“Mary Did You Know,” Justin Bieber style
There is, of course, universal consensus that “Mary Did You Know” is the single greatest Christmas song of all time. Which makes this video the greatest Christmas recording…

DISCLAIMER: I hope there’s nothing inappropriate in the second half, because I couldn’t watch it all the way through.
Also, I’m going back and forth on whether this is for real or not…I’m afraid it might be…

A least half of the Gaither’s are rolling in their graves now…
i fear it probably is. wrist bands and all.
Watched it at Jesus Needs New PR. Yes. It appears to be real.
…this leads me to believe that the Amazon Top 1,000 list you’ve been promoting is incomplete.
Why? Why did I watch this?
1.) The little Mormon kid is REALLY feeling it at the end.
2.) Is the sweatband above his right elbow and wrist a religious thing? Or pure fashion?
I bet it is because of a tattoo.
I stopped it before my head exploded… in a bad way.
JB is WAY better than him!
like, like, like. :)
Wait. So this is real?
Amazing to see/hear how the Techno dance-version can tranform “the single greatest Christmas song of all time” into, well….
I couldn’t finish it because he’s reoccurringly flat and has a weak voice. But mostly because he’s reoccurringly flat.
If it’s a joke, it may in fact be the best-acted joke in history.
I don’t think it’s a joke.
it’s truly odd that he’s flat – as his voice is auto-tuned into oblivion. Or, at least the 20 seconds that I got through was that way…
It is real.

The kid’s name is Johnny.
Unlike most(all) of the previous commenters, I think this kid is doing a great job.
I’m also becoming more and more convinced your blog has some of the most cynical readers known to man.
“your blog has some of the most cynical readers known to man.”
that’s pretty cynical of you
That’s just gross and wrong. A 12-year-old boy, who looks like a girl, acting seductive while singing “Mary Did You Know” to techno music is sick. In a bad way. I bet alot of pedophiles are watching right now.
I like Mary Did You Know, I like dance music. Sometimes I even like cheezy christian dance music- I have a worship jamz CD on my iPod. Even though I like all those things, I just can’t stomach this one! It’s just wrong!
I want this as my ringtone.
Am I the only one who thinks all his close-ups make him look like a toddler? He’s got such a super-young face. It makes what he’s singing seem weirdly ironic, a bit.
I love the song Marry Did You Know, but not this version, i am 13 and even i think its wrong, in a christian way… what i believe in is different, we dont wear the cross… we dont need to remind ourselves of the cross because our price was paid and for us. We also dont dance… in the Bible, i read God doesnt like it. ON THE OTHERHAND; at least hes singing a christian song… i hope the words mean something to him.
