Clay Aiken – "Don’t Save It All For Christmas Day"
November 29, 2007 by Jeanne
I was sent this great video of Clay Aiken performing "Don’t Save it All For Christmas Day." You’ll have to help me Claymates – is this brand new from his tour? If so, he has worked his little butt off losing some weight. He looks fantastic!
Hi Jeanne.
Yes that video was taken on Tuesday night at the Fox Theater in St. Louis on the 2nd night of Clay’s “Christmas in the Heartland” tour.
He does look amazing. He’ll be in Kalamazoo on Friday on his 29th Birthday.
Yes that is from his current tour. I believe that video is from his performance in St. Louis on Tuesday.
But yeah he is looking good!
Clay has closed at least the last two yrs, maybe more, Christmas Tour with “Don’t Save It All For Christmas Day” so the song is not knew to him. In fact, if you remember the TV Christmas Special for AI2, Clay sang this song on it. However, Clay has gained a lot of maturity in the way he sings it. It’s always wonderful to hear him.
He’s looking great!
The song was written by Celine Dion for her Christmas album several years ago. Clay has performed it on all four of his Christmas tours, and it is on the album “Merry Christmas with Love.” It is a real show-stopper.
As for the weight, I don’t think he gained that much. He’s always looked slender to me. What weight he gained could have been contributed to the Paxil that he publicly admitted to taking during 2006. He recently stated that he as been off the Paxil for a few months now. He is one fine-lookin’ man, and thanks so much, Jeanne, for mentioning it.
I was in the audience last night in South Bend, Indiana, and the man is magnificent.
Man oh man I do love Clay! I really wish I could be at one of his Christmas concerts this year. Maybe next time he’ll come to California during his Christmas tour. I would definitely be there. He does look good, I like him a little on the thin side. Also, he sounds awsome. But he always does.
I love this song that Clay sings. Fell in love with it during the AI Christmas special. Then when he put it on his album, and now has done it at every tour. To me it is one of the highlights of the show. Yes, Clay looks great here! Although, Inever thought there was anything wrong with how he looked this summer. The guy put on some pounds. But, have you ever seen how skinny he was a few years ago? He needed a little extra weight on them bones. Yes, he has slimed down a bit, and think he still looks great!
Wow!!!! I LOVE the way he performed that song and I love the way he looks. HUGE THUD!!!!
This has practically become his Christmas tour signature song as he closes every show with it on all 4 Christmas tours. Yet he manages to change it up a little each year to make it still as wonderful as ever. As to the weight, I think he had gained “a few pounds” but nothing like the tabloids and idiots tried to make out that he had. For someone with his thin frame, 10 pounds can tend to look drastic, but if you think he looks slimmed down here, you should him do the encore with the jacket off — it really shows how slender he is — not much different from 4 years ago when he left the AI show. Matter of fact, the other suit coat he wears during this tour (the long black one) is from his first Christmas tour in 2004 — and still fits beautifully.
Well,
Just got back in town about two hours ago, back here in California from my to New-York and New Jersey.
As I posted earlier, I decided to make a the best of a business trip with my family this week and treated them all to a night out on the town Thursday, to see Clay in New Brunswick at the State Theatre.
There were 11 of us! Only two of us were Clay fans, the rest of the family and significant others remember Clay from AI, but had not followed him at all since then.
As everyone else who attended the New Brunswick concert has attested to, Clay was not only stunning in looks but in voice as well!
Ok, so our evening started with seven members of the party meeting me at my hotel room in New York. I had previously arranged for us to have the night out in style! So a fourteen passenger, beautiful, white, stretch limosine pick us all up from the hotel!
The limosine then took us into Boundbrook New Jersey, where we picked up the remaining three members of our party. From there we went to Bridgewater New Jersey, had a wonderful Italian dinner at a place called La Catena and from there the limosine took us to the New Brunswick State Theatre!
What I must share is that the entire time we were in the limosine the group was treated to seeing the Juke Box tour in it’s entirety AND the Pala, Cal concert! I made sure the limosine had a DVD player and I brought along several of his concerts on DVD.
THEY LOVED both concerts!!! They loved Clay’s amazing voice, his sense of humor and entertaining stage presence!!
The Holiday concert at the State Theatre was amazing! Clay, Quiana and Angela were just brilliant and Clay outdid himself! The little “snafu” everyone has been cheering about was taken by the group as humorous and endearing!
Everyone single person in our group LOVED HIM!!
One of my brothers asked me twice for the website were he could download and watch the concerts and so I gave him Clack Unlimited.
At the end of the evening what was so amusing was that when we came out of the Theatre ( it never dawned on me this would happen!)(DUH!), but there were a swarm of fans buzzing around and hanging close to our limosine! I completely forgot that some unknowing fans might have thought it was for Clay or some other famous person!
I felt sorry for those fans! All they got to see were a bunch of dressed up unknowns getting into the limo!!
As an early Christmas gift for the entire group, each family group received a gift copy of AIW, MCWL and ATDW along with my signature Clay Holiday greeting card! They all just loved their gifts!
The night was a complete success! For the entire ride back in the limosine the talk was about Clay, his magnificent voice, Quiana and Angela, the classiness and beauty of the concert, where Clay’s career could go and the lack of good music in the industry!
WOW!!
NINE new Clay fans in one night!!
WOO HOO!!!
