First Time Hearing Metal musicians perform "O Holy Night" | Christian Reacts!!! 

Thank you for your awesome comment it truly means alot! I agree man the Spirit allows us to enjoy this song at an even deeper level. God Bless and thanks for the support!

@@gametchanger You are most welcome, Brother.

God can use any ordinary person as his conduit to reach the lost.I have a excitement,move of the Holly Spirit When Dan is obedient to share with his God given talent or gift to the world.Praise God Jesus is Lord.

Amen amen! God bless!

Um NO it's METAL!!!!🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

@@Danielle_Torres Um YES it's METAL!!!! This certainly does NOT mean that it can't be used to emphasize how strong and powerful Our Lord is, as @RoGuimaraes said and @gametchanger agreed, and as I agree. We are LOVING how that particular insertion of "metal" was placed exactly where Dan placed it. This is HIS arrangement of the song--nobody else's. It is DAN...doing DAN things...to a song that has been done in MANY different ways over the years, that was also written by a PERSON...one like any of the rest of us...one who knew and loved the Lord Jesus Christ, and wrote a song about His birth as a human being (something CREATED BY GOD), while at the same time retaining His full entity within the triune Godhead [the Great I Am] (Jesus was the ONE, who spoke everything INTO being, and WITHOUT HIM, NOTHING WAS MADE THAT WAS MADE). (John 1 in the New Testament) It's not the NIGHT itself that is actually considered "divine," or "holy." As the song continues in POWER METAL after the Dan-inserted bit of DEATH METAL, Dan sings out, "Christ is the Lord! O, praise HIS NAME forever!" When the phrasing of this old song says, "...O Night Divine..." it is NOT meaning that the night itself IS GOD, or is to be REVERED AS GOD. What it IS saying, is that something wonderfully and perfectly DIVINE (of God) happened on that particular night (and who cares EXACTLY what night it was), that began setting into action the NEW COVENANT directly being REPLACED, between God and His created mankind. Since God Himself also created MUSIC, there is no limitation on where the chords and sounds that make any particular music into "METAL," can be placed. Ro is absolutely correct. "The roar is to emphasize how strong and powerful Our Lord is." It is Dan's way of doing that. He brought emphasis to that particular phrase ("Let all within us...") so that the following words, "PRAISE HIS HOLY NAME!" would be emphasized...not the night itself, but GOD, HIMSELF. Also...Jesus is also called The Lion of [the tribe of] Judah. Lions ROAR. Personally, I LOVE IT when that Lion of Judah (which means PRAISE) roars within me...because then He also roars THROUGH me, and out into the world. HALLELUJAH!!! GO, DAN!!!

@@GrandmasGotGraceLW Im about to lose my sh@t please the power of christ compels me

The Roar - "All Words in Us", even the bad ones will praise HIS name!!

It's truly the best! God bless!

May God bless you and thank you so much for this awesome comment. God Bless!

Amen! ❤

Angels we have heard on high by dan

Definitely not my favorite of his.

Danis amazing! Hitting it all no matter how deep within us he knows how to bring it out and let it go!!

Merry Christmas can't wait for you to see the reaction. God Bless!

Merry Christmas and God bless you. Thank you for your support!

I'm so glad you reacted to this! I was blown away by it. I love the last two verses he chose. Those are very powerful for this time. I think he shook the gates of hell with this one. Blessings

@@triciamiller6447 I think so, too...but then...he pretty much always does. 😀

Amen amen and so true! God bless!

Amen and to God be all the Glory! Thank you so much for the support and God bless!

Love it and thank you so much for your encouragement and love for this song. God Bless!

God has ALWAYS loved "metal." The more I go back and look through the lyrics of a TON of the metal songs that I HADN'T listened to (I listened to a lot, but not everything, over the years), the more I see lyrics that were written IN CODE. We tend to think that, these days, we've had to do a lot of that, but the songs that were written back in the late 70s, 80s, and early 90s were being screened, as well. Knowing what we know, NOW, about how things can be shut down for "wrong phrasing," (which is what the song "Breaking the Silence" is all about), I can see where a whole lot MORE of us SHOULD have been listening very intently to the music that Dan now sings for us!!!

