In one of the most emotional moments in recent holiday music specials, country superstar Carrie Underwood teamed up with her son Isaiah Fisher for a touching rendition of the Christmas classic “Little Drummer Boy.” Featured in her holiday special on HBO Max, the video has gone viral, amassing over 3.2 million views on YouTube and touching hearts around the world.

A Heartfelt Duet That Captivated Audiences
Isaiah Fisher, just five years old at the time, surprised audiences with his tender and sincere voice. Singing alongside his Grammy-winning mom, Isaiah delivered his part with so much emotion that many fans commented he was “the soul of the entire song.” Carrie later shared that the moment was deeply personal for her, saying, “Watching my son worship God through music was the greatest Christmas gift.”
Part of the Holiday Album My Gift
This performance is featured on Carrie Underwood’s holiday album My Gift, released in late 2020. The album includes timeless Christmas songs as well as original tracks, but the duet with Isaiah stands out for its authenticity and emotional depth.
A Timeless Holiday Video
Although released four years ago, the video—just over three minutes long—continues to draw views each holiday season. It consistently appears on YouTube, TikTok, and Facebook holiday playlists, bringing joy and emotion to new generations of viewers every year.
A Message of Faith, Love, and Family
At a time when the world faced uncertainty, this performance reminded many of the importance of faith, family, and unity. “Little Drummer Boy” as performed by Carrie and Isaiah isn’t just another Christmas cover—it’s a symbol of a mother’s love, a child’s faith, and the hope the holiday season brings.
