It was the song, honest! I fell in love with Mariah's audio version of this song years ago. In fact, if she'd quit trying to be Beyonce/Paris/Britney and concentrate on what she does best--sing gospel--she would achieve greatness. Alas.
A note: O Holy Night is on Mariah's Christmas album (borrowed a CD and made a cassette copy several years ago and my family listens to it every year). It's a real mixed collection, with a lot of schlock (including the schlocky hit, "All I Want for Christmas Is You"). However, her version of Silent Night (also straight gospel) is pretty good. By and large, though, O Holy Night is the only worthy song on the album.

Now, tell me truly, Porthos. Was it the song or the red dress?

Only caught sight of the You-Tube this morning, when I was listening to the Aled Jones. Scout's honor.
