If Silent Night is one of your favorites I’m curious what your favorite version is. I love the Carpenters version. Karen’s voice is beautiful, angelic and the music/chorus is beautiful. I listen to A LOT of Christmas music and I can’t think of a better performance.

Silent Night — Bing or Nat King Cole, both do excellent versions

That is a nice version. Another one that comes on the radio around here is the Elvis version. There is a version with a high clear soprano but I don’t know who it is that does it.

I am a chorister, so I prefer a nice SATB or divisi version.

But I love good pop, and Karen Carpenter has one of the most mellifluous voices ever.

I saw them live once. She played drums of course.
