Beyonce Sings “Ave Maria” — VIDEO
Beyonce (in Donna Karan) sings “Ave Maria” (her own version of the song off her album I Am…Sasha Fierce) at the 2008 Christmas Tree Lighting Ceremony in Rockefeller Center. Sample lyrics and video below!
She was lost in so many different ways
Out in the darkness with no guide
I know the cost of a losing hand
Never thought the grace of god go high
I found heaven on earth
You were my last, my first
And then here this voice inside
Ave maria
More pics from the performance here.

This is a sham out of a very beautiful song,one that holds loads of memories for me.
I love Beyonce. She looked amazing.
Who cares if the song was not the real Ave Maria.
The song is a total different song but she decided to keep the title seeing as she used the most famous line in the song.
She is so skilled to be able to take lyrics from the past and make it into her own.
GO BEYONCE!!!!!
Loved it. Best Performance of the night!
She did amazing. I think I’m gonna go buy her album.
I really like this song and her song “Halo” off her new album.
Holy does she have some singing chops.
She is one talented lady. She carries herself beautifully. I got to give it up to her for the fact that she really knows how to sell herself.
Great business woman.
HOTTNESS!
I love this woman.
#1 in the game.
VERY BEAUTIFUL LADY, VERY BEAUTIFULLY SANG SONG!
just one thing: THIS IS AN UNCERTAIN FAKER, folks!!
she sang it beautifuly
@ hello 1, he’s asking about britney (shitney) get it. not whitney or mariah. that girl couldn’t even sing amazing grace.
It’s “there but for the grace of God go I…” not “Never thought the grace of god go high”
dang that was her best vocal performance i have ever seen. she just keeps getting better. that was beautiful
why do people think they can cover this classical song that is meant to be sung by a very powerful voice? beyonce doesn’t have the range for this song. This song is for the likes of andrea bocelli or Pavarotti.
to andrea
She did the song. She does have the range and she is on TV doing it and performing it live. It’s already done. How can you say she doesn’t have the vocal range when she just did it.
I didn’t hear the crowd boo. I heard them cheer.
Yeah ****andrea****
Beyonce sang
Emotions - with Celine Dion
So Amazing - with Stevie Wonder
The Closer I get to you - with Luther Vandross
Stand up - with artists rangeing from Mariah Carey to Miley Cyrus
She sang tributes to Janet Jackson, Micheal Jackson, Dianna Ross, Etta James, Tina Turner.
Beyonce totally has an excellent range and she is an undeniable superstar!
Actually andrea!!!
With Beyonce having a B2-B6, 3 Octave vocal range. She is more than qualified to sing with Andrea Bocelli.
Beyonce even has a higher octave range than Sarah Srightman
So seriously get your facts straight before you comment and make yourself into a fool.
People come on her and say Beyonce cannot sing.
She is the only artist who always gave 100% to every performance.
She never sounded bad. With Christina I know she is good but you have to agree she has her good days and bad days.
Beyonce has been consistant.
with Rihanna and Britney They pretty much sing just as much as Miley Cyrus does. They really don’t They depend on backup dances and stage props to create a performance. I understand entertainment but at least change it up a little. Rihanna and Britney would never be able to sing a song like amazing grace or even Ave Maria. They just can’t hold a note. By the way speaking of bad. Rihanna’s performance at the AMA’s was terrible. Usually her acts are ok. But that one. Nasty!
Beyonce is firt and foremost a singer. Why else would people like Luther Vandross, Josh Groban, Stevie Wonder duet with her. She is that good. Say what you want haters but the truth is in the actions. everyone knows Beyonce can sing, we know it and so do her celebrity peers.
I love Beyonce.
shes wierd
With 10 Grammy’s, three solo albums, four movies and a pret-a-porter line under her belt, it’s no surprise Beyonce Knowles blows away the rest of the list, raking in $80 million–almost double the $44 million runner-up Justin Timberlake pulled in this fiscal year. The former Destiny’s Child lead released her latest album I am Sasha Fierce Nov. 19, which sold nearly half a million copies in its first week.
That is from Forbes.
By the way would they put a fat person on the cover of Sports illustrated. No!
Beyonce was on the cover and she looked amazing.
Beyonce was voted # 1 on askmen.com in 2007 an online poll that allows only one vote per IP address. If guys like their women “Fat” all you rail thin paper wafers better get some meat on you. Men like having something to hold. Say what you want but it was the men that voted.
Beyonce Has writing credits and awards since her days back with Destinys Child. She has nothing to prove to you jealous people but since I’m here.
Beyonce won ASCAP Songwriter of the Year in 2004 for her work in Destiny’s Child. She was the second woman to win this award. She also has written for many other artists but unlike those other artists. She Refuses to run around saying who she has written for. Now that is class and Talent and writing ability.
You hate and you degrade just to make yourselves feel better when really you just wish you made $80 Million in 2008.
Look at all these jealous people wishing they made as much money as her.
That is the way society is now. Rather than congratulate someone for working hard everyday. People try to find things to tear them down.
Good luck haters. Her Album is number # 1 on the billboard charts and Single Ladies is number #1 on the R&B Billboard Charts!
She is amazing and she looks amazing in this dress.
hotty hotty
Best Perfomance of the Night..
Go Bey #1 on Hot 100 Charts…
I wud like If I Were a Boy to do the same…
What does this song (her version) have to do with Christmas? That would be like me singing Jingle Bells and the song being about playdough. Ave Maria is not about someones love for a former drug dealer. This shi* its sacreligous.
