t get up, and take the spotlight it’s like she’s saying “This isn’t about me”. Such a role model.
is it for charity? I know a lot of people are saying it should be.
@@vallee3140 yes it is .
For Kate, it's near always about the other people. That's why she's loved the world over.
I love the smile Tom gave to Kate at the end. What a moving song, and I love how Kate was so humble too. 💖
On would one even steal the show while playing piano? Y’all are so corny.
This brought tears to my eyes. Such a heartbreaking performance. Really makes you reflect on the pain we’ve all shared.
Catherine's piano skills are absolutely brilliant. She is so fantastic. Well done 👏👏👏❤❤❤🎹🎹🎹
She gave me shivers of pure joy. It all was beautiful and very peaceful.
She was a bit nervous.
@@cfantasticseeallgood understandable
@@cfantasticseeallgood but she still nailed it troll :)
@@cfantasticseeallgood didn’t look nervous to me. She did well.
Kate is such a beautiful person. Princess Diana would be proud of her and William
The smile they shared after the music stopped was just the perfect ending of this amazing performance!
Wow! That smile is one I will never forget! What a gift to give the world for Christmas! Thank you
Lovely!❤️
This performance was beautiful. It made me cry because this is my first Christmas without my Dad. Thank you so much for such an amazing song. I am in awe at Duchess Catherine’s wonderful piano skills and Tom Walker’s lovely voice.
I lost my oldest son on June 2 and my dad on November 11 of this year. Christmas is a time for family and loved ones and this Christmas there will be two empty places at the table. This is a perfect song for those of us missing loved ones. God Bless Tom Walker...an amazingly talented man
I'm so sorry for your loss, I send you wishes of love and strength at this time and throughout...it certainly was a beautiful song
I'm so sorry for your loss. You are in our hearts.
Sorry for your loss x
I'm so very sorry for your family's loss. I pray the Lord blesses you with Peace and Love in the coming year!
I'm very sorry for your loss, sending love ❤️
That little look between, the Princess and Tom Walker was magic and beautiful 🎉😂❤
The Duchess of Cambridge is an incredible woman. She defines what it means to have class. Wow
Beautiful. Wish this would be made into a cd for charity. This brought tears to my eyes. Everything the Duchess does she does with quiet humility, grace, and dignity. The Duchess is amazing. Love her.
A beautiful song. Remembering the time when Kate was terrified on speaking at EACH 10 years ago in public to now being confident to perform the piano in front of thousands ❤️
I know!! She is such as inspiration for people like me who are terrified of public speaking
Indeed!
That is growth! Love how she's becoming more comfortable in public over the years 💕
An Angel on earth, this woman... Can't stop listening to it one year later...
Gosh I am enjoying it tremendously. Such a warm feeling in this dark world
I'm feeling you, my friend. Beautiful!
Agreed
And the first Christmas without prince Philip for the family. Very beautiful and poignant for the Queen.
Spread the love - every day
🥲
I had no idea what a multitalented person she was. You go Kate!
Holy I am tearing up. This is beyond. The Duchess Catherine elegantly in the background playing the piano skilfully.The song lyrics! And the fact it was a surprise. The symbolism and all is out the gate. Love it and this whole Moment.
Just beautiful... Just like The Princess of Wales - beautiful inside and out, graceful, never boasting about anything she does. Catherine gets on with things. A genuine heart. Beautiful song and beautifully played
Catherine is class. She’s exactly what the UK 🇬🇧 needs in a Queen Consort. She does her duty well.
So beautiful, I got chills!!! I had no idea HRH played the piano, it was done so flawless! It is nerv-wrecking to perform and Catherine played so professionally and flawless. Beautiful song and performance!! BRAVO! 👏 🙌 ❤️🌟
I just came back from putting flowers on my dad's and grandparents' gravesites and happened to watch this clip from the special. What a beautiful performance and song. Merry Christmas to all!🎄🙏🏽
It would have been my mum's birthday today (Christmas Eve) but she died in November this year (2021). Poignant song!
The Duchess did so well!
😪😪😪😪😪
I also just came back from putting flowers on my parents grave for Christmas Eve and came home to this incredible song and Catherine at the piano. So classy and beautiful.
A lovely performance by princess Catherine. Thanks Tom for this beautiful song.
What a beautiful song. 🥺 The Duchess is brilliant at playing the piano! Well done to her and Tom! 👏🏻❤️
This is absolutely pure class! You can never go wrong with the Duchess of Cambridge. Protect her at all cost!
What a wonderful magical person she is.
@@jennywilliams9594 Magical and musical she is!
I love the smile he gave Kate he was saying we did it 😉
Just beautiful....the song, the performance, the humility, the message! Hope we get to see the entire program in the US!
Ahhhh I hope you do too, it was absolutely beautiful but have some tissues ready. I cried my eyes out😥
It’s really worth watching it was all so beautiful
I want to see it in Canada too, please! ❤️
Yes I hope they show it here in the US 🤞
It was lovely and the way it began with the solo choir boy was magical
For those saying that Catherine's piano playing is elemental, I say, at least she did it~~~and without fanfare. And she did it with love, out of love, for her husband's family who had their first Christmas without Prince Philip. Especially, though, for Her Majesty. That is love.
The Duchess of Cambridge took the time to write back to me & my family this year & it was so uplifting which helped me threw the hardest times of my life and seeing HRH Catherine cplaying a piano so beautiful to always give people something. Wow it’s made me cry it was so powerful. As well as how beautiful the whole song was. Peachy perfect. Thank you 🙏🏻
Merry Christmas 🎅 to all 🎁
That’s so lovely
Thanks for sharing, Toni 🧡
I loved how she led Tom to shine. She hasn’t tried to become the star of the song❤️❤️
Well said🙌
Meghan would play the piano in the front with the spotlight on her. And Tom would be singing in the background with the background singers.I don’t know why, but that would be so her. 😂
Allegedly
It wasn't even necessary for Ms. Cambridge to try to be the star of the video, because that has already taken over the film direction by constantly pointing the camera at the Duchess. In so far, I find your comment pretty naive.
@@kobaltblau it was a colaboration between the singer and her, so it is ok if the camera points at her, plus most of the time it points at the singer, and the dutchess face is even blurry. she is not upstaging the singer, it is clear who has the lead, yet our eyes are all drawn to her.
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Catherine's elegant, classy, & beautiful piano performance. There's no doubt, the woman is a shining star. Unlike, someone's embarrassing disaster on the Ellen DeGeneres Show.
What’s happening with the view counter? Only 2.6 million?? It was almost 3 million the other day and now it’s gone down ? It’s RUclips making the views go down ! How is this possible.
Yes 😲 It's so wrong 👎 I have complained on youtube to RUclips 😆 3 times, but I don't have a Twitter account, so can't complain on that platform too. Hopefully, twitter users WILL 👍
And it’s 2.6 for several days now but you have new comments. I can’t understand what’s happeningz
Like counts also did go down once. It was above 71000 at one point. My opinion is that it may be that Harry and Meghan have their hands on this? I mean when Meghan did her book readings for the Bench, her downvotes were 3.5x more than upvotes and soon after youtube removed the downvote counts display. Now Cambridge's youtube view keep decreasing each day. Their like counts has decreased too. Google has deals with the Sussexes and Google owns youtube. A bit suspect.
