LYRICS:
Hark! how the bells
Sweet silver bells
All seem to say
"Throw cares away."
Christmas is here
Bringing good cheer
To young and old
Meek and the bold
Ding, dong, ding, dong
That is their song
With joyful ring
All caroling
One seems to hear
Words of good cheer
From ev'rywhere
Filling the air
Oh how they pound
Raising the sound
O'er hill and dale
Telling their tale
Joyf'ly they ring
While people sing
Songs of good cheer
Christmas is here
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas
Merry, merry, merry, merry Christmas
On, on they send
On without end
Their joyful tone
To ev'ry home
[Repeat from the beginning]

Out of all the versions of Carol Of The Bells out there, this will always be my favorite.
I agree. No other version compares.
I recommend listening to the original. this is a Ukrainian song. it sounds great in ukrainian.
I will look into that, thank you. God bless the Ukrainians and the World alike!@@eliteofthetuehdzh4651

I love how, despite being a Christmas song, this sounds so dark in a way?
Ikr something feels sinister in this song
@@CoFFee-uw5sv I thought it might come from me finding it in an Attack on Titan edit but apparently not
not by chance,this song also represents the Krampus
Yeah
It sounds so dark that it is actually the background theme for Joker's entry in the game Batman Arkham Origins
This guy make soundtrack to star wars and home alone. Nice

Yup
John Hayden tintin do be hitting different tho

Hello! This is an English adaptation of the legendary "Shchedryk" written by Mykola Leontovych. Shchedryk was first performed in 1860 in Paris, by a choir of students from the Kyiv Theological Academy under the direction of Mykola Lysenko. However, the best performance of Shchedryk throughout Europe and at the Paris Peace Conference in 1919 was by the Ukrainian Choir under the direction of Oleksandr Koshytsia.
It brings me some nostalgic memories like from Home Alone, Mr. Bean and Harry Potter. I don't know why. GOOSEBUMPS!
John Williams is a legend in real life
Fun fact during the making of home alone they couldn’t get a good sound track but someone jokingly said
“Wouldn’t be cool if we had John Williams”
but they took it seriously and they got John Williams
It's not John Williams composition, it's originally Ukrainian song.
"Carol of the Bells" is a popular Christmas carol, which is based on the Ukrainian song called "Shchedryk.” The music to “Carol of the Bells” was taken from the original Ukrainian song written by Mykola Leontovych while the English-language lyrics were written by Peter Wilhousky.
I can’t believe the kid star of home alone is now 41 years old. Man how time goes, and putting this old song in the movie goes well with it.
This will always be the best version
0:29 yes
John Williams is a global treasure
This song isn't by John Williams. It's part of the soundtrack but by a Ukrainian composer Leontovych who wrote it circa 1910-15.
if you could boil down the feeling of "magic" in a song. That's the mix of feeling excited and eerie in the same time. Love it
The original melody was written by the Ukrainian Mikola Leontovich in 1916. After 6 years it was adapted into English and sounded for the first time in New York. This song in Ukraine is called "Shchedryk".
Here is the original

Thanks for posting this.
Thanks, nice to know.
Cool!
thanks
Thank you for the history lesson
the way to stress vocally is SUPER rhythmic idea: genius in sound creativity - a sound effect and a rhythm at the same time
John Williams, Hans Zimmer and Ludwig Goranson is my top 3 favorites scoring artist for movies. All scoring that they're created for movies is good af.
I agree with the names listed, but this composition was not composed by John Williams. I don't know why someone still signs that this is his composition when it is not. The composition was composed 80 years before the appearance of the movie Home Alone.

@@siroliver9889 Ohhh, i see, thank you, thank you for explaining.
You listed really all the top composers in the filmscore industry. I have heard almost every composition and movies of theirs (I have it downloaded soundtracks on my laptop).
I would also add Nino Rota (The Godfather) or Ennio Morricone on this list.
As for this composition, it is Ukrainian. John Williams did the music for the film Home Alone but did not compose Carol of the Bells.
I checked and Wikipedia says what I mentioned to you (name of composer)

The lyrics seem so jovial but the song sounds so intense and dark

No wonder muscovy was so scared of this song! It's literally the best and goat song in Christian and Christmas history.
Anyone who can sing this is absolutely impressive in my book.
That high note is a nut
you made and broke the song at both times loll
Beautiful Ukrainian carol.
It's Ukrainian? Really?

i love this bop
I know it ain't Christmas but I love this song😍👍
That John Williams did this.. then transferred a similar tune into the Harry Potter.. just WoW 🤩
This is the darkest Christmas song I've ever heard.
🤐 it sounds so good
❤
Anybody know what kind of music this is like multiple ppl singing the same verse at a high speed
Accapella
i think it's like harmony or something
It's a "canon".
"Accapella" is just singing without any other instrument than the voice. And harmony is singing with differents harmonised notes.

Home alone movie nice and funny 😂😂

this is the version I remember the best for some reason. I always thought this was the original traditional version lol.

@@Lanetgm Ukraine in 1916 didn't exist.
@@1valinton Poland too and what? There were Ukrainians, and the Ukrainian composer Mykola Leontovych wrote this music. And while the whole world is listening to this music and celebrating Christmas, Russia continues to bomb Ukraine.
@@user-io6hz6ro1z What??? But what about the Kingdom of Poland??? But what about the Polish-Lithuanian principality??? But what about the Commonwealth??? ;))))))) Nikolai Liontovych could not be a Ukrainian, because there was no Ukraine yet. Liars.