Amen Christ is truly the Lord! God bless!

AMEN!! ❤

YES! 😀

Dan is awesome and I love how much he loves Jesus. God Bless!

YES! Very well said! Thank you! 😀

Dan is a Christian and I love his music but the one small part sounded like a devil growling. I hated that one part.

Wow who said that? People have some wild takes and forget to listen to the lyrics. God Bless and thank you for the comment!

@@gametchanger It was someone on the comment section when the song was just dropped. I didn't say anything then, but after listening to a Christian reaction, and he enjoyed the song, I had to say my piece. Cajuns tend to get there point across. 😏

@@suzannebush176 Same here. I'm not a Cajun, but I'm Polish...stubborn as the day is born. 😀

AUNTIE!!! I missed seeing you in the comments. God Bless and Merry Christmas!

@@gametchanger 😊👍

Absolutely I'll check it out and now I gotta look up a pic of Erik haha 😄! God bless!

🤣@@gametchanger

I’m confused…. Sebastian Bach is the lead singer in Skid Row. Are you maybe confusing him with somebody?

@@user-gc1cp1xp5i Sebastian Bach hasn't been the lead singer for Skid Row since 1996. - - - - - - - - - - Here are the basics after that. - - - - - - - - - - In 2016, Skid Row announced a new singer. The new frontman was Erik Grönwall, former singer with Swedish rockers H.E.A.T., who replaces ZP Theart, the former Dragonforce vocalist who joined Skid Row in 2016. Grönwall was the fourth man to have fronted Skid Row since the departure of the band's best-known singer Sebastian Bach in 1996. Bach was followed by Johnny Solinger, who enjoyed a 16-year tenure, and TNT singer Tony Harnell, who spent eight months with the band in 2015 before making way for Theart. Early in 2021, Erik Grönwall's appointment (replacing Theart) was confirmed in a statement from the band, which read, "It's a new era for Skid Row. With a new album, a new single and a world tour, we've added a new voice. Welcome powerhouse vocalist Erik Grönwall, formerly from the band H.E.A.T. from Sweden." Unfortunately, in April 2021, Erik was diagnosed with acute lymphocytic leukemia. In 2023, Erik received a bone marrow transplant, which has pretty much "given him back his life." However, in early 2024, because now he is going through having a completely brand new immune system, he made the decision that his health is more important than staying on with Skid Row as the lead singer. Since May of 2024, Erik has been working as a RU-vid soloist, and posting his own work, without having the constraint of being in a whole group, and/or on tour while still battling the leftovers from the leukemia and the adjustment time from the bone marrow transplant. - - - - - - - - - -

Thank you so much for your support and God bless!

@@gametchanger You are welcome ! God bless you

If you're meaning Dan's version of it, it's the Latin words "Adeste Fidelis" on his channel. 😀

Hi @esanchez1305. You missed some reactions to this video. Do you need the links? I do like to support the view numbers of channels that react to and like Dan Vasc. Happy New Year. 🎉

@@kathleenreid7027 well sorry to disappoint u but u know as well as I know that I'm not tryin to support Dan. He's got enough support already I Wana support Tommy and spread the word out on what ppl are missing also 😀 do u can help me too if u want

@@esanchez1305 I was being sarcastic.

YES! I was thinking Matt had already reacted to that one! I was thinking I had requested it, but I guess not! I love your very short description just above. I spent (literally) THREE DAYS defending Dan's choice of songs, and explaining what you just put into a nutshell. THANK YOU! 😀

@@GrandmasGotGraceLW thank you. It took me a long time also to condense it down to that, when there’s so much explanation you want to give. At first I was very leary of the song but it can a great opportunity to witness if the occasion were to arise.

