Yes, could well be their last Christmas promo - I'll record it if I can but Channel 5 blocked my upload from the Gabby program. :roll:

Please try to upload it anyway. The Live with Gabby video may be blocked in the UK, but we can still see it here in the US. :D

The last two days, Andrea Bocelli and Alfie Boe have performed at approx 12:20 - closing out the show. It will probably be the same tomorrow for Libera. Bocelli & Boe got their full time allocation to sing the song from start to end, so I hope they treat Libera with the same courtesy. After two recent short offerings, it would be unlucky for 3-in-a-row. I've set the recorder so unless there is a power-cut, whatever they do sing, will be shared.

I just hope its not carol of the bells. Anything else would make a very welcomed change. I just find it quite a repetitive song and i am already tiring slightly of it. Which is unlike the other songs they sing that i can listen to over and over. How Shall I sing is on about 350 plays this year alone.

Yes a new carol would be nice, but I have a feeling it might be Carol of the Bells again. It's popular with the boys as per Simon Lewis interview on Sydenham Radio and although we've been saturated with it a little being 'libera' fans, it's still a song that makes a great first impression for new audiences. They will be going out a to a few million tomorrow morning.

This will be heard by a few million ??? WOW !!!!
Let it be Carol of The Bells then. Judging by the charts - it seems to be the most liked by the mainstream :)
AND if I heard correctly- it's the favourite carol as for the boys themselves!

Sorry dani but I think Carol of the Bells is perfect for promoting Libera - it is a high impact song that is very memorable for people new to the group. I'm sure it will be COTB tomorrow and I think it is the right choice of song to promote the group to a wider audience. the ITunes ranking of the song shows its ability to connect to the audience.

For a 1 shot promo, I think it would be a great piece to captivate new fans.

Yes, maybe could become a little tiresome if listened to many many times, but unlikely as its being broadcast on TV. I personally think this song portrays Libera in a more mainstream way and would be more appealing to a wider audience rather than just us purists