Quick answer is I reacted to a video that he talks about his faith at the end. I'll try to find which one it was and get back to you. If he said mythology that is concerning and I would agree with you there. God Bless!

@franceshale584 -- @gametchanger -- The song Matt is referring to is "FOR ALL," written and originally sung by one of the Christian musicians and singers that Dan has always loved, Roy Khan. You can find the title in Dan's channel. When Dan referred to "Judeo-Christian mythology," he was talking about the fact that Tolkien (for one) used his "mythological" stories to represent Biblical truths. This is also the fact about SO much "Metal Music" that many of us never heard correctly, in years past. Specifically, he was talking about how he and Davi (his younger brother) (and Gabriel Belozi and Giovanni Rezende) -- the Band Fearless -- wrote their original album "Chronicles of Ancient Wisdom." In that album, there is a wonderful prologue, and 11 other tracks. Of those 11 tracks, five of them directly reference scriptures, as the story within the album follows its trail. Actually, I've found scriptures in several of the other six tracks, as well. In fact, I've seen written proof of that, by Dan. It's fun to listen closely to the music, and find those gems -- hidden treasure, to be sure. Many of those types of tales of old were told the way they were, for the very same reason that a WHOLE lot of Metal songs were written. The more I discover about BOTH, the more I understand how God's message gets to people who might not have any other options to hear THE WORD. Just do this search: "Was Tolkien a Christian?" You'll find out a WHOLE lot about not just J.R.R. Tolkien, but about C.S. Lewis, and a TON of others who have used this method of Biblical story-telling...right into today's space in time. You might want to read a very short, but very meaningful and purposeful book by C.S. Lewis, called "The Screwtape Letters." It will help you get a handle on this way of telling the Gospel, AND of the power that is within us THROUGH HOLY SPIRIT, against the scrawny lies of the devil. You can find the book on Amazon (or most bookstores). On Amazon, you can also get it for your Kindle. I studied under Kenneth Hagin, by taking a two-year correspondent course (now called distance learning, of course), through RHEMA College. That book was the very first thing required of us to read. It is AMAZING! - - - - - - - - - - Again...the stories themselves are ABOUT, or RELATED TO Judeo-Christianity. The FORMS the stories are written in, are "mythological," in that they are not stories straight out of the Bible. They are about made-up (fictional) stories that tell ABOUT the things of the Bible, without them being PART of the Bible. Actually, when we tell a story (give a testimony) about something that has happened to us in our world of today...or yesterday...meaning our world at any given day or time...that is NOT already published in the Bible, but that is easily identified as being something that WOULD have happened in the Bible...we are telling those stories as "Judeo-Christian mythology." In other words, "As we believe, so do we speak."

@franceshale584 -- Also, if you'll go way back into Dan's catalog, you'll see how he BEGAN posting when he started the channel. There are scriptures at the end of nearly all of the really old videos. Also, in other videos with his gaming friends (not just the interview that I'm thinking you watched, in which I heard the same basic conversation), Dan has repeatedly mentioned his beliefs, PLUS he denounced a declared witch who had been threatening him with curses upon him if he didn't marry her! His comments were in the line of, "How could she even THINK such would be the case, because I'm a CHRISTIAN???!!!"

To @gamechanger and @GrandmaGotGraceLW Thank you for responding! And for all your very well thought out answers. This made it more understandable to me. Yes, I’ve read SCREWTAPE LETTERS. I was a little concerned, did not want to put my own appreciation of Dan Vasc without being clear about him. I have heard, I think, most all of his Christ oriented music except for his interpretative music of Amazing Grace, can’t do that one yet. I am not a fan of black metals music but watching him do Angels We Have Heard on High, I can begin to associate a kind of power stance to Christ Himself. I KNOW it’s there, but not yet, not till He returns again. My hope is more come to saving faith in Him but until then, even so, come quickly LORD JESUS.

Dan has PROUDLY proclaimed his Christianity in many videos, chats & interviews that I’ve personally seen. He is a believer and loves The Lord. He sings His praise LOUD & PROUD.✨
